Abstract

An air spring is critical to improving the smoothness and the comfort of a vehicle, protecting a road and goods, and restricting overload. On the matching of the static rigidity characteristic of the air spring, people ignore the static rigidity adjustment which is required due to the difference between the rigidity of optional standard series of airbags and the rigidity required by specific vehicle models. The difficulty of dynamic rigidity adjustment is always that the static rigidity of the airbags is not matched. In a passive air suspension system, the static rigidity of the airbags which is not matched is an important cause for the serious lateral swinging of a vehicle in running. Existing dynamic rigidity adjustment is realized by connecting a main air chamber and an auxiliary air chamber and changing the pressure difference when air between the main air chamber and the auxiliary air chamber flows through the adjustment to a throttle port on a channel. The rigidity adjustment system does not change the volume of the air chambers when in adjustment, so that the difficulty of the rigidity adjustment is larger. The invention relates to the air spring which is developed for solving the problems. The air spring has adjustable static and dynamic rigidity, a simple structure and low cost, and is convenient and practical.
