ABSTRACT:
An elastomeric resilient ring spring for use in an annular elastomeric boot generally of a U-cup configuration having an exposed annular groove which is generally x-shaped, the ring spring being generally +-shaped including four lobes, first and second opposed lobes extending parallel to the plane of the ring spring and third and fourth opposed lobes extending perpendicular to the plane of the ring spring. The dimensions of the ring spring are approximately the same as those of the groove whereby rotation of the ring spring about its ring axis through an angle of 45.degree. permits mating of the ring spring into the groove in the boot. Such a ring spring may be molded in a conventional mold in a far simpler manner than conventional x-shaped ring springs.
