Abstract
A damper includes a pressure tube extending about a longitudinal axis and defining an interior volume. The damper includes a piston attached to a piston rod and slidably disposed within the pressure tube. The piston divides the interior volume of the pressure tube into a first working chamber and a second working chamber. The damper includes a fluid connection having a first wall and a second wall, each elongated along the longitudinal axis and sealed to the pressure tube. The fluid connection has a third wall elongated along the longitudinal axis and extending from the first wall to the second wall. The pressure tube defines an opening at the first working chamber, and the third wall of the fluid connection defines an opening spaced apart from the opening of the pressure tube. The first wall, the second wall, and the third wall define a passage extending from the opening of the pressure tube to the opening of the third wall. The damper with the fluid connection in this application requires less material, is easier to assemble, and has other manufacturing efficiencies.
