I only know "on the side of", and no: it's "Zylinderraum" and not just "Zylinder"
Note from asker:
Thanks for your input. The reference you sent is for an internal combustion engine rather than a hydraulic cylinder, so I don't see the direct application to my question. Maybe I'm just missing it. I like "on the side of," though. However, I think this is a back-translation, so I am now considering a completely literal translation here: "annulus-side" and "cylinder-side." Do you think that's good idea?
Peer comment(s):

neutral philgoddard : I think it may mean "in the cylinder chamber".

no, the two questions taken together, certainly not "in", and it is a patent, don't forget, patents generally talk about "on the side of"
agree Richard Stephen
