ABSTRACT:
A one-piece cast suspension mounting spring pocket having a circular, radially contoured disk portion and having a plurality of flanges is disclosed. The disk portion serves as a spring pocket and prevents a spring from radial movement. The flanges are parallel to and spaced from one another, and are generally perpendicular to the disk portion of the one-piece cast member. One or more of the flanges intersects a frusto-conical formation which is radially centered in the disk portion, the intersecting flange conforming to and bowing with the frusto-conical formation. The structural integrity of the one-piece cast spring pocket is improved when compared to the currently produced multi-piece spring pockets by having the flange intersect the frusto-conical section.
