Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of CDC solenoid valve control systems, in particular to a CDC solenoid valve working current regulating circuit. Background Art
[0002] The CDC (Continuous Damping Control) solenoid valve is a damping control solenoid valve for the shock absorber of a car's suspension system. It primarily adjusts the valve opening by controlling the magnitude of the current, thereby changing the flow resistance of the oil in the shock absorber. Specifically, the shock absorber adds an intermediate chamber and a CDC solenoid valve between the upper and lower chambers to cooperate with the flow valve, extension valve, and compression valve to allow the oil to flow through the intermediate chamber. The current method of adjusting the operating current of the CDC solenoid valve is mainly for the controller to adjust the operating current of the CDC solenoid valve, thereby changing the size of the throttling channel to achieve continuous adjustment of the damping during extension and compression. However, the controller only adjusts the operating current of the CDC solenoid valve, which is a single adjustment, resulting in low adjustment accuracy and poor vehicle handling performance.
