Abstract

See full text

Assembly comprising a spring in the form of a zig-zag strip of fibre reinforced plastics material with limbs (10-16) connected by reflex portions (17,22), wherein end limbs (10,16) of the spring are mounted at an attitude they would adopt when loaded if they were pin-jointed so as to be free to move as the spring is loaded so that over-stressing of the reflex portions (18,21) of the spring is thereby avoided when the spring is loaded. In modifications of the invention, a spring end limb (39) may be progressively engaged by a surface (42) of a mounting to be supported at a range of attitudes corresponding to a range of spring loads; or a spring mounting may be associated with pivotable members so that end limbs of the spring move arcuately therewith and change their relative attitude as if they were pin-jointed.
