The invention relates to a hydropneumatic suspension component such as a gas charged damper. The invention further relates to a floating piston for a hydropneumatic suspension component. Uses of adsorbent material and/or open-cell foam are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a hydraulic damper comprising a main tube; a main piston assembly; a base valve assembly; and a hydraulic compression stop assembly comprising an insert fixed on the base valve assembly, and an additional piston assembly apt to be introduced inside the first inner chamber of the insert at the end of the damper compression stroke to generate additional damping force. Said additional piston assembly comprises a piston rod extender fixed to the piston assembly or the piston rod at the side of the compression chamber, and a tenon fixed to said piston rod extender and radially displaceable with regard thereto, wherein said tenon is terminated with a first entry surface having diameter monotonically diminishing towards the compression end of said tenon, while the insert is provided with a second entry surface having diameter monotonically increasing towards the rebound end of the insert.

A gas pressure spring is provided including a working cylinder which, together with a slidably mounted compensating piston, encloses a working chamber filled with a working medium. A slidably mounted working piston is fastened to a working rod. In the event of a temperature increase, a compensating medium in a compensating chamber expands. The compensating piston is acted upon by the pressure of the working medium and the pressure of the compensating medium) such that the volume of the working chamber is increased. The temperature dependency of the gas spring force should be reduced by a design which is as simple as possible. For this purpose, the compensating chamber is at least partially surrounded by the working rod. Thus, the compensating medium can be compactly accommodated, and the assembly of the gas spring is simplified.

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.
