An automatic pressure regulating pneumatic cylinder includes: a pneumatic cylinder, arranged with a connecting element for sealing the pneumatic cylinder, a piston slidably configured above the connecting element, a upper air chamber formed above the piston, and a lower air chamber formed between the piston and connecting element, the pneumatic cylinder further configured with first and second air entering passages allowing external air to one-way flow into the upper air chamber and a first guide passage allowing the external air to one-way flow into the lower air chamber; an air flow control unit, embedded inside the connecting element, an exhaust floating piston of the air flow control unit allowed to correspondingly form an air passage for opening or closing through normal speed and rapid displacement of the piston and further cause the internal air of the lower air chamber to generate different air pressure resistance for automatic internal pressure regulation.

A damper valve with an adjustable effective stiffness of a shim. The damper valve includes a piston. The piston has a fluid path formed therethrough. A shim is disposed proximate the fluid path formed through the piston. A stiffness adjustment feature is coupled to the shim, and the shim is disposed between the piston and the stiffness adjustment feature. The stiffness adjustment feature is configured to adjust the effective stiffness of the shim without affecting a preload applied to the shim.

A brake operating device to improve a brake feeling by a simple structure without a hydraulic source or an electric power source. A first reaction force establishing mechanism as an elastic member establishes the reaction force against the pedal force applied to the brake pedal. A second reaction force establishing mechanism increases the reaction force when depressing the brake pedal. The first reaction force establishing mechanism and the second reaction force establishing mechanism are arranged coaxially in series.

A vehicle suspension damper includes: a cylinder and a piston assembly, wherein the piston assembly includes a piston; a working fluid within the cylinder; a bypass cylinder surrounding the cylinder and defining a cylindrical bypass channel; an adjustable bypass port fluidly coupling an interior of the cylinder and the cylindrical bypass channel; and an active bypass valve coupled with the cylindrical bypass channel, the active bypass valve configured to adjust a working size of the adjustable bypass port to modify a flow of said working fluid through the adjustable bypass port.

A vehicle suspension damper includes: a cylinder and a piston assembly, wherein the piston assembly includes a piston; a working fluid within the cylinder; a bypass cylinder surrounding the cylinder and defining a cylindrical bypass channel; an adjustable bypass port fluidly coupling an interior of the cylinder and the cylindrical bypass channel; and a remotely operable bypass valve slidably disposed within the cylindrical bypass channel, the remotely operable bypass valve configured for, upon actuation of an actuator coupled with the remotely operable bypass valve, adjusting a flow of the working fluid through the adjustable bypass port.

A damper device is configured so that a piston moves in a cylinder. A seal ring member is provided to the outer periphery of the piston to device the inside of the cylinder into a first chamber and a second chamber. A transmission member is connected to the piston and can transmit external force to the piston. A cutout section is formed with a predetermined circumferential width in a first stopper surface. A communication section has an opening in an annular outer peripheral section located closer to the second chamber than the cutout section. When the seal ring member is pressed toward the first stopper surface, the seal ring member is deformed so as to partially enter the cutout section.

A fluid-filled piston cylinder unit comprises a housing with a longitudinal axis and with an interior, a piston rod guided out from the housing in a sealing manner, which can be displaced along the longitudinal axis, as well as a piston connected to the piston rod, which divides the interior into a first sub-interior and a second sub-interior. The piston has a first fluid channel and a second fluid channel in each case for a fluid flow between the first sub-interior and the second sub-interior. The piston has a piston valve for closing the first fluid channel, whereby the piston valve in dependence of a fluid pressure opens the first fluid channel.
