  • Patent number: 12291074
    Abstract: A spring link includes a link body which includes two side wall profiles which are parallel to one another at a distance and which are connected by a spring seat plate extending transversely from one side wall profile to the other side wall profile. Each side wall profile includes a side web having an outwardly directed upper collar section which extends in the longitudinal direction of the side web. The spring seat plate rests with a lateral longitudinal edge section on an upper collar section and is joined to the upper collar section. The side wall profiles of the link body are mirror-symmetrical to one another. The lower side of the link body opposite to the spring seat plate is open.

  • Patent number: 8814187
    Abstract: In a method of producing a transverse link for arrangement on a motor vehicle axle, a semifinished product is produced from an extrusion profile of light metal with at least three hollow chambers in side-by-side relationship. A top side and a bottom side of a middle one of the chambers is trimmed at ends thereof so that outer ones of the chambers form bearing arms which project beyond a base body. The middle chamber is formed with flanges which are bent and coupled with the base body. The bearing arms are bent and mounts for attachment are formed.
