ABSTRACT:
An impact energy absorbing apparatus having two cylinders coupled for telescopic movement under impact axially applied thereto. In addition to rigid balls press-fitted between the cylinders, the apparatus has idle rigid balls snugly fitted therebetween which are to be conducted for rolling movement along respective guide grooves of certain length formed on the cylinder. The characteristic of load-stroke relationship is thereby improved to provide optimum efficiency of impact absorption.
