Abstract
A pressurized medium activated working cylinder with a piston that can move longitudinally in a cylinder chamber between two end positions has a device for damping the movement of the piston when it approaches each end position. This device comprises, e.g., a damping pin arranged at the cylinder cover, which is inserted into a corresponding receptacle opening in the piston when the piston approaches the end position. The damping pin and the receptacle opening are arranged eccentric to a side of the piston rod, wherein the receptacle opening opens into a part projecting into the cylinder chamber.
