  • Integral regenerative fluid system
    Patent number: 5233909
    Abstract: This integral regenerative system is particularly well suited for retrofitting to standard hydraulic systems which did not originally employ regeneration circuitry. To reduce the amount of external plumbing and valving normally associated with retrofitting, the invention utilizes the integration of uniquely directed flow paths and specially configured valves into its housing components. The valves provide fluid flow control within the system and automatically prevent undesirable drainage of fluid from the system.
