A hydraulic recoil device for a handgun or pistol is provided. The device includes a cylinder defining an interior hollow compartment having a first end and a second end. The device further includes a first resilient member; a piston assembly arranged adjacent to the first resilient member and at least partially within the cylinder, where the piston assembly includes a piston head, a piston rod, and a piston cap; a compressible accumulator arranged within the cylinder; and a second resilient member outside of the cylinder. When the piston rod is displaced toward the first end of the cylinder in operation, a hydraulic resistance is generated by the piston assembly, and when a first end of the second resilient member is displaced toward the second end of the cylinder in operation, additional resistance is generated by the second resilient member.

Hydraulic recoil device for handgun applications

A hydraulic energy absorption device including a cylindrical housing having an interior hollow compartment, the interior hollow compartment having a distal end and a proximal end, a resilient member arranged within the distal end of the cylindrical housing, a piston arranged adjacent to the resilient member within the cylindrical housing, the piston including a piston head and a piston rod extending from the piston head toward the proximal end and a compressible accumulator arranged within the cylindrical housing and connected to the piston. When the piston rod is displaced toward the distal end of the cylindrical housing in operation, the piston head and the compressible accumulator are displaced toward the distal end of the cylindrical housing.

Hydraulic energy absorption device with a displaceable accumulator

Disclosed herein in an energy absorption device that incorporates a diverse range of uses within a single shock absorber. The disclosed energy absorption device is a novel combination of interaction between various components (e.g., piston head, shock tube, cylinder end, external cylinder, and adjustment mechanism) within a single shock absorber. When the components disclosed herein are considered together and designed as an interrelated assembly, the ability to incorporate such a diverse range of uses within a single device emerges. The ability to combine dashpot, square wave, progressive wave, and self-compensating damping in a single device is unprecedented, as is the ability to deliver sublinear damping force vs. input velocity performance in an adjustable device. The disclosed device allows a user to make simpler sizing calculations and decisions, and provides the user with the ability to adjust the shock absorber to a specific application, for example, with the turn of an adjustment knob.
