A device consisting of a piston that moves within a cylinder containing oil, used to dampen and control motion.dashpot (ˈdæʃˌpɒt) n (Mechanical Engineering) a device for damping vibrations; the vibrating part is attached to a piston moving in a liquid-filled cylinder[C20: from dash1 + pot1]Translationsdashpot
dashpot[′dash‚pät] (mechanical engineering) A device used to dampen and control a motion, in which an attached piston is loosely fitted to move slowly in a cylinder containing oil. dashpotA mechanical, hydraulic, or pneumatic damper used to cushion or slow down mechanical movement by restricting the flow of viscous fluid. Dashpots are used in shimmy dampers and in some power control systems, where they come into operation at high speeds to prevent pilot-induced oscillations. See dashpot throttle. |
