Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improvement of a shock absorber.
- some shock absorbers have a hydraulic cushion, and the hydraulic cushion absorbs and relaxes impact energy when the shock absorber is fully extended or contracted.
- a hydraulic cushion described in JP2015-500970A is a rebound cushion that relieves shock at the time of maximum expansion of a shock absorber, and is provided on a case provided at the upper end of a cylinder and an outer periphery of a piston rod. And an annular ring that fits into the case when it approaches the most extended state, and a stopper that is fixed to the outer periphery of the piston rod on the side opposite to the case and restricts the movement of the ring toward the side opposite to the case.
- a throttle groove is formed at the end of the ring on the stopper side, and in the state where the ring is in contact with the stopper, a throttle passage by the throttle groove is formed between them.
- the ring is inserted into the case, the hydraulic cushion is activated, and the shock absorber is generated.
- the secondary damping force by the hydraulic cushion can be added to the damping force. Therefore, the damping force of the entire shock absorber can be increased in the vicinity of the maximum extension, and the impact energy at the maximum extension can be absorbed and relaxed.
- the stroke length of the ring that moves in the case is increased by increasing the axial length of the case, and the impact energy is reduced. It is preferable to gently absorb and relax.
- the stroke speed of the shock absorber is low in the normal stroke region where the shock absorber strokes during normal use of the shock absorber, such as when the vehicle travels on a good road. It is preferable to reduce the damping force when in the range.
- the inner periphery of the case and the outer periphery of the ring are in sliding contact with each other, so that a frictional force is generated between the case and the ring. Therefore, when the hydraulic cushion is operated, the frictional force is superimposed even in the low speed region, and the damping force in the low speed region of the shock absorber is increased. Furthermore, in order to reduce the secondary damping force in the low speed region when the hydraulic cushion is operated, it is preferable to increase the flow passage area of the throttle passage. However, the flow passage area of the throttle passage is constant, and if the flow passage area is sufficiently large, the secondary damping force in the high speed region is insufficient. For this reason, the flow passage area of the throttle passage cannot be sufficiently increased, and it is difficult to reduce the secondary damping force in the low speed region.
- the present invention reduces the damping force when the stroke speed of the shock absorber is in the low speed range and reduces the damping force in the high speed range even if the impact energy at the time of maximum expansion or contraction can be gently absorbed and relaxed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a shock absorber that can be enlarged and that can improve the ride comfort of the vehicle when the shock absorber is mounted on a vehicle.

- a liquid storage chamber R3 is formed between the cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder 10. Liquid is stored in the liquid storage chamber R3, and gas is sealed above the liquid surface.
- the rod guide 11 closes the upper end opening of the outer cylinder 10 together with the seal member 14, and prevents the liquid and gas in the outer cylinder 10 from leaking outside.

Then, the liquid in the extension side chamber R1 opens the extension side valve 20, and moves to the compression side chamber R2 through the extension side passage 2a. Further, when the shock absorber D is extended, the suction valve 40 is opened, and the liquid corresponding to the volume of the piston rod retreated from the cylinder 1 is supplied from the liquid reservoir R3 to the pressure side chamber R2 through the suction passage 4a. Resistance to the flow of the liquid passing through the expansion side passage 2 a is given by the expansion side valve 20. Therefore, when the shock absorber D is extended, the pressure in the expansion side chamber R1 rises, and the shock absorber D exhibits the main expansion side damping force that suppresses the extension operation.
- the shock absorber D when the shock absorber D is retracted as the piston rod 3 enters the cylinder 1, the piston 2 moves downward in the cylinder 1 to compress the compression side chamber R2. Then, the liquid in the pressure side chamber R2 opens the pressure side valve 21 and moves to the extension side chamber R1 through the pressure side passage 2b. Further, when the shock absorber D contracts, the liquid corresponding to the volume of the piston rod that has entered the cylinder 1 opens the damping valve 41, and the liquid in the pressure side chamber R2 passes through the damping passage 4b and is discharged to the liquid storage chamber R3. A resistance is given by the damping valve 41 to the flow of the liquid passing through the damping passage 4b.

- the ring member 6 is an annular member having a split in a part in the circumferential direction, and is formed in a C shape when viewed in the axial direction.
- annular in this specification refers to a shape including not only a shape including an O-ring that is not continuous in the circumferential direction but also a C-ring having a split in a part in the circumferential direction.
- the ring member 6 has an annular (C-annular in this embodiment) ring body 6a and a plurality of protrusions 6b provided on the inner periphery of the ring body 6a.
- a gap 60 is formed between both ends in the circumferential direction of the ring body 6a.
- the ring member 6 is formed of an elastic body having elasticity. For this reason, the ring member 6 is configured to be capable of expanding the diameter, and when the diameter of the ring member 6 is increased, the ring member 6 tries to return to its original shape due to its own elasticity. That is, when the diameter of the ring member 6 is increased, the ring member 6 exerts an elastic force in the direction of reducing the diameter of itself.
- the ring member 6 is formed of a resin material, and desirably is formed of a fiber reinforced resin in which fibers such as glass fibers and carbon fibers are blended with the resin material. Since the fiber reinforced resin has a relatively high strength and is excellent in dimensional stability, it is suitable as a material for the ring member 6.
- the material of the ring member 6 is not limited to a resin material.
- the protrusion 6b is provided with a total of three, that is, both ends in the circumferential direction of the ring body 6a (both sides of the joint gap 60) and the center in the circumferential direction. All of these protrusions 6b protrude from the inner periphery of the ring body 6a toward the center of the ring body 6a.
- the number and arrangement of the protrusions 6b can be changed as appropriate. For example, four or more protrusions 6b may be provided on the inner periphery of the ring body 6a, and the protrusions 6b may be provided at equal intervals along the circumferential direction of the ring body 6a.
- the plurality of protrusions 6b are desirably arranged so as to sandwich the holder 7 (piston rod 3) from the radial direction. Specifically, the plurality of protrusions 6b are arranged such that the force vectors acting on the holder 7 from the protrusions 6b substantially cancel each other without arranging all the protrusions 6b within an angle range smaller than 180 °. It is desirable. According to this, in the ring member 6, only the protrusion 6 b comes into contact with the holder 7 (guide portion 7 a described later), and the ring main body 6 a does not come into contact with the holder 7.
- the holder 7 includes a cylindrical guide portion 7a, an annular sheet portion 7b provided at one end in the axial direction of the guide portion 7a, and the other end in the axial direction of the guide portion 7a. And an annular retaining portion 7c provided.
- the holder 7 is fixed to the outer periphery of the piston rod 3 such that the seat portion 7b is relatively on the piston 2 side (lower side) and the retaining portion 7c is relatively on the case portion 5 side (upper side).
- the holder 7 has an annular claw portion 7d at the lower end.
- the holder 7 is fixed to the piston rod 3 and positioned by fitting a claw portion 7d into an annular groove 3a formed along the circumferential direction on the outer periphery of the piston rod 3.
- the method of attaching the holder 7 to the piston rod 3 is not limited to this, and can be changed as appropriate.
- the holder 7 may be fixed to the outer periphery of the piston rod 3 by press-fitting, screwing, welding, adhesion, or the like, or may be positioned using a snap ring or the like.
- the axial length of the guide portion 7 a is longer than the axial length of the ring member 6.
- the ring member 6 is mounted on the outer periphery of the guide portion 7a and between the seat portion 7b and the retaining portion 7c.
- the outer diameter of the guide portion 7a is formed to be slightly larger than the inner diameter of the ring member 6 in a no-load state (natural length state), and the ring member 6 has an allowance for the guide portion 7a.
- the inner diameter of the ring member 6 is the diameter of a circle connecting the tips of the protrusions 6b.
- the ring member 6 is slightly enlarged in diameter while being attached to the outer periphery of the guide portion 7a, and the protrusion 6b is pressed against the outer periphery of the guide portion 7a.
- the fastening allowance of the ring member 6 is set to such an extent that the movement of the ring member 6 in the axial direction relative to the guide portion 7a is not hindered. Therefore, the ring member 6 is movable in the axial direction (up and down) along the guide portion 7a, and rattling is suppressed. For this reason, generation
- a back pressure chamber P is formed between the outer periphery of the guide portion 7 a and the inner periphery of the ring member 6.
- the pressure in the back pressure chamber P acts in the direction of expanding the diameter of the ring member 6.
- the outer diameter of the ring member 6 in a state attached to the piston rod 3 and not receiving an external force such as the pressure in the back pressure chamber P is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the case portion 5.
- the throttle passage 61 throttles the flow of the liquid that moves inside and outside the case portion 5 partitioned by the ring member 6.
- the inner diameter of the cylinder body 1a (FIG. 1) is larger than the inner diameter of the case portion 5. For this reason, in a state where the ring member 6 is not inserted into the case portion 5, the liquid can freely move on the outer periphery of the ring member 6.
- the above-mentioned external force acting on the ring member 6 is a force applied to the ring member 6 from the outside of the ring member 6 in the attached state. That is, for example, as a reaction force of the tightening force when the ring member 6 tightens the guide portion 7a, a force applied to the ring member 6 at the time of attachment of the ring member 6, such as a force acting on the ring member 6 from the guide portion 7a. Not included. In other words, even when the ring member 6 is attached to the piston rod 3 and a load is applied between the ring member 6 and another member due to the elastic force of the ring member 6 itself. The ring member 6 is not regarded as receiving an external force.
- the external force acting on the ring member 6 does not include the initial pressure of the back pressure chamber P (the pressure of the back pressure chamber P when the shock absorber D is in a stationary state).
- a state in which the ring member 6 is in an attached state and is not subjected to the external force is simply referred to as “a state in which no external force is received”.
- the outer diameter of the seat portion 7b provided at the lower end of the guide portion 7a is the same as or slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the ring member 6 in a state where no external force is received.
- the outer diameter of the seat portion 7b is smaller than the outer diameter of the case portion 5 and larger than the inner diameter of the ring body 6a. Therefore, the ring member 6 is seated on the seat portion 7b. In a state where the ring member 6 is seated on the seat portion 7b, the ring body 6a contacts the seat portion 7b to prevent liquid from passing between them.
- the sheet portion 7b is provided so as to face the inside of the case portion 5 with the ring member 6 interposed therebetween. For this reason, when the ring member 6 enters the case portion 5 together with the holder 7, the liquid in the case portion 5 flows out of the case portion 5, and the ring member 6 is pushed down to be seated on the seat portion 7b. Therefore, when the ring member 6 enters the case portion 5, the liquid in the case portion 5 passes through the throttle passage 61 formed in the outer periphery of the ring member 6 or the outer periphery of the joint gap 60 of the ring member 6. It moves out of the case part 5 through the side.
- the outer diameter of the seat portion 7 b is the same as or slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the ring member 6 in a state where no external force is received, a gap formed between the seat portion 7 b and the case portion 5 passes through the throttle passage 61. There is no further restriction on the flow of liquid.
- the flow of the liquid that does not pass through the throttle passage 61 but passes through the joint gap 60 and moves to the outside of the case unit 5 is throttled by the gap between the sheet unit 7 b and the case unit 5. Thereby, the flow rate of the liquid passing through the joint gap 60 is limited, and the pressure in the case portion 5 can be increased by the resistance when the liquid passes through the throttle passage 61.
- the pressure in the case portion 5 is propagated to the back pressure chamber P on the inner periphery of the ring member 6, and the pressure in the back pressure chamber P becomes equal to the pressure in the case portion 5. That is, when the pressure in the case part 5 on the upstream side increases as the liquid flows through the throttle passage 61, the pressure in the back pressure chamber P also increases. Further, in this state where the liquid is flowing through the throttle passage 61, the pressure in the throttle passage 61 communicating with the outside of the case portion 5 is lower than the pressure in the back pressure chamber P. Therefore, a differential pressure is generated between the pressure in the back pressure chamber P on the inner peripheral side of the ring member 6 and the pressure in the throttle passage 61 on the outer peripheral side.
- the inner peripheral load causes the ring member 6 to be urged in the diameter expansion direction.
- the force obtained by multiplying the area of the outer periphery of the ring member 6 by the pressure of the throttle passage 61 is the outer peripheral load
- the ring member 6 is contracted by the outer peripheral load and the spring load resulting from the elasticity of the ring member 6 itself. Energized in the radial direction.
- the inner peripheral load acting on the ring member 6 is the elasticity of the ring member 6 itself.
- the spring load resulting from the above and the load on the outer peripheral side are kept smaller than the combined load. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the throttle passage 61 is maintained in an open state.
- the inner peripheral load acting on the ring member 6 is the elasticity of the ring member 6 itself. Exceeds the combined load of the spring load and the outer peripheral load due to. Thereby, the diameter of the ring member 6 is increased, and the flow passage area of the throttle passage 61 is reduced as the diameter of the ring member 6 is increased. 3A and 3B, when the diameter of the ring member 6 is increased until the outer periphery of the ring member 6 comes into contact with the inner periphery of the case portion 5, the throttle passage 61 is closed by the ring member 6.
- the throttle passage is formed in a portion where the gap formed between the seat portion 7 b and the case portion 5 and the joint gap 60 of the ring member 6 overlap in the axial direction.
- a throttle hole 62 having a larger degree of throttle (smaller channel area) than 61 is formed. That is, the outer diameter of the sheet portion 7b is such that the flow of the liquid passing through the throttle passage 61 is not further throttled by the gap between the sheet portion 7b and the case portion 5, and the inner diameter of the ring body 6a is closed when the throttle passage 61 is closed.
- the diameter of the throttle hole 62 is larger than that of the throttle passage 61 and can be formed with the joint gap 60 of the ring member 6.
- the back pressure chamber P becomes a part of the return passage 63 for supplying liquid from the outside to the inside of the case portion 5.
- the return passage 63 allows the liquid to pass through with relatively little resistance. For this reason, when the ring member 6 with which the return passage 63 is allowed to communicate is retracted, the differential pressure inside and outside the case portion 5 with the ring member 6 as a boundary does not increase, and the difference between the inner peripheral side and the outer peripheral side of the ring member 6 The pressure does not increase. Therefore, when the ring member 6 retreats from the case portion 5, the back pressure does not stand, the back pressure chamber P does not perform its function, and the ring member 6 is maintained in the state where the throttle passage 61 is opened.
- the liquid outside the case portion 5 causes the return passage 63, the throttle passage 61 formed on the outer periphery of the ring member 6, or the outer peripheral side of the joint gap 60 of the ring member 6. To move into the case part 5.
- the shape of the retaining portion 7c provided at the upper end of the guide portion 7a is tapered such that the outer diameter gradually decreases toward the lower end.
- the outer diameter of the lower end which is the minimum inner diameter in the retaining portion 7c, is larger than the inner diameter of the ring member 6 in a state where no external force is received, and smaller than the inner diameter of the ring body 6a. For this reason, when the ring member 6 moves upward relative to the holder 7 and the protrusion 6b contacts the lower end of the retaining portion 7c, further upward movement of the ring member 6 is restricted.
- the gap formed between the ring member 6 and the cylinder 1 is wide, so that there is an increased risk that the ring member 6 will be detached from the holder 7 at that portion. Since the outer diameter of the upper end portion of the portion 7c is increased, it is possible to reliably prevent the ring member 6 from being detached from the holder 7. Specifically, the outer diameter of the upper end portion that is the maximum outer diameter in the retaining portion 7c is preferably the same as or slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the seat portion 7b.
- an annular cushion member 8 is provided on the outer periphery of the piston rod 3 and above the retaining portion 7c.
- the cushion member 8 is formed of an elastic body such as rubber and is compressed between the retaining portion 7c and the rod guide 11 when the shock absorber D is fully extended, and exhibits an elastic force corresponding to the compression amount.
- the cushion member 8 may be formed of a material other than rubber, such as a coil spring, and the cushion member 8 may be eliminated.
- the shock absorber D When the shock absorber D is extended, the shock absorber D exhibits a main expansion side damping force (primary damping force) due to the resistance of the expansion side valve 20 that is the expansion side damping element.
- primary damping force When the stroke amount of the shock absorber D toward the extending side becomes larger than a predetermined amount, the ring member 6 enters the case portion 5, and resistance is given to the flow of liquid from the inside to the outside of the case portion 5. Therefore, a secondary damping force due to the hydraulic cushion C1 due to the resistance is added to the main extension side damping force.
- the ring member 6 enters the case portion 5 and the stroke speed toward the extension side of the shock absorber D is in the low speed region, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the ring The throttle passage 61 formed between the member 6 and the case portion 5 is maintained in an open state. Therefore, the liquid in the case part 5 can move out of the case part 5 through the throttle passage 61. In the low speed range, the liquid flows through the throttle passage 61 with relatively little resistance, so the differential pressure inside and outside the case portion 5 does not increase, and the secondary damping force by the hydraulic cushion C1 decreases.
- the ring member 6 When the ring member 6 enters the case portion 5 and the stroke speed toward the extension side of the shock absorber D is in the high speed range, the ring member 6 expands as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B. The diameter of the throttle passage 61 is closed. Then, since the throttle hole 62 is formed using the joint gap 60 of the ring member 6, the liquid in the case portion 5 moves out of the case portion 5 through the throttle hole 62. In the high speed region, the throttle hole 62 provides resistance to the liquid flow, so that the differential pressure inside and outside the case portion 5 increases, and the secondary damping force by the hydraulic cushion C1 increases.
- the throttle hole 62 is a passage having a larger degree of throttling than the throttle passage 61. For this reason, when the throttle passage 61 is closed due to an increase in the stroke speed, the damping coefficient of the hydraulic cushion C1 (ratio of the amount of change in the damping force with respect to the amount of change in the stroke speed) increases. Therefore, it is possible to increase the secondary damping force by the hydraulic cushion C1 in the high speed range and to apply the large secondary damping force to the main extension side damping force. Therefore, the extension side damping force of the entire shock absorber D is increased, and the impact energy can be absorbed and relaxed by the large extension side damping force.
- the case portion 5 is provided with a taper portion 5a.
- the degree of restriction of the restriction passage 61 increases as the stroke amount toward the extension side increases. For this reason, the pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the case portion 5 is likely to increase with an increase in the stroke amount toward the extension side, and the throttle passage 61 is easily closed.
- the throttle passage 61 is closed, the degree of throttling of the throttling hole 62 increases as the stroke amount to the extension side increases. For this reason, the damping coefficient of the hydraulic cushion C1 in the high speed region increases as the stroke amount toward the extension side increases.
- the hydraulic cushion C1 when the shock absorber D strokes to the extension side, the hydraulic cushion C1 operates on the boundary of the ring member 6 entering the case portion 5 and exhibits a secondary damping force. Can be added to the main extension side damping force.
- the magnitude of the secondary damping force by the hydraulic cushion C1 changes depending on the stroke speed (piston speed) of the shock absorber D, and is large in the high speed range and small in the low speed range. Further, the large secondary damping force in the high speed region changes depending on the stroke amount (piston position) of the shock absorber D, and increases as the stroke amount toward the extension side increases.
- the shock absorber D contracts, the shock absorber D exhibits the main compression side damping force due to the resistance of the damping valve 41 which is the compression side damping element.
- the ring member 6 in the case portion 5 retracts from the case portion 5.
- the liquid outside the case portion 5 flows into the case portion 5 and the ring member 6 is separated from the seat portion 7b to allow the return passage 63 to communicate as shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B.
- the throttle passage 61 formed between the ring member 6 and the case portion 5 is maintained in an open state. Therefore, the liquid flowing in from the outside to the inside of the case portion 5 can pass through the throttle passage 61 formed on the outer periphery of the ring member 6, the outer peripheral side of the joint gap 60 of the ring member 6, and the return passage 63. Further, when the ring member 6 is withdrawn from the case portion 5, even if the ring member 6 moves until it comes into contact with the retaining portion 7c, the retaining portion 7c does not block the communication of the return passage 63. The liquid can move through 63 without relatively resistance.
- the hydraulic cushion C1 is actuated to exert a secondary damping force when the stroke amount to the extension side of the shock absorber D is greater than or equal to a predetermined value. Only when the strokes to the expansion side. Even when the hydraulic cushion C1 operates in this way, when the stroke speed of the shock absorber D is in the low speed range, the secondary cushion added to the main damping force by the hydraulic cushion C1. The damping force can be reduced.
- the axial length of the case portion 5 is lengthened so that the shock energy at the time of the maximum expansion of the shock absorber D can be absorbed and relaxed. Even when the operating range in which C1 operates is incurred, the damping force does not become excessive when the stroke speed of the shock absorber D is in the low speed range. Thereby, the riding comfort of the vehicle can be improved.
- the stroke speed of the shock absorber D reaches a high speed range, such as when the vehicle travels on a rough road, the impact energy at the time of the maximum extension of the shock absorber D increases.
- the hydraulic cushion C1 operates in a high speed region, the ring member 6 expands and the throttle passage 61 is closed, so that the secondary cushion added to the main extension side damping force by the hydraulic cushion C1. Can increase the damping force. Therefore, the extension side damping force as the whole shock absorber D becomes large, and a large impact energy can be absorbed and relaxed by the large damping force.
- case portion 5 is provided with a taper portion 5a, and the damping coefficient of the hydraulic cushion C1 increases depending on the stroke amount of the shock absorber D. Therefore, even if the secondary damping force immediately after the operation of the hydraulic cushion C1 is reduced, the secondary damping force near the stroke end can be increased. Therefore, the shock energy at the time of the maximum extension of the shock absorber D can be reliably absorbed and reduced, and a sudden change in the damping force at the boundary of the operation of the hydraulic cushion C1 can be suppressed to further improve the riding comfort of the vehicle.

- the pressure loss due to the throttle passage 61 does not increase, and thus the force for expanding the ring member 6 due to the pressure in the back pressure chamber P does not increase. For this reason, the ring member 6 and the case part 5 do not contact. Therefore, even when the hydraulic cushion C1 operates, the expansion / contraction operation of the shock absorber D is not hindered by the frictional force generated between the ring member 6 and the case portion 5 in the low speed range.
