A method of inflating a bellows accumulator of a vehicle suspension system includes providing a housing with an accumulator port and an inflation port and inserting a bellows assembly within the housing. The bellows assembly includes an annular bellows wall at least partially defining a variable volume plenum. The bellows assembly is axially extendable between a retracted position and a fully extended position. The air chamber is in fluid communication with the inflation inlet. An energy storage chamber between the housing and the bellows assembly is in fluid communication with the accumulator port. The method further includes evacuating the energy storage chamber when the bellows assembly is not in the fully extended position such that a pressure less than atmospheric pressure is obtained within the energy storage chamber, and supplying pressurized gas to the inflation port.

    本申请提供了一种为车辆悬架系统的波纹管蓄能器充气的方法,包括提供一个带有蓄能器端口和充气端口的外壳,并在外壳内插入一个波纹管组件。波纹管组件包括一个环形波纹管壁,至少部分限定了一个容积可变的气室。波纹管组件可在缩回位置和完全伸展位置之间轴向伸展。气室与充气口流体相通。在外壳和波纹管组件之间有一个蓄能室,与蓄能器端口流体相通。该方法还包括在波纹管组件未处于完全伸展位置时抽空蓄能室,以使蓄能室内获得小于大气压的压力,并向充气口供应加压气体。
