Abstract: A hydraulic lifting column comprising a base structure, a head structure and a lifting structure. The lifting structure comprising a hydraulic power unit and hydraulic linear actuators extending between the base structure and the head structure, the hydraulic power unit acting on the hydraulic linear actuators. The lifting structure comprising four linear actuator units with a mutually parallel, vertically oriented working direction. Each linear actuator unit comprising a double cylinder having two-cylinder bores arranged next to one another and two piston structures with piston rods oriented parallel to one another and extendable in opposite directions from the double cylinder. The four lower piston rods are connected to the base structure at the corners of a first quadrilateral and the four upper piston rods are connected to the head structure at the corners of a second quadrilateral.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fluidic actuator comprising a drive element (2) that can be supplied with a pressure fluid and a two-stage proportional position controller (3) controlling the supply with pressure fluid to the drive element, said actuator comprising an electro-fluidic pilot stage (10) of the position controller, exactly one electromechanical transducer (14) and exactly one proportional valve (16) actuated by said transducer and having a pressure fluid inlet (18), a control pressure outlet (19) and a discharge outlet (20). A fluidic power stage (11) of the position controller comprises two poppet valves (24, 25) having associated pressure-to-distance converters that are supplied by a common control chamber (34) which is connected to the control pressure outlet (19) of the pre-stage (10).
