Abstract

551,962. Hydraulic shock absorbers. COWEY, L. E. Dec. 2, 1941, No. 15528. [Class 108 (iii)] [Also in Group XXXIII] A shock-absorbing strut for an aircraft tail wheel or nose wheel as described in Specification 542,709 has its oil and air valve arranged in a tubular pin connecting the wheel fork to the connecting rod of the shock absorber, so as to be accessible without jacking up the aircraft or disconnecting the wheel fork. The walls of the tubular pin are formed with openings to give access to the valve. As shown, a tubular pin 1 connects an attachment member 3 on the wheel fork to the connecting rod 2, and aligned holes 9,16,17 formed in the pin 1, connecting- rod, and attachment member, accommodate a valve member 11 at the lower end of a tube 6 passing through the piston 7 and into the air chamber of the shock absorbing device. The holes are normally covered by a rotatable circlip 13. A rectangular hole 14 is formed in the tubular pin 1 to permit insertion of the valve member 11 when at right angles to the position shown.
