Shock absorber with hydraulic fluid control rod

A shock absorber (10) is longitudinally compressible and extendable under the influence of vehicle suspension loads. The shock absorber (10) includes a tubular structure (16) which defines upper and lower hydraulic fluid chambers (52, 50) above and below a piston (18). A control rod (28) is supporte...

Zusammenfassung:A shock absorber (10) is longitudinally compressible and extendable under the influence of vehicle suspension loads. The shock absorber (10) includes a tubular structure (16) which defines upper and lower hydraulic fluid chambers (52, 50) above and below a piston (18). A control rod (28) is supported for movement longitudinally through the piston (18) simultaneously with compression and extension of the shock absorber (10). The control rod (28) and the piston (18) together define a hydraulic fluid flow path extending through the piston (18) between the upper and lower fluid chambers (52, 50).
