Description
-1 - La présente invention concerne un amortisseur à huile pour véhicule,-1 - The present invention relates to an oil shock absorber for a vehicle,
notammentespecially
pour un véhicule à deux roues.for a two-wheeled vehicle.
On connaît les amortisseurs à huile réglables à la compression et à l'extension, qui We know oil shock absorbers adjustable compression and extension, which
permettent d'optimiser l'absorption des chocs provoqués par les irrégularités de la route. optimize the absorption of shocks caused by road irregularities.
Un inconvénient des amortisseurs de ce type est que leur réglage ne peut s'effectuer que par démontage, pour accéder à des clapets régulant le déplacement du A disadvantage of shock absorbers of this type is that their adjustment can only be made by dismantling, to access valves regulating the movement of the
fluide dans leur piston.fluid in their piston.
Or, à l'usage, il apparaît que le réglage d'un amortisseur ne peut être considéré comme optimal en toutes circonstances, car il dépend du type de terrain sur lequel se However, in use, it appears that the adjustment of a shock absorber cannot be considered optimal in all circumstances, because it depends on the type of terrain on which
déplace le véhicule et du mode de conduite adoptée. moves the vehicle and the driving mode adopted.
Il existe donc un besoin pour un amortisseur réglable en temps réel, c'est-à-dire There is therefore a need for a damper adjustable in real time, that is to say
pendant le roulement du véhicule.while the vehicle is running.
La présente invention vise à proposer un tel amortisseur. The present invention aims to provide such a shock absorber.
L'amortisseur selon la présente invention comprend un piston ayant une tige mobile dont une extrémité plonge dans un cylindre contenant un fluide hydraulique incompressible et se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend en outre un modulateur de débit de fluide, qui communique avec le cylindre, et une chambre de réserve de fluide hydraulique, qui communique avec le modulateur et dans laquelle le fluide hydraulique est soumis à une pression élevée, le modulateur comportant deux voies internes distinctes de circulation de fluide, I'une en direction de la chambre de réserve, I'autre en direction du piston, chaque voie étant munie d'un organe indépendant de réglage de débit du fluide The damper according to the present invention comprises a piston having a movable rod, one end of which plunges into a cylinder containing an incompressible hydraulic fluid and is characterized in that it further comprises a fluid flow modulator, which communicates with the cylinder, and a hydraulic fluid reserve chamber, which communicates with the modulator and in which the hydraulic fluid is subjected to a high pressure, the modulator comprising two separate internal fluid circulation channels, one in the direction of the reserve chamber, The other in the direction of the piston, each channel being provided with an independent fluid flow adjustment member
dans ladite voie, apte à être manceuvré depuis l'extérieur du modulateur. in said path, capable of being operated from outside the modulator.
On comprend que le fonctionnement de l'amortisseur selon l'invention peut être facilement optimisé en temps réel par le conducteur du véhicule agissant directement sur It is understood that the operation of the damper according to the invention can be easily optimized in real time by the driver of the vehicle acting directly on
les deux organes indépendants de réglage de débit du modulateur. the two independent modulator flow adjustment members.
Grâce à l'indépendance des deux voies du modulateur, le conducteur peut régler Thanks to the independence of the two modulator channels, the driver can adjust
l'amortisseur à la compression indépendamment de son réglage à l'extension. the compression damper regardless of its extension setting.
En particulier, il est possible, grâce à l'invention, d'obtenir une certaine dureté de l'amortisseur lors de la compression, pour éviter que la suspension du véhicule n'arrive trop rapidement en fin de course, tout en conservant une grande souplesse à l'extension, afin que l'amortisseur reprenne rapidement sa position de course maximale à la suite d'un choc. Un tel réglage s'avère particulièrement approprié pour une conduite d'un véhicule à In particular, it is possible, thanks to the invention, to obtain a certain hardness of the shock absorber during compression, to prevent the suspension of the vehicle from reaching the end of its travel too quickly, while retaining great flexibility in extension, so that the shock absorber quickly returns to its maximum stroke position following an impact. Such an adjustment is particularly suitable for driving a vehicle with
deux roues en terrain accidenté.two wheels in rough terrain.
-2- Dans un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, chaque voie du modulateur comporte un clapet anti-retour qui assure la circulation du fluide hydraulique uniquement -2- In a particular embodiment of the invention, each channel of the modulator comprises a non-return valve which ensures the circulation of the hydraulic fluid only
dans la direction souhaitée.in the desired direction.
Selon une caractéristique particulière de l'invention, I'organe de réglage de débit est constitué par un frein hydraulique. Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la chambre de réserve comporte deux compartiments séparés par un piston mobile étanche, le premier compartiment se trouvant en communication avec le cylindre du piston à travers le modulateur, I'autre According to a particular characteristic of the invention, the flow control member is constituted by a hydraulic brake. According to another characteristic of the invention, the reserve chamber comprises two compartments separated by a sealed mobile piston, the first compartment being in communication with the piston cylinder through the modulator, the other
compartiment étant fermé et contenant un gaz sous pression. compartment closed and containing gas under pressure.
La pression du gaz est avantageusement d'environ 25 bars. The gas pressure is advantageously around 25 bars.
Dans un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, le cylindre du piston comporte une plaque séparatrice à clapets qui délimite deux compartiments dans le cylindre, dont In a particular embodiment of the invention, the piston cylinder comprises a separating plate with valves which delimits two compartments in the cylinder, of which
l'un se trouve en communication avec la chambre de réserve à travers le modulateur. one is in communication with the reserve chamber through the modulator.
Avantageusement, la manoeuvre des deux organes de réglage du modulateur s'effectue à l'aide de dispositifs placés sur le véhicule en un emplacement facilement Advantageously, the operation of the two modulator adjustment members is carried out using devices placed on the vehicle in a location that is easily
accessible par le conducteur.accessible by the driver.
Par exemple, si l'amortisseur selon l'invention équipe une moto, les dispositifs de réglage sont situés sur le té supérieur de fourche, ce qui permet au pilote de la moto d'intervenir sur les dispositifs de manoeuvre et donc de régler l'amortisseur à la For example, if the shock absorber according to the invention equips a motorcycle, the adjustment devices are located on the upper triple clamp, which allows the motorcycle driver to intervene on the maneuvering devices and therefore to adjust the shock absorber
compression et à l'extension pendant l'évolution du véhicule. compression and extension during vehicle evolution.
Il peut être noté que, selon l'invention, on peut utiliser pour la suspension un ressort dont la pression de tarage est inférieure à celle couramment utilisée, grâce à la présence de la chambre de réserve qui permet de maintenir le fluide hydraulique à une pression It may be noted that, according to the invention, a spring can be used for the suspension, the setting pressure of which is lower than that commonly used, thanks to the presence of the reserve chamber which makes it possible to maintain the hydraulic fluid at a pressure
très élevée.very high.
En effet, le gaz qui est maintenu sous pression dans la chambre de réserve remplit Indeed, the gas which is kept under pressure in the reserve chamber fills
une fonction d'organe élastique en plus de sa fonction de mise en pression du fluide. an elastic organ function in addition to its fluid pressurizing function.
L'avantage de cette caractéristique de l'invention est que l'on évite une dureté brutale de l'amortissement en fin de course du ressort, du fait que le gaz peut être comprimé sans qu'aucune butée mécanique ne soit atteinte, à la différence d'un ressort hélicoïdal The advantage of this characteristic of the invention is that a sudden hardness of the damping at the end of the spring stroke is avoided, since the gas can be compressed without any mechanical stop being reached, at the difference of a coil spring
traditionnel dont les spires peuvent venir en appui deux à deux. traditional whose turns can come to support two by two.
Un autre avantage résultant du fait que le gaz présent dans la chambre de réserve joue le rôle d'organe élastique est qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de démonter l'amortisseur pour régler la dureté du ressort; il suffit d'agir sur la pression du gaz contenu dans la Another advantage resulting from the fact that the gas present in the reserve chamber acts as an elastic member is that it is not necessary to dismantle the damper to adjust the hardness of the spring; it suffices to act on the pressure of the gas contained in the
chambre de réserve.reserve room.
-3- Des essais initiés par l'inventeur ont montré que l'amortisseur selon l'invention permet d'obtenir des débattements de suspension beaucoup plus importants que ceux -3- Tests initiated by the inventor have shown that the shock absorber according to the invention makes it possible to obtain suspension movements much greater than those
atteints avec des amortisseurs traditionnels. achieved with traditional shock absorbers.
En outre, I'entraxe de l'amortisseur selon l'invention est nettement inférieur à I'entraxe d'un amortisseur traditionnel, ce qui procure l'avantage supplémentaire de permettre un abaissement du centre de gravité du véhicule et donc de contribuer à In addition, the center distance of the shock absorber according to the invention is much smaller than the center distance of a traditional shock absorber, which provides the additional advantage of allowing a lowering of the center of gravity of the vehicle and therefore contributing to
améliorer l'adhérence du véhicule sur le sol. improve the grip of the vehicle on the ground.
Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, I'amortisseur selon l'invention équipe le train arrière du véhicule et ses dispositifs de manoeuvre sont constitués par un boîtier électronique de commande associé à un calculateur, lui-même relié à des micro-capteurs In a particular embodiment, the shock absorber according to the invention equips the rear axle of the vehicle and its operating devices consist of an electronic control unit associated with a computer, itself connected to micro-sensors
montés sur le train avant du véhicule. mounted on the front axle of the vehicle.
Dans ce mode de réalisation, les chocs subis par les amortisseurs avant sont mesurés par les micro-capteurs et le calculateur détermine le réglage optimal des amortisseurs arrière pour commander le boîtier électronique de manoeuvre du In this embodiment, the shocks undergone by the front shock absorbers are measured by the micro-sensors and the computer determines the optimal adjustment of the rear shock absorbers for controlling the electronic control unit for the
modulateur.modulator.
De cette manière, le train arrière est réglé de façon optimale pour amortir tous les In this way, the rear axle is optimally adjusted to absorb all the
chocs précédemment subis par le train avant. impacts previously suffered by the front axle.
Afin de faciliter la compréhension de l'invention, on va maintenant en décrire un mode de réalisation fourni à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels: - la figure 1 représente des sections des différents composants d'un amortisseur selon l'invention, In order to facilitate understanding of the invention, we will now describe an embodiment provided by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: - Figure 1 shows sections of the various components of a shock absorber according to the invention,
- la figure 2 est une vue à plus grande échelle de la partie Il de la figure 1. - Figure 2 is an enlarged view of part II of Figure 1.
L'amortisseur comprend trois composants, à savoir un piston 1, un modulateur 2 et The shock absorber comprises three components, namely a piston 1, a modulator 2 and
une chambre de réserve 3.a reserve room 3.
Le piston 1 se compose d'une tige mobile 4 qui évolue dans un cylindre 5 rempli d'huile. Le cylindre 5 est muni d'une plaque séparatrice 6 à clapets 7, bien connue dans The piston 1 consists of a movable rod 4 which evolves in a cylinder 5 filled with oil. The cylinder 5 is provided with a separating plate 6 with valves 7, well known in
ce domaine.this domain.
L'extrémité 8 plongeant dans l'huile de la tige 4 comporte une collerette anti-éjection The end 8 immersed in the oil of the rod 4 has an anti-ejection collar
9 qui limite le débattement de la tige lors de l'extension de l'amortisseur. 9 which limits the travel of the rod during the extension of the shock absorber.
Le point d'ancrage inférieur 10 de l'amortisseur est fixé au bras oscillant prévu à cet The lower anchor point 10 of the shock absorber is fixed to the swing arm provided for this
effet sur le véhicule.effect on the vehicle.
Le cylindre 5 est relié au modulateur 2 par un flexible hydraulique 11 qui aboutit à une chambre de distribution 12 interne au modulateur. Cette chambre de distribution 12 comporte deux extrémités 13,14 munies chacune d'un clapet anti-retour 15,16. L'un 15 de ces clapets (celui de gauche sur la figure) autorise le passage du fluide dans un premier -4- canal 17 désigné canal de compression. L'autre clapet anti-retour 16 autorise l'entrée dans la chambre de distribution 12 du fluide en provenance d'un second canal 18 appelé The cylinder 5 is connected to the modulator 2 by a hydraulic hose 11 which terminates in a distribution chamber 12 internal to the modulator. This distribution chamber 12 has two ends 13,14 each provided with a non-return valve 15,16. One 15 of these valves (the one on the left in the figure) allows the passage of the fluid in a first channel 17 designated compression channel. The other non-return valve 16 authorizes the entry into the distribution chamber 12 of the fluid coming from a second channel 18 called
canal d'extension.extension channel.
Les deux canaux 17,18 constituent des voies internes distinctes de circulation de fluide. The two channels 17, 18 constitute separate internal paths for the circulation of fluid.
La figure 2 montre le détail du clapet 15 et du canal 17. FIG. 2 shows the detail of the valve 15 and of the channel 17.
Le clapet 15 est constitué par une bille 29 retenue dans un tube de laiton 30 engagé The valve 15 is constituted by a ball 29 retained in a brass tube 30 engaged
en force dans l'alésage formant la chambre de distribution 12. in force in the bore forming the distribution chamber 12.
Le tube 30 comporte une fente 31 permettant au fluide de pénétrer dans le canal 17 The tube 30 has a slot 31 allowing the fluid to enter the channel 17
lorsque la bille 29 recule dans le tube 30 sous la pression du fluide. when the ball 29 moves back into the tube 30 under the pressure of the fluid.
Un canal 17a permet au fluide chassé par la bille lors de son recul de s'évacuer vers A channel 17a allows the fluid expelled by the ball during its retreat to evacuate towards
la chambre de réserve.the reserve room.
Ce canal 17a assure également une bonne application de la bille 29 contre son siège formé par l'épaulement 31 en extrémité du tube 30 lorsque le fluide circule en This channel 17a also ensures good application of the ball 29 against its seat formed by the shoulder 31 at the end of the tube 30 when the fluid circulates in
direction du cylindre, comme cela va être décrit. direction of the cylinder, as will be described.
Les deux canaux 17,18 se rejoignent sur la face non visible du modulateur, o un The two channels 17,18 meet on the non visible side of the modulator, where a

Comme on le voit sur la figure, le canal de compression 17, de même que le canal d'extension 18 du modulateur, est équipé d'un frein hydraulique 20,21 qui, dans le cas présent, est équipé par un vérin à vis 22,23 dont le réglage déplace axialement un As can be seen in the figure, the compression channel 17, like the extension channel 18 of the modulator, is equipped with a hydraulic brake 20,21 which, in the present case, is equipped with a screw jack 22,23 whose adjustment axially displaces a
obturateur 24,25 dont le siège intercepte ledit canal 17,18. shutter 24.25 whose seat intercepts said channel 17.18.
Ainsi, lorsque l'obturateur 24,25 est appliqué contre son siège, le canal 17,18 est presque complètement obturé. Le débit de fluide dans ledit canal est limité à son Thus, when the shutter 24.25 is applied against its seat, the channel 17.18 is almost completely closed. The flow of fluid in said channel is limited to its
minimum, l'amortisseur est rendu dur. minimum, the shock absorber is made hard.
Au contraire, lorsque l'obturateur 24,25 est éloigné de son siège, le fluide peut facilement circuler dans le canal 17,18 et l'amortisseur est mou. Il réagit très rapidement On the contrary, when the shutter 24,25 is far from its seat, the fluid can easily circulate in the channel 17,18 and the damper is soft. He reacts very quickly
aux sollicitations résultant des chocs subis par le train de roulement. to stresses resulting from shocks to the undercarriage.
La chambre de réserve 3 consiste en un réservoir pressurisé renfermant un piston mobile étanche 26, qui sépare l'intérieur du réservoir en un premier compartiment 27 contenant l'huile, compartiment qui est raccordé au modulateur 2 par le deuxième flexible hydraulique 19 précédemment décrit, et un second compartiment 28 contenant du gaz The reserve chamber 3 consists of a pressurized reservoir containing a sealed mobile piston 26, which separates the interior of the reservoir into a first compartment 27 containing the oil, compartment which is connected to the modulator 2 by the second hydraulic hose 19 previously described, and a second compartment 28 containing gas
sous pression.under pressure.

Le surcroît de volume qu'elle occupe alors dans le cylindre chasse une When the undercarriage is impacted, the piston rod 4 sinks into the cylinder 5. The additional volume which it then occupies in the cylinder drives out a
certaine quantité d'huile dans le flexible hydraulique 11. certain amount of oil in the hydraulic hose 11.

Le fluide est ensuite conduit par le second flexible 19 dans le premier compartiment 27 de la chambre de réserve 3. Le gaz sous pression dans le second compartiment 28 de la chambre de réserve subit une augmentation de pression et réagit comme un organe élastique en accumulant The fluid is then led by the second hose 19 into the first compartment 27 of the reserve chamber 3. The gas under pressure in the second compartment 28 of the reserve chamber undergoes an increase in pressure and reacts like an elastic member by accumulating
