A suspension for a vehicle may include: a center leaf spring; side leaf springs respectively installed on opposing sides of the center leaf spring; and mounting brackets configured to connect the center leaf spring and the side leaf springs, respectively, and to support the center leaf spring to be movable in a longitudinal direction.

A suspension for a vehicle may include: a center leaf spring; side leaf springs respectively installed on opposing sides of the center leaf spring; mounting brackets configured to connect the center leaf spring and the side leaf springs, respectively; and damper bushes mounted in the mounting brackets, respectively, and configured to absorb shock.

A rubber bush with an inner part (2) which extends in an axial direction (x), an outer sleeve (3) which surrounds the inner part (2) at a spacing and comprises two half shells (4, 5) which are configured as identical parts, and a rubber body (6) which is arranged between the inner part (2) and the outer sleeve (3), wherein the half shells (3, 4) are connected to the inner part (2) by the rubber body (6) and, at their circumferential-side ends which face one another, have projections (7, 8) and depressions (9, 10), into which the projections (7, 8) are insertable.

A leaf spring bearing for a vehicle with a transverse leaf spring. The leaf spring bearing includes an upper bearing block and a lower bearing block between which a portion of the transverse leaf spring can be interposed. Each bearing block is formed at least partially of elastic material and comprises an upper support surface and a lower support surface. At least one of the upper and lower bearing blocks has a bearing core and an insert positioned in the elastic material between the upper and lower support surfaces so as to define three layers of the elastic material within the at least one bearing block. At least one of the upper and lower bearing blocks has two support plates arranged either outside the elastic material or at least partially surrounded by the elastic material in the area of the upper and lower support surfaces of the bearing block.

A leaf spring bearing for supporting a leaf spring against a transportation vehicle body having a body-side coupling portion and at least one elastomer portion for compensating displacements transverse to the supporting direction. A centering apparatus for interlockingly engaging with a vehicle-body-side counter-contour is provided on the coupling portion. The centering apparatus on the coupling portion guides the coupling portion of the leaf spring bearing in the event of deviations from a target contact position on the transportation vehicle body transverse to the supporting direction, toward the target contact position. Also disclosed is a transportation vehicle wheel suspension having the disclosed leaf spring bearing and an assembly method.

An improved shock isolating mounting comprising at least three substantially U-shaped leaf spring members, each leaf spring member comprising at least two leafs arranged to define a space therebetween. In one arrangement, the respective at least three substantially U-shaped leaf spring members are arranged in an array having a substantially equal angular spacing between adjacent spring members.
