Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle parts technology, and in particular to a shock absorber valve body and a shock absorber having the same. Background Technology

[0002] Shock absorbers are crucial vehicle components, playing a vital role in damping vibrations. Hydraulic shock absorbers, which use hydraulic fluid to reduce vehicle vibrations, are widely used due to their effective damping. However, when a vehicle traverses uneven surfaces, the fluid inside the hydraulic shock absorber forces the valve plates on the valve body open at a high frequency. This constant opening and closing of the valve body causes it to vibrate at a specific frequency. This vibration is transmitted to the vehicle body through the piston valve, piston rod, and upper support. The vehicle body amplifies this vibration, like a horn, into the passenger compartment, resulting in a poor driving experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a vibration damper valve body and a vibration damper having the same, which can effectively reduce vibration.

[0004] This utility model provides a vibration damper valve body, including a base, a blocking plate, and a valve plate. The blocking plate and the valve plate are mounted on the base. The blocking plate is disposed between the valve plate and the base. The valve plate includes a valve plate body and an elastic damping block. The elastic damping block is disposed on the valve plate body and extends downward to abut against the blocking plate.

[0005] Furthermore, the elastic damping block is an elastic damping block made of rubber.

[0006] Furthermore, the elastic damping block includes a damping block body and a pressure head. The damping block body is connected to the valve plate body, and the pressure head is connected to the damping block body and extends downward to abut against the blocking plate. A hollow portion is formed inside the pressure head.

[0007] Furthermore, the hollow portion is formed by the indentation of the lower surface of the pressure head in the direction of the vibration damping block body.

[0008] Furthermore, the area of ​​the cross section perpendicular to the axis of the pressure head gradually decreases from the direction closest to the damping block body to the direction furthest from the damping block body, and the bottom of the pressure head is a plane.

[0009] Furthermore, a mounting hole is formed on the valve plate body, and an annular mounting groove is provided on the damper body, with the inner wall of the mounting hole engaging with the mounting groove.

[0010] Furthermore, along the axial direction of the valve plate body, the mounting hole includes a first hole segment and a second hole segment. The diameter of the first hole segment is smaller than that of the second hole segment. The second hole segment is closer to the blocking plate than the first hole segment. When the damping block body is fixed in the mounting hole, the first hole segment engages in the mounting groove, and the inner sidewall of the second hole segment abuts against the outer sidewall of the damping block body.

[0011] Furthermore, there are multiple elastic damping blocks, which are distributed in a centrally symmetrical manner on the valve plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the damper valve body includes an elastic element, a second connecting shaft, and a connecting base. The connecting base is connected to the second connecting shaft, and the end of the second connecting shaft away from the connecting base is connected to the end of the base away from the blocking plate. The elastic element is sleeved on the second connecting shaft and connected between the connecting base and the base.

[0013] A vibration damper includes the aforementioned vibration damper valve body.

[0014] In summary, in this invention, when a vehicle travels on a bumpy road, the hydraulic fluid flows upward through the channels on the base, pushing open the baffle plate and entering the hydraulic chamber of the shock absorber. The valve plate on the upper surface of the baffle plate applies a downward pressure to the baffle plate, causing it to close quickly. In this invention, the elastic damping block abuts against the baffle plate from its upper surface. Therefore, the shock absorber valve body can close the baffle plate through the deformation of the elastic damping block, while simultaneously reducing the deformation of the valve plate itself, thereby reducing the vibration of the valve plate. In other words, the shock absorber valve body can effectively reduce vibration.

[0028] Figure 1 The figure shown is a cross-sectional structural diagram of the damper valve body provided in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 2 As shown Figure 1 Exploded view of the valve body of the middle shock absorber. Figure 3 As shown Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the valve plate. Figure 4 As shown Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the axial structure of a moderately elastic damping block. Figure 5 As shown Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of a moderately elastic vibration damper. (See diagram below.) Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the vibration damper valve body provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes a base 10, a blocking plate 20, a valve plate 30, and a first connecting shaft 40. The first connecting shaft 40 passes through the blocking plate 20 and the valve plate 30, and mounts the blocking plate 20 and the valve plate 30 on the base 10. The blocking plate 20 is disposed between the valve plate 30 and the base 10. The valve plate 30 includes a valve plate body 31 and an elastic damping block 32. The elastic damping block 32 is fixed on the valve plate body 31 and extends downward to abut against the blocking plate 20.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the vehicle travels on a bumpy road, the oil flows upward through the flow channel (not shown) on the base 10, pushing open the baffle 20 and then entering the hydraulic chamber of the shock absorber. The valve plate 30 on the upper surface of the baffle 20 applies a downward pressure to the baffle 20, causing the baffle 20 to close quickly. In this embodiment, the elastic damping block 32 is arranged so that it abuts against the baffle 20 from the upper surface of the baffle 20. Therefore, the shock absorber valve body can complete the closure of the baffle 20 through the deformation of the elastic damping block 32, while reducing the deformation of the valve plate body 31 itself, thereby reducing the vibration of the valve plate 30. That is, the shock absorber valve body can effectively reduce vibration.

[0030] Furthermore, the elastic damping block 32 can be an elastic damping block 32 made of rubber, preferably an elastic damping block 32 made of nitrile rubber.

[0031] The elastic damping block 32 includes a damping block body 321 and a pressure head 322. The damping block body 321 is connected to the valve plate body 31, and the pressure head 322 is connected to the damping block body 321 and extends downward to abut against the blocking plate 20. A hollow portion 3221 is formed inside the pressure head 322. The hollow portion 3221 makes the elastic damping block 32 easier to compress, and at the same time, the elastic damping block 32 is less likely to twist when the blocking plate 20 moves upward. Furthermore, the hollow portion 3221 also allows the stiffness of the elastic damping block 32 to be changed by altering the wall thickness of the pressure head 322, thereby improving the versatility of the valve plate 30.

[0032] Furthermore, the hollow portion 3221 is formed by the lower surface of the pressure head 322 recessed towards the damping block body 321. In other words, the lower surface of the pressure head 322 is open. When the damper is working, some oil can also enter into the recess to further dampen the valve plate 30.

[0033] Furthermore, the area of ​​the cross-section perpendicular to the axis of the pressure head 322 gradually decreases from the direction closest to the damping block body 321 to the direction furthest from the damping block body 321. The bottom of the pressure head 322, i.e., the side furthest from the damping block body 321, is flat. In other words, viewed from the side, the pressure head 322 is approximately frustum-shaped. This shape optimizes the stiffness curve of the elastic damping block 32 to better reduce the vibration of the valve plate 30.

[0034] Please continue to refer to Figures 3 to 5 A mounting hole 311 is formed on the valve plate body 31, and an annular mounting groove 3211 is provided on the damping block body 321. The inner side wall of the mounting hole 311 is engaged in the mounting groove 3211 to fix the elastic damping block 32.

[0035] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 Along the axial direction of the valve plate body 31, the mounting hole 311 includes a first hole section 3111 and a second hole section 3112. The diameter of the first hole section 3111 is smaller than the diameter of the second hole section 3112, and the second hole section 3112 is closer to the blocking plate 20 than the first hole section 3111. When the damping block body 321 is fixed in the mounting hole 311, the first hole section 3111 engages in the mounting groove 3211, and the inner sidewall of the second hole section 3112 abuts against the outer sidewall of the damping block body 321. With the above structure, the mounting hole 311 can better fix the elastic damping block 32 to prevent the elastic damping block 32 from twisting; furthermore, the contact between the second hole section 3112 and the outer sidewall of the damping block body 321 increases the sealing surface area between the elastic damping block 32 and the valve plate body 31, which can prevent oil from passing between the elastic damping block 32 and the valve plate body 31.

[0036] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 In this embodiment, there are multiple elastic damping blocks 32, which are arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner on the valve plate body 31, that is, the multiple elastic damping blocks 32 are symmetrical about the axis of the valve plate body 31. In this way, more stable vibration reduction can be provided.

[0037] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 The damper valve body further includes an elastic element 50, a second connecting shaft 60, and a connecting base 70. The connecting base 70 is connected to the second connecting shaft 60, and the end of the second connecting shaft 60 away from the connecting base 70 is connected to the end of the base 10 away from the blocking plate 20. The elastic element 50 is sleeved on the second connecting shaft 60 and connected between the connecting base 70 and the base 10. In this embodiment, the elastic element 50 can be a spring, while in other embodiments, the elastic element 50 can also be a spring sheet.

[0038] In summary, in this invention, when the vehicle travels on a bumpy road, the oil flows upward through the flow channel (not shown in the figure) on the base 10, pushing open the blocking plate 20 and then entering the hydraulic chamber of the shock absorber. The valve plate 30 on the upper surface of the blocking plate 20 applies a downward pressure to the blocking plate 20, causing the blocking plate 20 to close quickly. In this invention, the elastic damping block 32 abuts against the blocking plate 20 from its upper surface. Therefore, the shock absorber valve body can close the blocking plate 20 through the deformation of the elastic damping block 32, while reducing the deformation of the valve plate body 31 itself, thereby reducing the vibration of the valve plate 30. That is, the shock absorber valve body can effectively reduce vibration.
