Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like or similar reference numerals refer to like or similar elements or elements having like or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the utility model.
The valve structure of shock absorber 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model is described below with reference to fig. 1 to 11 and fig. 22 to 28.
As shown in fig. 1 to 11, the shock absorber 100 may include: the valve comprises a shell 10, a valve body assembly 30 and a valve structure, wherein the shell 10 defines a containing space 11, a medium is arranged in the containing space 11, the medium is flowable medium, and the medium can flow in the containing space 11. As some alternative embodiments of the application, the medium may be oil. As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the medium may be a gas-liquid mixed medium, the gas may be an inert gas, or the gas may be nitrogen.
The valve body assembly 30 divides the accommodating space 11 into a compression space 111 and a restoration space 112, wherein an outer sidewall of the valve body assembly 30 may be in sealing fit with an inner sidewall of the housing 10 (i.e., a sidewall forming the accommodating space 11) to divide the accommodating space 11 into the compression space 111 and the restoration space 112, specifically, a space located at one side of the valve body assembly 30 is the compression space 111, a space located at an opposite side of the valve body assembly 30 is the restoration space 112, and the valve structure is located at the restoration space 112. The valve structure and the valve body assembly 30 can together define a first medium flow space 35, the valve structure comprises an overflow valve body 40, a first medium channel 201 is formed between the overflow valve body 40 and the valve body assembly 30, and medium can flow through the first medium channel 201.
Valve body assembly 30 has medium passage 31, compression space 111 selectively communicates with restoring space 112 through medium passage 31, the medium of compression space 111 may flow into restoring space 112 through medium passage 31, or the medium of compression space 111 may flow into restoring space 112 through medium passage 31 and first medium passage 201 (when first medium passage 201 is opened), the medium of restoring space 112 may flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31, or the medium of restoring space 112 may flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31 and first medium passage 201 (when first medium passage 201 is opened).
The first medium circulation space 35 is adapted to communicate with the medium passage 31 of the valve body assembly 30, that is, the medium can flow into the first medium circulation space 35 during the flow of the medium through the medium passage 31, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can be in contact with the overflow valve body 40, and when the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 accumulates to a certain amount, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can drive the overflow valve body 40 to move away from the valve body assembly 30 to adjust the opening degree of the first medium passage 201. Specifically, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can drive the overflow valve body 40 to move away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201.
It will be appreciated that the damping of shock absorber 100 is relatively large when first medium passage 201 is closed or open is reduced, and that the damping of shock absorber 100 is relatively small when first medium passage 201 is open or open is increased. By making the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 able to drive the overflow valve body 40 to move to open the first medium channel 201 or increase the opening of the first medium channel 201, the damping of the shock absorber 100 can be changed, for example, the damping of the shock absorber 100 can be changed linearly, so that the use effect of the shock absorber 100 is improved, and the design of the valve structure can be reasonable.
Therefore, the valve structure and the valve body assembly 30 of the shock absorber 100 together define the first medium circulation space 35, and the overflow valve body 40 and the valve body assembly 30 form the first medium channel 201 therebetween, when the medium flowing into the first medium circulation space 35 through the medium channel 31 of the valve body assembly 30 accumulates to a certain amount, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can drive the overflow valve body 40 to move away from the valve body assembly 30 to adjust the opening of the first medium channel 201, so that the damping of the shock absorber 100 is changed, and the use effect of the shock absorber 100 is improved.
As some embodiments of the present utility model, as shown in fig. 1 to 49, a shock absorber 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: housing 10 and valve body assembly 200. Valve body assembly 200 may include, among other things, a valve structure that may include an overflow valve body 40 and a mating valve 60, valve body assembly 30, and solenoid assembly 50, that is, valve body assembly 200 may include an overflow valve body 40 and a mating valve 60.
As shown in fig. 1 to 11, the housing 10 defines a receiving space 11, and the receiving space 11 has a medium therein, wherein the medium is a flowable medium and is capable of flowing in the receiving space 11. As some alternative embodiments of the application, the medium may be oil. As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the medium may be a gas-liquid mixed medium, the gas may be an inert gas, or the gas may be nitrogen.
The valve body assembly 30 divides the accommodating space 11 into a compression space 111 and a restoring space 112, wherein an outer sidewall of the valve body assembly 30 may be in sealing fit with an inner sidewall of the housing 10 (i.e., a sidewall forming the accommodating space 11) to divide the accommodating space 11 into the compression space 111 and the restoring space 112, specifically, a space located at one side of the valve body assembly 30 is the compression space 111, and a space located at the opposite side of the valve body assembly 30 is the restoring space 112. Both the overflow valve body 40 and the electromagnetic assembly 50 are positioned in the restoring space 112, and the overflow valve body 40 is positioned between the electromagnetic assembly 50 and the valve body assembly 30, that is, the overflow valve body 40 is positioned at a side of the electromagnetic assembly 50 near the valve body assembly 30, and a first medium passage 201 is formed between the overflow valve body 40 and the valve body assembly 30, through which a medium can flow through the first medium passage 201.
Solenoid assembly 50 is adapted to drive spill valve member 40 toward valve member 30 to adjust the opening of first media passageway 201. It should be noted that, when the electromagnetic assembly 50 is energized, a magnetic force is generated to make the two magnetic members generate a force that attracts each other, so that the two magnetic members move close to each other. By utilizing this principle, the relief valve body 40 may be driven to move closer to the valve body assembly 30 by the movement of the magnetic member. For example, overflow valve body 40 may be positioned between two magnetic elements that move toward each other upon energization of electromagnetic assembly 50 to move overflow valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30. For another example, two magnetic elements are provided as the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element, the overflow valve body 40 can be arranged in the first magnetic element, then the overflow valve body 40 can pass through the first magnetic element through a driving rod or other structures, two ends of the driving rod or other structures are respectively abutted against the overflow valve body 40 and the second magnetic element, the first magnetic element is fixed relative to the second magnetic element, after the electromagnetic assembly 50 is electrified, the second magnetic element moves towards the first magnetic element due to the fact that the first magnetic element is fixed relative to the second magnetic element, and the driving rod (or other structures) can be driven to move when the second magnetic element moves, so that the overflow valve body 40 can be driven to move close to the valve body assembly 30. It will be appreciated that in such an embodiment, the first magnetic element is a static magnetic element and the second magnetic element is a dynamic magnetic element, the first magnetic element may be a mating valve 60 described below and the second magnetic element may be a magnetic core 80 described below.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, solenoid assembly 50 may be capable of driving spill valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30 to decrease the opening of first media passage 201, or solenoid assembly 50 may be capable of driving spill valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30 to close first media passage 201. The electromagnetic assembly 50 drives the overflow valve body 40 to move close to the valve body assembly 30 to reduce the opening degree of the first medium channel 201 or close the first medium channel 201, and the product can be designed according to actual needs. For example, if it is desired that electromagnetic assembly 50 drive spill valve body 40 to move closer to valve body assembly 30 to reduce the opening of first media passageway 201 rather than to close first media passageway 201, it may be possible to design a limit in some configuration such that the magnetic element or spill valve body 40 cannot continue to move after a certain stroke, if it is desired that electromagnetic assembly 50 drive spill valve body 40 to move closer to valve body assembly 30 to close first media passageway 201, it may not be necessary to do so, when spill valve body 40 moves into contact with valve body assembly 30, first media passageway 201 may be closed, or it may be possible to design a drivable (also understood as adjustable) limit element to switch between reducing the opening of first media passageway 201 and closing first media passageway 201.
Valve body assembly 30 has a medium passage 31 through which compression space 111 selectively communicates with rebound space 112, and valve body assembly 200 is adapted to move within housing 10 in a first direction of shock absorber 100 (i.e., the X-direction shown in fig. 1) to vary the volumes of compression space 111 and rebound space 112. Specifically, when valve body assembly 200 moves in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the volume of compression space 111 decreases, the volume of recovery space 112 increases, the medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31, and when valve body assembly 200 moves in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward recovery space 112, the volume of recovery space 112 decreases, the volume of compression space 111 increases, and the medium in recovery space 112 can flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31.
In an embodiment in which solenoid assembly 50 is capable of driving spill valve member 40 to move closer to valve member assembly 30 to close first medium passage 201, when first medium passage 201 is closed, medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31, and medium in recovery space 112 can flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31. When the first medium passage 201 is opened, the medium in the compression space 111 can flow into the recovery space 112 through the medium passage 31 and the first medium passage 201, and the medium in the recovery space 112 can flow into the compression space 111 through the medium passage 31 and the first medium passage 201.
In an embodiment where solenoid assembly 50 is capable of driving spill valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30 to reduce the opening of first media passage 201, when solenoid assembly 50 is not in operation, media within compression space 111 may flow into recovery space 112 through media passageway 31 and first media passage 201, and media within recovery space 112 may flow into compression space 111 through media passageway 31 and first media passage 201. When electromagnetic assembly 50 is operated, the opening degree of first medium passage 201 is reduced, and the medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31 and reduced-opening first medium passage 201, and the medium in recovery space 112 can flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31 and reduced-opening first medium passage 201.
It will be appreciated that when the first medium passage 201 is closed or the opening degree is reduced, the damping of the shock absorber 100 is relatively large, and the shock absorber 100 in this state can be applied to a case where the vehicle is running on an uneven road surface, and when the first medium passage 201 is opened or the opening degree is increased, the damping of the shock absorber 100 is relatively small, and the shock absorber 100 in this state can be applied to a case where the vehicle is running on a relatively flat road surface.
In short, shock absorber 100 of the present application has at least two operating states, one of which is that electromagnetic assembly 50 is not operated and first medium passage 201 is opened or opened to a large extent, and the damping of shock absorber 100 of this operating state is relatively small, so that it can be applied to a case where a vehicle is traveling on a relatively flat road surface. Secondly, when the electromagnetic assembly 50 works, the first medium channel 201 is closed or the opening degree is smaller, and the damping of the shock absorber 100 in the working state is relatively larger, so that the shock absorber is applicable to the situation that the vehicle runs on an uneven road surface.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, solenoid assembly 50 may be activated automatically based on road and vehicle jolt conditions, and solenoid assembly 50 may also be activated based on driver instructions.
It is understood that closing the first medium channel 201 may also be understood as adjusting the opening of the first medium channel 201, and closing the first medium channel 201 may be understood as adjusting the opening of the first medium channel 201 to zero.
Therefore, the damper 100 of the present application can drive the overflow valve 40 to move according to the actual requirement to adjust the opening of the first medium channel 201, so as to adjust the damping of the damper 100 according to the actual requirement, thereby being capable of meeting various road conditions and being beneficial to improving riding experience of passengers.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the vehicle is equipped with shock absorbers 100 in the wheel region to reduce jounce of the vehicle during travel. When the relative movement of the vehicle body and the wheels occurs, the valve body assembly 200 can move in the first direction of the shock absorber 100, the medium can flow from the restoring space 112 into the compressing space 111 or from the compressing space 111 into the restoring space 112 to play a role of damping, and the heat energy converted from the vibration energy into the oil and gas can be emitted to the atmosphere, so that the shock absorber 100 can operate in a lower temperature range for a long time, which is advantageous for improving the damping effect of the shock absorber 100.
In some embodiments of the present utility model, as shown in fig. 5, 6, and 11, the medium is adapted to drive the relief valve body 40 away from the valve body assembly 30 to adjust the opening of the first medium passage 201.
As can be seen from the foregoing, as some alternative embodiments of the present application, shock absorber 100 of the present application has at least two operating states, one in which electromagnetic assembly 50 is not operating and the other in which electromagnetic assembly 50 is operating. When the electromagnetic assembly 50 is operated, the electromagnetic assembly 50 can drive the overflow valve body 40 to move close to the valve body assembly 30 to reduce the opening degree of the first medium passage 201 or close the first medium passage 201, and in this operating state, the medium can drive the overflow valve body 40 to move away from the valve body assembly 30 to adjust the opening degree of the first medium passage 201. Specifically, if electromagnetic assembly 50 is capable of driving overflow valve body 40 to move closer to valve body assembly 30 to close first media passage 201, media is capable of driving overflow valve body 40 away from valve body assembly 30 to open first media passage 201, and if electromagnetic assembly 50 is capable of driving overflow valve body 40 to move closer to valve body assembly 30 to reduce the opening of first media passage 201, media is capable of driving overflow valve body 40 away from valve body assembly 30 to increase the opening of first media passage 201.
Wherein, in an embodiment in which solenoid assembly 50 is capable of driving spill valve body 40 to move closer to valve body assembly 30 to close first medium passage 201, when solenoid assembly 50 is in operation, valve body assembly 200 decreases in volume of compression space 111 and increases in volume of recovery space 112 during movement of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31, and medium can drive spill valve body 40 away from valve body assembly 30 to open first medium passage 201, so that medium can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31 and first medium passage 201. During movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward recovery space 112, the volume of recovery space 112 decreases, the volume of compression space 111 increases, the medium within recovery space 112 can compress space 111 through medium passage 31, and the medium can drive relief valve body 40 away from valve body assembly 30 to open first medium passage 311, so that the medium can flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31 and first medium passage 201.
In an embodiment in which solenoid assembly 50 is capable of driving spill valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30 to decrease the opening of first medium passage 201, when solenoid assembly 50 is in operation, valve body assembly 200 decreases in volume of compression space 111 and increases in volume of recovery space 112 during movement of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31 and decreasing opening first medium passage 201, and medium can drive spill valve body 40 away from valve body assembly 30 to increase the opening of first medium passage 201, so that medium can flow into recovery space 112 through medium passage 31 and increasing opening first medium passage 201. During the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward recovery space 112, the volume of recovery space 112 decreases, the volume of compression space 111 increases, the medium in recovery space 112 can flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31 and the first medium passage 201 of reduced opening, and the medium can drive relief valve body 40 to move away from valve body assembly 30 to increase the opening of first medium passage 311, so that the medium can flow into compression space 111 through medium passage 31 and the first medium passage 201 of increased opening.
It will be appreciated that when the first medium passage 201 is closed or the opening degree is reduced, the damping of the shock absorber 100 is relatively large, and the shock absorber 100 in this state can be suitably used in a case where the vehicle is running on an uneven road surface. By configuring the shock absorber 100 in a structural form in which the medium can drive the overflow valve body 40 to move away from the valve body assembly 30 to adjust the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, when the vehicle jounce amplitude is too large, the medium can open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201 to increase the medium flow rate, so as to reduce the damping of the shock absorber 100, so as to improve the damping effect of the shock absorber 100, and thus the riding experience of passengers can be improved.
It should be explained that, when the vehicle jounce amplitude is too large, the volume change of the compression space 111 and the recovery space 112 per unit time is large, so that a large amount of medium needs to flow between the compression space 111 and the recovery space 112, however, since the first medium passage 201 is closed or the opening degree is reduced when the electromagnetic assembly 50 is operated, the medium cannot flow rapidly, the medium is accumulated at the overflow valve body 40, and a large amount of medium can push the overflow valve body 40 to move to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201. By the aid of the arrangement, a vehicle with the shock absorber 100 provided by the application has a good shock absorbing effect, and riding experience of passengers is improved.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1 to 20, the medium passage 31 may include a first medium passage 311 and a second medium passage 312, the medium in the compression space 111 may flow into the recovery space 112 through the first medium passage 311, and the medium in the recovery space 112 may flow into the compression space 111 through the second medium passage 312, wherein the first medium passage 311 and the second medium passage 312 are unidirectional passages.
Wherein, valve body assembly 30 has medium passage 31, compression space 111 and restoration space 112 can selectively communicate through medium passage 31. Specifically, during the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the volume of compression space 111 decreases, the volume of recovery space 112 increases, and the medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through first medium passage 311. During the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward recovery space 112, the volume of recovery space 112 decreases, the volume of compression space 111 increases, and the medium in recovery space 112 can flow into compression space 111 through second medium passage 312.
Further, both the first medium passage 311 and the second medium passage 312 may be constructed as unidirectional passages, that is, the medium in the compression space 111 may flow into the recovery space 112 through the first medium passage 311, but the medium in the compression space 111 may not flow into the recovery space 112 through the second medium passage 312, the medium in the recovery space 112 may flow into the compression space 111 through the second medium passage 312, but the medium in the recovery space 112 may not flow into the compression space 111 through the first medium passage 311.
When the valve body assembly 200 moves in different directions, the compression space 111 and the recovery space 112 are communicated through different passages, so that the medium can smoothly circulate, the stability of vibration reduction is improved, and as an optional effect, in the above embodiment, the second magnetic member does not need to be provided with a ventilation structure, and the manufacturing difficulty of the second magnetic member is reduced.

Further, the first medium passage 311 may communicate with the compression space 111, the third sub medium passage 3113 may communicate with the restoration space 112, and both the first sub medium passage 3111 and the third sub medium passage 3113 may be unidirectional passages. During the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the volume of compression space 111 decreases and the volume of recovery space 112 increases, and the medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through first sub-medium passage 3111, second sub-medium passage 3112 and third sub-medium passage 3113 in this order.
Further, each of the first sub-medium passage 3111 and the third sub-medium passage 3113 may be structured as a one-way passage, that is, the medium in the compression space 111 may flow into the recovery space 112 through the first sub-medium passage 3111 and the third sub-medium passage 3113, but the medium in the recovery space 112 may not flow into the compression space 111 through the first sub-medium passage 3111 and the third sub-medium passage 3113.
The arrangement makes it possible to make the structure of the first medium passage 311 reasonable, to make the medium in the compression space 111 flow into the restoring space 112 through the first sub-medium passage 3111, the second sub-medium passage 3112 and the third sub-medium passage 3113 in this order, and to prevent the medium in the restoring space 112 from flowing into the compression space 111 through the first sub-medium passage 3111 and the third sub-medium passage 3113, so that the medium can smoothly circulate, and the stability of vibration reduction can be improved.

Specifically, during the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the volume of compression space 111 decreases, the volume of recovery space 112 increases, and the medium in compression space 111 can flow into recovery space 112 through first sub-medium passage 3111, second sub-medium passage 3112, and third sub-medium passage 3113 in this order. When the medium flows into the first sub-medium passage 3111, the medium can flow out of the valve body assembly 30, and then the medium can flow into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412, and then flow from the third medium passage 313 into the second sub-medium passage 3112.
During the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward restoring space 112, the volume of restoring space 112 decreases, the volume of compressing space 111 increases, and the medium in restoring space 112 can flow into compressing space 111 through fourth sub-medium passage 3121, fifth sub-medium passage 3122, and sixth sub-medium passage 3123 in this order. Also, when the medium flows into the fifth sub-medium passage 3122, the medium can flow out of the valve body assembly 30 from the fifth sub-medium passage 3122, then the medium can flow into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412, and then flow into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313.
By providing such a configuration, the medium flowing from the compression space 111 into the recovery space 112 and the medium flowing from the recovery space 112 into the compression space 111 can flow through the first communication hole 3412, the medium flowing from the compression space 111 into the recovery space 112 and the medium flowing from the recovery space 112 into the compression space 111 can share the first communication hole 3412, and the structure of the medium passage 31 of the valve body assembly 30 can be made reasonable.

As shown in fig. 3-6, 8, 9, and 11, the mating valve 60, the valve body assembly 30, and the relief valve body 40 may collectively define a first medium circulation space 35, each of the first sub-medium passage 3111 and the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 may extend through the valve cover 34 in the first direction, the first medium circulation space 35 may communicate the first communication hole 3412 and the first sub-medium passage 3111, and the first medium circulation space 35 may communicate the first communication hole 3412 and the fifth sub-medium passage 3122.
Specifically, after the medium in compression space 111 flows into first sub-medium passage 3111 during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the medium may flow out of valve body assembly 30 through first sub-medium passage 3111 and into first medium circulation space 35, then the medium in first medium circulation space 35 may flow into third medium passage 313 through first communication hole 3412, and then flow from third medium passage 313 into second sub-medium passage 3112, since first sub-medium passage 3111 penetrates valve cover 34 in the first direction.
During the movement of the valve body assembly 200 toward the restoring space 112 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100, the medium in the restoring space 112 can sequentially pass through the fourth sub-medium passage 3121 and the fifth sub-medium passage 3122, and after the medium flows into the fifth sub-medium passage 3122, since the first sub-medium passage 3111 penetrates the valve cover 34 in the fifth direction, the medium can flow out of the valve body assembly 30 through the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 and into the first medium circulation space 35, and then the medium in the fifth medium circulation space can flow into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412 and then flow into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313.
The arrangement allows the medium flowing from the compression space 111 into the recovery space 112 and the medium flowing from the recovery space 112 into the compression tool to flow through the first medium circulation space 35, so that the medium flowing from the compression space 111 into the recovery space 112 and the medium flowing from the recovery space 112 into the compression space 111 can share the first medium circulation space 35 on the basis of not affecting the unidirectional conduction of the first medium passage 311 and the unidirectional conduction of the second medium passage 312, the space outside the valve body assembly 30 can be utilized, and the space outside the valve body assembly 30 is also included in the medium circulation path, thereby the space of the shock absorber 100 can be reasonably utilized, the design of the shock absorber 100 is reasonable, the design rationality of the shock absorber 100 is improved, the internal structure of the valve body assembly 30 is facilitated to be simplified, and the production difficulty of the valve body assembly 30 is facilitated to be reduced.

Specifically, in the operation mode in which the solenoid assembly 50 reduces the opening degree of the first medium passage 201 or closes the first medium passage 201, after the medium in the compression space 111 flows into the first sub-medium passage 3111 during the movement of the valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100 toward the compression space 111, since the first sub-medium passage 3111 penetrates the valve cover 34 in the first direction, the medium can flow out of the valve body assembly 30 through the first sub-medium passage 3111 and into the first medium circulation space 35, at this time, if the solenoid assembly 50 closes the first medium passage 201, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the third medium passage 313 only through the first communication hole 3412, and if the solenoid assembly 50 reduces the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412, and the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can also flow toward the recovery space 112 through the first medium passage 201 with the reduced opening degree.
It should be noted that, whether the electromagnetic assembly 50 decreases the opening degree of the first medium passage 201 or closes the first medium passage 201, the amount of medium accumulated in the first medium passage space 35 is larger than the amount flowing through the first medium passage space 35, that is, a large amount of medium accumulates in the first medium passage space 35 during the movement of the valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100 toward the compression space 111, and since the mating valve 60, the valve body assembly 30 and the overflow valve body 40 together define the first medium passage space 35, the medium accumulated in the first medium passage space 35 has a contact surface with the overflow valve body 40, the medium accumulated in the first medium passage space 35 applies a pushing force to the overflow valve body 40 to move the overflow valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, so that the medium accumulated in the first medium passage space 35 flows through the opened first medium passage 201 or the first medium passage 201 with increased opening degree.
In the operation mode in which the solenoid assembly 50 reduces the opening degree of the first medium passage 201 or closes the first medium passage 201, after the medium in the recovery space 112 flows into the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 during the movement of the valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100 toward the recovery space 112, since the first sub-medium passage 3111 penetrates the valve cover 34 in the fifth direction, the medium can flow out of the valve body assembly 30 through the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 and into the first medium circulation space 35, at this time, if the solenoid assembly 50 closes the first medium passage 201, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the third medium passage 313 only through the first communication hole 3412, and if the solenoid assembly 50 reduces the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412, and the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can also flow toward the compression space 111 through the first medium passage 201 with the reduced opening degree.
It should be noted that, whether solenoid assembly 50 decreases the opening of first medium passage 201 or closes first medium passage 201, the amount of medium accumulated in first medium circulation space 35 is larger than the amount of medium flowing out through first medium circulation space 35, that is, a large amount of medium accumulates in first medium circulation space 35 during the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward restoring space 112. In this case, the present application proposes two embodiments, one of which is the same as that described above, in that the mating valve 60, the valve body assembly 30 and the overflow valve body 40 together define the first medium circulation space 35, the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 has a contact surface with the overflow valve body 40, and the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 applies a pushing force to the overflow valve body 40 to move the overflow valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, so that the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 flows through the opened first medium passage 201 or the first medium passage 201 of increased opening degree.
Second, another flow path may be opened in the overflow valve body 40, the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 may flow through the flow path opened in the overflow valve body 40, and the medium may flow into the third medium passage from the inside of the overflow valve body 40 through the flow path opened in the overflow valve body 40, and the medium flowing through the flow path opened in the overflow valve body 40 may accumulate on the side of the overflow valve body 40 facing the valve body assembly 30, and the accumulated medium may apply a thrust force to the overflow valve body 40 to move the overflow valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30, so as to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening of the first medium passage 201, so that the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 may flow through the opened first medium passage 201 or the first medium passage 201 with increased opening. (for a specific flow path design of the relief valve body 40, reference is made to the following
It should be explained that, when the electromagnetic assembly 50 works, the damping of the shock absorber 100 is larger, and the medium at the first medium circulation space 35 of the shock absorber 100 can drive the overflow valve 40 to move away from the valve assembly 30 to increase the opening of the first medium channel 201 or open the first medium channel 201, so that the vehicle using the shock absorber 100 provided by the application has a good damping effect, which is beneficial to improving riding experience of passengers.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 4 to 6, 8 to 11, and 15 to 20, the top wall of the first boss 341 may have at least one second communication hole 3413, and the second communication hole 3413 may communicate the third medium passage 313 and the first medium passage 201. The number of the second communication holes 3413 may be one, or the number of the second communication holes 3413 may be plural, the plurality of second communication holes 3413 may be circumferentially spaced apart, and the second communication holes 3413 may penetrate through the top wall of the first boss 341 to communicate the third medium passage 313 with the first medium passage 201.
Specifically, after the medium in the compression space 111 flows into the first sub-medium passage 3111, the medium may flow out of the valve body assembly 30 through the first sub-medium passage 3111 and into the first medium circulation space 35, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 may flow into the first medium channel 201, and then the medium may flow into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 and sequentially flow into the restoring space 112 through the second sub-medium passage 3112 and the third sub-medium passage 3113.
After the medium in the restoring space 112 flows into the fifth sub-medium passage 3122, the medium may flow out of the valve body assembly 30 through the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 and into the first medium circulation space 35, the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 may flow into the first medium channel 201, and then the medium may flow into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 and into the compression space 111 through the sixth sub-medium passage 3123.
By providing the second communication hole 3413 which communicates the third medium passage 313 with the first medium passage 201 in the top wall of the first boss 341, the medium flowing into the first medium passage 201 can be made to enter the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413, and since the medium flowing into the restoring space 112 from the compressing space 111 and the medium flowing into the compressing space 111 from the restoring space 112 share the third medium passage 313, the medium flowing into the third medium passage 313 from the first medium passage 201 through the second communication hole 3413 can flow into the restoring space 112 or the compressing space 111, the flow path arrangement of the shock absorber 100 can be made reasonable and smart, the shock absorber 100 can have various operation modes, the vehicle to which the shock absorber 100 provided by the present application is applied can have a good shock absorbing effect, and the flow path flowing from the compressing space 111 to the restoring space 112 and the flow path flowing from the restoring space 112 share a partial flow path, which is favorable for reducing the manufacturing quantity of the flow path and reducing the difficulty in manufacturing the shock absorber 100.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 2-5 and 22-25, the valve body assembly 200 may further include a first elastic member 41, wherein the relief valve body 40 may have a relief valve guide post 45 extending toward the valve body assembly 30, the first elastic member 41 may be sleeved on the relief valve guide post 45, and the first elastic member 41 may be stopped between the relief valve body 40 and the valve body assembly 30, specifically, one end of the first elastic member 41 may be stopped against the relief valve body 40, and the other end of the first elastic member 41 may be stopped against the valve cover 34 of the valve body assembly 30.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the second communication hole 3413 may be disposed on the circumferential outer side of the first elastic member 41, so that the disposition of the second communication hole 3413 may be reasonable, and the top wall of the first boss 341 may be able to provide both the abutment position for the first elastic member 41 and the disposition position for the second communication hole 3413.
The first elastic member 41 is adapted to drive the relief valve body 40 away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or to increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201. It should be noted that, when the electromagnetic assembly 50 is not in operation, the first medium channel 201 is in a normally open state under the thrust of the first elastic member 41, in other words, when the electromagnetic assembly 50 is not in operation, the relief valve body 40 is spaced apart from the valve body assembly 30 along the first direction under the thrust of the first elastic member 41. By arranging the first elastic member 41, the electromagnetic assembly 50 is not required to work in most of the application time of the shock absorber 100, which is beneficial to saving energy consumption.
It should be noted that, the elastic force of the first elastic member 41 and the contact area between the medium and the overflow valve body 40 when the medium is located in the first medium circulation space 35 may be adjusted according to the actual requirement, and the flow areas of any one of the first medium passage 311 and the second medium passage 312, the third medium passage 313, the first communication passage 3124, the flow area of the at least one first communication hole 3412, the flow area of the at least one second communication hole 3413 may be adjusted according to the actual requirement, so that the damping of the shock absorber 100 may be adapted to different vehicle types.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1-11 and 26-28, the valve body assembly 200 may further include a mating valve 60, the mating valve 60 may be sleeved outside the relief valve body 40, that is, the relief valve body 40 may be located inside the mating valve 60, the mating valve 60 may be fixedly connected to the valve body assembly 30, as some alternative embodiments of the present application, an end of the mating valve 60 facing the valve body assembly 30 may be fixedly connected to the valve cover 34, and the mating valve 60 may be sleeved outside the first boss 341.
The mating valve 60, the valve body assembly 30, and the relief valve body 40 may collectively define a first media flow space 35, wherein the relief valve body 40 has a relief valve media passage 4231,
The relief valve body 40 may have a relief valve medium passage 4231, the first medium circulation space 35 may communicate with the second medium passage 312 and the relief valve medium passage 4231, and the relief valve medium passage 4231 may communicate with the second medium passage 312. Specifically, the first medium circulation space 35 may communicate the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 and the relief valve medium passage 4231 of the second medium passage 312, and the relief valve medium passage 4231 may communicate with the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 in the second medium passage 312 through the second communication hole 3413, the third medium passage 313.
It should be noted that, during operation of electromagnetic assembly 50, whether electromagnetic assembly 50 decreases the opening degree of first medium passage 201 or closes first medium passage 201, the amount of medium accumulated in first medium circulation space 35 is larger than the amount of medium flowing out through first medium circulation space 35, that is, a large amount of medium accumulates in first medium circulation space 35 during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward restoring space 112. At this time, since the first medium circulation space 35 communicates the second medium passage 312 and the relief valve medium passage 4231, the medium flowing into the first medium circulation space 35 through the fifth sub-medium passage 3122 of the second medium passage 312 can flow into the relief valve medium passage 4231, and then the medium flowing into the relief valve medium passage 4231 can flow into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 in the second medium passage 312 through the second communication hole 3413 and the third medium passage 313 in order to flow into the compression space 111. In addition, the medium flowing through the relief valve medium passage 4231 to the third medium passage 313 may accumulate on the side of the relief valve body 40 facing the valve body assembly 30, specifically, the medium flowing through the relief valve medium passage 4231 to the third medium passage 313 may accumulate at a downstream position in the relief valve medium passage 4231, and the accumulated medium may apply a pushing force to the relief valve body 40 to move the relief valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, so that the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 flows through the opened first medium passage 201 or the first medium passage 201 of increased opening degree.
The arrangement can enable the shock absorber 100 to have three different working states in the process that the valve body assembly 200 moves towards the restoring space 112 along the first direction of the shock absorber 100 when the electromagnetic assembly 50 works, and the damping of the shock absorber 100 is gradually decreased along with the change of the three different working states, so that a vehicle applying the shock absorber 100 provided by the application has good shock absorption effect, and the riding experience of passengers is improved.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1-6, the outside of the valve body assembly 30 may be provided with a seal 36, and the seal 36 may be sealingly disposed between the outside wall of the valve body assembly 30 and the inside wall of the receiving space 11.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7-11, 22-25, the relief valve medium passage 4231 may include a first relief valve passage 421 and a second relief valve passage 422, wherein the first relief valve passage 421 may be in communication with the first medium circulation space 35, the second relief valve passage 422 may be in communication with the second medium passage 312, and the first relief valve passage 421 may be selectively in communication with the second relief valve passage 422.
The second relief valve passage 422 may communicate with the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 in the second medium passage 312 through the second communication hole 3413 and the third medium passage 313.
During operation of solenoid assembly 50 and during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward rebound space 112, a substantial amount of medium accumulates in first medium flow space 35. At this time, since the first medium circulation space 35 communicates with the first relief valve passage 421, the medium flowing into the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the first relief valve passage 421, and when the medium pressure in the first relief valve passage 421 increases, the first relief valve passage 421 communicates with the second relief valve passage 422, the medium in the first relief valve passage 421 can flow into the second relief valve passage 422, and since the second relief valve passage 422 communicates with the second medium passage 312, the medium flowing into the second relief valve passage 422 can flow into the second medium passage 312 to flow into the compression space 111, specifically, the medium flowing into the second relief valve passage 422 can flow into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 in the second medium passage 312 through the second communication hole 3413 and the third medium passage 313 in order to flow into the compression space 111.
By providing the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 in selective communication, the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 can be communicated only when the medium pressure in the first relief valve passage 421 and the first medium circulation space 35 reaches a certain amount, so that the damping of the shock absorber 100 can be reduced along with the accumulation of the medium when the electromagnetic assembly 50 works and the valve body assembly 200 moves towards the restoring space 112 along the first direction of the shock absorber 100, and a vehicle using the shock absorber 100 provided by the application can have a good damping effect, thereby being beneficial to improving the riding experience of passengers.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7-11, the valve body assembly 200 may further include a pilot valve 70, the relief valve medium passage 4231 may further include a first medium communication port 423, the first medium communication port 423 may communicate the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422, and an end of the pilot valve 70 near the relief valve body 40 may be adapted to block the first medium communication port 423.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the pilot valve 70 may be located on a side of the relief valve body 40 remote from the valve body assembly 30, and an end of the pilot valve 70 near the relief valve body 40 may block the first medium communication port 423 to block the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, at least a portion of the end of the pilot valve 70 that blocks the first medium communication port 423 may be configured as a spherical surface.

It should be noted that the medium in the first relief valve passage 421 can push the pilot valve 70 to move the pilot valve 70 away from the relief valve body 40 (or in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30), so that the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 can be communicated, thereby achieving selective communication between the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422.
Specifically, during operation of solenoid assembly 50 and during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward rebound space 112, a substantial amount of medium accumulates in first medium flow space 35. The medium in the first medium flow space 35 can flow into the first relief valve passage 421, and when the pressure of the medium in the first relief valve passage 421 increases, the medium in the first relief valve passage 421 can push the pilot valve 70 to move the pilot valve 70 away from the relief valve body 40 so that the first medium communication port 423 communicates the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422, the first relief valve passage 421 communicates with the second relief valve passage 422, the medium in the first relief valve passage 421 can flow into the second relief valve passage 422, and the medium flowing into the second relief valve passage 422 can flow into the second medium passage 312 to flow into the compression space 111.
By providing the pilot valve 70 and allowing the pilot valve 70 to block the first medium communication port 423, selective communication between the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 can be achieved. In addition, the condition that the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 are communicated is that the medium in the first relief valve passage 421 can push the pilot valve 70 to move, so that when the electromagnetic assembly 50 works and the valve body assembly 200 moves towards the restoring space 112 along the first direction of the shock absorber 100, the damping of the shock absorber 100 is reduced along with the accumulation of the medium, and the shock absorber 100 provided by the application has good damping effect, thereby being beneficial to improving riding experience of passengers.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7-11, 22-25, the first relief valve passage 421 may include a first sub relief valve passage 4211, a second sub relief valve passage 4212, a third sub relief valve passage 4213, wherein the second sub relief valve passage 4212 may be in communication between the first sub relief valve passage 4211 and the third sub relief valve passage 4213.

During operation of solenoid assembly 50 and during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward rebound space 112, a substantial amount of medium accumulates in first medium flow space 35. The medium of the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the first sub relief valve passage 4211, the second sub relief valve passage 4212, and the third sub relief valve passage 4213 in this order, and the medium in the third sub relief valve passage 4213 can push the pilot valve 70 so as to move the pilot valve 70 away from the relief valve body 40, so that the first medium communication port 423 communicates with the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422, specifically so that the first medium communication port 423 communicates with the third sub relief valve passage 4213 and the second relief valve passage 422 of the first relief valve passage 421.
At least two of the first, second, and third sub relief valve passages 4211, 4212, and 4213 have an angle therebetween. That is, the first, second, and third sub relief valve passages 4211, 4212, and 4213 are not all parallel to each other, in other words, the first, second, and third sub relief valve passages 4211, 4212, and 4213 are crisscrossed.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the first and second sub relief valve passages 4211, 4212 may each extend in a first direction (i.e., the X direction shown in fig. 1), and the third sub relief valve passage 4213 may extend in a second direction (i.e., the Y direction shown in fig. 1).
By constructing the first relief valve passage 421 as three sub-passages and making the three sub-passages be in a criss-cross structural form, the structural form of the first relief valve passage 421 can be reasonable, which is beneficial to fully utilizing the internal space of the relief valve body 40, thereby reducing the volume of the relief valve body 40, saving the production cost, saving the internal space of the shock absorber 100, and reducing the difficulty in arranging other parts of the shock absorber 100.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 24, the second sub relief valve passage 4212 may extend through the relief valve body 40 in a second direction of the shock absorber 100 (i.e., the Y direction shown in fig. 1), wherein the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. By configuring the second sub relief valve passage 4212 to penetrate the relief valve body 40 in the second direction of the shock absorber 100, the difficulty in configuring the second sub relief valve passage 4212 can be reduced, so that the difficulty in producing the relief valve body 40 can be reduced, and the production efficiency of the relief valve body 40 can be improved.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7-11, 22-25, the relief valve body 40 may have a relief valve flange 43 extending toward the mating valve 60, and the relief valve flange 43 may define a second medium flow space 44 with the mating valve 60, wherein the second medium flow space 44 may be in communication with the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422.
Specifically, the inner side of the relief valve flange 43 may define a second medium circulation space 44 together with the mating valve 60, and the second medium circulation space 44 may communicate between the first medium communication port 423 and the second relief valve passage 422.
During operation of solenoid assembly 50 and during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward rebound space 112, a substantial amount of medium accumulates in first medium flow space 35. The medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the first sub-relief valve passage 4211, the second sub-relief valve passage 4212, and the third sub-relief valve passage 4213 in this order, and the medium in the third sub-relief valve passage 4213 can push the pilot valve 70 so that the pilot valve 70 is directed away from the relief valve body 40 to open the first medium communication port 423, and then the medium in the third sub-relief valve passage 4213 can flow into the second medium circulation space 44 through the first medium communication port 423, and the medium flowing into the second medium circulation space 44 can flow into the second relief valve passage 422.
The arrangement allows the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 to communicate with each other through the second medium circulation space 44, and the passage structure of the relief valve body 40 can be made reasonable.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 9, the relief valve flange 43 may be disposed outside the mating valve first flange 61, and a first communication passage may be defined between the relief valve flange 43 and the inner wall of the mating valve 60, and medium may flow from the first sub relief valve passage 4211 into the first communication passage and then from the first communication passage into the second sub relief valve passage 4212, that is, the first communication passage communicates between the second sub relief valve passage 4212 and the first sub relief valve passage 4211.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the relief valve medium passage 42 may include a second communication passage that may be provided to extend in the first direction, and the second communication passage may be communicated between the second sub relief valve passage 4212 and the first communication passage, specifically, the medium may flow from the first sub relief valve passage 4211 into the first communication passage, then flow from the first communication passage into the second communication passage, and then flow from the second communication passage into the second sub relief valve passage 4212. It is to be explained that when the axial thickness (first-direction thickness) of the relief valve body 40 is large, a second communication passage may be provided so as to achieve communication of the second sub relief valve passage 4212 and the first sub relief valve passage 4211.
In some embodiments of the application, as shown in fig. 7-11, the mating valve 60 may have a mating valve first flange 61 extending toward the relief valve body 40, the mating valve first flange 61 and the relief valve flange 43 being co-configured as at least part of the side wall of the second medium flow space 44. Wherein, overflow valve turn-ups 43 and the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve may both be annular turn-ups, overflow valve turn-ups 43 may be located inside the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve, or overflow valve turn-ups 43 may be located outside the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve, and the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve and the turn-ups 43 of the overflow valve may be guided to cooperate.
By configuring the mating valve first flange 61 and the relief valve flange 43 together as at least part of the side wall of the second medium circulation space 44, the space between the relief valve body 40 and the mating valve 60 can be utilized to communicate the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422, the design of the relief valve body 40 can be made compact, and the difficulty in designing and manufacturing the passage of the relief valve body 40 can be reduced.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 9, 22-24, the first sub relief valve passage 4211 may be provided at an outer sidewall of the relief valve body 40. The outer side wall of the relief valve body 40 may be in guiding engagement with the inner side wall of the engagement valve 60, and by providing the first sub relief valve passage 4211 on the outer side wall of the relief valve body 40, a part of the side wall of the first sub relief valve passage 4211 may be constituted by the relief valve body 40, and the other part of the side wall of the first sub relief valve passage 4211 may be constituted by the inner side wall of the engagement valve 60, the arrangement may be such that the installation position of the first sub relief valve passage 4211 is reasonable, and the medium in the first medium circulation space 35 may smoothly flow into the first relief valve passage 421.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7-11, 22-24, the second relief valve passage 422 may include: a fourth sub relief valve passage 4221 and a fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 communicating with each other, the fourth sub relief valve passage 4221 being adapted to communicate with the first relief valve passage 421, the fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 being communicable with the second medium passage 312, and a flow area of the fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 being larger than a flow area of the fourth sub relief valve passage 4221.
Wherein the fourth sub relief valve passage 4221 may communicate with the third sub relief valve passage 4213 of the first relief valve passage 421 through the first medium communication port 423, the fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 may communicate between the fourth sub relief valve passage 4221 and the second medium passage 312, and the fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 may communicate with the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 provided on the top wall of the valve cap 34 to communicate with the sixth sub medium passage 3123 of the second medium passage 312.
During operation of solenoid assembly 50 and during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward rebound space 112, a substantial amount of medium accumulates in first medium flow space 35. The medium of the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the first sub relief valve passage 4211, the second sub relief valve passage 4212, and the third sub relief valve passage 4213 in this order, and the medium in the third sub relief valve passage 4213 can push the pilot valve 70 so that the pilot valve 70 is directed away from the relief valve body 40 to flow into the second medium circulation space 44 through the first medium communication port 423, and then the medium can flow into the fourth sub relief valve passage 4221, the fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 in this order from the second medium circulation space 44, and then flow into the compression space 111 through the second medium passage 312.
Since the flow area of the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 is larger than the flow area of the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221, the medium flowing from the first medium flow space 35 into the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 may accumulate in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222, and the medium accumulated in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 may contact the bottom wall of the solid structure forming the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221, the medium accumulated in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 may apply a thrust force toward the bottom wall of the solid structure forming the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221 to move the relief valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, so that the medium accumulated in the first medium flow space 35 may flow through the opened first medium passage 201 or the first medium passage 201 of an increased opening degree.
By the aid of the arrangement, a vehicle with the shock absorber 100 provided by the application has a good shock absorbing effect, and riding experience of passengers is improved.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 5, 6 and 11, solenoid assembly 50 is adapted to drive spill valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30 to decrease the opening of first media passage 201 or to close first media passage 201, and the media at fifth sub-spill valve passageway 4222 is adapted to drive spill valve body 40 away from valve body assembly 30 to increase the opening of first media passage 201 or to open first media passage 201.
Specifically, when electromagnetic assembly 50 is operated, electromagnetic assembly 50 is able to drive relief valve body 40 toward valve body assembly 30 so that the opening degree of first medium passage 201 is reduced or first medium passage 201 is closed, when electromagnetic assembly 50 is operated, and during the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward return space 112, medium in return space 112 is able to flow into first medium circulation space 35 through fourth sub-medium passage 3121, fifth sub-medium passage 3122, part of the medium in first medium circulation space 35 is able to flow into third medium passage 313 through first communication hole 3412, part of the medium in first medium circulation space 35 is able to flow into first sub-relief valve passage 4211, second sub-relief valve passage 4212 and third sub-relief valve passage 4213 in order, and medium in third sub-relief valve passage 4213 is able to push pilot valve 70 so that pilot valve 70 is directed away from relief valve body 40 to flow into second medium circulation space 44 through first medium communication port 423, and then the medium may flow into fourth sub-relief valve passage 21, fifth sub-medium circulation space 4222 in order from second medium circulation space 44 and then flow into fourth medium circulation space 312 through first medium communication hole 3412, and part of medium circulation space 35 may flow into first medium circulation space 42111, and then flow into first medium circulation space 42111 and then may flow into compression medium passage 42111.
The medium flowing from the first medium circulation space 35 into the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 may accumulate in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222, and since the flow area of the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 is larger than that of the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221, the medium accumulated in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 may contact the bottom wall of the solid structure forming the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221, and the medium accumulated in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 may apply a thrust force toward the bottom wall of the solid structure forming the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221 to move the relief valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 or increase the opening degree of the first medium passage 201, so that the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 may flow through the opened first medium passage 201 or the opened first medium passage 201.
The arrangement can enable the shock absorber 100 to have three different working states in the process that the valve body assembly 200 moves towards the restoring space 112 along the first direction of the shock absorber 100 when the electromagnetic assembly 50 works, and the damping of the shock absorber 100 is gradually decreased along with the change of the three different working states, so that a vehicle applying the shock absorber 100 provided by the application has good shock absorption effect, and the riding experience of passengers is improved.
As an embodiment of the present application, the operation of shock absorber 100 according to the present application will be described specifically by taking the form of electromagnetic assembly 50 in which first medium passage 201 is closed during operation.
The shock absorber 100 according to the present application has two modes of operation, one is that the electromagnetic assembly 50 is not in operation, and when the electromagnetic assembly 50 is not in operation, the first medium channel 201 is opened under the action of the first elastic member 41.
In the first operation mode, during the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the volume of compression space 111 decreases, the volume of recovery space 112 increases, and the medium in compression space 111 can flow into first medium circulation space 35 through first sub-medium passage 3111.
Then, a part of the medium in the first medium flow space 35 flows into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412, and then flows into the second sub-medium passage 3112 and the third sub-medium passage 3113 from the third medium passage 313 in order to flow into the restoring space 112 from the third sub-medium passage 3113. The other part of the medium of the first medium circulation space 35 flows into the first medium passage 201, then flows into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 opened in the top wall of the valve cover 34, and then flows into the second sub-medium passage 3112, the third sub-medium passage 3113 from the third medium passage 313 in order to flow into the restoring space 112 from the third sub-medium passage 3113.
In the first operation mode, the volume of the restoring space 112 is reduced and the volume of the compression space 111 is increased during the movement of the valve body assembly 200 toward the restoring space 112 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100, and the medium in the restoring space 112 can flow into the first medium circulation space 35 through the fourth sub-medium passage 3121 and the fifth sub-medium passage 3122. Then, a part of the medium of the first medium flow space 35 flows into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412, and then flows into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313 to flow into the compression space 111 from the sixth sub-medium passage 3123. Another part of the medium of the first medium circulation space 35 flows into the first medium passage 201, then flows into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 opened in the top wall of the valve cover 34, and then flows into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313 to flow into the compression space 111 from the sixth sub-medium passage 3123.
In the second mode of operation, electromagnetic assembly 50 is in operation and first media path 201 is closed. Specifically, the solenoid assembly 50 operates, and a second magnetic member (which may be a magnetic core 80 described below) moves toward the mating valve 60, which moves the pilot valve 70 toward the mating valve 60, and the pilot valve 70 moves toward the mating valve 60 to push the relief valve body 40 to close the first medium passage 201.
In the second operation mode, during the movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward compression space 111, the volume of compression space 111 decreases, the volume of recovery space 112 increases, the medium in compression space 111 can flow into first medium circulation space 35 through first sub-medium passage 3111, and since electromagnetic assembly 50 closes first medium passage 201, the medium in first medium circulation space 35 can flow into third medium passage 313 only through first communication hole 3412, and then flows into second sub-medium passage 3112 and third sub-medium passage 3113 from third medium passage 313 in order to flow into recovery space 112 from third sub-medium passage 3113. This is the Q1 stage shown in fig. 4.
At this time, the amount of the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 is larger than the amount of the medium flowing through the first medium circulation space 35, that is, a large amount of the medium is accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35, the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 applies a pushing force to the overflow valve body 40 to move the overflow valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201 so that the medium accumulated in the first medium circulation space 35 flows into the first medium passage 201, then flows into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 opened in the top wall of the valve cover 34, and then flows into the second sub-medium passage 3112, the third sub-medium passage 3113 from the third medium passage 313 in order to flow into the restoring space 112 from the third sub-medium passage 3113. This is the Q2 stage shown in fig. 6.
In the second operation mode, during the movement of the valve body assembly 200 toward the restoring space 112 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100, the volume of the restoring space 112 is reduced, the volume of the compressing space 111 is increased, the medium in the restoring space 112 may flow into the first medium circulation space 35 through the fourth sub-medium passage 3121, the fifth sub-medium passage 3122, and the medium of the first medium circulation space 35 flows into the third medium passage 313 through the first communication hole 3412 due to the closing of the first medium passage 201 by the electromagnetic assembly 50, and then flows into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313 to flow into the compressing space 111 from the sixth sub-medium passage 3123. This is the Q3 stage shown in fig. 7 and 8.
And, during the movement of the valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of the shock absorber 100 toward the restoring space 112, a large amount of medium accumulates in the first medium circulation space 35. The medium in the first medium circulation space 35 can flow into the first sub relief valve passage 4211, the second sub relief valve passage 4212 and the third sub relief valve passage 4213 in this order, and the medium in the third sub relief valve passage 4213 can push the pilot valve 70 so that the pilot valve 70 is directed away from the relief valve body 40 to open the first medium communication port 423, and then the medium in the third sub relief valve passage 4213 can flow into the second medium circulation space 44 through the first medium communication port 423, and the medium flowing into the second medium circulation space 44 can flow into the fourth sub relief valve passage 4221, the fifth sub relief valve passage 4222 in this order, and then flow into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 opened in the top wall of the valve cap 34, and then flow into the sixth sub medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313 to flow into the compression space 111 from the sixth sub medium passage 3123. This is the Q4 stage shown in fig. 9 and 10.
Further, the medium flowing from the first medium circulation space 35 into the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422 may accumulate in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222, and since the flow area of the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 is larger than the flow area of the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221, the medium accumulated in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 may contact the bottom wall of the solid structure forming the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221, and the medium accumulated in the fifth sub-relief valve passage 4222 may apply a thrust force toward the bottom wall of the solid structure forming the fourth sub-relief valve passage 4221 to move the relief valve body 40 in a direction away from the valve body assembly 30 to open the first medium passage 201, and after the first medium passage 201 is opened, the medium of the first medium circulation space 35 may flow into the first medium passage 201, then flow into the third medium passage 313 through the second communication hole 3413 opened in the top wall of the valve cap 34, and then flow into the sixth sub-medium passage 3123 from the third medium passage 313 to flow into the compression space 111 from the sixth sub-medium passage 3123. This is the Q5 stage shown in fig. 11.
It should be noted that, in the actual use process, the Q2 stage may be instantaneously performed simultaneously with the Q1 stage, and the Q1 and Q2 stages do not necessarily have a significant time difference. Similarly, there is not necessarily a significant time difference between the three phases Q3, Q4, Q5. Moreover, the Q2 phase may be repeated in use for a very short period of time, and likewise Q4, Q5 may be repeated in use for a very short period of time.
Also, the Q4 and Q5 phases may exist simultaneously, or the Q4 phase may be shut down at the Q5 phase. In summary, how the multiple phases work alternately or simultaneously is closely related to the actual usage of the shock absorber.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 28, the middle position of the fitting valve 60 may have a first protrusion 62 protruding toward the inside, and the inner side wall of the first protrusion 62 may be fitted with the outer side wall of the relief valve body 40.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the outer sidewall of the overflow valve body 40 may be in guiding engagement with the inner sidewall of the first protrusion 62 to precisely move the overflow valve body 40, and the inner sidewall of the first protrusion 62 may also limit the overflow valve body 40 to avoid the overflow valve body 40 from moving in the second direction.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the outer side wall of the overflow valve body 40 may simultaneously sealingly cooperate with the inner side wall of the first boss 62 to reduce leakage of medium through the gap between the outer side wall of the overflow valve body 40 and the inner side wall of the first boss 62.
As an alternative embodiment of the present application, by varying the amount of protrusion of first boss 62 inwardly, the contact area of the medium in first medium flow space 35 with relief valve body 40 may be adjusted to vary the force required to open first medium passage 201 during movement of valve body assembly 200 in the first direction of shock absorber 100 toward recovery space 112 during operation of solenoid assembly 50.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 1-11 and 28, the end of the mating valve 60 proximate the valve body assembly 30 may be secured to the valve body assembly 30, and as some alternative embodiments of the present application, the end of the mating valve 60 proximate the valve body assembly 30 may be welded to the valve cover 34 of the valve body assembly 30. The mating valve 60 defines a mating valve receiving space 63, the open end of which may be oriented toward the valve body assembly 30, and portions of the structure of the valve body assembly 30 and the relief valve body 40 may each be positioned within the mating valve receiving space 63, and more particularly, portions of the structure of the valve cover 34 and the relief valve body 40 may each be positioned within the mating valve receiving space 63. The arrangement can lead the arrangement position of each part of the valve body assembly 200 to be reasonable, lead each part in the valve body assembly 200 to be compact, be beneficial to saving the internal space of the shock absorber 100 and be beneficial to reducing the whole volume of the shock absorber 100.
And, through making the end that the mating valve 60 is close to the valve body subassembly 30 can link firmly with the valve body subassembly 30, can link together mating valve 60 and valve body subassembly 30 fixedly to can make the motion of valve body subassembly 200 steady, reduce the probability that each spare part interferes when valve body subassembly 200 moves.
Furthermore, such an arrangement facilitates reducing the path length of the medium flow, facilitates increasing the corresponding rate of shock absorber 100, and improves the performance of shock absorber 100.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7-11, 26-28, the top wall of the mating valve 60 may have a mating valve first flange 61 extending toward the relief valve body 40, and the relief valve body 40 may have a relief valve flange 43 extending toward the mating valve 60, the mating valve first flange 61 and the relief valve flange 43 together being configured as at least a portion of a side wall of the second medium circulation space 44. Wherein, overflow valve turn-ups 43 and the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve may both be annular turn-ups, overflow valve turn-ups 43 may be located inside the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve, or overflow valve turn-ups 43 may be located outside the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve, and the first turn-ups 61 of the mating valve and the turn-ups 43 of the overflow valve may be guided to cooperate. It can be appreciated that the overflow valve body 40 can move along the first direction, and the movement direction of the overflow valve body 40 can be accurate by guiding and matching the first flange 61 of the matching valve with the flange 43 of the overflow valve, so that the probability that the overflow valve body 40 is blocked in the matching valve 60 is reduced, and the use reliability of the shock absorber 100 is improved.
As some alternative embodiments of the application, the mating valve first flange 61 is in sealing engagement with the relief valve flange 43 to reduce leakage of medium from the gap between the mating valve first flange 61 and the relief valve flange 43.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 26-28, the top wall of the mating valve 60 may have a first relief hole 64, the shock absorber 100 may further include a pilot valve 70, the pilot valve 70 may be disposed through the first relief hole 64, and an end of the pilot valve 70 near the relief valve body 40 is adapted to stop against the relief valve body 40.
The relief valve medium passage 4231 may further include a first medium communication port 423, and the first medium communication port 423 may communicate the first relief valve passage 421 and the second relief valve passage 422, and an end of the pilot valve 70 near the relief valve body 40 may abut against the relief valve body 40 and block the first medium communication port 423.
As some alternative embodiments of the present application, the end of the pilot valve 70 away from the overflow valve 40 may abut against a moving magnetic element (i.e. the second magnetic element described above is disposed on the side of the overflow valve 40 away from the valve body assembly 30), and after the electromagnetic assembly 50 is energized, the second magnetic element moves toward the first magnetic element due to the fact that the first magnetic element is fixed relative to the second magnetic element, and the second magnetic element moves to move the pilot valve 70, so that the overflow valve 40 can be driven to move close to the valve body assembly 30.
Because the overflow valve body 40 is arranged in the matching valve accommodating space 63, the pilot valve 70 can pass through the first avoiding hole 64 to be in contact with the overflow valve body 40 by arranging the first avoiding hole 64 on the top wall of the matching valve 60, so that the moving magnetic piece can be driven by the electromagnetic assembly 50 to move to drive the overflow valve body 40 to move, and the inner side wall of the first avoiding hole 64 can be in guide fit with the outer side wall of the pilot valve 70 to ensure that the moving direction of the pilot valve 70 is accurate.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 1-11 and 31-34, the valve body assembly 200 may further include: magnetic core 80, electromagnetic assembly 50 may define an electromagnetic receiving space 524, at least a portion of magnetic core 80 may be disposed within electromagnetic receiving space 524, pilot valve 70 may be positioned between overflow valve body 40 and magnetic core 80, and an end of pilot valve 70 proximate magnetic core 80 may be in abutting contact with magnetic core 80.
Wherein, after the electromagnetic assembly 50 is energized, the magnetic core 80 and the mating valve 60 can generate an attractive force to make the magnetic core 80 and the mating valve 60 move close to each other, as some alternative embodiments of the present application, the mating valve 60 is stationary relative to the magnetic core 80, so that after the electromagnetic assembly 50 is energized, the magnetic core 80 moves towards the mating valve 60, and because one end of the pilot valve 70 close to the magnetic core 80 is in contact with the magnetic core 80, the magnetic core 80 moves to drive the pilot valve 70 to move, thereby driving the overflow valve 40 to move close to the valve body assembly 30.
