Abstract
A trim device includes a trim cylinder, a piston, a piston rod and a support member. The piston is slidable inside the trim cylinder, in the axial direction of the trim cylinder. The piston rod is connected with the piston and moves in the axial direction of the trim cylinder following the movement of the piston. The support member is slidable relative to the piston rod and arranged to support the piston rod so that the piston rod's axial center can become tilted with respect to the axial center of the cylinder.
