  • Method of operating a cryogenic cooling device, and a cryogenic cooling device suitable for operation by this method
    Patent number: 5878580
    Abstract: This invention concerns a method of operating a cryogenic cooling device (1) with a cylinder (4, 5) in which a piston (6, 7) reciprocates and with a gas drive (8, 9) which produces the motion of the piston. In order to reduce the vibrations which occur during operation, the invention proposes that the gas drive (8, 9) is controlled in such a way that the piston (6, 7) is only accelerated for part of the stroke.
