Abstract
The invention relates to a vibration damper for a motor vehicle comprising an inner tube, an outer tube and at least one compensating chamber, which is formed between the inner tube and the outer tube and comprises at least one gas bag, which is arranged in the compensating chamber, wherein the compensating chamber is fluidically connected to at least one working area of the inner tube filled with a hydraulic fluid, wherein at least one guide element is provided, which deflects a flow of the hydraulic fluid during a rebound stage or a compression stage in such a way that the gas bag is indirectly subjected to flow. Furthermore, the invention relates to a motor vehicle.
Claims6
A vibration damper for a motor vehicle comprising an inner tube, an outer tube and at least one compensating chamber formed between the inner tube and the outer tube and comprising at least one gas bag, which is arranged in the compensating chamber, wherein the compensating chamber is fluidically connected to at least one working area of the inner tube filled with a hydraulic fluid,
- wherein at least one guide element is provided, which deflects a flow of the hydraulic fluid during a rebound stage or a compression stage in such a way that the gas bag is indirectly subjected to flow,
- wherein at least one intermediate tube is arranged between the inner tube and the outer tube, which divides the at least one compensating chamber into a first annular space and a second annular space, wherein at least one first gas bag is arranged in the first annular space for the rebound stage, and at least one second gas bag is arranged in the second annular space for the compression stage and
- wherein the at least one guide element is arranged between the at least one intermediate tube and a base element, wherein the at least one guide element comprises at least one first seal area facing the at least one intermediate tube and at least one second seal area facing the base element in order to seal the first annular space and the second annular space against each other in a fluid-tight manner.
