Abstract:
A compressed air landing strut comprising:a pneumatic shock absorber with a rolling bellows which encloses a spring space, a roll-off piston along which the rolling bellows can roll, a spring support that is plunged into the roll-off piston, with an offset in which the roll-off piston is braced, a ring-shaped gasket which is located between the spring support and the roll-off piston, and seals the spring space against the environment, wherein on the offset of the spring support there is the ring-shaped gasket in form of an O-ring whose cross sectional surface diameter is sized so that it covers at least the width of the offset, and that the end region of the roll-off piston facing the spring support is flared radially outward, and the spring support is plunged into the roll-off piston in such a manner that and the roll-off piston is braced in the axial direction against the offset, whereby the O-ring is located between the offset and the inner wall of the roll-off piston in such a manner, that the O-ring is compressed radially between the outer wall of the spring support and the inner wall of the end region of the roll-off piston.
