Abstract

243,079. Lobelle, M. Aug. 23, 1924. Buffers and arrangements of springs; non- metallic springs; vibration-dampers. - A shockabsorber, particularly for use on the landing carriages of aircraft, comprises a number of rubber balls b of approximately the same diameter as their cylindrical container a, the balls being compressed by the piston-like end of the plunger e. A helical spring h gives the rubber balls a small initial compression and takes the recoil, while an annular rubber buffer q serves as an emergency stop. The balls act as a vibrationdamper owing to the increasing frictional resistance as the balls exposed against the wall of the container during compression. Streamline fairing r, c may be provided. Each ball may comprise a wound core of tensional rubber strip enclosed in a vulcanized rubber or balata cover.
