DAMPER WITH VEHICLE HEIGHT ADJUSTING FUNCTION

摘要

A damper with a vehicle height adjusting function comprising a cylindrical case (12) vertically movably installed outside the damper body (1) of an inverted damper and connected to a damper rod (2), a pressure chamber (13) defined between the damper body (1) and the case (12) and having scaled therein a pressure medium having a low boiling point to undergo gas-liquid change, a heater disposed in the pressure chamber (13) for heating and vaporizing the pressure medium to raise the vehicle height by the vapor pressure of the pressure medium, wherein the heater is adapted for easy mounting and dismounting to improve the maintainability and the effect of the presence of the heater on the suspension stroke is reduced. The heater is formed in a bar shape, and this bar heater (16) is inserted horizontally into the bottom of the pressure chamber (13) through a mouth ring (12d) installed in the case (12), the tail end of the bar heater (16) being threadedly connected to the mouth ring (12d). <IMAGE>
