Abstract:
A separating piston for a vibration damping system having a cylinder which is partially filled with damping fluid and partially with pressure gas, the separating piston being arrangable in the cylinder so as to separate a pressure gas space from a fluid space in a sealing manner, the separating piston comprising:a piston body having a longitudinal axis;a guide mounted in the piston body so as to guide the piston body in the cylinder;a seal for sealing the gas space from the fluid space; andan additional guide mounted in the piston body between the seal and an end side of the piston body facing the pressure gas space, a chamber being arranged in the piston body in an area between the seal and the additional guide so as to be open relative to an inner wall of the cylinder, the seal being arranged between the guide and the additional guide at an axial distance from both the guide and the additional guide so as to be separated from both guides.
