Shock absorber
In the case of jerky loads in drives (rotary movement) or in lines and ropes (pulling movement), shock absorbers should limit the scope of movement by absorbing energy and / or protect material. You come z. B. before:
- as a hard disk in drives (also fulfills other tasks)
- on mooring lines for pleasure craft
- on tow ropes
- with chain drives of motorcycles mostly on the rear wheel
