Patent attributes
A vehicle suspension is disclosed having a hydraulic actuator, a cylinder, a piston mounted inside the cylinder dividing the cylinder into a compression chamber and an extension chamber, and a supply hydraulic circuit connected to the actuator to supply the compression chamber and the extension chamber with working fluid. The supply hydraulic circuit includes a high-pressure line connected to a delivery port of a hydraulic pump, a low-pressure line connected to a suction port of the pump, a spool valve connected to the compression and extension chambers of the actuator and to the high-pressure line and to the low-pressure line to put the chambers of the actuator in communication with the lines of the supply hydraulic circuit, and a first pressure accumulator connected to the high-pressure line. The spool valve connects the compression chamber and/or the extension chamber of the actuator with the high-pressure line.
