[0055] The suspension system, chassis assembly and vehicle provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0056] With reference to Figure 1 The embodiments of the present application provide a suspension system, which comprises a first valve 1, an air compression device 2, an air storage device 3 and a suspension device 4. The first valve 1 is provided with a first interface 11, a second interface 12 and a third interface 13. The third interface 13 is in communication with the air storage device 3. The second interface 12 is in communication with the air inlet of the air compression device 2. The air outlet of the air compression device 2 is in communication with the suspension device 4 and the first interface 11. The third interface 13 is adapted to be connected with at most one of the first interface 11 and the second interface 12, so that the suspension system is in different working states.

[0057] Specifically, as Figure 1As shown, the suspension system provided by the embodiment of the utility model, including first valve 1, air compression device 2, air storage device 3, suspension device 4 and the air path connected between each device. First valve 1 is three-way valve, with three interfaces: first interface 11, second interface 12 and third interface 13, the form that first valve 1 can adopt includes but is not limited to electromagnetic three-way valve or electrically suspended rotary three-way valve. For example Figure 11 And Figure 13 The first valve 1 in the electromagnetic three-way valve is used, and the movement of the valve core is controlled by the electromagnetic force of the coil to realize different connection states of the valve. For example Figure 12 And Figure 14 The first valve 1 in the electromagnetic three-way valve is used, and the movement of the valve core is controlled by the electromagnetic force of the coil to realize different connection states of the valve. For example The air storage device 3 is a gas storage tank or a gas cylinder, which is used to store high-pressure gas for the suspension device 4. The suspension device 4 of the embodiment includes an air spring, which can be provided with multiple parallel air springs. When the suspension device 4 is filled with air, the air spring is elongated to lift the chassis height, and when the suspension device 4 is deflated, the air spring is compressed to lower the chassis height. The third interface 13 of the first valve 1 is in communication with the air storage device 3 for air intake and air outlet of the air storage device 3. The second interface 12 is in communication with the air inlet of the air compression device 2 for delivering high-pressure gas in the air storage device 3 to the air compression device 2 for re-compression. The first interface 11 is in communication with the air outlet of the air compression device 2, and the air outlet of the air compression device 2 and the first interface 11 are both in communication with the suspension device 4. The third interface 13 can be disconnected from the first interface 11 and the second interface 12, or the third interface 13 can be in communication with the first interface 11, or the third interface 13 can be in communication with the second interface 12.

[0058] In some embodiments, when the third interface 13 is disconnected from the first interface 11 and the second interface 12, as shown in Figure 4 And Figure 5 The air storage device 3 can be isolated from the entire suspension system, and at this time the suspension device 4 can be directly inflated or deflated. When the third interface 13 is connected to the first interface 11, the air storage device 3 can be pressurized or depressurized: specifically, as shown in Figure 2 The air compression device inhales atmospheric air to pressurize the air storage device 3; as shown in Figure 3 The air storage device 3 is depressurized through the pressure relief valve 5 to discharge gas into the atmosphere; as shown in Figure 7 The gas output by the suspension device 4 is re-compressed by the air compression device to pressurize the air storage device 3; as shown in Figure 8 The air storage device 3 directly pressurizes the suspension device 4; as shown in Figure 9As shown, the suspension device 4 is directly pressurized by the air storage device 3. When the third interface 13 is connected with the second interface 12, as shown in Figure 6 As shown, the gas in the air storage device 3 is delivered to the suspension device 4 after being re-compressed by the air compression device 2, and the suspension device 4 is pressurized.

[0059] Therefore, the embodiment of the utility model realizes the pressurization and pressure relief of the air storage device, and the two functions of re-compressing the gas in the air storage device by the air compression device, reduces the number of valves, reduces the product volume and production cost, reduces the control logic and product design process difficulty of the system, and improves the space utilization.

[0060] Optionally, referring to Figure 1 , the suspension system further comprises a pressure relief valve 5; the suspension device 4 and the first interface 11 are communicated with the pressure relief valve 5.

[0061] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , the pressure relief valve 5 of the embodiment adopts a two-position two-way electromagnetic valve, and the pressure relief valve 5 is communicated with the outside atmosphere. The pressure relief valve 5 is communicated with the suspension device 4 and the first interface 11, and is used to realize the exhaust pressure relief of the air storage device 3 or the suspension device 4.

[0062] Optionally, referring to Figure 1 , the suspension system further comprises a second valve 6 and a third valve 7; the second valve 6 is arranged on the gas path between the suspension device 4 and the pressure relief valve 5, and the second valve 6 is communicated with the first interface 11; the third valve 7 is arranged on the gas path between the suspension device 4 and the air inlet of the air compression device 2.

[0063] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , the second valve 6 and the third valve 7 are arranged on the main gas path of the suspension device 4, the second valve 6 is arranged on the gas path between the suspension device 4 and the pressure relief valve 5, that is, the air spring gas path total switch valve, and the pressure relief or pressurization of the suspension device 4 is realized by the on-off of the second valve 6. The third valve 7 is arranged on the gas path between the suspension device 4 and the air inlet of the air compression device 2, that is, the air spring gas re-compression switch valve, and the gas in the air storage device 3 is delivered to the air storage device 3 after being re-compressed by the air compression device 2, and the suspension device 4 is pressurized.

[0064] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the suspension device comprising the second valve 6 and the third valve 7 in the above embodiment is a closed suspension system. As shown in Figure 10 , Figure 13 and Figure 14The suspension device shown is an open suspension system, in which the second valve 6 and the third valve 7 are not installed. When the gas pressure of the suspension device 4 is lower than the gas pressure of the air storage device 3, if the suspension device 4 needs to release pressure, it can only release pressure to the atmosphere through the pressure relief valve 5, and cannot release pressure to the air storage device 3.

[0065] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 The suspension system further includes a fourth valve 41; the fourth valve 41 is disposed on the air line where the suspension device 4 is located, and the fourth valve 41 is connected to the second valve 6 and the third valve 7.

[0066] Specifically, the fourth valve 41 is an air spring gas switch solenoid valve. Each air spring has a fourth valve 41 installed in its gas path to control the opening and closing of each air spring's gas path. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the fourth valve 41 is connected to the second valve 6 and the third valve 7. Figure 10 As shown, the fourth valve 41 is connected to the first interface 11 of the first valve 1 and the pressure relief valve 5. A pressure sensor 42 is installed at the fourth valve 41 to detect the air pressure value of the suspension device 4 and feed it back to the control terminal so as to issue corresponding adjustment commands.

[0067] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 When the third interface 13 is disconnected from both the first interface 11 and the second interface 12: when the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are open, and the third valve 7 and the pressure relief valve 5 are closed, the air compression device 2 pressurizes the suspension device 4; when the second valve 6, the fourth valve 41 and the pressure relief valve 5 are open, and the third valve 7 is closed, the suspension device 4 releases pressure through the pressure relief valve 5.

[0068] Specifically, in this embodiment, the third interface 13 is disconnected from both the first interface 11 and the second interface 12, thus isolating the air storage device 3 from the entire suspension system. The suspension system has the following two operating states:

[0069] like Figure 4 As shown, when the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are open, and the third valve 7 and the pressure relief valve 5 are closed, the gas flow path is as follows: suspension system air inlet - air filter device 8 - air compressor device 2 - air dryer device 9 - second valve 6 - fourth valve 41 - suspension device 4. That is, the air compressor device 2 draws in gas from the atmosphere, compresses it, and directly pressurizes the suspension device 4 to increase the vehicle chassis height.

[0070] like Figure 5As shown, when the second valve 6, the fourth valve 41, and the pressure relief valve 5 are open, and the third valve 7 is closed, the gas flow path is as follows: suspension device 4 - fourth valve 41 - second valve 6 - air drying device 9 - pressure relief valve 5 - suspension system outlet, that is, the suspension device 4 directly releases pressure into the atmosphere to reduce the height of the vehicle chassis.

[0071] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 to Figure 9 When the third interface 13 is connected to the first interface 11; when the fourth valve 41 and the pressure relief valve 5 are closed, the air compressor 2 pressurizes the air storage device 3; when the pressure relief valve 5 is open and the fourth valve 41 is closed, the air storage device 3 releases pressure through the pressure relief valve 5; when the third valve 7 and the fourth valve 41 are open and the pressure relief valve 5 and the second valve 6 are closed, the suspension device 4 pressurizes the air storage device 3 through the air compressor 2; when the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are open and the pressure relief valve 5 and the third valve 7 are closed, the air storage device 3 pressurizes the suspension device 4, or the suspension device 4 pressurizes the air storage device 3.

[0072] Specifically, in this embodiment, the third interface 13 is connected to the first interface 11, allowing for pressurization or depressurization of the air storage device 3. The suspension system has the following five operating states:

[0073] like Figure 2 As shown, when the fourth valve 41 and the pressure relief valve 5 are closed, the suspension device 4 is disconnected. The gas flow path is as follows: suspension system air inlet - air filter device 8 - air compressor device 2 - air dryer device 9 - first interface 11 - third interface 13 - air storage device 3. That is, the air compressor device 2 draws in gas from the atmosphere, compresses it, and directly delivers it to the air storage device 3 to pressurize it. The high-pressure gas stored in the air storage device 3 can be used for subsequent pressurization of the suspension device 4. Compared with the embodiment where atmospheric pressure is directly compressed by the air compressor device 2 and then delivered to the suspension device 4, the pressurization range is smaller and the response speed is faster.

[0074] like Figure 3 As shown, when the pressure relief valve 5 is open and the fourth valve 41 is closed, the suspension device 4 is disconnected. The gas flow path is as follows: air storage device 3 - third interface 13 - first interface 11 - air drying device 9 - pressure relief valve 5 - suspension system outlet, that is, the air storage device 3 directly releases pressure into the atmosphere, reducing the pressure of the device.

[0075] like Figure 7As shown, when the third valve 7 and the fourth valve 41 are open, and the pressure relief valve 5 and the second valve 6 are closed, the gas flow path is as follows: suspension device 4 - fourth valve 41 - third valve 7 - air compressor 2 - air dryer 9 - first interface 11 - third interface 13 - air storage device 3. That is, the gas output by the suspension device 4 is compressed again by the air compressor 2 and then discharged to the air storage device 3. While lowering the vehicle chassis height, the air storage device 3 can make full use of the gas discharged by the suspension device 4 when it needs to be replenished with a certain amount of gas.

[0076] like Figure 8 As shown, when the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are open, and the pressure relief valve 5 and the third valve 7 are closed, when the air pressure in the air storage device 3 is greater than the air pressure in the suspension device 4, the gas flow path is as follows: air storage device 3 - third interface 13 - first interface 11 - second valve 6 - fourth valve 41 - suspension device 4, that is, the air storage device 3 outputs gas to the suspension device 4, realizing that the air storage device 3 directly pressurizes the suspension device 4.

[0077] like Figure 9 As shown, when the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are open, and the pressure relief valve 5 and the third valve 7 are closed, when the air pressure in the air storage device 3 is less than the air pressure in the suspension device 4, the gas flow path is as follows: suspension device 4 - fourth valve 41 - second valve 6 - first interface 11 - third interface 13 - air storage device 3, that is, the suspension device 4 outputs gas to the air storage device 3, realizing that the suspension device 4 directly pressurizes the air storage device 3.

[0078] It should be noted that, as Figure 10 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 When the suspension device shown is an open suspension system, the suspension system cannot achieve the above-mentioned... Figure 9 The working state shown is one of the seven working states that can be achieved, which will not be elaborated here.

[0079] Optionally, refer to Figure 6 When the third interface 13 is connected to the second interface 12, and when the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are open, and the pressure relief valve 5 and the third valve 7 are closed, the air storage device 3 pressurizes the suspension device 4 through the air compression device 2.

[0080] Specifically, as in the present embodiment, the third interface 13 is connected with the second interface 12, the second valve 6 and the fourth valve 41 are opened, the pressure relief valve 5 and the third valve 7 are closed, and the gas flow line is as follows: the air storage device 3-the third interface 13-the second interface 12-the air compression device 2-the air drying device 9-the second valve 6-the fourth valve 41-the suspension device 4. That is, the gas output by the air storage device 3 is compressed again by the air compression device 2 and then delivered to the suspension device 4 to pressurize the suspension device 4 and lift the vehicle body height. In this implementation, the power consumption of the air compression device 2 is lower, and the response speed of the suspension device 4 is faster.

[0081] Optionally, referring to Figure 1 , the suspension system further comprises an air filter device 8; the air filter device 8 is connected with the air inlet of the air compression device 2.

[0082] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , the air filter device 8 is arranged at the air inlet of the suspension system and connected with the air inlet of the air compression device 2, for filtering and purifying the gas to avoid pollution.

[0083] Optionally, referring to Figure 1 , the suspension system further comprises an air drying device 9; the first interface 11 and the suspension device 4 are connected with the air drying device 9 at the same time, and the air outlet of the pressure relief valve 5 and the air compression device 2 is connected with the air drying device 9 at the same time.

[0084] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , one side of the air drying device 9 is connected with the first interface 11 and the suspension device 4. The other side of the air drying device 9 is connected with the pressure relief valve 5 and the air outlet of the air compression device 2. The pressure relief valve 5 is an air outlet switch of the suspension system, and the pressure relief valve 5 and the air drying device 9 are connected through an air path. Since the suspension system compresses the gas, liquid droplets may be precipitated. In order to avoid the influence of the liquid droplets on the suspension adjustment performance of the vehicle, the air drying device 9 is arranged to remove the liquid droplets in the gas or the liquid droplets precipitated by the suspension system. The air drying device has a drying agent, and the drying agent can be regenerated through the pressure relief valve 5.

[0085] The embodiment of the utility model further provides a chassis assembly, comprising the suspension system of any one of the above-mentioned embodiments, reduce the volume of chassis assembly, improve the space utilization.

[0086] The embodiment of the utility model further provides a vehicle, comprising the suspension system or chassis assembly of any one of the above-mentioned embodiments, which is beneficial to realize the lightness of the vehicle.
