ABSTRACT:
A vehicle shock absorber is provided and includes a cylindrical shaped housing rotatably mounted on a central sleeve on a shaft on a vehicle body. A shock absorber band which assumes a circular shape in the form of a leaf spring is disposed around the inside of the housing periphery. One end of the shock absorber leaf spring may be fixedly attached on the housing inner periphery; the other end of the shock absorber spring is connected to a flexible chain passing around a roller in the housing and connecting with a rotatable sleeve which has a cam surface about which the chain can be wound. An elongated steel leaf spring is connected by a flexible belt to both the outer periphery of the housing and to a wheel and axle means. The chain winding sleeve is rotated about its associated shaft for adjusting the tension on the belt for proper shock absorber cushioning effect. The cylindrical shaped housing is held on the supporting sleeve by an adjusting and locking nut.
