<p>A damper (10) comprises two telescopically movable housings (11, 12) containing a first damping chamber (24) for hydraulic fluid, a second damping chamber (28) for reception of hydraulic fluid from and return of fluid to the first chamber, and ducts (29) for conducting the fluid between the chambers. A piston (22) preferably actuable by compressed air of an integrated air spring is movable to displace fluid from the first to the second chamber by way of one of the ducts, the other duct serving for return flow. A respective valve (32) controls fluid flow through each duct and is arranged to act on the flow in a section of the associated duct in a fixed location in one (12) of the housings, the valve being adjustable externally of the housing to adjust the fluid flow rate. Each valve (32) can incorporate separate adjustments for low and high speeds of relative movement of the housings (11, 12) and additionally functions as a check valve preventing return flow.</p> |
