ABSTRACT:
A compressible liquid ride strut includes a ported piston which reciprocates in a cylinder chamber to divide the chamber into two sections. The piston ports provide controlled flow of liquid from one section to the other. A valve member engages the piston upon extreme rebound strut extension to greatly diminish flow of liquid through the piston and increase the rebound dampening rate of the strut. The valve member is acted on by a pair of springs which hold the valve member away from the piston during normal operation and permit it to move against the piston during rebound.
