A pulley assembly for raising and lowering an associated vehicle body comprising a housing including an outer sleeve extending along an axis. At least one top pulley wheel is operably connected to the outer sleeve and at least one bottom pulley wheel is operably connected to the outer sleeve and moveable relative to the at least one top pulley wheel along the axis. A cable is weaved between the at least one top pulley wheel and the at least one bottom pulley wheel. An actuator is operably connected to the cable to reel-in the cable and draw the at least one top pulley wheel towards the at least one bottom pulley wheel to lower the associated vehicle body. The actuator further reels-out the cable to permit the at least one top pulley wheel to move away from the at least one bottom pulley wheel to raise the associated vehicle body.

Pulley assembly for raising and lowering the height of a vehicle

An air suspension assembly includes a top and a piston. A bellows connects the top and the piston defining a first chamber. The piston includes an upper portion defining a bore in communication with the first chamber. A body extends outwardly from the upper portion to a proximal end defining a second chamber. A decoupler is disposed in the bore in communication with the first chamber and the second chamber. The decoupler includes a partition member extending across the decoupler isolating the first chamber from the second chamber for changing pressure in response to a pressure applied to the air suspension assembly. The decoupler includes a cap portion disposed in the bore, defining a hole, and an extension portion extending outwardly from the cap portion to a distal end defining a third chamber in communication with the hole, the first chamber, and the second chamber to receive the partition member.
