High Velocity Compression Damping Valve

US Patent:
2010007, Apr 1, 2010
Filed:
Jul 2, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/496964
Inventors:
Karl C. Kazmirski - Temperance MI, US
Darrell G. Breese - Ypsilanti MI, US
Matthew L. Roessle - Temperance MI, US
John McGahey - Trenton MI, US
Assignee:
Tenneco Automotive Operating Company, Inc. - Lake Forest IL
International Classification:
F16F 9/508
US Classification:
188280
Abstract:
A shock absorber includes a pressure sensitive valve assembly that controls fluid flow through the pressure sensitive valve assembly based upon the velocity of the piston assembly in the shock absorber. The pressure sensitive valve assembly restricts fluid flow as the velocity of the piston in a compression stroke increases to increase the damping loads provided by the shock absorber.

Damper With Digital Valve

US Patent:
8616351, Dec 31, 2013
Filed:
Oct 6, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/573911
Inventors:
Matthew L. Roessle - Temperance MI, US
Karl C. Kazmirski - Temperance MI, US
Jeroen K. Paenhuysen - Ann Arbor MI, US
Darrell G. Breese - Ypsilanti MI, US
Daniel T. Keil - Temperance MI, US
Thomas P. Mallin - Temperance MI, US
Jeffrey T. Gardner - Woodland Park CO, US
Assignee:
Tenneco Automotive Operating Company Inc. - Lake Forest IL
International Classification:
F16F 9/50
US Classification:
1882824, 18832214, 18832213, 1882665, 188315
Abstract:
A shock absorber has a compression valve assembly that provides a high damping load during a compression stroke and an extension valve assembly that provides a high damping load during an extension stroke. One or more digital valve assemblies is positioned to work in parallel with the compression valve assembly and the extension valve assembly to provide a lower damping load. The lowering of the damping load is based upon the cross sectional area of flow passages provided by the one or more digital valve assemblies.

Nested Check High Speed Valve

US Patent:
8590678, Nov 26, 2013
Filed:
Aug 2, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/564954
Inventors:
Timothy Bombrys - Bowling Green OH, US
Darrell Breese - Ypsilanti MI, US
Gary Groves - Toledo OH, US
Karl Kazmirski - Temperance MI, US
Daniel Keil - Temperance MI, US
Matthew Roessle - Temperance MI, US
Ben Schaller - Toledo OH, US
Matthew Schelosky - Temperance MI, US

Assignee:
Tenneco Automotive Operating Company Inc. - Lake Forest IL
International Classification:
F16F 9/49
US Classification:
188280, 18832215, 18832222, 188315, 188275, 1882828
Abstract:
A shock absorber has a compression valve assembly which functions during a compression stroke, a rebound valve assembly which functions during a rebound stroke and a velocity sensitive valve which is in series with one or both of the compression valve assembly and the rebound valve assembly. The compression valve assembly, the rebound valve assembly and the velocity sensitive valve can be incorporated into a piston assembly, a base valve assembly or both.
