Reinforced elastomeric spring

An elastomeric spring (10) comprises a body (11) of elastomeric material which extends between a pair of opposed end regions (12, 13) whereby compression forces acting in a first direction (16) on said end regions are resisted by compression of the elastomeric body, the body (11) of elastomeric material being of a substantially symmetrical shape as considered in cross section about a major axis (16) of the spring extending in said first direction, and substantially hollow in the vicinity of at least one (13) of said end regions, said body (11) of elastomeric material being of progressively increasing external cross-sectional dimension over a first part (21) of the length of the body extending from a first (32) of said end regions and of progressively decreasing external cross-sectional dimension over a second part (22) of the length of the body extending to a second (13) of said end regions, a substantially inextensible reinforcement member (17) embedded in and bonded to said body (11) ...

VEHICLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM

A vehicle suspension incorporates suspension units (46-48) associated with respective vehicle wheels and selectively controllable to vary the ride height of the vehicle, vehicle speed sensing means, height sensing means responsive to departure of the ride height from a predetermined height datum which is a function of the vehicle speed and to provide a signal related thereto to control movement of at least one suspension unit thereby to tend to move at least a part of the vehicle to said predetermined height datum and timer means whereby the movement of a suspension unit in response to a signal from a height sensor is inhibited until a signal of at least a predetermined magnitude has persisted for at least a prescribed part of a prescribed period of time.

ELASTOMERIC MOUNTING

An elastomeric mounting comprises a body of elastomeric material having end zones the surfaces of which are bonded to respective confronting surfaces of a pair of rigid end members for compression therebetween, at least a first of said rigid end members (32) extending radially outwardly from a longitudinal compression axis (19) of the mounting to lie beyond the bonded interface (35), said first rigid end member having outwards of the bonded interface an abutment face (34) which is contacted by the elastomeric body when subject to compression loading, and a discontinuity being defined by the first rigid end member whereby the interface and abutment face depart from a wholly co-planar form.
