Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle shock absorbers, in particular to a bottom valve system for a lateral shock absorber. BACKGROUND
[0002] The lateral shock absorber of the driver's cab restrains the lateral vibration and roll of the vehicle during driving, and improves the lateral suspension characteristics of the vehicle through the extension damping force and compression damping force. As one of the most important components of commercial vehicles, the damping performance of the lateral shock absorber directly affects the driving experience of the driver.
[0003] In the existing conventional shock absorber, the flow space of the bottom valve body is uniformly distributed in the circumference. When the shock absorber is installed horizontally, the upper end of the bottom valve body is exposed to the oil, which is exposed to the air, causing the air to flow and causing the damping stroke to appear. During the driving process of the vehicle, the shock absorber loses the damping performance. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application provides a bottom valve system for a lateral shock absorber to solve the technical problem that the upper end of the bottom valve body cannot be sealed when the shock absorber is installed horizontally, causing air to flow and causing the shock absorber to have a stroke and no damping force.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application provides a bottom valve system for a lateral shock absorber, which comprises a bottom valve seat, a bottom valve body, an oil storage cylinder, a working cylinder, a bottom valve compensation valve system combination, a bottom valve compression valve system combination and a bolt, characterized in that the valve seat and the oil storage cylinder are welded to form a sealed cavity, the bolt is used to install the bottom valve compression valve system combination and the bottom valve compensation valve system combination on the bottom valve body, and the bottom valve body and the bottom valve seat form a circumferential seal and an inner cavity seal with the working cylinder.
[0006] Further, the bolt passes through the bottom valve compression valve system combination, then passes through the bottom valve body and the bottom valve compensation valve system combination, and then uses a pressure pad to press the valve system, and finally uses the tightening torque of the nut to assemble the combination to form the bottom valve system.
[0007] Further, the inside of the bottom valve system cooperates with the working cylinder to form a sealed cavity, and the outside cooperates with the bottom valve seat and the oil storage cylinder to form a sealed cavity.
[0008] Further, the bottom valve compensation valve system combination is arranged in the inner cavity of the working cylinder and the upper end of the bottom valve body.
[0009] Further, the bottom valve compression valve system combination is arranged in the circumferential sealed cavity connected between the bottom valve seat and the lower end of the bottom valve body.
[0010] Further, the circumferential seal formed by the connection of the bottom valve seat and the bottom valve body leaves an oil flow channel for the flow of oil to form damping force.
[0011] Further, the oil passage is arranged at the lower end of the shock absorber during installation.
[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the embodiment of the present application can at least produce the following technical effects:
[0013] 1. The bottom valve valve system for a lateral shock absorber provided by the present application forms a bottom valve valve system through valve combination, cooperates with a working cylinder to form a sealed cavity inside, cooperates with a bottom valve body and an oil storage cylinder to form a sealed cavity outside, and only leaves an oil passage, which is located at the lower end during installation of the shock absorber. During movement of the shock absorber, all oil can only pass through this part, forming a damper, avoiding air circulation in the valve system, solving the problem of air gap formed during lateral installation of the shock absorber, and suppressing body roll and lateral vibration of the vehicle, thereby providing good comfort and handling performance for users.
[0014] 2. The bottom valve valve system for a lateral shock absorber provided by the present application tightly fixes the bottom valve valve system through thread connection between a bolt and a nut, and adopts a compression pad to prevent oil in the sealed cavity from leaking into the circumferential seal due to poor sealing.
