Title:
PROTECTIVE COVER FOR PISTON ROD OF EXTENSIBLE ELASTIC ELEMENT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS60109632
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A protective covering for the piston rod of a telescoping spring element which includes a gas pressure cylinder and a piston rod. For protecting the piston rod during painting of the motor vehicle, the gas pressure cylinder is surrounded with a protective covering of sponge rubber which surrounds in a fluid-tight manner the cylinder casing and a sealing disk arranged at the free end of the piston rod. For the rapid removal of the protective covering after the painting operation, it is provided with a radially projecting tearing extension which has at its two base edges one cross-sectional reduction each formed by a longitudinal groove. The protective covering is longitudinally divided by these cross-sectional reductions, when tearing the tearing extension radially outwardly or in the longitudinal direction of the gas pressure cylinder, so that as a result thereof the protective covering then only has to be pulled off the gas pressure cylinder.
