Abstract

1,117,720. Vehicle suspension. ARMSTRONG PATENTS CO. Ltd. 29 June, 1965 [7 April, 1964], No. 14250/68. Divided out of 1,117,581. Heading B7D. A telescopic, hydraulic double acting vibration damper 14 having unidirectional flow controlled by a damping valve whose characteristics may be varied by a solenoid 12 is connected between a bracket 4 extending radially from an axle 6, and the vehicle frame 10, there being a vertical component of inclination in its attitude. The solenoid is in the circuit of or is in parallel with, the brake warning lamp, or the damping valve may alternatively be controlled by a mechanical or cable connection to the brake linkage. The axle 6 is connected to a leaf-spring 8, and the damper is controlled to give a harder setting during braking to avoid spring twist. In a modification, Figure 2, the vibration damper is incorporated in a coil spring suspension and is connected to a radially extending bracket 20 to combat wheel twists during braking.
