Damping valve device for a vibration damper
A damping valve device having a support with a circumferential groove in which a radially expandable annular element together with a flow surface forms a restriction, which restriction transitions from an open position to a restriction position depending on the flow velocity of a damping medium, and the maximum expansion position of the annular element is determined/limited by a stop. The annular element moves in direction of the open position with a delay when the flow velocity decreases by means of a dead time element.
1. A damping valve device, comprising:
an annular element that is radially expandable;
a support with a circumferential groove in which the annular element together with a flow guiding surface forms a restriction,
wherein the restriction transitions from an open position to a restriction position depending on a flow velocity of a damping medium, and
a stop determines, at least in part, a maximum expansion position of the annular element
wherein the annular element moves in direction of the open position with a delay when the flow velocity decreases by a dead time element,
wherein a positive engagement connection is closable as dead time element between the annular element and a support-side element,
wherein the positive engagement connection is formed in multiple steps so that dead time increases over a connection depth of the positive engagement connection with increasing restriction function.
2. The damping valve device according to claim 1 , wherein a rear surface of the annular element that is acted upon by pressure has a profile that causes an axial force component and a radial force component on the annular element.
3. The damping valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the annular element executes an axial movement to close the positive engagement connection.
4. The damping valve device according to claim 1 , wherein a support-side portion of the positive engagement connection is formed by an independent component part.
5. The damping valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the annular element is axially elastic.
6. A damping valve device, comprising:
an annular element that is radially expandable;
a support with a circumferential groove in which the annular element together with a flow guiding surface forms a restriction,
wherein the restriction transitions from an open position to a restriction position depending on a flow velocity of a damping medium, and
a stop determines, at least in part, a maximum expansion position of the annular element
wherein the annular element moves in direction of the open position with a delay when the flow velocity decreases by a dead time element,
wherein a positive engagement connection is closable as dead time element between the annular element and a support-side element,
wherein at least one return spring preloads the annular element out of the positive engagement connection.
7. The damping valve device according to claim 6 , wherein the annular element is axially elastic.
8. The damping valve device according to claim 6 , wherein a rear surface of the annular element that is acted upon by pressure has a profile that causes an axial force component and a radial force component on the annular element.
9. The damping valve device according to claim 6 , wherein the annular element executes an axial movement to close the positive engagement connection.
10. The damping valve device according to claim 6 , wherein a support-side portion of the positive engagement connection is formed by an independent component part.
11. A damping valve device, comprising:
an annular element that is radially expandable;
a support with a circumferential groove in which the annular element together with a flow guiding surface forms a restriction,
wherein the restriction transitions from an open position to a restriction position depending on a flow velocity of a damping medium, and
a stop determines, at least in part, a maximum expansion position of the annular element
wherein the annular element moves in direction of the open position with a delay when the flow velocity decreases by a dead time element,
wherein a positive engagement connection is closable as dead time element between the annular element and a support-side element,
wherein at least one radial outer surface of the support forms the positive engagement connection with at least one axial projection of the annular element.
12. The damping valve device according to claim 11 , wherein the annular element is axially elastic.
13. The damping valve device according to claim 11 , wherein a rear surface of the annular element that is acted upon by pressure has a profile that causes an axial force component and a radial force component on the annular element.
14. The damping valve device according to claim 11 , wherein the annular element executes an axial movement to close the positive engagement connection.
15. The damping valve device according to claim 11 , wherein a support-side portion of the positive engagement connection is formed by an independent component part.
