Push-type gas spring

Abstract

A push-type gas spring has a pressure tube having a pressure tube connector element for the external attachment of the push-type gas spring. The gas spring also has a piston, which is operable to slide back and forth axially in the pressure tube and has a piston rod, where the piston rod extends out of the pressure tube from a first end surface of the pressure tube and has a piston rod connector element for the external attachment of the push-type gas spring. So that tensile forces can be applied to the pressure tube connector element and the piston rod connector element, the pressure tube and the pressure tube connector element are connected to each other by a pressure tube tension element extending axially alongside the piston rod and/or the piston rod and the piston rod connector element are connected to each other by a piston rod tension element extending axially alongside the pressure tube.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
