LEAF SPRING TYPE SUSPENSION

摘要

Objective:;The strength of a U bolt sheet 60 is raised while suppressing a weight rise and a cost rise.;Means for Solution:;A connecting pin 71 which connects a lower connecting portion 22 of a shock absorber 20 therewith is formed in a U bolt sheet 60. This connecting pin 71 is formed so that its axis Lpin passed between axes La and Lb of bolt portions 51a and 51b of a U bolt 50. Thereby, the lower connecting portion 22 of the shock absorber 20 can be supported with a doubly-supported-beam structure of the U bolt sheet 60 which uses the bolt portions 51a and 51b as fixed ends.

主权项

1. A leaf spring type suspension which comprises a leaf spring supporting an axle housing and a shock absorber attenuating a relative motion between a vehicle body and said axle housing, and
U bolts are respectively disposed on both sides of said leaf spring in a width direction of the vehicle body at a location where said leaf spring and said axle housing intersect in a planar view so as to straddle said axle housing in a front-and-rear direction of the vehicle body, and the ends of two parallel bolt portions which each U bolt has are inserted into bolt insertion holes of a U bolt sheet and nuts are screwed at said ends and thereby said axle housing and said leaf spring are compressed with a pair of said U bolts and said U bolt sheet, and said axle housing is fixed to said leaf spring, wherein: an upper end of said shock absorber is connected with the vehicle body and an lower end thereof is connected with said U bolt sheet, and said U bolt sheet is connected with said shock absorber through a connecting shaft extending from said U bolt sheet in a width direction of the vehicle body, and the axis of said connecting shaft passes between the axes of said two bolt portions which each of said pair of said U bolts has.
