Abstract: A hydraulic hammer assembly is disclosed. The hydraulic hammer assembly includes a piston and an accumulator membrane disposed external and coaxial to the piston The hydraulic hammer assembly includes a sleeve disposed coaxially between the piston and the accumulator membrane. The sleeve defines a first set of holes in an outer surface thereof to receive hydraulic fluid.

The sleeve defines a plurality of passages within a wall, and extending along the longitudinal axis. Each of the plurality of passages includes a porous medium to increase surface area of each of the plurality of passages. The increased surface area of each of the plurality of passages increases a rate of dissipation of heat from the wall of the sleeve.

The housing member includes a first set of channels and a second set of channels. The first set of channels is disposed along a first axis and the second set of channels is disposed along a second axis in an orthogonal direction with respect to the first axis. The hammer assembly is rotated by an angle to make use of any one of the first set of channels or the second set of channels. The first set of channels is shaped to receive a first set of pins and the second set of channels is shaped to receive a second set of pins for engagement of the housing member and the tool member.

Abstract: A lubrication system for a hydraulic hammer is disclosed. The lubrication system includes a housing having a first chamber, and a control valve, disposed proximal to a first end of the first chamber, moveable from a closed position to an open position. A piston is received within the first chamber and moveable between a first position and a second position. The piston includes a first end having a cavity, and a second end facing towards a second chamber, which receives hydraulic fluid therein. In the second position, when the first chamber is filled with air in the first position of the piston, the cavity defined at the first end of the piston maintains pressure of the air less than a biasing force of a resilient member that keeps the control valve in the closed position.

The attachment bracket further includes a restraining member for restricting axial and rotational movement of the pin with respect to the mounting portion.

Abstract: A sleeve is disclosed for use with a piston of a hydraulic hammer. The sleeve may have a generally cylindrical body with a top end and a bottom end, and a central bore passing axially from the top end of the generally cylindrical body to the bottom end. The generally cylindrical body may be a composite structure including a guide layer forming an inner annular surface of the central bore, an energizer layer located radially outward of the guide layer and being bonded to the guide layer, and a support layer bonded to the energizer layer. The support layer may form an outer surface of the generally cylindrical body.

Abstract: A hydraulic hammer for a machine is provided. The hydraulic hammer includes a housing and a piston disposed within the housing and adapted to reciprocate along a longitudinal axis of the housing. The hydraulic hammer further includes a first chamber and a second chamber defined within the housing. The hydraulic hammer further includes a primary passage extending from an inlet and branching into a first passage and a second passage. The first passage fluidly communicates the primary passage with the first chamber and the second passage fluidly communicates the primary passage with the second chamber. The hydraulic hammer further includes a flow control device coupled to the first passage. The flow control device includes a valve element adapted to move between a first position and a second position based on an input signal indicative of a pressure of charge in the first chamber.

Abstract: A charging system for a hydraulic hammer is disclosed. The charging system includes a charge plug. The charge plug is disposed on an opening defined in the wall housing connected to the top end of the power cell of a hammer. The charge plug is fluidly communicated to the chamber via a conduit. The charge plug includes a first compartment. The first compartment is configured to receive a first chemical substance. The charge plug also includes a second compartment. The second compartment is configured to receive a second chemical substance. The first compartment and the second compartment are covered by a membrane. A pressure difference causes collapsing of the membrane to allow the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance is allowed to react with each other. The reaction of the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance pressurizes the air within the chamber to a desired pressure.

Abstract: A hydraulic hammer is provided. The hydraulic hammer includes a housing member. The hydraulic hammer also includes a power cell disposed within the housing member. The power cell includes an outer casing. The hydraulic hammer also includes a work tool operatively coupled with the power cell. The hydraulic hammer also includes one or more bushing parts arranged within the outer casing of the power cell. The one or more bushing parts are adapted to guide the work tool during an operation of the hydraulic hammer. The one or more bushing parts include a first surface and a second surface spaced apart from the first surface. The hydraulic hammer also includes a wear indicating system for indicating a wear of the one or more bushing parts with respect to the first surface. The wear indicating system includes a first passage and a second passage.

Abstract: A clearance control system for a hydraulic hammer is disclosed. The hydraulic hammer includes a housing member, a power cell disposed within the housing member, a wear member disposed between the housing member and the power cell, and a clearance control system for controlling the predefined clearance between the wear member and the power cell.
