Composite material spring modules (16) have a fiber reinforced composite material spring body with attachment fittings (34, 36) integrally formed about the spring body. The attachment fittings are molded of a flexible material which dynamically responds to changes in the shape of the spring body upon deflection. Integral formation of the fittings with the spring body provides a unified single piece module which is readily attachable to any structure where spring support is desired. In one embodiment, a mounting foot (37) is configured for mounting of the spring module directly to a planar surface of a supporting frame member by a fastener, or alternatively configured to engage with a frame member without use of a fastener. The composite material spring modules exhibit the properties of stiffness and return to uncompressed state from total depth deflection without set. |
