ABSTRACT:
A shock absorber of the invention comprises a strut, a inner cylinder fixed to the strut and extending inside the strut, and a sliding cylinder mounted to slide inside the strut and associated with the inner cylinder to communicate with the inside thereof via throttling orifices and short-circuit orifices, a pump and control arrangement being provided to pump hydraulic liquid from the sliding cylinder into the inner cylinder so as to produce a retraction of the sliding cylinder into the strut when both the throttling and short-circuit orifices are closed. The throttle orifices produce a communication between the sliding cylinder and the inner cylinder which produces a normal damping operation of the strut while the short-circuit orifices provide a rapid release of the sliding cylinder from a retracted position and a control member selectively closes one or both of the orifices.
