LAME DE RESSORT ET PROCEDE POUR LA FABRIQUER

摘要

A vehicle spring leaf has at least one of its opposite ends formed with closed eyes for connection to frame or shackle pivots. The spring leaf is slitted parallel to its length near the end and subjected to a deformation operation whereby an intermediate portion of the leaf is oppositely displaced with respect to the displacement of adjacent edge portions to provide opposed semi-cylindrical loops defining the eye. The deformation operation may occur either simultaneously with or subsequent to the slitting of the leaf.
