A rod member is inside of the body-side member and the wheel-side member and moves relatively in the axial direction in accordance with movement of the body-side member and the wheel-side member. A first defining member secured to an end portion of the rod member and in contact with the cylinder movably in the axial direction of the cylinder defines space in the cylinder.

A shock absorber includes a tubular outer tube, a tubular inner tube, a rod, a piston, an urging member, and a guide bush. The guide bush is a ring-shaped member arranged along an inner periphery of the outer tube, abuts against a front surface and a rear surface of the inner tube to movably hold the inner tube, and is separated from left and right side surfaces of the inner tube.

A damper assembly comprises a main tube extending along a center axis between a first end and a second end defining a fluid chamber. A main piston is disposed in the fluid chamber dividing the fluid chamber into a compression chamber and a rebound chamber. A piston rod extends along the center axis coupled to the main piston. An external tube extends about the main tube and defines a compensation chamber therebetween. The external tube includes a protrusion extending radially inwardly from an opened end to abut the main tube. An external piston is located in the compensation chamber and coupled to the main tube, dividing the compensation chamber into a first compartment and a second compartment. The first compartment extends between the protrusion and the external piston for containing a working fluid. The second compartment extends between the closed end and the external piston for containing a gas.

A shock assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a damper chamber having an outer wall with a first inner diameter (ID). A secondary chamber within the damper chamber, the secondary chamber comprising an exterior wall with an external diameter (ED) less than the ID of the outer wall to form an annular region therebetween. A damping piston coupled to a piston rod, the damping piston disposed in the secondary chamber and axially movable relative to the secondary chamber, the damping piston to bifurcate the secondary chamber into a compression side and a rebound side. A valve to control a flow of a working fluid between the annular region and the secondary chamber.

A front fork includes a first shock absorber and a second shock absorber disposed respectively on both sides of a vehicle wheel. The first shock absorber includes a set of tubes configured to slide relative to each other; damping force generation parts configured to generate a damping force in accordance with the sliding of the tubes; and a spring configured to urge the set of tubes in a stretching direction. The second shock absorber includes a set of tubes configured to slide relative to each other; and a coil spring configured to urge the set of tubes in the stretching direction.

A hydraulic damper assembly comprises a housing extending between a first end and a second end. A main piston is slidably disposed in the fluid chamber dividing the fluid chamber into a first chamber and a second chamber. A piston rod extends along a center axis and attaches to the main piston. An additional piston is coupled to the piston rod and axially spaced from the main piston. The additional piston includes a main body defining a compression channel and a rebound channel that allow fluid to flow through the additional piston. A securing member secures the additional piston to the piston rod and defines an outer groove. A piston ring is located in the outer groove between the additional piston and the securing member. The piston ring is radially spaced from the securing member to allow the piston ring to be in engagement with the housing.

A damper including a pressure tube, a piston, and a reserve tube is provided. The piston is arranged inside the pressure tube and divides the pressure tube into first and second working chambers. The reserve tube extends about the pressure tube to define a reserve tube chamber between the pressure tube and the reserve tube. A first damper port is arranged in communication with the second working chamber and a second damper port is arranged in communication with the reserve tube chamber. A remote valve assembly is spaced from the damper. The remote valve assembly includes a first electromagnetic valve that is arranged in communication with the first damper port by a first hydraulic line and a second electromagnetic valve that is arranged in communication with the second damper port by a second hydraulic line. An accumulator is arranged in communication with the first and second electromagnetic valves.

A hydraulic damper assembly comprises a housing extending between a first end and a second end. A main piston is slidably disposed in the fluid chamber dividing the fluid chamber into a first chamber and a second chamber. A piston rod extends along a center axis and attaches to the main piston. An additional piston is coupled to the piston rod and axially spaced from the main piston. The additional piston includes a main body defining a compression channel and a rebound channel that allow fluid to flow through the additional piston. A securing member secures the additional piston to the piston rod and defines an outer groove. A piston ring is located in the outer groove between the additional piston and the securing member. The piston ring is radially spaced from the securing member to allow the piston ring to be in engagement with the housing.

A vibration damper for a motor vehicle includes a valve block and at least one tube assembly. The tube assembly has at least one inner tube and one outer tube which are arranged coaxially. The valve block is arranged in a fluid-tight manner at one axial end of the tube assembly. At least the outer tube is connected in an integrally joined manner to the valve block, and a ring nut is provided at least on the outer tube. The ring nut transmits a prestressing force, in particular a pressing force, to the at least one inner tube such that the at least one inner tube is connected in a non-positive manner to the valve block.

An extension assembly for a damper includes an extension post having an upper end and a lower end opposite to the upper end. The extension post includes a coupling portion, a narrow portion defining a deformed section, and a wide portion disposed between the coupling portion and the narrow portion. A diameter of the wide portion is greater than a diameter of the narrow portion. The extension assembly includes a retaining member having a sleeve portion received on the narrow portion of the extension post and a plurality of support portions extending from the sleeve portion. Further, the deformed section of the narrow portion secures the retaining member to the narrow portion. The extension assembly further includes a sealing ring disposed around the retaining member. The sealing ring is disposed between the wide portion of the extension post and the plurality of support portions of the retaining member.
