INDEPENDENT STRUT TYPE SUSPENSION ASSEMBLIES FOR VEHICLES Abstract of the Disclosure An independent strut type suspension assembly for a vehicle including a hydraulic telescopic damper having a housing to the lower end of which is secured a wheel carrier for a road wheel of the vehicle. A lower transverse pivotal guide member is articulated to the wheel carrier and to part of the body of the vehicle. A piston rod of the damper projects from the housing and extends through an aperture in the vehicle body, and the upper end portion of the piston rod is rigidly connected to connector means including a bell-shaped member the open end portion which has a resilient connection, in the form of an annular rubber member, to the vehicle body. A helical wheel-suspension spring surrounds the damper, with the lower end of the spring seated on the damper housing. To facilitate disassembly of the damper, even when the wheel is loaded, a releasable connection is provided for at least a part of the bell-shaped member, and provides on release thereof an opening permitting removal of parts of the damper through the opening, the upper end of the wheel-suspension spring being seated externally of such parts as have to be removed for disassembly of the damper. To provide the releasable connection, the bell-shaped member may be of two-part construction, for example with a bayonet connection between the two parts. Alternatively, the annular rubber member may be retained by a releasable apertured clamp plate, for example secured by screws. -1-
