BEARING BUSH
A bearing bush for supporting a motor vehicle part includes an inner tube made of a metal, a sliding sleeve made of a first plastic material and mounted rotatably on the inner tube, and an elastomer bearing which surrounds the sliding sleeve and has at least a first elastomer body and an outer sleeve. A sliding layer made of a second plastic material is applied to an outer circumferential surface of the inner tube, the first plastic material and the second plastic material forming a tribological pairing either of two different polymers from the groups of polyamides, polyoxymethylenes, polyketones, fluoropolymers, polyethylene terephthalates or polybutylene terephthalates, or the tribological pairing being formed from polyketone against polyketone, wherein the polymers of the tribological pairings each are present in a continuous thermoplastic polymer phase.
SHOCK ABSORBER
The shock absorber includes a hydraulic damper and a pneumatic spring arranged. around the damper. The damper includes a cylinder, a piston, and a piston rod attached to said piston. The piston divides the cylinder into a compression damper chamber and a rebound spring chamber. The pneumatic spring includes a housing provided around the cylinder with an intermediate space is formed between the housing and the cylinder. The housing has a first end opening and a second end opening through which the piston rod extends. An outer sealing unit that seals the piston rod and the housing adjacent the first end opening. An inner sealing unit seals the piston rod and the cylinder by the second end opening. The outer seal includes an inner sealing member and an outer sealing member together defining a liquid space between the piston rod and the housing, said liquid space comprising a sealing liquid, such as damper oil.
AIR FLOW GENERATION STRUCTURAL BODY AND SEALING STRUCTURE
An air flow generation structural body includes a main body disposed in a gap between an attachment target to which a sealing device is attached and a disc-shaped member that is integrated with a shaft member so as to extend from the shaft member toward an outer periphery side. The shaft member passes through a through-hole in the attachment target and is rotatable around an axis. The main body is attached to the shaft member so as to be rotatable together with the shaft member. The air flow generation structural body further includes a plurality of blade portions formed on an outer peripheral surface g of the main body to generate an air current. Each of the blade portions extends along a centrifugal direction perpendicular to the axis x and is parallel to the axis x.
VACUUM PUMP AND VACUUM-PUMP DAMPER
A vacuum pump and a damper for the vacuum pump are provided so as to increase vibration isolation in a twisting direction with a simple structure and prevent rupture of an O-ring and an elastic member by regulating a misalignment of flanges facing each other. Provided are a first flange and a second flange, each having a central opening, the flanges being shaped like rings opposed to each other; an O-ring and an intermediate ring that are disposed between the first flange and the second flange; O-rings disposed between the first flange and the intermediate flange and between the intermediate ring and the second flange; a plurality of elastic members that are disposed between the first flange and the second flange and are spread in the circumferential direction of central openings; and airtightness keeping means including positioning pins inserted into positioning holes sequentially provided on the first flange, the intermediate ring, and the second flange.
Vehicle weight measurement device
A vehicle weight measurement device includes a diaphragm which covers an opening area of a groove portion of a mounting part to form an oil chamber of a predetermined space together with the groove portion; a pressure sensor which detects a change in pressure of measurement fluid in the oil chamber; a first piston which presses the diaphragm; a second piston which presses the first piston; and a bearing unit interposed between the second piston and a spring bush which receives one end of a spring of a suspension device and is relatively rotatable. The bearing unit includes a thrust needle bearing which swingably supports a load in a longitudinal direction of the suspension device, and a slide bush which does not receive a load in the longitudinal direction and receives a load in a radial direction while causing constant damping to swinging.
SHOCK ABSORBER
A shock absorber includes a bearing unit having a bearing and a bearing holding member, and a seal unit having a seal member and a seal holding member. The seal holding member includes a seal accommodating portion being configured to accommodate the seal member, and an insertion hole through which a piston rod is inserted. The seal member is pressed against an outer circumferential surface of the piston rod and the seal accommodating portion by working-fluid pressure in the extension-side chamber. And the bearing is provided such that a first end surface of the bearing facing the seal member matches an aperture plane of a through hole of the bearing holding member or such that the first end surface of the bearing projects out from the aperture plane of the through hole.
FRONT FORK POSITION-DEPENDENT DAMPING FOR BICYCLES AND MOTORCYCLES
A damper for a telescopic fork leg for a front fork of a vehicle, wherein the damper comprises a twin-tube cylinder and a piston rod assembly comprising a piston rod, wherein a first piston is attached to the inner end portion of the piston rod, wherein a second piston is attached to the piston rod between the first piston and an outer end portion of the piston rod, wherein the inner tube is provided with at least one outlet hole 19 through the wall of the inner tube, the outlet hole being positioned such that a sealing portion of the second piston at compression of the damper travels past at the at least one outlet hole, and wherein the inner tube is provided with at least one return hole through the wall of the inner tube, the at least one return hole being positioned such that it connects a chamber of the twin-tube cylinder to an outer volume of the cylinder.
