ABSTRACT:
The improved suspension is adapted for use with a wheel or wheels supported on single or double axles.
The suspension comprises a mounting for the axle whereby the latter may move vertically, the mounting being connected to the vehicle frame and including a curved conduit in which a coil spring is disposed. The convolutions of the spring engage the inner wall surface of the curved conduit so that the coil spring is axially flexed to follow the curvature of the conduit. One end of the spring bears against the axle and the other spring end bears against abutment means which is adjustably disposed within an end of the curved conduit.
The construction above described may be used in a double axle suspension wherein a compression rod is disposed between facing movable abutment means, to provide an equalizing suspension.
