I'm building an attachment for a skid steer to work almost like a grader, the grader portion will need to hang off the side of the machine and pivot when it comes in contact with an obstacle. The cylinder will need to retract at the added pressure from the obstacle and extend when the obstacle has passed. I'm having difficulty figuring out the best way to accomplish this, torsion springs and compression springs didn't work. There was a similar setup on a mower (see pic). It looks to me, that there is a single acting cylinder, followed by a manifold, to an electric pressure switch (just a guess), to an accumulator. Any help would be greatly appreciated. There is also a video
22 seconds to 44 seconds in.
