IMHO TLC is not producing longer cylinders becase when piston is sticked out
it can become bent
in two ways
1. as a rod
2. in the place where rod's connected to the piston (inside)

it is a very big problem to make piston's rod stiff and seal it up

It probably works just like a forklift chain.  It doubles the extension • distance

the best.

Sorry I have no pictures or drawings to show you.

Take care.
