Abstract

A damping device, in particular for damping or avoiding pressure surges, such as pulses, in hydraulic supply circuits, preferably in the form of a silencer, has a damping housing surrounding a damping chamber and having a fluid inlet (3) and a fluid outlet (5). A fluid receiving chamber (7) extends between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A fluid flow crosses the damping chamber in a throughflow direction (11) from the fluid inlet (3) to the fluid outlet (5). Parts of the fluid receiving chamber (7) extend transversely with respect to the throughflow direction (11). The fluid receiving chamber (7) immediately adjoins the fluid inlet (3) and the fluid outlet (5). A guide element (51) is provided in the damping chamber. The fluid flow flows against the guide element changing the flow speed of the flow at least in sections.
