    Abstract: A hydraulic pressure supply unit has a storage chamber which stores hydraulic fluid, a hydraulic pump which is arranged within the storage chamber and dips at least partially into the stored hydraulic fluid, and an electric motor which drives the hydraulic pump. The electric motor is arranged below the hydraulic pump in a separate motor chamber which is situated below the storage chamber, is dry, and is not connected fluidically to the storage chamber. The electric motor is coupled in a thermally transmitting manner to a separating floor, the upper side of which delimits the storage chamber and is wetted continuously with stored hydraulic fluid.

  • Patent number: 11767830
    Abstract: A hydraulic system has two hydraulic circuits, each with a pressure generating unit acting on an actuator unit. The generating units are slot-controlled radial piston pumps and form a pump assembly with a single common pump support and single common rotor. The rotor is rotatable on a free protruding section of a common support hub and has piston-receiving bores on axially offset planes. The hub has two first and two second fluid bores. The first bores communicate with first pump connections and first control openings on the hub on a first plane, and the second fluid bores communicate with second pump connections and second control openings on the hub on a second plane. A first and a second adjustment frame, each having an eccentric ring and acting on the pump pistons, are disposed on respective planes perpendicular to the main axis and independently guided in a linearly movable manner.

  • Patent number: 11465062
    Abstract: A passenger restraint device of a fairground ride passenger unit, having a passenger space, includes a position-adjustable restraint element and a lockable hydraulic adjuster which acts on the restraint element. The lockable hydraulic adjuster has a cylinder-piston unit and a hydraulic accumulator. The hydraulic accumulator and the cylinder-piston unit of the hydraulic adjuster form a structural unit with a cylinder of the cylinder-piston unit and a cylinder of the hydraulic accumulator arranged next to and parallel to each other as part of the integrated cylinder assembly. A common closure cover is provided on each end face of the integrated cylinder assembly. Please replace the specification with the attached substitute specification. A marked-up and clean version of the amended specification is submitted herewith.

  • Patent number: 11219562
    Abstract: In a mobile stretcher, in order to change the height position of a patient support mounted on a chassis, the chassis geometry is modifiable by a hydraulic drive system. The drive system includes a linear actuator, a pressure supply unit, and a receiving space for hydraulic fluid. A manually actuatable unlocking valve unit directly connects a lifting working chamber of the linear actuator to the receiving space. The valve unit has a control space delimited by a piston element movably guided relative to the housing of the valve unit and which communicates with a lifting attachment, which communicates with the working chamber. The piston element is operatively connected to a valve body interacting with a valve seat of a relief valve between the lifting attachment and a tank attachment communicating with the receiving space. A mechanical actuation input acts on the valve body, with a spring element interposed.

  • Patent number: 11078930
    Abstract: A hydromechanical linear converter has a cylinder, a piston unit and a seat valve unit. The cylinder and a piston of the piston unit delimit a hydraulic working chamber, into which a working connection and a further fluid connection open, and has a supply connection 10. The valve unit switches between a first position connecting the supply connection to the fluid connection and a second position blocking the fluid connection from the supply connection. The linear converter includes a valve housing with a valve seat 16, a valve body with a valve head cooperating with the seat, a spring unit preloading the valve body into a position corresponding to the first position and an electromagnetic actuator 14 acting on the valve body 12 by purely mechanical action, to move the valve body against the force of the spring unit into a position corresponding to the second switching position.

  • Patent number: 10961094
    Abstract: A lifting device comprises a delivery direction-reversible hydraulic unit and at least three hydraulic lifting cylinders. The hydraulic cylinders are dimensioned in a stepped manner in such a way that the piston rod working space of an n-th lifting cylinder and the piston working space of an (n+1)-th lifting cylinder, with n from 1 to z?1, wherein z indicates the number of hydraulic lifting cylinders of the lifting device, have the same effective area. The at least three lifting cylinders are hydraulically connected in series in such a way that the respective working spaces with the same effective area are directly fluidically coupled by means of a hydraulic connection. The piston working space of the first lifting cylinder and the piston rod working space of the z-th lifting cylinder are in fluid connection with the connections of the delivery direction-reversible hydraulic unit.

  • Patent number: 10813808
    Abstract: A chassis of a transportable device including a base structure, four casters arranged thereon, four lowerable and raiseable support feet also mounted on the base structure, and a hydraulic support foot actuating device. The hydraulic support foot actuating device has a reservoir (1), a pump (2) manually operable by hand or foot, four support foot linear actuators (3) and a purely hydro-mechanical pipe and valve arrangement (4) which connects the reservoir (1), the pump (2) and the linear actuators (3) to one another. Therein, by means of hydraulic fluid delivered by the pump (2) from the reservoir (1) the two support feet assigned to two primary linear actuators (3a) can be fully extended until a mechanical stop is reached while raising the base structure by first applying pressure to the two primary linear actuators (3a) before applying pressure to the two other, secondary linear actuators (3b).

  • Patent number: 10619653
    Abstract: An electrohydraulic linear actuator comprises a housing consisting of a tubular profile, which forms a housing shell and in which there is a plurality of cavities, and which is closed at the ends by two housing covers fitted to the ends of the housing shell. A first cavity of the tubular profile forms a cylinder which forms the hydraulic cylinder of a double-acting synchronous cylinder and a second cavity which extends parallel to the first cavity accommodates a hydraulic unit in addition to the hydraulic cylinder, and a hydraulic oil reservoir is formed in said second cavity. Two working chambers of the hydraulic cylinder are separated from each other by a piston unit. The housing has at least one through-hole for a coupling element which forms a mechanical interface with the piston unit. The electric motor of the hydraulic unit is configured as a brushless outrunner motor.
