[0045] Example 1
[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 In one embodiment of the utility model, a shock absorbing suspension system is also provided, comprising:
[0047] The front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 is provided with a first piston 101, wherein the first piston 101 forms a first piston upper chamber 102 and a first piston lower chamber 103 in the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10;
[0048] The rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 is provided with a second piston 201, wherein the second piston 201 forms a second piston upper chamber 202 and a second piston lower chamber 203 in the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20;
[0049] The first pipeline 30 is connected to the first electric control valve 301;
[0050] The second pipeline 40 is connected to the first damping adjustment valve 401, the second electric control valve 403, the third electric control valve 404 and the second damping adjustment valve 406. The second pipeline 40 is provided with a first return oil pressure tank 402, and the first return oil pressure tank 402 is respectively connected to the first damping adjustment valve 401 and the second electric control valve 403. The second pipeline 40 is provided with a second return oil pressure tank 405, and the second return oil pressure tank 405 is respectively connected to the third electric control valve 404 and the second damping adjustment valve 406. The second return oil pressure tank 405 is respectively connected to the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203;
[0051] A third pipeline 50 is connected to the fourth electrically controlled valve 501 and the fifth electrically controlled valve 502, and the third pipeline 50 is provided with a fourth pipeline 60 connected thereto;
[0052] A high-pressure air pump 70, wherein the high-pressure air pump 70 is connected to the third pipeline 50 and the fourth pipeline 60 respectively;
[0053] The high-pressure oil pump 80 is connected to the third pipeline 50 and the second pipeline 40 respectively.
[0054] When the front wheel encounters an obstacle and moves upward violently, the existing technology will cause the front of the car to bounce higher and the rear suspension to remain unchanged. When the rear wheel encounters an obstacle or protrusion, the rear of the car body will rise very high while the front of the car body will remain relatively unchanged, which will produce angular vibration, that is, a reciprocating motion of rising and falling at the front.
[0055] Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment of the utility model, the third pipeline 50 and the fourth pipeline 60 on the left together with the first return oil pressure tank 402 and the second return oil pressure tank 405 can be controlled by the sixth electrically controlled valve 503 and the seventh electrically controlled valve 601. The high-pressure air pump 70 introduces high-pressure gas into the first return oil pressure tank 402 and the second return oil pressure tank 405 through the third pipeline 50 and the fourth pipeline 60 on the left, and the sixth electrically controlled valve 503 and the seventh electrically controlled valve 601 can be closed after the high-pressure gas required by the setting is introduced. The high-pressure air pump 70 fills the first piston upper chamber 102 and the second piston upper chamber 202 with high-pressure gas through the third pipeline 50 and the first pipeline 30 connected thereto. In this process, the fifth electrically controlled valve 502 and the first electrically controlled valve 301 are opened, and the fourth electrically controlled valve 501 is closed. Thereby, the first piston 101 can support the wheel downward relative to the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10, and the second piston 201 can support the wheel downward relative to the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20, while the second pipeline 40 and the second electric control valve 403 and the third electric control valve 404 can ensure the balance of the air pressure of the first return oil pressure tank 402 and the second return oil pressure tank 405, thereby improving the balance of the buffering and shock absorbing effect. It can be seen that through the above-mentioned scheme, the sixth electric control valve 503, the seventh electric control valve 601 and the high-pressure air pump 70 cooperate with each other to flexibly adjust the air pressure value of the high-pressure gas in the first piston upper chamber 102 and the second piston upper chamber 202, thereby adjusting the buffering and shock absorbing effect of the suspension to meet the needs of different road conditions, which is beneficial to improving the user's driving experience and improving the texture of the entire vehicle.
[0056] Secondly, the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 and the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 are connected through part of the first pipeline 30, which can reduce the angular vibration of the vehicle body when the vehicle encounters severe road conditions. When the front wheel encounters an obstacle and moves upward violently, the first piston 101 can move upward through the first pipeline 30 to transmit part of the pressure to the second piston 201 of the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 to move downward, so that the rear part of the vehicle body rises at the same time.
[0057] In another application scenario of this embodiment, the high-pressure air pump 70 is provided with a sixth electrically controlled valve 503 and a seventh electrically controlled valve 601 on the pipelines communicating with the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the second oil return pressure tank 405, respectively;
[0058] Among them, the second electrically controlled valve 403, the third electrically controlled valve 404 and the fifth electrically controlled valve 502 are maintained in a normally closed state, so that when the sixth electrically controlled valve 503 and the seventh electrically controlled valve 601 are opened, the high-pressure air pump 70 runs and provides high-pressure gas to the first return oil pressure tank 402 or the second return oil pressure tank 405.
[0059] In another application scenario of the present embodiment, a second electrically controlled valve 403 and a third electrically controlled valve 404 are provided on the end of the second pipeline 40 that connects the first return oil pressure tank 402 with the second return oil pressure tank 405. The second electrically controlled valve 403 and the third electrically controlled valve 404 are used to control the connection and disconnection between the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203.
[0060] The second electrically controlled valve 403 and the third electrically controlled valve 404 are kept in a normally open state.
[0061] The second electrically controlled valve 403 can be used to regulate the closing or connection between the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the high-pressure oil pump 80 , and the third electrically controlled valve 404 can be used to regulate the closing or connection between the high-pressure oil pump 80 and the second oil return pressure tank.

[0063] Wherein, the fourth electrically controlled valve 501 is kept in a normally closed state.
[0064] The second pipeline 40 is connected to the third pipeline 50 , and the high-pressure oil pump 80 can be connected to both the second pipeline 40 and the third pipeline 50 , and the fourth electrically controlled valve 501 is used to regulate the connection or closing between the third pipeline 50 and the first pipeline 30 .
[0065] In another application scenario of the present embodiment, a first damping adjustment valve 401 and a second damping adjustment valve 406 are arranged in a pipeline connecting the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston 201 ; the first damping adjustment valve 401 is connected to the first piston lower chamber 103 , and the second damping adjustment valve 406 is connected to the second piston lower chamber 203 .
[0066] The hydraulic oil in the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 can be transported to the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the second oil return pressure tank 405 through the second pipeline 40, and then the second electric control valve 403 and the third electric control valve 404 are closed, and the hydraulic oil is transported to the first piston upper chamber 102 and the second piston upper chamber 202 through the third pipeline 50 and the first pipeline 30, thereby increasing the pressure to make the first piston 101 and the second piston 201 move downward to increase the chassis height; conversely, reducing the pressure to make the first piston 101 and the second piston 201 move upward to reduce the chassis height
[0067] In another application scenario of this embodiment, a first electrically controlled valve 301 is provided in the pipeline connecting the first piston upper chamber 102 and the second piston upper chamber 202 , and the first pipeline 30 is connected between the fourth electrically controlled valve 501 and the fifth electrically controlled valve 502 on the third pipeline 50 .
[0068] The first electrically controlled valve 301 can be used to regulate the connection or closure of the first piston upper chamber 102, and can also control the flow of hydraulic oil into and out of the first piston upper chamber 102. The fourth electrically controlled valve 501 and the fifth electrically controlled valve 502 are used to regulate the connection or closure of the third pipeline 50.
[0069] In another application scenario of the present embodiment, the first electrically controlled valve 301 may also function to cut off the oil circuit through the brake signal switch of the brake pedal when the vehicle is in emergency braking while driving at high speed, thereby preventing the pressure in the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 from being transmitted to the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 through the first pipeline 30 during braking, thereby preventing excessive nodding.
[0070] After closing the fourth electrically controlled valve 501 and the second electrically controlled valve 403, the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil storage tank can be transported to the second oil return pressure tank 405 through the high-pressure oil pump 80 to increase the pressure of the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 alone, thereby increasing the cargo capacity.
[0071] In another application scenario of this embodiment, the input end of the high-pressure oil pump 80 is connected to the output end of the hydraulic oil storage tank. The third pipeline 50 is connected to the first pipeline 30 , the second pipeline 40 and the fourth pipeline 60 .
[0072] In another application scenario of the present embodiment, the tops of the first return oil pressure tank 402 and the second return oil pressure tank 405 are both provided with inlet and exhaust valves, and the high-pressure air pump 70 delivers high-pressure gas from the tops of the first return oil pressure tank 402 or the second return oil pressure tank 405 through the inlet and exhaust valves.
[0073] In another application scenario, when the vehicle encounters a bumpy road, the elastic potential energy of the first piston upper chamber 102, the second piston lower chamber 202, the first return oil pressure tank 402, and the second return oil pressure tank 405 increases and pushes the first piston 101 and the second piston 201 downward violently. At this time, the oil in the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 converts the elastic potential energy into heat energy through the first damping adjustment valve 401 or the second damping adjustment valve 402, causing the first piston 101 and the second piston 201 to slowly move downward, thereby eliminating the bumps in the vehicle.
[0074] In one embodiment of the utility model, a vehicle suspension device is also provided, comprising: a vehicle frame and a shock-absorbing suspension system, wherein the shock-absorbing suspension system is mounted on the vehicle frame, and a piston push rod in the shock-absorbing suspension system is connected to the front and rear wheels respectively;

[0093] The structure of the right suspension pipe A2 is the same as that of the left suspension pipe A1.
[0094] In this application scenario, the four-axle suspension effect of eight wheels on the left and right sides can be achieved by combining the high-pressure oil pump and the high-pressure air pump with various pipelines and valves. In special road conditions, such as the left body roll, the switch connecting the control valve A and the left suspension pipeline A1 can also be used to add high-pressure gas to the left suspension pipeline A1, so that the piston in the left suspension pipeline A1 moves downward, and the body is raised to adjust the body roll caused by uneven roads. The adjustment method for the right body roll is similar.
[0095] Preferably, in the left suspension pipeline A1 and the right suspension pipeline A2 of Example 2-4, by designing the sixth control valve 503 and the seventh electric control valve 601 in the connecting pipelines of the front and rear high-pressure gas tanks of the left suspension pipeline A1 and the right suspension pipeline A2, the sixth control valve 503 and the seventh electric control valve 601 are closed during emergency braking to reduce the excessive nodding phenomenon of the vehicle; they are kept in a normally open state during normal driving; for special circumstances, such as slopes with an up and down slope of more than 10°, the sixth control valve 503 and the seventh electric control valve 601 can also be manually closed.
[0096] Example 5
[0097] Based on the shock absorbing suspension system of the aforementioned embodiments 1-4, a method for using the shock absorbing suspension system is also provided, including:
[0098] Step S10, open the first electrically controlled valve 301 and close the fourth electrically controlled valve, start the high-pressure air pump 70 to supply air to the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 and the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 respectively, so that the first piston 101 and the second piston 201 move downward; wherein the first piston 101 discharges the hydraulic oil and high-pressure air in the first piston lower chamber 103 to the first return oil pressure tank 402, and the second piston 201 discharges the hydraulic oil and high-pressure air in the second piston lower chamber 203 to the second return oil pressure tank 405;
[0099] Step S20, closing the first electrically controlled valve 301;
[0100] Step S3, open the second electrically controlled valve 403 and the third electrically controlled valve 404, start the high-pressure oil pump 80 to pressurize the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the second oil return pressure tank 405 respectively, so that the first piston 101 and the second piston 201 move upward; wherein, the hydraulic oil in the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the second oil return pressure tank 405 flows to the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 respectively, ensuring that the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 are filled with hydraulic oil;
[0101] Step S40 , closing the second electrically controlled valve 403 and the third electrically controlled valve 404 .
[0102] By using the method of this embodiment before loading goods or driving the vehicle, the high-pressure gas in the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 can be discharged to ensure that the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 are filled with hydraulic oil, so that the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 and the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 have better load-bearing capacity, thereby solving the problem of unbalanced load-bearing capacity between the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 and the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 caused by high-pressure gas.
[0103] In one application scenario of the present embodiment, the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the second oil return pressure tank 405 are both provided with a pressure relief valve. When the internal pressure is too high, part of the high-pressure gas can be discharged through the pressure relief valve to ensure the normal function of the first oil return pressure tank 402 and the second oil return pressure tank 405. The multiple electric control valves in the shock-absorbing suspension system remain in a normally closed state, and the electric control valves in the corresponding positions are opened only when the vehicle is running at a low speed and the shock absorption effect of the vehicle needs to be improved or the vehicle load capacity needs to be adjusted; when the vehicle is running at a high speed (such as a driving speed of 40km / h or above), the sixth electric control valve 503 and the seventh electric control valve 601 are closed to prevent the vehicle from tilting forward (nodding) due to sudden braking when the vehicle is running at high speed, thereby avoiding damage to the front of the vehicle.
[0104] In one embodiment, the method further includes detecting the pressure and hydraulic oil level in the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 and the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 through the first sensor group, detecting the load balance of the vehicle through the second sensor group, and adjusting the vehicle posture or vehicle height to which the current shock absorbing suspension system is applied based on the detection data of the first sensor group and the second sensor group. For example, before the vehicle is started, the hydraulic oil level in the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10 and the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20 is detected through the first sensor group. When the hydraulic oil level in the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 is low, the corresponding electric control valve and the high-pressure air pump 70 and the high-pressure oil pump 80 are started to ensure that the hydraulic oil in the first piston lower chamber 103 and the second piston lower chamber 203 is in a full state; and after confirming that the hydraulic oil is in a full state, the load of the vehicle is detected through the second sensor group, and the vehicle height or vehicle posture is adaptively adjusted by the application method of the shock absorbing suspension system of the aforementioned embodiments 1-4.
[0105] In this embodiment, the first sensor group includes at least a plurality of pressure sensors and a plurality of liquid level height sensors, and the plurality of pressure sensors and the plurality of liquid level height sensors are respectively arranged in the chambers of the front suspension hydraulic cylinder 10, the rear suspension hydraulic cylinder 20, the first return oil pressure tank 402 and the second return oil pressure tank 405; the second sensor group includes at least an acceleration sensor, a speed sensor and a height sensor, and the acceleration sensor, the speed sensor and the height sensor are symmetrically arranged in the front and rear or left and right directions of the vehicle.
[0106] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or directly / indirectly used in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
