Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A magnetorheological fluid shock absorber includes a piston slidably arranged in a cylinder in which magnetorheological fluid is sealed. The piston includes a piston core which is attached to an end part of a piston rod and on the outer periphery of which a coil is provided, a flux ring which surrounds the outer periphery of the piston core and forms a flow passage for the magnetorheological fluid between the piston core and the flux ring, a first plate which is arranged on the outer periphery of the piston rod and specifies the position of one end of the flux ring in an axial direction with respect to the piston core, a second plate which is arranged on the inner periphery of the other end of the flux ring, and a first snap ring which is fitted to the inner periphery of the flux ring and fixes the second plate.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A magnetorheological fluid shock absorber comprising: a cylinder having sealed therein a magnetorheological fluid whose viscosity changes with an action of a magnetic field; a piston slidably arranged in the cylinder, and defining a pair of fluid chambers in the cylinder; and a piston rod coupled to the piston, and extending outside of the cylinder; wherein the piston includes: a piston core attached to an end part of the piston rod, the piston…
