According to an illustrative example of the invention a cylinder (1) is subdivided by a stationary partition wall (9,10,11) into two pressure chambers (8,16). A first piston rod (2) is sealingly introduced from atmosphere through one end wall of the cylinder into a first pressure chamber (8) provided on one side of the partition wall. A second piston rod (14) sealingly extends through said partition wall (9,10,11) from the first pressure chamber (8) on one side of the partition wall to a second pressure chamber (16) on the other side of the partition wall. A lower gas pressure is provided in the first pressure chamber and a higher gas pressure is provided in the second pressure chamber. Abutment faces (17) are allocated to the first and to the second piston rod. On inward movement of the first piston rod with respect to the cylinder the abutment faces enter into engagement after a predetermined path of inward movement of the first piston rod. |
