In addition, the air suspension air circuit device is simple in structure and can reduce the number of valve bodies in the air suspension air circuit.

Further, referring to fig. 2, the apparatus further includes: the first pressure sensor P1 is located at the output end of the first gas storage portion 101 and is configured to detect a first pressure value at the output end of the first gas storage portion 101; the second pressure sensor P2 is located in the tank of the second gas storage part 102 and is used for detecting a second pressure value of the second gas storage part 102; the air compression device 103 is located on the main air pipe 104 between the second air storage portion 102 and the input end of the first air storage portion 101, and the air compression device 103 is configured to adjust the pressure of the first air storage portion 101 and the second air storage portion 102 in the air circuit air supplementing mode when the first pressure value is lower than a first preset value and/or the second pressure value is higher than a second preset value.
The air compression device 103 may compress and discharge the air flowing to the air compression device 103, and the air compression device 103 may be an air compressor, for example.
Specifically, when the first pressure value is lower than the first preset value, it indicates that the compressed gas in the first gas storage portion 101 is insufficient, so that the air spring 105 needs to be supplemented or inflated, and at this time, in the air circuit air supplementing mode, the air compression device 103 is started to compress the gas in the second gas storage portion 102 and then discharge the compressed gas to the first gas storage portion 101, thereby adjusting the pressure of the gas in the first gas storage portion 101. When the second pressure value is higher than the second preset value, it indicates that the gas in the second gas storage portion 102 is too much, so that the gas pressure in the second gas storage portion 102 is too high, and the gas pressure in the second gas storage portion 102 needs to be released, at this time, the air compression device 103 is started, and the gas in the second gas storage portion 102 is compressed and then discharged to the first gas storage portion 101, so as to regulate the pressure of the gas in the second gas storage portion 102. By controlling the air compression device 103 to be started only when the preset condition is met and adjusting the pressure of the gas in the first gas storage portion 101 and the second gas storage portion 102, the starting frequency of the air compression device can be effectively reduced, and therefore the service life of the air compression device is prolonged.

Specifically, the air supply and exhaust pipe 111 is connected to the air supply and exhaust port 112, and when the air suspension air path device is in an exhaust state, the first control switch V1, the second control switch V2 and the third control switch V3 are required to be opened, and the air in the main air path 104, the first air storage portion 101 and the second air storage portion 102 is exhausted to the outside, so that after the air in the air suspension air path device is exhausted, the air suspension air path device is overhauled. When the air suspension air path device is in the air supplementing state, the first control switch V1 and the second control switch V2 are required to be closed, and the third control switch V3 is required to be opened, so that external air flows into the main air path pipe 104 through the air supplementing and exhausting port 112 and the air supplementing and exhausting pipe 111. Under normal conditions, there is an unavoidable loss of gas in the air suspension gas circuit device, when the air compression device 103 compresses all the gas in the second gas storage portion 102 and pumps the compressed gas into the first gas storage portion 101, and when the first pressure value still does not meet the preset pressure value, the air suspension gas circuit device enters the air supplementing state, and controls the third control switch V3 to open, so that the external gas flows from the air supplementing and exhaust port 111 to the second gas storage portion 102 until the first pressure value meets the preset pressure value, and air supplementing is performed on the air suspension gas circuit device.

In the prior art, a plurality of one-way valves are needed to control the gas flow direction in the gas circuit, and the air suspension gas circuit in the embodiment can control the gas flow direction in the gas circuit by only adopting one-way valve F1, so that the gas circuit is simplified, and the problems of excessive valve body quantity and complex gas circuit structure in the prior art are solved.
