VEHICLE COMPRISING A SHOCK ABSORPTION SYSTEM WITH ELECTRICAL ENERGY GENERATION

The invention, as expressed by the title of the present description, relates to a shock absorption system with electrical energy generation, for vehicles, which provides advantages and features to the function for which it is intended, which are described in detail below and which entail an improvement to the current prior art. The subject matter of the present invention concerns an improved shock absorption system in which all the shock absorbers of the vehicle are connected together by means of a fluid circuit, each shock absorber having two one-way inlet valves and two one-way outlet valves, such that, both in the ascending and descending movements of the piston of the shock absorber, a pressure increase is produced in one of the chambers thereof and a vacuum in the opposite chamber, establishing a means of compensation with the rest of the shock absorbers by regulating the inlet and outlet flow, wherein said flow passes through a small turbine associated with an alternator in which electrical energy is generated for use in the vehicle. The system is further distinguished in that it comprises: a device for regulating flow and damping the pulsing movement thereof, from where the flow is directed to the turbine; and a reserve tank located after the turbine to cover the amount of fluid that accumulates in the pulse-damper/regulator, thereby optimising the performance of the system.
