l- 7 This invention relates to improvements in leaf spring structures.
In conventional leaf spring construction the leaf spring sections are generally connected together by means of a central bolt. This bolt is under constant shear stresses. To obviate this the leaf springs are provided with improved means to prevent relative movement of the springs at the time of flexure, at the bolt location, in non-interfering relation with proper flexing along the lengths of the springs beyond the bolt location.
A further object'of this invention is the pro vision of an improved Spring construction having means to prevent turning movement of the leaf spring sections without interfering with proper longitudinal fiexure as an incident of use of the spring construction.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description.
In the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification and wherein similar reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of one of the improved leaf sections of the spring structure.
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the spring section.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary longitudinal cross sectional view taken through the central location of one of its leaf spring sections.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary cross sectional view showing the assemblage of the sections of the leaf spring and their mounting upon an axle.
In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown only a preferred embodiment of the invention, the letter A may generally designate the leaf sprin construction. I may include a plurality of laminated leaf sections B connected centrally of their ends by means of a bolt C and having conventional'saddle or clamping means E to secure the leaf spring structure centrally of its ends to an axle or similar construction D.
The improved means to prevent turning movement of the leaf sections B and to lock them together at their center locations so that there will be no shear upon the bolt C, preferably consists of providing each section B at its central location with depending anchoring studs 20 on the convex under surfacing thereof and complementary sockets 2| thereabove inwardly from the concaved side of the section B. This is pref- .erably done by means of die stamping the struc- 2 Claims. (Cl. 267--52) ture. The sockets 2| have rounded bottom sur-- faces and sloping side walls 23 which diverge to wards the concaved surface 25 of the sections B. Stamping of the sockets is such that the material forming the bosses or lugs 20 will be extruded upon the convex surfacing 21; the wall 28 annularly connecting the boss or projection 20 being sufliciently thick to protect the lug against shearing action. It is to be noted that the sockets 2| extend through'substantially the entire normal thickness of the body portion of the leaf spring and may project just slightly into the boss 20 as shown in Figure 3 and elsewhere, altho this structure may vary as desired. The die stamping may be accomplished either cold or hot. The lugs and their sockets are located close to and at each side of the bolt opening 30. In the versely across the width of the sections.
Upon the axle D the sections of the leaf spring construction are clamped by means of U-bolts E. It is to be noted that the bosses 20 are nested in the sockets of the adjacent lowermost spring section in vertical axial alignment close to the bolt 0 and preferably the clamping clips or bolts B are located directly adjacent to or at the outer sides of the nested lugs. The sockets 2| and lugs or bosses 20 are formed on a very small surface of the leaf spring so as not to weaken the structure thereof, and they do not extend trans- The in the openings 2| and during flexure of the spring the lugs do not slide relative 'to the socket surfacing.
It is quite apparent from the foregoing that the leaf spring sections will be prevented from relative turning movement and they hold the position of the leaf spring between the nested sockets with respect to the bolt C so that the spring sections do not have relative movement at the bolt C and thus shearing action upon the bolt is prevented.
It is to be noted that the axle top surface is provided with sockets to receive the bosses of the lowermost leaf of the spring construction.
Various changes in the shape, size and arrangement of parts may be made to the form of invention herein shown and described without departing from the spirit of the invention of the scope of the following claims.
I claim:
1. In a spring construction the combination of a plurality of leaf sections, a bolt extending through all of said sections and connecting said sections together centrally between the ends thereof, each of said spring sections closely adjacent to said bolt and at each side thereof at the longitudinal center line of the section being provided with an indentation upon one surface and a projecting boss upon the opposite surface with the bosses of one section fitting into the indentations of an adjacent section'whereby to relatively connect said sections preventing relative longitudinal movement of said sections to obviate turning movement at the location of said bolt and against shear action upon said bolt.
2. In a leaf spring construction the combination of a plurality of elongated leaf spring sections, each being provided with a transverse opening centrally between the ends thereof, a bolt releasably extended thru all of said openings and clamping said leaf spring sections together, each of said spring sections closely adjacent to said bolt and at each side thereof at the longitu dinal center line of the section being provided with an imperforate socket upon one surface and a directly opposed imperforate projecting boss upon the opposite surface, said leaf spring sections being assembled so that the bosses of one leaf spring section interfit into the sockets of the adjacent spring leaf section whereby to relatively connect said sections against turning upon the bolt as an axis and to prevent shear action upon said bolt as an incident of relative longitudinal sliding of said sections, and U-shaped bolts straddling and clamping the sections together immediately adjacent to but slightly outwardly beyond said bosses and sockets at each side of the first mentioned bolt.
