Hydropneumatic System Provided With Hydropneumatic Cylinders for Suspensions of Vehicle Wheel Assemblies, and Relative Vehicle

—The system according to claim 1, wherein in each said hydropneumatic cylinder said second body comprises two shoulders axially facing respective faces of said first piston element so as to define respective axial stroke end positions for said first piston element.

—The system according to claim 1, wherein said first body comprises a tubular portion that radially defines said first chamber.

—The system according to claim 3, wherein said second body comprises a stem that engages said tubular portion and is coupled in a fluid tight manner to an inner surface of said tubular portion.

—The system according to claim 4, wherein said stem is axially hollow and radially defines said second chamber;

• said first piston element being coupled in a fluid tight manner to an inner cylindrical surface of said stem.

—The system according to claim 1, wherein said second chamber has two ports separate from each other, for connection to said pneumatic supply line and for discharging possible oil from said second chamber.

—The system according to claim 1, wherein said pressurization device comprises a pressurizing cylinder, extending along a second axis and having a third and a fourth chamber axially separated from each other by a second piston element, floating along said second axis;

• said third chamber communicating with said hydraulic supply line, and said fourth chamber communicating with said pneumatic supply line;
• said second piston element having a first and a second face, which axially delimit said third chamber and, respectively, said fourth chamber;
• said first face having an area larger than an area of said second face.

—The system according to claim 7, wherein said hydraulic supply line communicates with said third chamber via a first throttling.

—The system according to claim 7, wherein a valve is interposed between said fourth chamber and a pressurized air source;

• said valve being normally closed and being openable to pressurize said fourth chamber and said pneumatic supply line to a predefined pressure value.

—The system according to claim 1, wherein said pneumatic supply line communicates with the second chambers of said hydropneumatic cylinders via a respective second throttling.

—The system according to claim 1, wherein the second chambers of said hydropneumatic cylinders are connected to a tank via respective further valves, which can be opened to discharge oil from said second chambers.

—The system according to claim 1, wherein said hydraulic supply line communicates with the first chambers of said hydropneumatic cylinders via respective parachute valves.

—Vehicle comprising:

• a hydropneumatic system, according to claim 1, and
• a plurality of wheel assemblies comprising respective least one of said suspensions, each having at hydropneumatic cylinders.

—The vehicle according to claim 13, wherein each said wheel assembly comprises at least one wheel, which can rotate about a rotation axis, and wherein each said suspension comprises a support structure fixed to a vehicle chassis and at least one oscillating arm, having a first end that supports said wheel, and a second end coupled to said support structure so as to rotate, together with said wheel, about a pivot axis;

• the at least one of said hydropneumatic cylinders being arranged between said wheel and said support structure.
