Shock absorber for aircraft, has secondary annular chambers connected with respective control circuits to shorten and elongate total length of absorber, respectively, in view of compression and heightening of landing gear strut

摘要

The absorber has a pipe ram gate (13) sliding in a main case (11). A secondary case (26) slides telescopically on the gate and another secondary case (37) slides telescopically on the case (26). Secondary annular chambers (31, 39) are connected with respective control circuits (34, 35, 44, 45) to shorten and elongate the total length of the absorber, respectively, in view of compression and heightening of a landing gear. An Independent claim is also included for a landing gear of an aircraft.
