<p>FURNITURE SPRING ASSEMBLY HAVING FRAME SUPPORT A furniture spring assembly (10,10',10'') provides support for a torsion bar spring (16) between spaced frame members (12,14). An elongated support (44) of the spring assembly extends from a fishmouth torsion bar (22) at a frame mounted end (18) of the spring (16) to a foot (42) at the other spring end (38) and thence for connection to the other frame member (14). Each of three preferred embodiments of the elongated support preferably includes a helical spring (71) that provides the connection thereof to the frame member (14). One embodiment of the support (44) includes an elongated metal strip (72) having a first end (74) hooked to the fishmouth torsion bar (22) and having a second end (76) including an attachment flange (80) and an attachment loop (82) that are secured to the foot (42) of the second spring end. Another embodiment of the support (44) includes an elongated metal strip (83) having a first hooked end (84) that receives the fishmouth torsion bar (22) and a second end (86) that extends through the foot (42) of the second spring end (38) with an attachment flange (88) providing the securement. A third embodiment of the support (44) includes a wire connector (90) having a first end with a hook (98) that receives the fishmouth torsion bar (22) and a second end with terminal hooks (100) secured to the foot (42) of the second spring end (38) to cooperate with a second connector (96) that is also hooked thereto to provide the securement to the frame member (14).</p> |
