Abstract:
An aircraft landing gear shock absorber having an inner housing portion slidably coupled within an outer housing portion, and a chamber which defines a sealed fluid volume for containing shock absorber fluid within the shock absorber. The chamber includes a moveable wall portion arranged to move between a first position and a second position, and in the second position the effective volume of the chamber is decreased such that the shock absorber fluid pressure increases, to provide a bump to the shock absorber.
