Abstract
A device for damping movement of a telescopic guard including a plurality of box-shaped cover elements which slide inside each other in a defined direction. A plurality of leaf springs respectively connect the rear edges of the box-shaped elements to the rear edges of adjacent box-shaped elements. A guide rod is connected to each box-shaped element and is slidably connected to the adjacent box-shaped element. The guide rod slides in a friction element attached to an adjacent box-shaped element. Two circular bellows are fitted around the rod.
Claims21
In combination with a telescopic guard device comprising a plurality of associated box-shaped cover elements that telescopically slide inside each other along a defined path, a damping device comprising:
- a plurality of elastic means which respectively connect each associated box-shaped element to an adjacent smaller associated box-shaped element, said elastic means being fixed to the rear edge of each associated box-shaped element and to the rear edge of the adjacent smaller associated box-shaped element.
In combination with a telescopic guard device comprising a plurality of box-shaped cover elements that telescopically slide inside each other along a defined path, a device for interconnecting and damping relative movement of a first box-shaped cover element and an adjacent smaller box-shaped cover element of the telescopic guard device, said device comprising an elastic member having a first portion fixedly secured to the first box-shaped element and a second portion fixedly secured to the second box-shaped element.
