The invention relates to piston and cylinder unit with a regulating valve for controlling the speed of the piston. The regulating valve has an open position in which it allows free passage of a fluid to the piston and a choking position in which it reduces the rate of such flow for influencing the speed of the piston. Furthermore there is at least one sensor responding to a given position of the piston and designed to change over the setting of the regulating valve. The sensor is an inductive, electrical or magnetic contactless sensor. The regulating valve has a setting unit electrically operated by the regulating valve so that the regulating valve is switched between its open and choked positions.

A piston and cylinder unit comprising a cylinder, a piston sliding in the cylinder, a piston rod attached to the piston, a regulating valve connected to said cylinder for controlling speed of motion of said piston in said cylinder, said regulating valve defining an open position to allow free passage therethrough of fluid for driving said unit and a choking position to choke the passage of fluid to said unit for the purpose of slowing down piston motion, at least one sensor designed to respond to a given position of said piston and to change the setting of said regulating valve following such response, said sensor being a contactless sensor and an electrically operated setting unit for operation of said regulating valve in response to a signal from said sensor for changing over said regulating valve between its open and choked positions, said regulating valve comprising a housing defining a first fluid duct for conducting fluid to said cylinder, said regulating valve further comprising a valve plug capable of extending into said duct to a greater or lesser extent for choking fluid flow to said cylinder, and externally accessible means for adjusting such depth of extension into said duct.
