    摘要: A springless shock absorbing and suspension apparatus and method of operation are disclosed that use external adjustments to alter flow resistance through a valve block in the apparatus. The valve block may have throughholes and/or passageways that allow fluid to flow in the valve block. Cover or shim elements may be used relative to certain throughholes and/or passageways to restrict flow in one or both directions. In one example, adjusters may be deployed that vary the force applied to cover or shim elements that effect a change in flow resistance of the valve block. In another example, adjusters may be deployed that articulate or rotate disc rings elements relative to the valve block to modify the effective size of flow openings (e.g., throughholes and/or passageways) that effect a change in flow resistance of the valve block. Separate external adjusters may be used for compression and expansion operations.

    摘要: A damping device includes a housing defining a pressure chamber, containing a magnetorheological fluid. A rod is slideably coupled to the housing to adjust a length of the housing. A piston is attached to the rod and disposed within the pressure chamber. The piston is immersed within the magnetorheological fluid, and separates the pressure chamber into a first half and a second half. An electromagnet is disposed in magnetic contact with the magnetorheological fluid, and is operable to apply a magnetic field to the magnetorheological fluid to increase viscosity of the magnetorheological fluid to prevent movement of the rod relative to the housing. The magnetorheological fluid is free to flow through a fluid port in the piston, between a first half and a second half of the pressure chamber, in the absence of the magnetic field from the magnetic source to allow adjustment of the length.

    摘要: A wheel suspension apparatus for a vehicle of the strut type, comprising a hydraulic damper disposed between the body and a wheel of the vehicle and including an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder slidably fitted thereover to define a main hydraulic chamber; an auxiliary cylinder is slidably fitted over the outer peripheral surface of the outer cylinder to define an auxiliary hydraulic chamber therebetween in communication with the main chamber, said auxiliary cylinder is urged in one axial direction under the hydraulic pressure in said third hydraulic chamber. A suspension coil spring is disposed under compression between the auxiliary cylinder and the outer cylinder for resiliently biasing the former in the other axial direction. The apparatus affords a freedom in designing the coil spring particularly in respect of the disposition space, length and diameter thereof in accordance with specific conditions required. The apparatus further includes a vehicle-height adjusting valve for adjusting the length of the damper to a predetermined constant level.
