A spring plate, especially for a MacPherson strut unit, having an axial support surface for the final turn of a helical spring. The helical spring is centered by radial centering surfaces in the area of the circumferential contour of the final turn. The centering surface is divided into individual, partial centering surfaces, which come to rest against the circumferential contour of the helical spring.

Spring plate

A vibration damper assembly having a spring support. The spring support comprises a first support with a spring plate and a second support with a spring plate, whereby at least one spring plate is axially adjustable, so that the spring tension of a spring between the spring plates can be changed, the spring support also a comprising locking device which is active between the adjustable spring plate and the corresponding support, characterized by the fact that the locking device is loosened for the axial adjustment of the spring plate so that during the axial adjustment, the spring plate can be moved independently of the locking means from any desired position into another position without twisting, and the locking device is held in this position.
