Hydraulic dampers are also known in which vibrations are damped or shocks are alleviated by providing a restriction on a piston in a hydraulic cylinder and forcing oil present in the cylinder air on one side of the piston to the other side through this restriction. Instead of a throttle, it is also possible to selectively connect the two cylinder spaces to a hydraulic pump or an oil tank via switching valves that are responsive to the position or movement of the wheels relative to the vehicle body. In this case, the mutual distance between the vehicle body and the wheels or the rate of change of this mutual distance is used as the quantity characterizing the position and movement of the wheels relative to the vehicle body. This ensures sufficient driving safety with respect to sufficient dynamic loads on the wheels, ie force fluctuations between the wheels and the ground.

It is known to use hydraulic-pneumatic springs instead of metal springs for the suspension of automobile bodies, which has the advantage of softening the spring effect due to the small spring constant of air springs. At that time, the vehicle height can also be adjusted by changing the amount of oil in the hydraulic parts using a hydraulic pump. On the other hand, a hydraulic damper is also known in which a piston in a hydraulic cylinder is provided with a restriction, and the oil in the cylinder space on one side of the piston is pushed to the other side through this restriction, thereby damping vibrations and mitigating shocks. Instead of a throttle, it is also possible to selectively connect both cylinder spaces to a hydraulic pump or an oil tank via a switching valve.
