ABSTRACT:
A displacement sensitive valve mechanism incorporated in a shock absorber for a motor vehicle suspension which provides substantially unrestricted hydraulic flow between a first rebound chamber and a second rebound chamber through a first range of displacement of a piston rod and progressively restricts the hydraulic flow between the first rebound chamber and the second rebound chamber during a second range of displacement of the piston, thereby progressively increasing the dampening force resisting displacement of the piston in the second range of displacement.
