Abstract: A hydraulic damping cylinder for a prosthetic knee joint, including a housing, a cylinder chamber in the housing and filled with a hydraulic fluid, and a piston arranged in the cylinder chamber and movable by a piston rod. In the housing there are provided at least two separate receiving chambers, which are of different size and are connected to the cylinder chamber by fluid ducts, for hydraulic fluid displaced from the cylinder chamber during a piston movement The receiving chambers are each separated, by a diaphragm, from a compression chamber filled with a compressible fluid that forms an energy store. Upstream of the larger receiving chamber, there is connected a throttle device which forms a flow resistance for the hydraulic fluid flowing into the receiving chamber so that the hydraulic fluid can be distributed to the two receiving chambers in a manner dependent on speed of the piston movement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to ultralow monomer PU prepolymers containing free NCO groups obtainable from polyols, diisocyanates and NCO-reactive compounds, obtainable by reacting at least one polyol with at least one polyisocyanate, wherein the at least one polyisocyanate is used in molar excess relative to the hydroxyl groups of the at least one polyol to obtain a polyurethane prepolymer containing free isocyanate groups; and adding at least one compound having at least one H-acidic functional group to the polyurethane prepolymer containing free isocyanate groups in an amount such that the molar ratio of the free isocyanate groups to H-acidic functional groups (NCO:XH ratio) is 2 to 15, preferably 2.5 to 10, more preferably 3 to 8. Also encompassed are methods for its production, laminating adhesives containing said prepolymer, methods of bonding substrates and the use of the described adhesives for laminating two or more films.
