Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
         [0001]    I. Field of the Invention  
           [0002]    This invention relates generally to a spring enhancer and, more specifically, to a spring enhancer that installs in the space of a spring, especially for the springs of shock absorbers of automobiles or any spring, such as beds, elevators, mechanical equipments. The present invention can reduce the deformation when the springs are compressed, such effect can increase the coefficient and loading of the springs, and improve the over-leaning condition when automobiles make turn due to springs deformation.  
           [0003]    II. Description of the Prior Art  
           [0004]    Heretofore, it is known that most of the spring applications such as: beds, elevators, and mechanical field under long-term heavy impact will cause deformation, lose original spring function; especially, the shock absorbs applied in automobiles, the springs absorb vibration by deformation while automobiles are moving, therefore in the spring technology field, the shock absorbers not only have to endure heavy impact but also reduce the deformation under heavy impact, most of all, not to cause over-leaning when the automobiles make turn by the deformation of springs.  
           [0005]    Some drivers might re-equip their shock absorbers to improve the over-leaning condition, the most common way is to replace the springs with less deformation types; the re-equipment is very costly, the original shock absorbers must be dismantled completely for new springs, that is very tedious and expensive, the replaced springs will be obsolete and waste.  
         SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
         [0006]    It is therefore a primary object of the invention to provide a spring enhancer to increase the hardness and reduce the deformation of the springs.  
           [0007]    In order to achieve the objective set forth, a spring enhancer in accordance with the present invention comprises a body installed between the space of the springs; the present invention is an extra device without changing any original structure and is directly installed onto the original springs, such scheme is simple in structure and easy to install, not only solve the tedious and high cost to re-equip the shock absorbers of automobiles and also improve the over-leaning condition due to the deformation of springs.
