The lever is shaped in such a way so that when you close it, it compresses inwards by approximately 1.5/2mm. Which may not sound much, but it takes up the slack and holds your wheel in the dropout securely. The skewers have two little springs. If we look closely, you can see that they are shaped in a certain way, almost cone-shaped. They are positioned on either side of the hub axle and held in place on the spindle of the QR. Now the purpose of these little springs is to keep the skewer in place so that you can insert a wheel without having to centre the skewer by hand.
