Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of mechanical vibration reduction technology, specifically an active suspension leveling air spring device. Background Technology

[0002] In active suspension systems, air spring units typically consist of air spring airbags and coaxially mounted hydraulic shock absorbers, widely used for vehicle damping and ride height adjustment. They primarily operate by an electronic control unit that controls an air pump or distribution valve to inflate or deflate the airbag, thereby altering the internal pressure to support different vehicle loads or raising the vehicle's chassis height to adapt to complex road conditions. This structure utilizes the compressibility of air to achieve nonlinear stiffness characteristics, improving vehicle ride comfort and handling stability to a certain extent.

[0003] In existing integrated air spring shock absorbers, the piston connecting rod moves directly with changes in vehicle height. When the vehicle needs to significantly increase its height by inflating due to increased load or terrain requirements, the piston inside the shock absorber is forcibly pulled up and remains in the upper region of the hydraulic cylinder for an extended period. This causes the piston to deviate from its optimal neutral damping position. This deviation directly results in an extreme asymmetry in the effective working distance of the shock absorber during the recovery and compression strokes. When the vehicle vibrates over uneven road surfaces, due to insufficient effective travel on one side, the piston will rigidly collide with the end of the cylinder. This not only affects the comfort of passengers but also leads to premature fatigue damage to the internal sealing structure and valve system of the shock absorber, posing a safety hazard.

[0052] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment discloses an active suspension leveling air spring device, including an outer tube assembly 100, a floating assembly 200, a drive assembly 300, and an air suspension assembly 400.

[0054] The first feature of this invention is that, through a nested multi-layer cylinder structure, the physical structure of the vehicle height adjustment function and the damping generation mechanism of the shock absorber is decoupled. A movable rigid base is established below the shock absorber assembly using the bottom hydraulic medium, so that the shock absorber piston can always be passively maintained at the optimal hydrodynamic neutral point designed inside the floating working cylinder under any inflation height and any load condition, completely eliminating the risk of insufficient recovery stroke and piston hitting the top caused by vehicle body lifting.

[0055] The structure of feature one of the present invention is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the outer tube assembly 100 serves as the stator base of the device, with its geometric center defining a first central axis extending vertically. Its liquid reservoir 110 is a rigid cylindrical shape, closed at the bottom and open at the top. The bottom sidewall of the liquid reservoir 110 is provided with a medium interface for bidirectional communication with an external hydraulic source. A lower dynamic sealing ring 120 is embedded in the lower part of the inner wall of the liquid reservoir 110. Figure 4 As shown, the floating component 200, acting as the moving part of the device, is slidably inserted into the inner cavity of the liquid storage component 110 along the first central axis. The lower part of the outer wall of the floating component 200 maintains a sliding seal with the lower dynamic sealing ring 120, and the upper part of the outer wall of the floating component 200 maintains a sliding seal with the guide cover 130 fixed to the top of the liquid storage component 110. Figure 5 As shown, the bottom valve assembly 220 is rigidly fixed to the bottom opening of the floating member 210, as... Figure 6 As shown, the bottom valve assembly 220 includes a bottom cover 221, the outer periphery of which mates with a sealing ring 120, as... Figure 8 As shown, the bottom surface of the bottom cover 221 is a pressure-bearing surface, which, together with the inner bottom wall of the liquid reservoir 110, forms a hydraulic cavity 240 with variable volume, as shown. Figure 9 As shown, the drive assembly 300 includes a piston rod 310 and a shock-absorbing piston assembly 320, as... Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the upper end face of the shock-absorbing piston assembly 320 is provided with a restoring damping valve system 321 that controls the inner ring channel, and the lower end face is provided with a compression flow valve system 322 that controls the outer ring channel. The restoring damping valve system 321 is composed of multiple stacked elastic throttling valve plates, and the compression flow valve system 322 is composed of a one-way valve plate and a spring. The shock-absorbing piston assembly 320 is slidably disposed in the internal working chamber of the floating component 200, and divides the internal space into an upper working chamber 330 and a lower working chamber 340. The air suspension assembly 400 is connected between the outer tube assembly 100 and the piston rod 310.

[0056] The working principle of feature one of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, when the air suspension assembly 400 inflates and lifts the vehicle body, as... Figure 11 As shown, the piston rod 310 drives the shock-absorbing piston assembly 320 to move upward relative to the outer tube assembly 100, causing the shock-absorbing piston assembly 320 to deviate from the axial center position of the floating assembly 200, such as... Figure 8 As shown, at this time, an external hydraulic source injects incompressible fluid into the hydraulic chamber 240 via a medium interface. The fluid pressure acts on the bottom surface of the bottom cover 221 and generates an upward thrust, driving the entire floating assembly 200 to overcome friction and move relative to the reservoir 110 along the first central axis. By controlling the volume of fluid injected into the hydraulic chamber 240, the displacement distance of the floating assembly 200 along the first central axis is matched with the lifting height of the vehicle body, thereby forcing the floating assembly 200 to follow the shock absorber piston assembly 320 along the first central axis until the shock absorber piston assembly 320 is once again located inside the floating assembly 200 along the first central axis. At the fluid dynamic neutral point, during vehicle operation, the fluid enclosed in the hydraulic chamber 240 forms a rigid hydraulic column, providing a stable support base for the bottom valve assembly 220, ensuring the normal functioning of the shock absorption damping. During vehicle operation, the piston rod 310 drives the shock absorption piston assembly 320 to reciprocate at high frequency along the first central axis. During the recovery stroke, the high-pressure oil opens the recovery damping valve system 321 to generate recovery damping. During the compression stroke, the oil pushes open the compression flow valve system 322 and generates compression damping by the bottom valve assembly 220. At this time, the hydraulic column enclosed in the hydraulic chamber 240 provides rigid support for the floating component 200, ensuring the stability of the damping.

[0057] The second feature of this invention is that it can forcibly establish a high-load-bearing liquid lubricating film between the sliding interface of the floating component and the outer tube component, transforming the traditional metal-solid contact friction into shear friction inside the fluid, and using the load-sensitive characteristics of the leveling pressure to realize the automatic adjustment of the lubricating oil film pressure, thereby effectively preventing the mechanical structure from jamming and wearing when dealing with the huge lateral shear force caused by the vehicle's cornering roll or suspension geometric deformation.

[0058] The structure of feature two of this invention is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, a drainage hole 212 is machined in the lower wall of the floating component 210 of the floating assembly 200 or the side wall of the bottom valve assembly 220. The drainage hole 212 is a micron-level throttling channel. The inlet end of the drainage hole 212 penetrates the bottom surface of the bottom cover 221 and is directly connected to the high-pressure hydraulic chamber 240. The outlet end of the drainage hole 212 penetrates the outer wall of the floating component 210. The axial position of the outlet end of the drainage hole 212 is set above and adjacent to the lower dynamic sealing ring 120. A radial gap is left between the outer wall of the floating component 210 and the inner wall of the liquid storage component 110. This gap forms an annular oil storage chamber.

[0059] The working principle of feature two of this invention is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, when high-pressure fluid is filled into the hydraulic chamber 240 to support the floating assembly 200 and the vehicle body load, as Figure 7 As shown, a portion of the high-pressure fluid is pressurized and enters the drainage hole 212. When the fluid flows through the fine drainage hole 212, it undergoes throttling and pressure reduction, and seeps out from the outlet end into the fitting gap between the floating component 210 and the liquid storage component 110. The seeping fluid forces the formation of a hydrostatic lubricating oil film with a certain load-bearing capacity between the outer wall of the floating component 210 and the inner wall of the liquid storage component 110. When the vehicle turns or tilts, causing the floating component 200 to be subjected to lateral shear force, this hydrostatic lubricating oil film converts the dry friction between metals into internal friction in the liquid, significantly reducing the coefficient of friction and preventing the floating component 200 from mechanically seizing or creeping during axial adjustment.

[0060] The third feature of this invention is specifically manifested as follows: using the axial displacement of the floating component during the leveling process and the annular gap fluid fluctuation caused by vehicle driving bumps as a power source, the flow pattern of the fluid in the gap between the double-layer pipe walls is changed through a specific surface texture structure, the laminar thermal boundary layer attached to the metal wall is destroyed and a spiral turbulent vortex is induced, thereby improving the heat exchange coefficient of internal damping heat conduction to the outer pipe wall.

[0061] The structure of feature three of this invention is as follows: Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a guide groove 211 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the floating component 210 in the floating assembly 200 by machining. The guide groove 211 is a spiral groove with a preset depth and width. Its spiral angle is set according to the fluid viscosity. The guide groove 211 is distributed in the middle region of the outer surface of the floating component 210. The upper and lower regions of the outer surface of the floating component 210 are respectively retained as smooth cylindrical surfaces to cooperate with the guide cover 130 and the lower dynamic sealing ring 120. The space where the guide groove 211 is located is in the annular oil storage cavity between the floating component 210 and the liquid storage component 110. The annular oil storage cavity is filled with thermally conductive damping oil.

[0062] The working principle of feature three of this invention is as follows: Figure 1As shown, while the vehicle's movement causes the shock absorber piston assembly 320 to reciprocate, generating damping heat, as... Figure 5 As shown, or when the floating component 200 is leveling, the floating component 210 undergoes axial displacement relative to the liquid storage component 110. The oil in the annular oil storage cavity moves with the floating component 210 under the action of viscous force. The spiral structure of the guide groove 211 forces the axially flowing oil to undergo tangential deflection, thereby inducing a spiral turbulent vortex in the annular gap. This turbulent vortex destroys the laminar boundary layer attached to the outer wall of the floating component 210 and the inner wall of the liquid storage component 110, enhances the radial mixing of the fluid, accelerates the transfer of damping heat generated inside the floating component 210 to the metal wall of the liquid storage component 110, and finally dissipates it to the external environment, thus avoiding the reduction of damping performance of the internal oil due to thermal decay.

[0063] The fourth feature of this invention is specifically manifested in that: when the device faces a drop impact or hard impact from the road surface that exceeds the design limit, it can instantly respond to the pressure change and convert the leveling hydraulic chamber into a two-stage hydraulic buffer with energy absorption characteristics. Through controlled fluid throttling and overflow, it dissipates huge impact kinetic energy, thereby protecting the outer tube base and internal precision valve system from rigid collision damage under extreme working conditions where the physical stroke is exhausted.

[0064] The structure of feature four of this invention is as follows: Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a protective valve 230 is integrated at the bottom end of the floating assembly 200. The protective valve 230 is disposed in the side wall channel of the bottom cover 221 of the bottom valve assembly 220, as shown. Figure 7 As shown, the protection valve 230 includes a spring-loaded steel ball valve core or a cone valve core. The oil inlet side of the protection valve 230 is in fluid communication with the hydraulic chamber 240 at the bottom, and the oil outlet side of the protection valve 230 is in fluid communication with the annular oil storage chamber on the side of the floating member 210. The opening pressure threshold of the protection valve 230 is set to be higher than the maximum working pressure under normal leveling conditions.

[0065] The working principle of feature four of this invention is as follows: Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when a vehicle experiences a violent fall or the suspension is subjected to an instantaneous impact load exceeding its design limits, the fluid pressure in the hydraulic chamber 240 will instantly and rapidly increase and exceed the opening pressure threshold of the protection valve 230. At this time, the protection valve 230 will open rapidly, allowing the high-pressure fluid in the hydraulic chamber 240 to overflow and release pressure into the low-pressure annular oil reservoir. This pressure release process absorbs a huge amount of impact energy, allowing the floating component 200 to produce a controlled downward displacement under extreme force, thereby forming a hydraulic buffer effect and preventing the bottom structure or sealing component of the reservoir 110 from mechanical damage caused by rigid impact due to overload pressure.

[0066] The fifth feature of this invention is specifically manifested in the following ways: an air spring is used as the main static load support for the vehicle body and the height adjustment execution unit, while an internal hydraulic system is used to provide dynamic damping and stroke compensation. The two are coaxially integrated in structure and synergistically complementary in function through a shared piston rod and outer tube base.

[0067] The structure of feature five of this invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the air suspension assembly 400 is arranged around the first central axis on the upper exterior of the outer tube assembly 100 and the piston rod 310. The airbag cover 410 is rigidly locked to the threaded end of the piston rod 310 and serves as a mounting interface on the vehicle body side. Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the flexible airbag 420 has a foldable or rollable cylindrical structure. Its upper edge is sealed and pressed against the outer edge of the airbag cover 410, and its lower edge is sealed and fixed to the outer wall of the guide cover 130 of the outer tube assembly 100 or the upper outer wall of the liquid reservoir 110 by a clamping ring. Figure 14 As shown, the top outer surface of the airbag cover 410, the flexible airbag 420, and the outer tube assembly 100 together form a sealed air chamber 430. The airbag cover 410 is provided with a control nozzle that communicates with the air chamber 430, which is used to connect an external air source and a solenoid valve assembly.

[0068] The working principle of feature five of this invention is as follows: In the working state, compressed air is injected into the air chamber 430 through the airbag cover 410. The air pressure built up inside the air chamber 430 acts on the inner surface of the airbag cover 410, generating an upward lifting force to support the sprung mass of the vehicle. When the air chamber 430 is inflated, the flexible airbag 420 unfolds, pushing the piston rod 310 to move upward relative to the outer tube assembly 100, thereby increasing the vehicle height. At this time, the floating assembly 200 described in feature one moves upward synchronously under the drive of the bottom hydraulic chamber 240, so that the shock-absorbing piston assembly 320 buried deep inside the device will not hit the top of the floating assembly 200 due to the stretching of the airbag, ensuring that the hydraulic shock absorption system is always within the effective stroke range throughout the entire stroke range of the airbag.
