  • Publication number: 20140000448
    Abstract: An actuator for relatively moving two parts in a damped manner. The actuator includes a damper housing for connection to a first of the parts. The damper housing includes a damper chamber. The actuator includes a drivable damper rod for connection to a second of the parts and being movable relative to the damper housing. The damper rod includes a damper unit located within the damper chamber. The damper unit is relatively movable within the damper chamber with the damper unit movement corresponding to the relative movement between the damper housing and damper rod and the relative movement between the first and second parts. The damper unit is movable in response to hydraulic pressure force upon the damper unit. The actuator includes a pneumatic pressure source for providing a pneumatic pressure force that is transferred to provide the hydraulic pressure force upon the damper unit.
