Abstract: An arrangement for providing a throttle cross-section for a fluid flow. The throttle cross-section can be varied depending on a pressure difference present across the throttle cross-section. The arrangement is designed such that the polarity of the pressure difference, by which the throttle cross-section can be varied and/or changed. It is thereby possible to use the arrangement for fluid flows that alternate in the flow direction thereof.

Abstract: Circuit for controlling a double-action hydraulic drive cylinder includes a directional control valve having working ports A and B, a pump port P, and a tank port T, wherein the directional control valve has a neutral position in which pump port P is blocked and working ports A, B are connected to tank port T. A pressure-limiting valve and a controllable load-holding valve are connected to the piston space in parallel, and a regeneration check valve is connected in series between a connection point for the parallel components and the rod space. A first precharge valve is connected between the working port A and the connection point, and a first bypass check valve is connected anti-parallel parallel with the first precharge valve and the load-holding valve. A second precharge valve is connected in series with the directional control valve between the tank port P and the rod space.

Abstract: A hydraulic elevator with a pressure accumulator acting as a counterweight, includes a first pump for conveying hydraulic oil through a pump line, at least one valve unit, and a cylinder line to and from a hydraulic drive for a car, a second pump for conveying hydraulic oil by way of a solenoid valve from and to the pressure accumulator, which hydraulic oil can be supplied to and withdrawn from a tank. The two pumps are connected rigidly to each other and can be driven by an electric motor, the speed of which can be regulated. A single valve unit is installed between the first pump and the hydraulic drive, the valve unit being a relay-controllable valve and a first nonreturn valve connected in parallel to the relay-controllable valve. A control/automatic regulation unit is provided, and in order to control the speed of the car, acts on a power regulating unit for the electric motor, on the solenoid valve, and also, during descents, on the relay-controllable valve.
