Abstract:
A multi-mode air shock is disclosed herein. The air shock includes an air spring having a primary air chamber, and a damper having an insertion end to telescope within the primary air chamber and a coupler to couple with a portion of a vehicle. An adjuster housing is fixedly coupled to an end of the air spring opposite of the damper, the adjuster housing having a secondary air chamber in communication with the primary air chamber and a mounting structure to couple with a different portion of the vehicle. There is a bulkhead with a valve to open or close the fluid communication between the primary air chamber and the secondary air chamber. The air shock also includes a tertiary air chamber in fluid communication with the secondary air chamber but not in fluid communication with the primary air chamber except via the secondary air chamber.

Claim (Index 11):
A multi-mode air shock comprising:\n an air spring, the air spring comprising:\n a primary air chamber formed by a tubular outer wall; \n a damper, the damper partially inserted into an opening on one end of the air spring, the damper comprising:\n an insertion end to telescope within the primary air chamber; and \n a coupler to couple with a portion of a vehicle; \n an adjuster housing, the adjuster housing fixedly coupled to an end of the air spring opposite of the opening into which the damper is partially inserted, the adjuster housingcomprising:\n a secondary air chamber, the secondary air chamber in communication with the primary air chamber; \n a mounting structure to couple with a different portion of the vehicle; \n a bulkhead between the primary air chamber and the secondary air chamber, thebulkhead comprising:\n a first valve to control a fluid communication between the primary air chamber and the secondary air chamber; and \n a tertiary air chamber, the tertiary air chamber in fluid communication with said secondary air chamber,\n the tertiary air chamber is an air sleeve coupled about an outside perimeter of at least a portion of the air spring, \n the tertiary air chamber not in fluid communication with said primary air chamber; and \n a second valve to control a fluid communication between the secondary air chamber and the tertiary air chamber,\n the first valve and the second valve being independently operable.
