Attorney, Agent or Firm:
In a cylinder with two-step movement there is in a housing (7) a first piston (6) which slides in contact with the inside of the housing. A second piston (10), which supports a piston rod (11), which moves sealingly through a first end-piece (8) also slides against the inside of the housing. In the second end-piece (9) of the housing, there is a pressure medium tube (12) passing through the first piston (6) and which extends with its end distant from the second end-piece (9) into, and is guided against the inside of the tubular piston rod (11). |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1. In a cylinder with two-step movement, comprising a housing with a first and a second end piece, a first and a second piston sliding in contact with the inside of the housing, said second piston supporting a tube-shaped piston rod which moves sealingly through the first end piece of the housing, a pressure medium tube which is mounted in the second end piece and which passes through the first piston and extends into the tube-shaped piston rod and through which pressure medium can be led into or out of a first chamber between the first and the second pistons, and between the first end piece and the second piston a second chamber, and between the second end piece and the first piston a third chamber, the second and the third chambers each having a pressure medium connection; the improvement in which the end of the pressure medium tube extending into the piston rod has a contact portion adapted to contact the inside of the piston rod thus making the pressure medium tube serve as a guide both for the piston rod and for the second piston connected to the piston rod. 2. Cylinder according to claim 1, in which said contact portion comprises a slide sleeve mounted on the pressure medium tube. 3. Cylinder according to claim 2, in which said pressure medium tube and said slide sleeve have aligned openings therethrough that communicate between the interior of the pressure medium tube and said first chamber. 4. Cylinder according to claim 2, in which the end of the pressure medium tube remote from said second end piece has a radially outwardly extending flange against which one end of said slide sleeve abuts. 5. Cylinder according to claim 1, in which the pressure medium tube is a guide for the first piston as it moves. 6. Cylinder according to claim 5, in which the pressure medium tube has a stop for the first piston to limit its movement away from the second end piece. 7. Cylinder according to claim 6, in which said stop is adjustable axially of the housing. 8. Cylinder according to claim 7, in which said stop is rigidly mounted on the pressure medium tube which is in turn adjustable axially in the cylinder
