Abstract
A vibration damper of a vehicle wheel is supported on a vehicle body by a damper mount having an elastic body. The vibration damper includes a fluid-filled cylinder, a piston guided in the cylinder, and a piston rod. A wherein a damper chamber is formed in the cylinder on each side of the piston. The damper mount includes a hydraulic pressure chamber connected via a fluid-conducting connection to the damper chambers, whose volumes are respectively reduced when the vehicle wheel is deflected in relation to the vehicle body. In addition, a throttle valve is provided in the fluid-conducting connection, wherein the throttle value comprises a valve body that is displaceable in relation to a valve seat counter to a spring force, and a throttle bore.
Claims18
A vibration damper of a vehicle wheel supported on a vehicle body by a damper mount having an elastic body, the vibration damper comprising:
- a fluid-filled cylinder;
- a piston guided in the cylinder;
- and
- a piston rod,
- wherein a damper chamber is formed in the cylinder on each side of the piston,
- wherein the damper mount comprises a hydraulic pressure chamber connected via a fluid-conducting connection to the damper chambers, whose volumes are respectively reduced when the vehicle wheel is deflected in relation to the vehicle body, and
- wherein a throttle valve is provided in the fluid-conducting connection, wherein the throttle value comprises a valve body that is displaceable in relation to a valve seat counter to a spring force, and a throttle bore.
A vibration damper of a vehicle wheel damper comprising:
- a fluid-filled cylinder;
- a piston guided in the cylinder, wherein a first damper chamber and a second damper chamber are formed in the cylinder on corresponding sides of the piston;
- and
- a damper mount having an elastic body configured to support the vibration damper on a vehicle body, wherein the damper mount comprises
- a hydraulic pressure chamber connected via a fluid-conducting connection to at least one of the first and second damper chambers, whose volumes are respectively reduced when the vehicle wheel is deflected towards and away from the vehicle body, and
- a throttle valve provided in the fluid-conducting connection, wherein the throttle value comprises a valve body and a throttle bore, wherein the valve body is displaceable in relation to a valve seat counter to a spring force.
