  • Patent number: 11731474
    Abstract: 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.

  • Patent number: 11338636
    Abstract: An X-shaped spring for a transportation vehicle wheel suspension system having, per wheel side, a first leaf spring and a second leaf spring made from fiber-reinforced arranged to lie above one another and combined at a respective first end on a first fastening device for transportation vehicle body-side support, wherein the first leaf spring has a second fastening device at its second end for wheel-side support, and the second leaf spring is supported at its second end on the transportation vehicle body side. Towards its second end, the second leaf spring is an arc section curved away from the first leaf spring.
