FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing one embodiment of the damping force adjusting device of the present invention, which circulates hydraulic oil in one direction and simultaneously provides resistance to the flow to generate damping force. As shown in the figure, the working cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2 surrounding it are fixed and the upper and lower ends are closed to form an oil reservoir chamber A between the working cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 2. A piston 3 is slidably inserted into the working cylinder 1 and divided into an upper chamber B and a lower chamber C, while the upper end of a piston rod 4 connected to the piston 3 projects upwardly from an oil seal 6 via a rod guide 5. urge Furthermore, a suction valve 7 that opens from the oil reservoir chamber A to the lower chamber C is provided at the compression side end of the working cylinder 1, and a suction valve 7 that opens from the oil sump chamber A to the lower chamber C, and a suction valve 7 that opens from the lower chamber C to the upper chamber B only during the compression stroke. A non-return valve 8 that opens when the cylinder 1 is extended is provided, and the oil in the upper chamber B is supplied to the rod guide 5 at the end of the extension side of the operating cylinder 1. A damping force is generated by a membrane body 14 containing a magnetic fluid housed in a position 13, and an oil hole 11 is provided which leads to the upper part of the oil reservoir chamber A. In addition, the electromagnet is
Even if it is provided inside the outer cylinder 2 as shown at 12' in FIG. 2A, there is no difference in terms of operation and effect.

During the extension stroke of the piston 3, the hydraulic oil in the oil sump chamber A is sucked into the lower part C through the suction hole 7, while the hydraulic oil in the upper chamber B is drawn into the oil sump through the interval 10 (control unit) and the oil hole 11. Discharged into the chamber A, and conversely, during the compression stroke, the hydraulic oil in the lower chamber C is moved into the upper chamber B via the non-return valve 8 of the piston 3.
An amount of hydraulic oil corresponding to the entering volume of the piston rod 4 is returned from the upper chamber B to the oil reservoir chamber A through the gap 10 (control section) and the through hole 11, and in this way, the piston 3 moves both in its expansion and contraction strokes. Hydraulic oil is always circulated in one direction through the spacing 10 to generate a damping force. At this time, the magnetic force is changed by adjusting the current flowing through the excitation coil of the electromagnet 1.

When the current flowing through the excitation coil of the electromagnet 12 is adjusted in this manner, the magnetic fluid within the flexible membrane 14 is magnetized depending on the magnitude of the current, and as shown in FIG. It is pulled to. Therefore, since the amount of oil flowing through the gap 10 changes, the damping force can be adjusted. Moreover, there is an advantage that adjustment can be made regardless of variations in the size of the interval 10.

As explained in detail above, according to the present invention, in addition to being able to reliably adjust the damping force with an extremely simple configuration,
This has the effect of preventing variations due to the size of the intervals.
