Parabolic springs consist of one or more leaves. The leaves touch only in the middle, where they are fixed to the axle and at the outer ends, where they are fixed to the vehicle. They do not touch each other in between those two points as they do with conventional leaf springs. Each leaf represents a complete spring in itself and will act as the same.To enable this, the leaf is tapered, from centre to the outer end. This parabolic rolling process means that every centimetre (or inch) the thickness of the leaf decreases in an amount that relates to the square function of its length.
