[Classes 108(ii) and 108(iii)] In a vehicle suspension. a torsionally pre-stressed spring member is provided, having relatively moveable connections with the sprung and upsprung masses of the vehicle, and arranged so that as the vehicle load is increased to the maximum the torsion in the spring member is reduced to zero. In the examples described, the spring member in question is a rubber bushed shackle connecting the main suspension to the frame, deflection of the shackle on maximum load reducing the pre-stressed rubber bushing to zero stress. Fig. 1 shows a driving axle 11 terminating in two gear casings 32 which are connected by a tie rod 33. Rotatably mounted on each end of the tie rod is the end 34 of a longitudinally disposed torsion spring, to which is rigidly secured the adjustable arm 45, whose other end is attached to the rubber-bushed shackle 12, the other side of the shackle being mounted on the vehicle frame. The angular adjustment in the arm 45 permits adjustment of the main torsion spring 34. Fig. 5 shows the spring shackle 12 in its unstressed position. Rubber is moulded in situ round the upper and lower arms 13, 14 of the shackle, preferably so that a thin layer of rubber extends between the flanges of the split housings 19, 20, the flanges on half housing of each pair being reinforced by metal strips 23. In the unstressed position the plane of the flanges of the two housings are parallel, but, as shown in Fig. 1, when the shackle is bolted in position, the rubber in the upper housing in particular is pre-stressed in such a direction that as the axle is depressed with increasing load, the torsion in the shackle is reduced. By this means the maximum torsion to which the shackle will be subjected is known, viz. that at no vehicle load, and the shackles cannot be stressed beyond their safe limit. In another example, Fig. 7, the main suspension spring is shown as a rubber torsion spring 116 secured across the axle 112, the ends of the inner member of the torsion spring 116 being connected rigidly to arms 158 which are connected to the chassis through prestressed rubber-bushed shackles 124. shown in cross-section in Fig. 8. The upper and lower sides of the shackle are formed with a number of flanges 132 which alternate with annular fins 138 formed inside the metal housing 134, the rubber being moulded in situ as before. This arrangement resists side thrusts on the shackles. In a further modification, Figs. 13 and 14, the arm 158 of Fig. 7 is replaced by an arm 1,000 which is secured to the main torsion spring 120 by a vernier adjustment compricing a perforated disc fast with the spring member and a second perforated annular member integral with the arm, bolts being passed though the two perforated members in the desired position. The arm 1,000 terminates in a yoke 1,200 to which is secured the inner member 1,060 of a rubber torsion mounting, the outer member 1,020 of which is secured to the vehicle frame. The inner and outer members, which are provided with flanges and annular ribs respectively, as before, are eccentrically arranged, the rubber being subjected to compression in addition to a reduction of the pre-arranged torsion, when the vehicle load increases and the arm 1,000 rotates.

[Classes 108 (ii) and 108 (iii)] A vehicle spring-suspension for connecting a ground-engaging wheel and associated wheelsupported structure to a body-carrying frame which extends laterally outwardly of the wheel, comprises a torsion spring assembly and a system of laterally-extending force-transmitting links, the suspension being connected to the frame closely adjacent the outer side edge of the latter and to the wheel-supported structure, inwardly of the wheel. In the arrangement according to Fig. 1, front and rear axles 12 and 13 are each connected to a vehicle frame 11 through torsion spring suspensions 16, 17 and 18, 19 respectively. Each of the suspensions 16-19 comprises a rubber torsion spring 34 having an outer tubular member 42, Fig. 8, rigidly mounted on a wheel axle longitudinally of the vehicle frame and an inner tube or rod 43 which projects from each end of the tube 42 and which is connected through a linkage to a respective pair of tubular framemembers 21, 22; 27, 28; 29, 31; 32, 33. Rubber or the like sleeves 44 and 45 are bonded to the rod 43 and to a metal liner 46, integral with and within the tube 42. The liner 46 is preferably sectionalized, the centre section serving as a spacer for the sleeves 44, 45. A boss 52 having an arm 53 at right angles to the rod 43 is mounted non-rotatably on a splined portion 51 at each end of the rod 43 and is embraced by friction-tight bosses 54, 55 integral with legs 56, 57 of a bifurcated lever 58 which is thus movable angularly, relative to rod 43. An upper web portion 63, Fig. 9, on the lever 58 carries an adjustable stop bolt 65 which co-operates with the arm 53 whereby the torsion spring may be pre-loaded and the height of the vehicle frame above the ground adjusted. The free end of lever 58 is pivotally connected to one end of a link 71 comprising spaced parallel plates 72, 73 which are pivotally mounted on a boss 75 of a bracket 76 integral with one of the frame members 21-33. A flat 79 on the underside of bracket 76 cooperates with a stop-bar 81 rigidly secured to the lower end of link 71. An inwardly projecting lip 83 of the bracket 76 supports a double-acting shock-absorber, preferably of the vane type, which is pivotally connected through a link 88 to a lip 91 projecting from and integral with boss 55. Upward deflection of the suspension is limited by rubber pads (Fig. 5, not shown). In a modification (Figs. 12 and 13, not shown), the lever 58 is connected through a link to the corresponding end of a similar lever associated with a second torsion spring having'an outer member rigidly mounted on the outer side edge of the vehicle frame. The invention may be applied to independent wheel suspensions or vehicles employing swing- ing half axles.

    • 627,381. Cylinders, valves and valve-gear. TWIN COACH CO. July 29, 1947, No. 20486. Convention date, Oct. 2, 1945. [Classes 7 (ii), 7 (iii) and 7 (vi)] In a two-stroke engine cylinder having inlet and exhaust ports 60, 64 at the same level, the exhaust ports are opened and the inlet ports are closed by the piston, but the exhaust ports are closed by a valve 20 and the inlet ports are opened by a valve 22. Rotary valves are shown comprising a hollow inlet valve supplied at one end, and an exhaust valve having a transverse passage and a cam for operating a fuel injector 91. By removing a plate 82 the inlet valve may be replaced by a valve similar to the exhaust valve. The valves are rotated in opposite directions at crankshaft speed by spur gearing at either end of the engine, whereby their direction of rotation may be reversed. Balance weights are provided on the ends of the valve shafts. A crescent-shaped piston head 96 which deflects the charge, enters the clearance space 50, and produces a compact combustion chamber adjacent the fuel injector 91. Cylinder liners are supported on flanges À26 so that the upper parts 28 are exposed to the cooling water flowing to the head jackets by passages 56. They are retained by screwed pins 32 and a space 46 allows for expansion. Specification 615,045 is referred to.
