Abstract
A frictional damper comprises a housing which has a longitudinal axis, a plunger which can be moved along the longitudinal axis, a frictional unit for generating a frictional force on the plunger, the frictional unit comprising at least one friction lining for bearing rubbingly against the plunger, and a friction lining carrier, on which the at least one friction lining is held, the friction lining carrier being arranged such that it can be moved relative to the plunger in the housing between a pulled-out position and a pushed-in position, and a pulled-out friction acting in the pulled-out position, which pulled-out friction is different from the pushed-in friction which acts in the pushed-in position.
