ABSTRACT:
A check valve assembly for a shock absorber includes a tapered valve seat and a polygonal check valve which includes a plurality of flat surfaces. Each pair of flat surfaces intersects at a linear engagement surface which slidably engages a cylindrical chamber. When the polygonal check valve is in an open position, fluid flows along the flat surfaces even though the linear engagement surfaces are essentially in contact with the cylindrical chamber. Lateral movement of the check valve is effectively eliminated which minimizes noise and vibration of the cheek valve assembly.
