The working process of the shock absorber is as follows:
when the shock absorber is stretched, the connecting rod piston assembly moves upwards, the volume of the upper cavity of the working cavity is reduced, and oil in the upper cavity of the working cavity flows into the lower cavity of the working cavity through the recovery valve system; because of the existence of the connecting rod in the upper cavity of the working cavity, the oil flowing into the upper cavity of the working cavity is not enough to fill the increased volume of the lower cavity of the working cavity, and under the action of pressure difference, the oil in the oil storage cavity pushes away a bottom valve plate through a normal through hole of the bottom valve assembly and flows into the lower cavity of the working cavity; at this time, the pressure of the upper chamber of the working chamber is still higher than that of the oil storage chamber, so that the oil in the middle chamber flows into the oil storage chamber through the digital proportional valve.
When the shock absorber is compressed, the connecting rod piston assembly moves downwards, the volume of the lower cavity of the working cavity is reduced, oil in the lower cavity of the working cavity flows into the upper cavity of the working cavity, the increased volume of the upper cavity of the working cavity is smaller than the reduced volume of the lower cavity of the working cavity due to the existence of the connecting rod in the upper cavity of the working cavity, a part of oil pushes a bottom valve plate of the bottom valve assembly to flow into the oil storage cavity, at the moment, the pressure of the upper cavity of the working cavity is still larger than that of the oil storage cavity, and the oil in the middle cavity flows to the oil.
When the digital proportional valve is in a power-off state of the coil assembly, the armature push rod assembly is positioned above the first connecting hole, and the first oil way is in a communicating state; when the coil assembly is electrified, the armature push rod assembly is pushed to move towards the first connecting hole, the first connecting hole is blocked, and the first oil way is blocked. The control and working process is as follows:
when the coil assembly is powered off, the armature push rod assembly is controlled to be separated from the first connecting hole under the action of the pilot valve spring, the first oil way is in a connected state at the moment, the second oil way is in a disconnected state under the action of the return spring and the main valve core, oil flows in the first oil way at the moment, and the flow area of the first oil way is the throttle area of the valve at the moment.
When the coil component is electrified, the input signal is controlled by the controller, when the input PWM signal is at a high level, the coil component generates electromagnetic force to push the armature push rod component to move towards the main valve assembly, the armature push rod component blocks the first connecting hole, and the first oil way is disconnected; at the moment, the oil pressure in the second channel rises, the oil pushes the main valve core away under the action of the pressure, the second oil way is opened, the oil flows through the second oil way, and the flow area of the second oil way is the flow throttling area of the proportional valve. When the input PWM signal is low level, the coil component is not electrified, the electromagnetic force disappears, the armature push rod component is far away from the main valve assembly under the action of the pilot valve spring, at the moment, the first oil way is communicated again, the oil pressure in the second channel is reduced, and the main valve core cuts off the second oil way under the action of the reset spring.
