Active height-correcting hydropneumatic suspension

Abstract

Abstract This suspension essentially comprises a height corrector (1, 3), associated with each of the wheels of the front axle of a vehicle, and a height corrector (5), associated with the rear axle, these height correctors each cooperating with an initiator (2, 4, 6) controlled by an action of acceleration, braking and/or turning on the vehicle and acting instantaneously on the slide valve of the corresponding height corrector in order to apply an anti-pitch and/or anti-roll action, and an electronic computer actuating an electromagnet acting on the slide valve of each corrector in order to finely adjust the correction beyond a defined travel of the slide valve. This suspension may be applied to any type of touring vehicle for example. <IMAGE>
