Abstract:
An automobile stabilizing assembly comprising:(a) a right cylinder having a hydraulic fluid filled interior space, the hydraulic fluid filled interior space of the right cylinder having a first end and a second end, the right cylinder having a first and a second wall spanning across its hydraulic fluid filled interior space, such first and second walls defining a first chamber, the first wall of the right cylinder having a piston shaft receiving aperture extending therethrough, the right cylinder having first and second hydraulic fluid exchange ports extending into its first chamber;(b) a right piston assembly comprising a first piston slidably mounted within the first chamber of the right cylinder, and comprising a right piston shaft extending through the piston shaft receiving apertures of the first wall of the right cylinder, the right piston shaft being fixedly attached to said first piston, said first piston being positioned for sliding motion between the first and second hydraulic fluid exchange ports of the right cylinder;(c) a left cylinder having a hydraulic fluid filled interior space, the hydraulic fluid filled interior space of the left cylinder having a first end and a second end, the left cylinder having a first and a second wall spanning across its hydraulic fluid filled interior space, such first and second walls defining a first chamber, the first wall of the left cylinder having a piston shaft receiving aperture extending therethrough, the left cylinder having first and second hydraulic fluid exchange ports extending into its first chamber;(d) a left piston assembly comprising a first piston slidably mounted within the first chamber of the left cylinder, and comprising a left piston shaft extending through the piston shaft receiving apertures of the first wall of the left cylinder, the left piston shaft being fixedly attached to said first piston, said first piston being positioned for sliding motion between the first and second hydraulic fluid exchange ports of the left cylinder;(e) a first hydraulic fluid carrying tube interconnecting the first hydraulic fluid exchange port of the right cylinder and the second hydraulic fluid exchange port of the left cylinder;(f) a second hydraulic fluid carrying tube interconnecting the second hydraulic fluid exchange port of the right cylinder and the first hydraulic fluid exchange port of the left cylinder;(g) right and left floating piston gas cushion cylinders;(h) means for transmitting fluid pressure from the first chamber of the right cylinder to the right floating piston gas cushion cylinder; and,(i) means for transmitting fluid pressure from the first chamber of the left cylinder to the left floating piston gas cushion cylinder.
