摘要:
A height control valve (34) for an air spring of an air-ride axle/suspension system of a heavy-duty vehicle includes a body. The valve body is pneumatically connected to an air leservoir of the vehicle, an air spring (24), and to atmosphere. A control arm (48) actuates the valve to direct air from the reservoir into the air spring, when air is to be added to the air spring When air is to be exhausted from the air spring, the valve, actuated by the control arm, directs air from the air spring to atmosphere. The valve includes a throttle assembly (62) that can regulate the rate of pneumatic flow from the air spring to atmosphere when the vehicle is loaded and the air spring is in an extended condition A throttle assembly can also be used to regulate the rate of pneumatic flow from the air reservoir to the air spring.

The invention relates to a device for controlling the suspension of the body shell of a motor vehicle. According to the invention, the device comprises: a means (31) for calculating a relative modal body shell speed (Vmod2) in relation to the mid-plane of the wheels, and a second means (34, 22) for calculating the set modal stress (cf2, c?2, Fz2) of the shock absorber as a function of the relative modal body shell speed (Vmod2) in relation to the mid-plane of the wheels. The control value (ER) comprises a determined shock absorption principle from among a plurality of different shock absorption principles (ER) that impose the force (FA) of the shock absorber as a function of the travel speed (VDEB) thereof.

A bushing assembly (42) adapted for application in vehicle suspension systems (10) includes an outer, generally cylindrical bushing member (50), an inner generally cylindrical bushing member (52) arranged concentrically within the outer member (50). The two bushing members (50, 52) are interconnected by an elastomeric member (54) disposed there between and bonded thereto to permit limited rotational displacement between the external and internal bushing members (50, 52). An angular position sensor (62) is at least partially embedded within the elastomeric member (54) and operated to produce an output signal indicative of the relative angular position of the external and internal bushing members (50, 52). The sensor (62) includes a stator assembly (102) including a permanent magnet (106), a galvanomagnetic sensing element (108) and a flux guide (110, 112) defining at least one pole face (122, 124), and a rotor (104) including a flux guide (126, 128) defining a second pole face (130, 132). An air gap (Ra, Rb) between the two pole faces (122, 124 & 130, 132) varies dimensionally as a function of the relative angular position of the stator assembly (102) and rotor (104).

The invention relates to a bearing for a link of a wheel suspension of a vehicle, whereby at least one sensor (18, 28, 38, 48, 58) arranged in the or on the bearing (11, 21, 31, 41) determines the relative movement of the vehicle parts which are connected together by the bearing (11, 21, 31, 41).
摘要:
There is provided a compact rotary sensor which can be assembled easily by improving the shape and mounting of a spring member. There is provided a housing (1), a rotary body (8) rotatably supported in the housing, a detection unit (K) operated by rotating the rotary body, and a driving shaft (12) inserted in a recess formed on the rotary body for rotating the rotary body. A spring member (11) made of metal having at least a pair of arm sections (11a,11b) and a connecting section (11c) for connecting the arm sections is disposed in the recess of the rotary body, and the driving shaft is elastically pressed and sandwiched by the pair of arm sections.
