Study on the Influence of the Shape of Leaf Spring on the Stress and the Kinematic Characteristics

Abstract

This paper is based on a novel shape of asymmetric few-leaf spring, which is used in the traditional parabolic leaf spring. By means of experiments and finite element method,we compared the stressdistribution and kinematic characteristics of the leaf spring before and after the shape change. Analysis results show that under the conditions of same stiffness and hard point layout, especially under braking conditions, kinematic characteristics of the few-leaf spring can be optimized by changing its shape, and the stress distribution conforms to the stress design principle of parabolic leaf spring.
