A SHOCK ABSORBER AND A VEHICLE COMPRISING A SHOCK ABSORBER

摘要

The absorber (2) has a bearing part (4) connected with a foundation part (6) over an anti-vibration part (20), which is partially made of a shape memory material. The anti-vibration part extends from the foundation part to the bearing part in an arc shaped manner. The anti-vibration part comprises a bracket with two parallely aligned end sections. The bracket comprises legs (24a, 24b) whose distance from each other steadily decreases in a region adjacent to the sections under formation of a turning point. The legs are exchanged in the sections that are connected with each other by an arc (22). The shape memory material is nickel titanium alloy.
