1. A damper assembly, comprising:
a damper cap assembly closing an upper end of a first member engaged with a second member of said damper assembly, wherein said damper cap assembly comprises:
a damper cap body having a first set of threads;a compression piston; anda damper shaft extending vertically downward from said damper cap assembly and supporting said damping assembly on its lower end, wherein said damping assembly is fixed for movement with said first member and comprises a central passage having positioned therein an adjust rod, wherein a first compression chamber is defined between said adjust rod and an inner surface of said damper shaft; a shaft support coupling said damper cap body and said damper shaft, wherein, said shaft support having a second set of threads for mating with said first set of threads, wherein upon said mating, said compression piston being secured between said damper cap body and said shaft support, wherein said shaft support comprises:
a set of ports enabling fluid communication with at least said first compression chamber; a shoulder axially spacing said compression piston from said cap body, said shoulder comprising: a set of passages enabling fluid communication with at least a second compression chamber that is created, by said axially spacing, between an upper surface of said compression piston and a lower surface of said cap body; and a transfer chamber coupling said set of ports to said set of passages, said transfer chamber enabling said fluid to flow between said first compression chamber and said second compression chamber while allowing a threaded connection between said cap body and said shaft support. |
