Abstract

713,214. Hydraulic dampers. GIRLING, Ltd. March 17, 1953 [March 21, 1952], No. 7310/52 Class 108(3) A suspension unit for the rear wheel of a motorcycle comprises a coiled spring e in combination with an hydraulic damper n, the spring abutting between a collar on the piston rod (not shown) of the damper and a sleeve or ring s of which the axial position on the body of the damper is adjustable by moving it angularly, and which is positively located in each of two or more positions. As shown, the ring abuts a second angularly-adjustable ring t. A projection x on the ring t engages a recess y on a cam surface w provided on the ring s when a greater pre-compression of the spring e is required (as shown). When less pre-compression is required (e.g. when there is no pillion passenger) the rings s, t are relatively rotated so that the projection x engages a lower part w<1> of the cam surface w. Holes z (or notches) are provided for the insertion of tommy bars. but the sleeves may alternatively be knurled. In a modification, Figs. 1, 2 (not shown), the ring t may be replaced by diametrically opposed lugs welded or brazed to the shock absorber casing.
