Tool for mounting helicoidal suspension spring of motor vehicle, has maintenance rod provided with articulated handle, where articulated handle is connected to mechanism to release maintenance rod from tool

摘要

The tool has a compression unit for compressing a suspension spring, where a maintenance rod (40) is encased on the tool to support and apply reaction effort to maintain the compression of the suspension spring. The maintenance rod is provided with an articulated handle (42), where the articulated handle is connected to a mechanism to release the maintenance rod from the tool. The maintenance rod is provided with transversal slots (58). A bottom of each transversal slot is provided with a transversal sliding block (56). An independent claim is also included for a method for mounting a helicoidal suspension spring of a motor vehicle.
