Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif amortisseur de chocs muni d'un piston qui est inséré de manière coulissante dans un cylindre et qui définit une première chambre opérationnelle et une deuxième chambre opérationnelle à l'intérieur du cylindre. Un élément générateur de force d'amortissement, qui augmente une force d'amortissement générée en fonction du débit, communique avec la première chambre opérationnelle et la deuxième chambre opérationnelle. Une chambre de pression divisée en une première chambre de pression et une deuxième chambre de pression par un piston libre fait partie intégrante du piston. Un premier chemin de communication communique avec la première chambre opérationnelle et la première chambre de pression et un deuxième chemin de communication communique avec la deuxième chambre opérationnelle et la deuxième chambre de pression. Il est prévu une soupape de décharge qui permet au fluide de passer de la première chambre opérationnelle vers la deuxième chambre opérationnelle lorsque la différence de pression entre la première chambre opérationnelle et la deuxième chambre opérationnelle dépasse une pression de décharge. Selon l'invention, le niveau d'augmentation de la force d'amortissement en fonction de l'augmentation du débit est inférieur à celui de l'élément générateur de force d'amortissement, ce qui permet de supprimer l'augmentation de la force d'amortissement générée lorsque le piston se déplace à grande vitesse indépendamment de la fréquence de vibration du piston.
