Improvements in a device to absorb the stresses that occur as shock, especially in the case of central damping couplings of rail vehicles, where for the cancellation of kinetic energy, a deformable tube is introduced under pressure, under reduction of the diameter, in a pressure tube, reducing the diameter in a conical surface of the pressure tube, characterized in that in the deformable tube (13, 36, 42) a flange (22, 37, 45) is provided, the which is applied at the end of the pressure tube (11, 31, 48) and whose shear stress corresponds to the pressure pulse that is absorbed.
