Abstract
An embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a shock absorber. A shock absorber which is divided into a compression chamber and a rebound chamber by a piston valve in a tube having an interior filled with a fluid includes a first elastic member disposed in the compression chamber, a second elastic member disposed in the compression chamber to be spaced apart from the first elastic member, and a mid-guide member disposed between the first elastic member and the second elastic member and movable along a longitudinal direction of the compression chamber.
Claims19
A shock absorber which is divided into a compression chamber and a rebound chamber by a piston valve in a tube having an interior filled with a fluid, the shock absorber comprising:
- a first elastic member disposed in the compression chamber;
- a second elastic member disposed in the compression chamber to be spaced apart from the first elastic member;
- a mid-guide member disposed between the first elastic member and the second elastic member and movable along a longitudinal direction of the compression chamber;
- and
- a second guide member disposed between the piston valve and the second elastic member,
- wherein the second guide member comprises:
- a second guide body having a second guide hole formed to pass through a center thereof;
- a second guide groove concavely formed on one side of the second guide body to support the second elastic member;
- and
- a plurality of second guide protrusions formed to protrude from the other side of the second guide body and spaced apart from each other toward the piston valve.
A shock absorber comprising:
- a tube having an interior filled with a fluid;
- a piston valve disposed to be movable upward and downward in the tube and divided into a compression chamber below the piston valve and a rebound chamber above the piston valve;
- a body valve disposed below the tube;
- a mid-guide member disposed in the compression chamber and movable therein;
- a first region below the mid-guide member;
- a first elastic member disposed in the first region;
- a second region above the mid-guide member;
- a second elastic member disposed in the second region;
- a first guide member disposed between the body valve and the first elastic member;
- a disk member supported by the first guide member;
- and
- a second guide member disposed between the second elastic member and the piston valve and having a second guide flow path formed to guide a movement direction of the fluid in at least a portion of the second region to be changed according to a contact between the mid-guide member and the disk member,
- wherein the second guide member further comprises:
- a second guide body having a second guide hole formed to pass through a center thereof;
- a second guide groove concavely formed on one side of the second guide body to support the second elastic member;
- and
- a plurality of second guide protrusions formed to protrude from the other side of the second guide body and spaced apart from each other toward the piston valve.
A shock absorber which is divided into a compression chamber and a rebound chamber by a piston valve in a tube having an interior filled with a fluid, the shock absorber comprising:
- a first elastic member disposed in the compression chamber;
- a second elastic member disposed in the compression chamber to be spaced apart from the first elastic member;
- and
- a mid-guide member disposed between the first elastic member and the second elastic member and movable along a longitudinal direction of the compression chamber,
- a first guide member disposed to be spaced apart from the mid-guide member to support the first elastic member;
- and
- a body valve disposed below to the first guide member,
- wherein the body valve, the first guide member are coupled to each other by a body pin and a body nut or a body pin rivet;
- a second guide member disposed between the piston valve and the second elastic member,
- wherein the second guide member comprises:
- a second guide body having a second guide hole formed to pass through a center thereof;
- a second guide groove concavely formed on one side of the second guide body to support the second elastic member;
- and
- a plurality of second guide protrusions formed to protrude from the other side of the second guide body and spaced apart from each other toward the piston valve.
