A damper of shock and vibration. In one embodiment there is a hydraulic damper with a regressive damping characteristic in both compression and extension, such that damping forces decrease with increased stroking velocity within a predetermined range of stroking velocity. Outside of this range, damping forces are progressive, such that the damping force increases with increased stroking velocity. In another embodiment, there is a hydraulic damper with a second, slidable piston within one of the internal chambers defined by the main piston. This secondary piston is spring loaded and hydraulically latchable at either a first position or a second position based on the pressure differential across the main piston.

An end-stop control valve can progressively add end-of-stroke damping resistance to complement the damping force provided by a main piston in a damper tube. The end-stop control valve may include a piston that is secured on a piston rod and selectively engages a catch piston, both of which are longitudinally movable within the damper tube. As the piston approaches the catch piston, an annular pocket of hydraulic fluid is created longitudinally and radially between the piston and the catch piston. As the piston continues to approach the catch piston, a cross-sectional area through which hydraulic fluid exits the pocket decreases, thereby gradually increasing the resistance of the end-stop control valve. In addition, a spring disc secured on the piston rod may contact a valve seat on the catch piston and provide resistance by elastically deforming in a longitudinal direction before the contact surfaces of the piston and catch piston engage.

A damping valve device for a vibration damper includes a first damping valve that moves into a through-flow operating position in a first operating range with increasing flow velocity of a damping medium. A second operating range with a progressive damping force characteristic is influenced by a throttle point in connection with a valve body that can be transferred into a throttle position. The valve body moves in closing direction with increasing flow velocity of the damping medium and is arranged in series with the damping valve. The valve body is constructed as a ring element with variable diameter that executes a radial closing movement in direction of a flow guide surface in which a defined minimum passage cross section is maintained.

A suspension limiter includes a diaphragm element configured to be placed in operable communication with a suspension such that a rate of increase in load per unit travel of compression of the suspension is reduced near a full travel of the suspension than would exist for the suspension if the diaphragm element were not present, the diaphragm element arranged to deform only elastically through the full travel of the suspension. Suspension arrangements and methods of loading suspension arrangements are also described.

A method for execution by a computing entity includes interpreting an electric response from a set of electric field sensors to produce a piston velocity and a piston position of a piston associated with a head unit device. The head unit device includes a chamber filled with a shear thickening fluid (STF) that includes a multitude of piezoelectric nanoparticles. The method further includes determining a shear force based on the piston velocity and the piston position. The method further includes determining a desired response for the STF based on the shear force, the piston velocity, and the piston position. The method further includes generating an electric activation based on the desired response for the STF and outputting the electric activation to a set of electric field emitters positioned proximal to the chamber.

A force damper arranged to progressively arrest a first force imparted by an object moving in a first direction, the force damper including a housing, a driving member and first and second resilient members. The housing includes a first end and a second end, the first end having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface and a first connection point secured to the first surface, and the second end having a through bore and a third surface opposingly disposed relative to the second surface. The driving member includes a first end, a second end and a shaft therebetween, the first end having a stop and the second end having a second connection point. At least one of the first and second resilient members is formed from a material that at least partially undergoes plastic deformation when the first force is arrested. The first and second resilient members are disposed between the stop and the third surface and impart a second force on the stop toward the second surface.
