<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent contacting with the ground surface when a rear part of a leaf spring tilts in the downward direction, even if the leaf spring breaks on the rear side of an intermediate part. <P>SOLUTION: This suspension device for suspending an axle 2 at the intermediate part of one leaf spring 5, includes a first restriction means for restricting downward tilting of a rear part of the leaf spring 5 to a shackle 6 when the leaf spring 5 breaks on the rear side of the intermediate part, and a second restriction means (engagement claw 13) for restricting pivoting of a predetermined angle or more toward the rear of the shackle 6. The first restriction means is constituted of a bush 12 having a projection 12b arranged in a connecting place between a rear end part of the leaf spring 5 and the shackle 6, integrally rotating with the rear end part of the leaf spring 5 and engaging with the shackle 6 in a predetermined pivoting position. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
