Clamping devices for spring assemblies

摘要

A device for clamping together at least two leaves of a leaf spring assembly and a resilient plate member in superimposed interfacial contact comprises at least one clasp adapted to embrace the leaves and the resilient member. A closure plate or bar is secured to the free ends of the clasp to impose a clamping force on the members embraced by the clasp. The closure plate or bar is formed with a raised surface which co-operates with an adjacent surface of a member embraced by the clasp to permit angular movement of the clasp relative to the embraced members.
