ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic pulsation damper system for installation into an otherwise rigid hydraulic system to absorb and extinguish pressure pulsations being transmitted through the system by hydraulic fluid contained therein. The system is useful in suppressing pulsations in automotive fuel lines supplying fuel to fuel injection systems. The system includes fuel-conducting tubing made of flexible, non-permeable material that includes a convoluted central portion capable of expanding and contracting in response to pulsations in the fuel. Resilient foam is molded around the convoluted portion for controlling expansion of the convolutions. The foam and convoluted tubing are contained within a housing made from a larger-diameter hose having ends sealed as by swaged connectors. The damper system may be bent to accommodate installation with a fuel line in an engine and can conveniently provide a sound-deadening link in the fuel line of a vehicle between a body-mounted portion and an engine-mounted portion thereof.
