Abstract
Vibration damper comprising a cylinder in which a piston rod is guided with freedom of axial movement, where the piston rod cooperates with a piston arrangement comprising a first, stationary piston and at least one additional piston, which is supported on the piston rod with freedom of axial movement against the elastic force of at least one restoring spring, where the cylinder is divided by the stationary piston and by the minimum of one axially movable piston into a working space on the side of the piston facing the piston rod, a working space on the side of the piston facing away from the piston rod, and a working space between the two pistons, where valve-equipped through-openings control a connection between the working spaces, and where the axial movement of the minimum of one axially movable piston is limited by a hydraulic pressure stop.
