Abstract
An assembly for multi-stage damping comprising a damping unitincluding a decouplerdefining an annular zonesurrounding a circular zone. The annular zoneextends inwardly from an outer ringto define a ring shape for flexing with the circular zonein a first modeto maximize the potential volume of displacement between a first chamberand a second chamber. Additionally, the assembly provides for flexing the annular zoneindependently of the circular zonein a second modeto decrease the potential volume of displacement of the decouplerbetween the first chamberand the second chamber. The decouplerincludes a plurality of ringsextending axially from a first surfaceand a second surfacefor defining an axial travel limit for the annular zone
