  2. Coilover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coilover

    Coilovers are used in double wishbone suspension systems, [2] and are often a component of MacPherson struts. [3] Two of the main types of coilovers are full coilovers and slip-on coilovers. Full coilovers are matched up with a shock absorber from the factory, while with slip-on coilovers, the dampers and springs are bought separately and then ...

  3. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    Pneumatically-actuated globe valves and diaphragm valves are widely used for control purposes in many industries, although quarter-turn types such as (modified) ball and butterfly valves are also used. Control valves can also work with hydraulic actuators (also known as hydraulic pilots). These types of valves are also known as automatic ...

  4. Variable Valve Control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_Valve_Control

    In order to improve the optimisation of the valve timing for differing engine speeds and loads, the system is able to vary the timing and duration of the inlet valve opening. It achieves this by using a complex and finely machined mechanism to drive the inlet camshafts.

  5. Motorcycle suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_suspension

    The hydraulic shock absorbers used on the rear suspensions of motorcycles are essentially the same as those used in other vehicle applications. Motorcycle shocks do differ slightly in that they nearly always use a coil-over spring. In other words, the spring for the rear suspension is a coil spring that is installed over, or around, the shock.

  7. Valve job - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_job

    A valve job is the colloquial term for resurfacing the mating surfaces of the poppet valves and their respective valve seats that control the intake and exhaust of the air/fuel mixture in four stroke internal combustion engine, replacing valve oil seals, replacing any deficient valve springs, and otherwise bringing the components of a cylinder head up to manufacturer’s spec. [1] A ...

  8. Variator (variable valve timing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variator_(variable_valve...

    The inlet camshaft position is advanced 25 degrees, thus increasing valve overlap. It remains in this advanced state until about 5000 rpm when the solenoid switches off, and the variator piston returns the valve timing to its natural state. The variable timing increases the engine's mid-range flexibility and reduces emissions.

  9. KW Automotive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KW_Automotive

    In 1995, the first coilover suspension system by the company was introduced by Klaus and his brother Jürgen Wohlfarth. This system was approved by the TÜV and was presented at the Essen Motor Show. The company shifted their focus fully to suspension in 1996, under the new name KW Coilover Suspensions in a new 150 square metre facility.
