Abstract: A valve has a control slide (4) guided in a valve housing (6) so as to be longitudinally movable. The control slide selectively connects a plurality of fluid connection points (P, T, A, B) in the valve housing (6) to each other in a fluid-conducting manner or disconnects the fluid connection points from each other, and can be electrically controlled by a stepper motor (2). The control slide (4) can be actuated by an emergency device (34, 52) in the event of a malfunction or failure.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) blocks and adjusts a pressure for a hydraulically controllable actuator (12), particularly a lifting unit (16) of a machine (18). The apparatus (10) allows a working chamber (20, 22) to be selectively connected to a pressure supply unit (94) having a storage device (34) or to a discharge end (66), in particular a reservoir end, by a valve unit (38). In a controlling position of the valve unit (38), when the storage pressure in the storage device (34) is greater than the working pressure in the working chamber (20) of the actuator (12), the storage pressure is relieved in the direction of the discharge end (66) until the working pressure has been reached.

Abstract: A turbine valve actuator (100) controls a valve unit of a media-operated consumer unit, such as a steam or gas turbine, and has an actuating part drive (102) with a movable actuating part (104), a first media space (106) and a second media space (108). A pressure build up in the first media space (106) attempts to cause a movement of the actuating part (104) in a first direction (R). A pressure build-up in the second media space (108) attempts to cause a movement of the actuating part (104) in an opposing second direction (GR). The first media space (106) can be supplied with a fluid in predeterminable amounts by a supply (110). The second media space (108) is acted upon by a hydraulic accumulator (112) provided with a preload pressure and permanently connected to the second media space (108).

The actuating cylinder is mechanically connected to the boom on the other side for the direct introduction of force. The actuating cylinder is formed as a double-acting actuating cylinder having a piston, to which pressure can be applied on both sides in order to move the boom in opposite directions of rotation.

Abstract: A suspension device is for at least one drive part (10) that is to be cushioned. The drive part can be connected to an accumulator device (12) by a first valve unit (28) and to a tank connection (46) by a second valve unit (34) to transport fluid. The device is provided with a pressure compensation device (50), which when actuated compares the respective prevailing pressures in the drive part (10) and the accumulator device (12) to generate a common pressure level. This comparison permits the pressure level to be rapidly compensated in advance when the actual suspension is enabled in the form of the accumulator device, in such a way that the suspension pressure employed exactly matches the pressure of the respective drive part in the form of a hydraulic or working cylinder that prevails in the later as a result of the preceding load actuation operations.
