    SELF-ADJUSTABLE HYDRAULIC STOP FOR THE LIMIT SWITCH OF AN OSCILLATING MOVEMENT
    The present invention relates to a hydraulic stop for the damping of an oscillating movement, as well as a telescopic shock absorber and a vehicle comprising a suspension, equipped with this type of hydraulic stop.
    Motor vehicles generally comprise for each wheel a suspension comprising a suspension spring, and a hydraulic telescopic damper which brakes the movements of the suspension. In particular, the telescopic shock absorber may include a hydraulic limit stop, which slows the movement of the suspension to avoid a shock at the end of the stroke.
    A known type of hydraulic stop, in particular for a vehicle suspension damper, presented in particular by document FR-A1-2902850, comprises a jack rod comprising at its end a piston descending before the end of travel in a chamber formed in an inner tube which is fitted into an outer tube. The whole is contained in a body filled with a fluid.
    The outer tube has a manual or automatic control located outside the body, allowing it to rotate around its main axis. The inner and outer tubes have a series of axially distributed holes, which depending on the angular position of the outer tube can be fully aligned with each other to form a maximum passage of the fluid, or gradually misaligned to obtain a reduction in this passage.
    A hydraulic end-of-travel stop is obtained with an increasingly high braking force as a function of the advance of the piston, closing an increasing number of axially distributed bores. In addition, the adjustment of the angular position of the outer tube gives different braking laws, allowing a suspension damper of a vehicle to adapt to the load of this vehicle.
    However, this type of external adjustment of the braking laws requires manual intervention to adjust this law in the case of a manual control, or an external automatic pilot system which complicates the installation and increases the costs.
    The object of the present invention is in particular to avoid these drawbacks of the prior art.
    To this end, it offers a hydraulic stop for the damping of an end of travel of an oscillating movement, comprising an annular jacket adjusted around a cylinder fixed to a body, designed to move axially forwards during '' compression by discharging a fluid towards an interior chamber formed in this cylinder by passing through axially distributed bores, this stop being remarkable in that the interior chamber comprises a plug sliding in the cylinder by closing or opening additional bores of this cylinder , this plug being connected to the annular jacket by a thrust spring which in the end of stroke pushes the plug forwards, and being connected to the body by a hydraulic damper, and by a return spring which brings it back towards the rear by developing a force lower than that of the thrust spring.
    An advantage of this hydraulic stop is that for an oscillation movement of the annular jacket having a greater compression with an average position of this oscillation arranged more forward, the thrust spring tending to descend the bushel, ends up defeating the hydraulic damper having slow dynamics by compressing the return spring, which positions this plug lower.
    The additional holes in the cylinder are then arranged so as to obtain in this lower position of the plug a different damping law, in particular giving higher braking to increase the damping in the case of a suspension of a more charge.
    An automatic, efficient and economical way, without manual intervention or external control system, of an automatic adaptation of the braking law of the hydraulic stop according to the average position of the oscillating movement.
    The hydraulic stop according to the invention may further include one or more of the following characteristics, which can be combined with one another.
    Advantageously, the hydraulic damper comprises calibrated passages of the fluid giving the plug for the plug from a compressed position, under the effect of the return spring a complete relaxation time greater than three seconds.
    Advantageously, the additional bores have a free passage section which is reduced when the plug is in the most forward position.
    Advantageously, the thrust spring is a helical spring disposed behind the plug.
    Advantageously, the plug comprises inside a hydraulic control chamber, closed towards the front by a pin fitted in a bore of this plug forming the hydraulic damper.
    In this case, advantageously the return spring is disposed inside the hydraulic control chamber.
    Advantageously, the hydraulic damper comprises a hydraulic control chamber having a valve allowing an outlet of the fluid outside this control chamber.
    In particular, the return spring can press a ball forming the valve. The invention also relates to a telescopic shock absorber intended for a vehicle suspension, comprising a hydraulic end-of-travel stop comprising any one of the preceding characteristics. The invention further relates to a motor vehicle equipped with suspensions comprising hydraulic stops comprising any one of the preceding characteristics. The invention will be better understood and other characteristics and advantages will appear more clearly on reading the description below given by way of example and without limitation, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: - Figures 1 and 2 are views in axial section of a hydraulic attack stop according to the prior art, integrated in a telescopic suspension damper, presented respectively before the work of this stop and during its work; - Figure 3 is a graph showing the force applied by this attack stop as a function of its travel for different speeds; - Figure 4 is an axial sectional view of a leading stop according to the invention; - Figures 5a and 5b are detailed views of the hydraulic damper of this stop, presented respectively in a high and low position; and - Figure 6 is a graph showing for this stop the force applied as a function of its travel for two average positions of oscillation.
    FIG. 1 shows a telescopic damper comprising a cylindrical outer body 2 forming a tube, containing a piston 4 fixed to the end of a damper rod 20, sliding axially in this body with a seal to delimit a front chamber 6 and a rear chamber 22.
    The piston 4 has reduced passages of the fluid 8 between the front chamber 6 and the rear chamber 22, which slow its movement as a function of the direction and the speed of passage of the fluid, and therefore of the speed of the damper rod. 20.
    The piston 4 extends from the side conventionally called the front side, indicated by the arrow "AV", by a circular jacket 10 which fits towards the end of the race in an annular outer chamber 16, adjusting around a limit stop tube 12 forming a cylinder. The stop tube 12 defining inside an interior chamber 26, is fixed by its front end to a cover 14 closing the front end of the external body 2.
    The jacket 10 has an outer annular boss 24 guiding it in the outer body 2, and a series of radial bores 18 axially aligned, which have an increasingly reduced diameter in the direction of the rear.
    During the advancement of the liner 10 into the outer chamber 16, around the stop tube 12, shown in FIG. 2, the fluid from this outer chamber is discharged towards the inner chamber 26 through the holes 18 of calibrated section to achieve braking the advance of the damper rod 20. The fluid then passes from the interior chamber 26 to the rear volume 22 through the reduced passages 8 of the piston 4.
    In parallel depending on the advance of the rod 20, the holes 18 of the jacket 10 gradually close, which increasingly reduces the total cross-section of the fluid passage from the outer chamber 6 to the inner chamber 26, and increases the braking force which becomes very important near the end of the race.
    Increasingly progressive braking is obtained from the damper rod 20, which is determined by adjusting the diameters and the positions of the holes 18 in the liner 10.
    FIG. 3 shows the braking force F of the attack stop expressed in daN on the vertical axis, which is negative for braking, as a function of the stroke C expressed in millimeters, for different speeds of displacement of the piston 4. For each speed there is a start of travel from the attack stop at -25mm, then a race towards negative values giving an increasingly significant braking force which comes from the gradual closing of the holes 18.
    In particular for a low speed presented by the curve 30 which is 0.1 m / s, a maximum braking force of approximately 100daN is obtained. For a high speed presented by curve 32 which is 2m / s, a maximum braking force of 1300daN is obtained.
    FIGS. 4, 5a and 5b show a leading stop comprising a plug 40 adjusted inside the stop tube 12, which has axial bores 44 allowing free passage of the fluid on the two sides forming the internal chamber 26.
    In particular the plug 40 having an axial shape, can be produced economically by sintering metal powders.
    A helical thrust spring 46 is disposed between the piston 4 and the plug 40, to apply to this plug after a sufficient compression stroke of the telescopic damper, a force forward coming into contact.
    The plug 40 comprises an axial control chamber 48 containing a helical return spring 50, which bears down on a calibrated cylindrical pin 52 adjusted in this chamber, which can slide axially. The force delivered by the return spring 50 is much lower than that delivered by the thrust spring 46.
    The calibrated pin 52 has a reduced clearance with the bore of the control chamber 48 receiving it, which constitutes a passage of calibrated fluid to form a hydraulic damper emptying at a slow speed depending on this clearance. In particular, it is possible to use for the calibrated pin 52 a roller bearing roller, having at the same time a high precision, a good surface condition and a very reduced cost. As a variant, a calibrated ball in the bore can be used for this calibrated pin 52.
    In particular, the dynamics of the hydraulic shock absorber give the plug 40 a considerably lower expansion speed than that of the oscillating movement of the suspension.
    The return spring 50 bears upwards on a valve ball 54 closing an upper bore of this axial chamber opening onto the top of the plug 40. This valve allows in particular a faster bleeding of the air contained in the chamber. control 48, escaping by drilling the top during assembly and the first operations of the hydraulic shock absorber.
    The base of the calibrated pin 52 is supported on a lower support 56, itself supported on the front end cover 14 of the outer body. In particular, the lower support 56 can be produced economically by bar turning, by sintering metal powders, or by molding a plastic material.
    The stop tube 12 includes an additional lower hole of vacuum law 60, which is uncovered when the plug 40 is in a high position shown in FIG. 5a, and two additional upper holes of load law 62, which are uncovered when this plug is in a low position shown in Figure 5b.
    Figure 6 shows the braking force F on the hydraulic stop as a function of the stroke C of this stop. The arrival on the hydraulic stop is for a stroke C of 0mm.
    With a lightly loaded vehicle, the average position of the damper rod 20 is high enough for the thrust spring 46 to apply little or no load to the plug 40, as shown in FIG. 5a.
    The return spring 50 bearing via the calibrated pin 52 and the lower support 56 on the end cover 14, tends to raise the plug 40 in the position shown in Figure 5a, the additional lower hole 60 being open. When the rod 20 arrives towards the end of the stroke, the attack stop has a slight stiffness presented by the first curve 70, ensuring comfort.
    During this rapid arrival of the rod 20 on the end of travel stop, the control chamber 48 of the hydraulic shock absorber does not have time to empty by the play around the calibrated pin 52, because of the slow dynamics of this shock absorber. The plug 40 remains in its high position.
    With a heavily loaded vehicle, the average position of the shock absorber rod 20 is low enough for the thrust spring 46 opposing the return spring 50, to act strongly enough and for a time long enough to push down. plug 40, gradually emptying the control chamber 48 by the play around the calibrated pin 52. As shown in Figure 5b, the upper additional holes 62 are then opened.
    When the rod 20 arrives towards the end of the stroke, the attack stop has a high stiffness presented by the second curve 72. The second curve 72 has braking increasing much more rapidly, which delivers at the end of race a significantly higher maximum force which is increased by 260daN.
    The stroke of the plug 40 downwards emptying the control chamber 48 takes place after the application by the push spring 46 of a force for a minimum duration of several seconds, advantageously more than three seconds, which can be about five to ten seconds. In this case we are far enough from the period given by the oscillation frequency of the suspension of a vehicle, which is about 1 Hz.
    We thus achieve in a simple and economical way, with few modifications of an existing hydraulic shock absorber, a progressive limit stop which automatically adapts to the vehicle load. In general, the end of travel stop can include only the additional holes 60, 62 on the stop tube 12, or also in combination with the holes 18 on the jacket 10, as shown in FIG. 1.
    It will be noted that the telescopic damper comprising the hydraulic stop according to the invention can be placed in the motor vehicle in all directions. In particular the front side can be turned downwards or upwards, the body of the shock absorber 2 can be fixed to the suspension or to the body of the vehicle.
