Abstract
A piston for a pneumatic, hydraulic or hydropneumatic fluid-filled cylinder includes a constantly open throttled passage therethrough comprised by at least one spiral-shaped throttled channel extending in a plane perpendicular to the piston axis. The spiral configuration of the throttled channel permits the use of a relatively large flow cross section in the channel, thereby preventing clogging of the throttling passage by contaminants entrained in the damping medium, while still providing the desired damping effect.
