A stripping device comprising a stripping ring and a locating ring. The stripping ring is set on a holder in a fitted position thereof. The locating ring is resiliently elastic in design and fits in an annular groove provided in the holder for axially locking the stripping ring in relation to the holder. The stripping ring and the locating ring are attached together with the formation of a subassembly. It is in this manner that the stripping device may be relatively simply produced and handled.

Stripping device

A linear drive comprising a drive member adapted to be reciprocated axially in a housing between two end positions. Opposite to the former there is a wall on at least one axial side. There are means to reduce the impact in the end position, such means having an annular lip. The lip is arranged on the drive member or on the wall and respectively faces the wall or the housing. The lip defines a damping space which is open on an impact side. If the drive member approaches one end position thereof, the damping space is occluded and reduced in volume so that some trapped fluid will escape via a relief opening so that there is a braked part of the stroke. Using simple means it is therefore possible to provide an extremely efficient fluid damping at the end position.
