Abstract: A novel tunable hydraulic valve assembly (46) adaptable to a standard direct acting hydraulic shock absorber (10), variably responsive to a plurality of selected ranges of fluid pressure differentials to provide a plurality of fluid flow paths (58, 114, 118, 122) between fluid containing portions of the shock absorber, and a method for achieving same, is disclosed. The valve assembly (46) comprises a plurality of deflectable valve disks (116, 120, 124) with flow ports (118, 122) in stacked abutting relationship whereby selected ranges of fluid pressure differentials deflect variable numbers of valve disks providing varying fluid flow paths therebetween. The valve assembly (46) of the present invention is shown to be adapted to use in both the piston (10) tunably affecting fluid flow between portions of the pressure cylinder (12) on either side of a reciprocable piston (10) disposed therein, and the base valve assembly (34), tunably affecting fluid flow between the pressure cylinder (12) and the fluid reservoir (36).

Abstract translation: 一种适用于标准直接作用液压减震器（10）的新型可调液压阀组件（46），其可变地响应于多个选定范围的流体压力差，以提供多个流体流动路径（58,114,118,122 ）和用于实现其的方法。 阀组件（46）包括多个具有堆叠邻接关系的流动端口（118,122）的可偏转阀盘（116,120,124），从而所选择的流体压差范围使可变数量的阀盘偏转，从而提供变化的流体流动路径 其间。 本发明的阀组件（46）被示出适用于可调节地影响位于其中的往复活塞（10）的任一侧的压力缸（12）的部分之间的流体流动的活塞（10） 和基本阀组件（34）可调节地影响压力缸（12）和流体储存器（36）之间的流体流动。
