Patent number: 11512718Abstract: A hydraulic pressure amplifier arrangement (1) comprising a supply port (IN), a return port (R), a high pressure port (H1), and a pressure amplifier unit (2) having a low pressure inlet (3) connected to the supply port (IN) and a high pressure outlet (4) connected to the high pressure port (H1) is described, wherein the pressure amplifier unit (2) comprises an amplification factor. In such a hydraulic pressure amplifier arrangement it should be possible to allow simply releasing off pressure at the high pressure port while keeping small unnecessary energy consumption. To this end a control valve (8) is arranged in a connection between the high pressure port (H1) and the return port (R).Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2021Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: miniBOOSTER Hydraulics A/SInventors: Christen Espersen, Peter Leonhard Wasmer, Thyge Bollmann, Peter J.

Publication number: 20040115070Abstract: A pressure intensifier for fluids has an intensifier piston with a high-pressure piston and a low-pressure piston having a greater diameter than the high-pressure piston. The pistons are moveable in a high-pressure cylinder and a low-pressure cylinder, respectively, and move together. The high-pressure cylinder is connected to a high-pressure connection. A first control line is connected to a supply connector. A second control line is connected to a control valve having first and second switching positions. A first connection connects the control lines. The low-pressure cylinder is connected via the control valve in the first switching position to a supply connector and in the second switching position to a return connector. The switching positions are controlled by the intensifier piston. The intensifier piston opens or closes the first connection between the control lines. The first connection is arranged completely within a movement stroke of the high-pressure piston.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2003Publication date: June 17, 2004Inventors: Johannes V.
