The one-way valve body 30 includes a valve seat 300, a one-way valve plate 33 and an elastic member 34. The valve seat 300 and the damping valve body 220 form a first cavity 2131. The one-way valve plate 33 and the elastic member 34 are respectively accommodated in the first cavity 2131. The elastic member 34 is sandwiched between the one-way valve plate 33 and the damping valve body 220.

The connection seal 3213 is located between the inner wall of the first joint 1211 and the outer wall of the cylinder body connection part 32 . The connection seal 3213 is used to improve the connection sealing performance between the first joint 1211 and the cylinder body connection part 32 .
[0036] The valve disc accommodating portion 31 and the damping valve body 220 form a first cavity 2131. The valve disc accommodating portion 31 is provided with a first fluid passage 3121 communicating with the first cavity 2131 and the communicating hole 214. When the one-way valve body 30 is opened, the one-way valve disc 33 moves toward the direction close to the damping valve body 220, and the communicating hole 214 communicates with the first cavity 2131 through the first fluid passage 3121. When the one-way valve body 30 is closed, the one-way valve disc 33 covers the first fluid passage 3121 and closes the first fluid passage 3121.
[0037] The valve plate accommodating portion 31 includes a first abutting portion 311 and a second abutting portion 312. The first abutting portion 311 is connected to the circumferential edge of the second abutting portion 312 on the side facing the damping valve body 220, and is extended in the direction of the damping valve body 220. The cylinder connecting portion 32 is connected to the side of the second abutting portion 312 away from the damping valve body 220, and is extended in the direction away from the damping valve body 220. The first abutting portion 311 and the cylinder connecting portion 32 are configured as a cylindrical structure, the diameter of the first abutting portion 311 is larger than the diameter of the cylinder connecting portion 32, and one end of the first abutting portion 311 close to the cylinder connecting portion 32 and one end of the cylinder connecting portion 32 close to the first abutting portion 311 are connected together through the second abutting portion 312. In some embodiments, the second abutting portion 312 may also be a hollow structure in the shape of a cone, with the end of the second abutting portion 312 having a smaller diameter connected to the cylinder connecting portion 32 , and the end of the second abutting portion 312 having a larger diameter connected to the first abutting portion 311 .
[0038] The first abutting portion 311, the second abutting portion 312 and the damping valve body 220 enclose a first cavity 2131. The second abutting portion 312 is provided with a first fluid channel 3121 and a second fluid channel 3122 spaced apart from the first fluid channel 3121. The first fluid channel 3121 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the second fluid channel 3122 and is spaced apart from the second fluid channel 3122. The cylinder connecting portion 32 is provided with a third fluid channel 321 connecting the second cavity 102 and the second fluid channel 3122. The one-way valve plate 33 is provided on the side of the second abutting portion 312 facing the damping valve body 220. The one-way valve plate 33 is provided with a through hole at a position corresponding to the second fluid channel 3122. The one-way valve plate 33 is constructed as an annular plate. The diameter of the one-way valve disc 33 may correspond to the inner diameter of the first abutting portion 311. When the one-way valve disc 33 is installed in the valve disc accommodating portion 31, the inner wall of the first abutting portion 311 may position the one-way valve disc 33. When the one-way valve body 30 is closed, the one-way valve disc 33 abuts against the second abutting portion 312, and the one-way valve disc 33 covers the first fluid channel 3121. The opening of the first fluid channel 3121 toward the damping valve body 220 is closed by the one-way valve disc 33, and the oil cannot flow through the first fluid channel 3121. When the one-way valve body 30 is opened, the one-way valve disc 33 is spaced apart from the second abutting portion 312, and the opening of the first fluid channel 3121 toward the damping valve body 220 is in an open state, and the oil can flow through the first fluid channel 3121.
[0039] Among them, after the oil in the first cavity 101 flows from the connecting hole 214 into the first fluid channel 3121 and contacts the one-way valve disc 33, the pressure of the oil on the one-way valve disc 33 is opposite to the direction of the elastic force of the elastic member 34 on the one-way valve disc 33. When the pressure of the oil on the one-way valve disc 33 is greater than the elastic force of the elastic member 34 on the one-way valve disc 33, the oil pushes the one-way valve disc 33 toward the damping valve body 220, the first fluid channel 3121 is opened, the oil flows into the first cavity 2131 through the first fluid channel 3121, and then flows into the second cavity 102 through the second fluid channel 3122 and the third fluid channel 321, so that the oil in the first cavity 101 flows into the second cavity 102 through the one-way valve body 30. After the oil in the second cavity 102 enters the first cavity 2131 from the third fluid channel 321 and the second fluid channel 3122, the pressure of the oil acting on the one-way valve plate 33 is in the same direction as the elastic force of the elastic member 34 acting on the one-way valve plate 33. The pressure and the elastic force press the one-way valve plate 33 against the second abutting portion 312. Therefore, the one-way valve plate 33 closes the first fluid channel 3121, so that the oil in the second cavity 102 cannot flow into the first cavity 101 through the one-way valve body 30.
[0040] It is understandable that the elastic force of the elastic member 34 acting on the one-way valve disc 33 needs to be greater than a threshold value, so that when the shock absorbing device 100 is subjected to vibration or other external influences, the one-way valve disc 33 keeps covering the first fluid channel 3121, so that the one-way valve body 30 can better play the role of one-way conduction. In addition, when the pressure of the oil in the second chamber 102 is greater than the pressure of the first chamber 101, since the second fluid channel 3122 and the third fluid channel 321 are passed between the first chamber 2131 and the second chamber 102, the pressure of the oil in the first chamber 2131 on the one-way valve disc 33 is greater than the pressure of the oil in the first fluid channel 3121 on the one-way valve disc 33, so the one-way valve disc 33 is subjected to the pressure of the oil in addition to the elastic force of the elastic member 34, and the elastic force and the oil pressure act in the same direction, both in the direction away from the damping valve body 220. In the embodiment of the present application, the first abutment portion 311 and the second abutment portion 312 are clamped between the damping valve body 220 and the support portion 211, so that the elastic force of the elastic member 34 acting on the one-way valve plate 33 and the pressure of the oil acting on the one-way valve plate 33 will be transmitted to the support portion 211, and the elastic force and pressure will not act on the cylinder structure 10, that is, the one-way valve body 30 will not generate a lateral force acting on the side wall of the second cylinder body 12, thereby avoiding the second cylinder body 12 being squeezed and deformed by the one-way valve body 30, thereby improving the reliability of the shock absorbing device 100.
[0041] Please also read Figure 2 and Figure 7, a first protrusion 3123 supporting the one-way valve disc 33 is convexly provided on the side of the second abutting portion 312 facing the first abutting portion 311. The one-way valve disc 33 is abutted by the elastic member 34 on the side of the first protrusion 3123 away from the second abutting portion 312. Exemplarily, the first protrusion 3123 can be constructed as two annular protrusions. The opening of the first fluid channel 3121 close to the first abutting portion 311 is located between the two annular protrusions. After the one-way valve disc 33 abuts against the two annular protrusions, the one-way valve disc 33 and the surface of the two annular protrusions on the side away from the second abutting portion 312 are in a sealed state, and the first fluid channel 3121 is sealed by the one-way valve disc 33. When the one-way valve disc 33 is separated from the two annular protrusions, the first fluid channel 3121 is opened. Among them, the area of the surface of the first protrusion 3123 on the side away from the second abutting portion 312 is smaller than the area of the surface of the second abutting portion 312 on the side facing the damping valve body 220. After the first protrusion 3123 is provided in this embodiment, the contact area between the second abutting portion 312 and the one-way valve plate 33 can be reduced, thereby reducing the processing area on the second abutting portion 312, and reducing the processing difficulty and processing cost of the valve seat 300. In some embodiments, the first protrusion 3123 can also be configured as an annular protrusion protruding from the opening edge of the first fluid channel 3121, and the number of the first protrusions 3123 can correspond to the number of the first fluid channels 3121.
[0042] A second protrusion 3111 is convexly disposed at one end of the first abutting portion 311 away from the second abutting portion 312. The second protrusion 3111 is arranged in close contact with the damping valve body 220, and a sealing state is established between the end of the first abutting portion 311 away from the second abutting portion 312 and the damping valve body 220. The second protrusion 3111 can reduce the contact area between the first abutting portion 311 and the damping valve body 220, thereby reducing the processing area on the first abutting portion 311, and reducing the processing difficulty and processing cost of the first abutting portion 311.
[0043] Please also read Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6A second cavity 2132 is formed between the damping valve body 220 and the mounting seat 21. The second cavity 2132 is in communication with the first cavity 101. The first cavity 2131 is in communication with the second cavity 2132 when the damping valve body 220 is opened. A connecting flow channel 313 connecting the first cavity 101 and the second cavity 2132 is formed between the valve plate accommodating portion 31 and the mounting seat 21. The connecting flow channel 313 includes a first sub-flow channel 3231 and a second sub-flow channel 216. Specifically, the valve plate accommodating portion 31 and the side portion 212 are arranged at intervals, and a first sub-flow channel 3231 connecting the second cavity 2132 is formed. A plurality of bosses 215 are arranged on one side of the support portion 211 facing the valve plate accommodating portion 31, and the plurality of bosses 215 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the support portion 211. A second sub-flow channel 216 connecting the first cavity 101 and the first sub-flow channel 3231 is formed between two adjacent bosses 215. In some embodiments, the connecting flow channel 313 may also be configured as a groove or channel opened on the side portion 212 and the support portion 211, or the connecting flow channel 313 may also be configured as a groove or channel opened on the first abutting portion 311 and the second abutting portion 312, or the connecting flow channel 313 may also be configured as a groove or channel opened in a portion on the mounting seat 21 and in another portion on the valve plate accommodating portion 31. In some embodiments, the first fluid channel 3121 may be communicated with the connecting flow channel 313, that is, the first fluid channel 3121 is connected to the first sub-flow channel 3231 or the second sub-flow channel 216. In some embodiments, the first fluid channel 3121 may also be independently provided with the connecting flow channel 313, that is, the first fluid channel 3121 and the connecting flow channel 313 are respectively and independently communicated with the first cavity 101.

The end cover 22 is arranged between the valve sleeve 24 and the one-way valve body 30, and the valve plate accommodating portion 31 is arranged in contact with the end cover 22. The valve sleeve 24 and the end cover 22 enclose a damping space for accommodating the valve core 23 and the valve core elastic member 25. The valve core 23 is located between the valve core elastic member 25 and the end cover 22. The valve core elastic member 25 abuts against the side of the valve core 23 away from the end cover 22. The end cover 22 is provided with a liquid inlet channel 221 connected to the first cavity 2131. The valve sleeve 24 is provided with a liquid outlet channel 241 connected to the second cavity 2132. Exemplarily, the liquid outlet channel 241 is opened on the side wall of the valve sleeve 24, and the extension direction of the liquid outlet channel 241 is perpendicular to the central axis of the valve core 23. When the oil in the second cavity 2132 acts on the valve core 23 from the liquid outlet channel 241, the direction of the acting pressure of the oil is perpendicular to the movement direction of the valve core 23, and the oil cannot push the valve core 23 to move.
[0045] When the damping valve body 220 is opened, the valve core 23 is spaced apart from the end cover 22, and the first cavity 2131 is connected to the second cavity 2132 through the liquid inlet channel 221 and the liquid outlet channel 241. When the damping valve body 220 is closed, the valve core 23 abuts against the end cover 22 and closes the liquid inlet channel 221 and / or the liquid outlet channel 241. When the damping valve body 220 is closed, the valve core 23 can close the liquid inlet channel 221 and the liquid outlet channel 241 at the same time, or close one of the liquid inlet channel 221 and the liquid outlet channel 241.
[0046] Specifically, after the oil in the second chamber 102 enters the first chamber 2131 through the third fluid channel 321 and the second fluid channel 3122, the pressure of the oil on the valve core 23 and the elastic force of the valve core elastic member 25 on the valve core 23 are opposite in direction. When the pressure of the oil on the valve core 23 is greater than the elastic force of the valve core elastic member 25 on the valve core 23, the damping valve body 220 opens, and the oil pushes the valve core 23 to move away from the end cover 22, and a gap is formed between the valve core 23 and the end cover 22, that is, a damping port for damping the oil is formed between the valve core 23 and the end cover 22, and the flow resistance of the oil increases. The damping port is connected with the liquid outlet channel 241, and the oil will enter the damping port through the liquid inlet channel 221, and flow into the second chamber 2132 through the liquid outlet channel 241. After the oil flows into the second chamber 2132, it flows into the first chamber 101 through the connecting flow channel 313. When the pressure of the oil on the valve core 23 is less than the elastic force of the valve core elastic member 25 on the valve core 23 , the damping valve body 220 is closed, the valve core 23 abuts against the end cover 22 , and the liquid inlet channel 221 is closed.
[0047] Exemplarily, the damping valve 20 can be configured as a solenoid valve. The damping valve 20 also includes a gland 26, a shell 27 and a coil 28. The shell 27 is arranged at one end of the side portion 212 away from the support portion 211. The shell 27 and the side portion 212 can be fixedly connected together by screwing, welding, clamping, etc. The shell 27 and the side portion 212 are also sealed by a seal. The gland 26 is arranged between the shell 27 and the mounting seat 21. One end of the gland 26 abuts against the shell 27, and the other end abuts against the valve sleeve 24. The end of the valve sleeve 24 away from the gland 26 abuts against the end cover 22. The valve core 23 is movable in the valve sleeve 24. The outer wall of the gland 26 is fitted with the inner wall of the side portion 212 and sealed by a seal. A coil groove 261 is provided on the side of the pressure cover 26 facing away from the valve sleeve 24, and the coil 28 is arranged in the coil groove 261. By controlling the current of the coil 28, the clamping force between the valve core 23 and the end cover 22 can be controlled, thereby adjusting the size of the damping port between the valve core 23 and the end cover 22.
[0048] Please also read Figure 1 and Figure 2The shock absorbing device 100 also includes a partition 14 and a piston 15. The partition 14 is arranged between the second cylinder body 12 and the third cylinder body 13. The second volume chamber 102 is divided into a fourth volume chamber 104 and a fifth volume chamber 105 by the partition 14. Among them, the partition 14 includes a partition body 141 and a partition seal 142. The partition body 141 is sleeved on the outer wall of the third cylinder body 13, and the partition seal 142 is arranged between the partition body 141 and the third cylinder body 13. A positioning hole is opened on the second cylinder body 12, and the partition body 141 extends from the positioning hole on the side away from the third cylinder body 13, and is sealed and connected with the hole wall of the positioning hole.
[0049] The first connecting hole 121 is connected to the fourth cavity. The first cavity 101 is connected to the fourth cavity 104 through the one-way valve body 30. A second connecting hole 122 connected to the fifth cavity 105 is also provided on the second cylinder body 12. The shock absorbing device 100 also includes at least one regulating valve 40. The regulating valve 40 is connected to the second connecting hole 122 and connects the first cavity 101 and the fifth cavity 105. The regulating valve 40 is used to damp the oil when the oil in the fifth cavity 105 enters the first cavity 101, thereby increasing the flow resistance of the oil. The effect of the regulating valve 40 on the oil is similar to or the same as that of the damping valve 20. In some embodiments, a second joint 1221 is provided on the side wall of the second cylinder body 12 at a position corresponding to the second connecting hole 122, and the regulating valve 40 is sealed and connected to the second joint 1221.
[0050] The piston 15 is movably disposed in the third cylinder body 13. The piston 15 includes a piston rod 151 and a piston head 152 connected to the piston rod 151. The third chamber 103 is divided into a sixth chamber 106 and a seventh chamber 107 by the piston 15. The sixth chamber 106 is located on the side of the piston head 152 facing the piston rod 151, and the seventh chamber 107 is located on the side of the piston head 152 away from the piston rod 151. The side walls of the two opposite ends of the third cylinder body 13 are also provided with a first oil hole 131 and a second oil hole 132. The sixth chamber 106 is connected to the fourth chamber 104 through the first oil hole 131. The seventh chamber 107 is connected to the fifth chamber 105 through the second oil hole 132.
[0051] The shock absorbing device 100 further includes a bottom valve 16 disposed at the end of the cylinder structure 10. The bottom valve 16 is disposed at a side of the seventh chamber 107 away from the sixth chamber 106. The bottom valve 16 is fixedly connected to the ends of the second cylinder 12 and the third cylinder 13. The bottom valve 16 is provided with a bottom valve return channel 161 connecting the first chamber 101 and the seventh chamber 107. The bottom valve 16 includes a bottom valve return valve plate 1611 disposed at a side facing the seventh chamber 107, and the bottom valve return valve plate 1611 covers the opening of the bottom valve return channel 161 facing the seventh chamber 107. When the oil pressure in the first chamber 101 is greater than the oil pressure in the seventh chamber 107, the bottom valve return valve plate 1611 is flushed open, and the oil in the first chamber 101 enters the seventh chamber 107 through the bottom valve return channel 161. When the oil pressure in the seventh chamber 107 is greater than the oil pressure in the first chamber 101 , the bottom valve return valve disc 1611 is pressed against the bottom valve 16 , and the bottom valve return channel 161 is closed by the bottom valve return valve disc 1611 .
[0052] When the shock absorber 100 is compressed, the piston rod 151 pushes the piston head 152 to move from the sixth chamber 106 to the seventh chamber 107, the volume of the sixth chamber 106 increases, the oil pressure in the sixth chamber 106 decreases, the volume of the seventh chamber 107 decreases, and the oil pressure in the seventh chamber 107 increases. The oil in the seventh chamber 107 enters the fifth chamber 105 through the second oil hole 132, and the oil in the fifth chamber 105 enters the regulating valve 40 through the second connecting hole 122. The regulating valve 40 damps the oil, that is, increases the flow resistance of the oil, thereby providing compression damping for the shock absorber 100. After the damping effect, the oil flows out of the regulating valve 40 and flows into the first chamber 101. When the pressure of the oil in the first cavity 101 is greater than a threshold value, the oil in the first cavity 101 enters the first fluid channel 3121 from the connecting hole 214, and pushes the one-way valve plate 33 toward the direction of the damping valve body 220. The one-way valve plate 33 is spaced from the second abutting portion 312, and the oil flows into the first cavity 2131 through the first fluid channel 3121. The oil in the first cavity 2131 flows into the fourth cavity 104 through the second fluid channel 3122 and the third fluid channel 321. The oil in the fourth cavity 104 finally flows into the sixth cavity 106 through the first oil hole 131, thereby replenishing the oil in the sixth cavity 106.
[0053] When the shock absorbing device 100 is restored or stretched, the piston rod 151 drives the piston head 152 to move from the seventh chamber 107 to the sixth chamber 106, the volume of the seventh chamber 107 increases, the oil pressure in the seventh chamber 107 decreases, the volume of the sixth chamber 106 decreases, and the oil pressure in the sixth chamber 106 increases. The oil in the sixth chamber 106 enters the fourth chamber 104 through the first oil hole 131, and the oil in the fourth chamber 104 flows into the first cavity 2131 through the third fluid channel 321 and the second fluid channel 3122. Due to the stop of the one-way valve plate 33, the oil cannot flow out of the first cavity 2131 from the first fluid channel 3121. Therefore, the oil in the first cavity 2131 will push the valve core 23 to move away from the end cover 22. A damping port is formed between the valve core 23 and the end cover 22. The oil in the first cavity 2131 passes through the liquid inlet channel 221, the damping space and the liquid outlet channel 241 in sequence and then enters the second cavity 2132. When the oil passes through the damping port, the flow area is reduced due to the damping port, and the flow resistance of the oil becomes larger, thereby providing restoring damping for the shock absorbing device 100. The oil in the second cavity 2132 flows into the first volume 101 through the first sub-channel 3231 and the second sub-channel 216. When the oil pressure in the first chamber 101 is greater than the opening pressure of the bottom valve return valve plate 1611, the oil pushes open the bottom valve return valve plate 1611, and the oil in the first chamber 101 flows into the seventh chamber 107 through the bottom valve return channel 161, thereby replenishing the oil in the seventh chamber 107.
[0054] Compared with a shock absorbing device in which a reflux passage from the seventh chamber to the sixth chamber is arranged on the piston, the shock absorbing device 100 in the embodiment of the present application provides a reflux passage for the oil by arranging a one-way valve body 30 on the damping valve 20 connected to the first connecting hole 121. During the compression stroke of the shock absorbing device 100, all the oil can pass through the damping of the damping valve 20, thereby improving the accuracy of the damping adjustment of the shock absorbing device 100 and better adjusting the working performance of the shock absorbing device 100.
[0055] In some embodiments, the shock absorbing device 100 further includes a piston overpressure channel 1521 provided on the piston 15 and a piston overpressure valve plate 1522 provided on the side of the piston head 152 facing the piston rod 151. The piston overpressure channel 1521 is used to connect the seventh volume chamber 107 and the sixth volume chamber 106. The piston overpressure valve plate 1522 covers the opening of the piston overpressure channel 1521 on the side facing the piston rod 151. When the compression force applied to the shock absorbing device 100 exceeds a preset value, the oil in the seventh volume chamber 107 will flush the piston overpressure valve plate 1522, so that the oil in the seventh volume chamber 107 is released into the sixth volume chamber 106 through the piston overpressure channel 1521, thereby preventing the third cylinder body 13 from being damaged due to excessive oil pressure. Among them, in the shock absorbing device in which a reflux passage from the seventh chamber to the sixth chamber is set in the piston, since the reflux passage needs to serve as a reflux passage for the oil, the stiffness of the valve plate on the reflux passage can only be set to a relatively small value, otherwise it will cause difficulty in oil reflux, resulting in the shock absorbing device being unable to work normally. In the present application, by setting a one-way valve body 30 in the mounting seat 21, the one-way valve body 30 provides a reflux passage for the oil, so the shock absorbing device 100 can set the stiffness of the piston overpressure valve plate 1522 to a relatively large value, that is, increase the opening pressure of the piston overpressure valve plate 1522, so as to better play the role of the piston overpressure valve plate 1522 in avoiding overloading of the shock absorbing device 100, and improve the safety and reliability of the shock absorbing device 100.
[0056] In some embodiments, the bottom valve 16 is further provided with a bottom valve overpressure channel 162 for connecting the seventh volume chamber 107 and the first volume chamber 101, and a bottom valve overpressure valve plate 1621 disposed on the side of the bottom valve 16 away from the piston 15. The bottom valve overpressure valve plate 1621 covers the opening of the bottom valve overpressure channel 162 away from the piston 15. When the compression force applied to the shock absorber 100 exceeds a preset value, the oil in the seventh volume chamber 107 will flush the bottom valve overpressure valve plate 1621, and the oil in the seventh volume chamber 107 will be released into the first volume chamber 101 through the bottom valve overpressure channel 162, thereby preventing the third cylinder 13 from being damaged due to excessive oil pressure.
[0057] In some embodiments, a check valve body 30 is provided in the regulating valve 40. The regulating valve 40 includes a regulating valve body and a check valve body 30. The check valve body 30 is sandwiched between the regulating valve body and the mounting seat of the regulating valve 40. Among them, the structure of the regulating valve 40 can be the same as or similar to the damping valve 20. The first volume 101 is also connected to the fifth volume 105 through the check valve body 30 in the regulating valve 40, that is, the oil in the first volume 101 can flow into the fifth volume 105 through the check valve body 30 in the regulating valve 40, while the oil in the fifth volume 105 cannot flow into the first volume 101 through the second check valve. In the compression stroke of the shock absorber 100, the oil in the seventh volume 107 enters the regulating valve 40 through the second oil hole 132 and the fifth volume 105. Since the oil is stopped by the one-way valve disc 33 of the one-way valve body 30 in the regulating valve 40, the oil will push open the valve core of the regulating valve 40 and flow out from the damping port of the regulating valve 40 into the first cavity 101. The oil in the first cavity 101 pushes open the one-way valve disc 33 of the one-way valve body 30 in the damping valve 20, and passes through the first cavity 2131, the second fluid channel 3122, the third fluid channel 321, the fourth cavity 104, the first oil hole 131 in sequence, and finally flows into the sixth cavity 106. In the recovery stroke of the shock absorber 100, the oil in the sixth cavity 106 passes through the first oil hole 131, the fourth cavity 104, the third fluid channel 321 and the second fluid channel 3122 in sequence and enters the first cavity 2131. As the oil is stopped by the one-way valve disc 33 of the one-way valve body 30 in the damping valve 20, the oil will push open the valve core 23 of the damping valve 20, flow into the second cavity 2132 from the damping port of the damping valve 20, and flow into the first cavity 101 through the first sub-flow channel 3231 and the second sub-flow channel 216. The oil in the first cavity 101 pushes open the one-way valve disc 33 of the one-way valve body 30 in the regulating valve 40, and passes through the second connecting hole 122, the fifth cavity 105 and the second oil-passing hole 132 in sequence, and finally flows into the seventh cavity 107. Among them, after the one-way valve body 30 is set in the regulating valve 40, the one-way valve body 30 in the regulating valve 40 can provide a reflux path for the oil during the recovery process of the shock absorber 100, and the bottom valve reflux channel 161 does not need to serve as a reflux path for the oil, so the stiffness of the bottom valve reflux valve plate 1611 can be increased, so that the bottom valve reflux valve plate 1611 can be used as a safety valve plate during the recovery overload of the shock absorber 100, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the shock absorber 100. In some embodiments, the damping valve 20 and / or the regulating valve 40 can be set in multiple numbers to improve the shock absorption capacity of the shock absorber 100.
[0058] In some embodiments, the shock absorbing device 100 further includes a bottom cover 17 and a top cover 18 disposed at opposite ends of the cylinder structure 10. The bottom cover 17 is disposed on a side of the cylinder structure 10 close to the bottom valve 16 and is fixedly connected to the first cylinder body 11. The bottom cover 17 and the first cylinder body 11 can be fixed together by means of screw connection, welding, clamping, etc. The bottom cover 17 and the bottom valve 16 are arranged at intervals to form a connecting cavity connected to the first cavity 101, and the bottom valve reflux channel 161 is connected to the connecting cavity. A fork arm 171 is connected to the side of the bottom cover 17 away from the bottom valve 16, and the fork arm 171 is used to connect with other components, so as to connect the shock absorbing device 100 with the component. The top cover 18 includes a connecting sleeve 181, an end plate 182, a guide sleeve 183, a guide seal 184 and an oil seal 185. The connecting sleeve 181 is fixedly connected to the first cylinder body 11, and the connecting sleeve 181 and the first cylinder body 11 can be fixed together by means of screw connection, welding, clamping, etc. The end plate 182 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting sleeve 181 away from the first cylinder body 11. The end plate 182 is provided with a through hole for the piston rod 151 to extend out. The guide sleeve 183 is arranged on the side of the end plate 182 facing the first cylinder body 11, and is fixedly connected to the second cylinder body 12 and the third cylinder body 13 respectively, and closes the end of the second cylinder body 12 and the third cylinder body 13 away from the bottom valve 16. The guide seal 184 is arranged between the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 181 and the guide sleeve 183. The oil seal 185 is arranged between the guide sleeve 183 and the end plate 182. The guide sleeve 183 and the oil seal 185 are respectively provided with a through hole for the piston rod 151 to extend out. The guide sleeve 183 is used to guide the piston rod 151 so that it extends or retracts along the axial direction of the cylinder structure 10. The oil seal 185 is used to seal the piston rod 151 to prevent oil from leaking out of the third cavity 103 from the connection between the piston rod 151 and the end plate 182 .
