Abstract: 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).

Abstract: A fluid supply unit includes a hydraulic supply unit and a pressure generator for the fluid and a pressure outlet. A pressure booster is installed between the pressure generator and the pressure outlet and is rigidly mechanically connected with the pressure generator, wherein the pressure booster (6) is driven by a portion of the fluid generated by the pump.

Abstract: A hydraulic pressure amplifier with a housing which has an end face at a low pressure side and an end face at a high pressure side and a circumferential wall between the two end faces, wherein an outlet valve is arranged adjacent the end face on the high pressure side, and an outlet duct for the hydraulic liquid which is under high pressure. In a pressure amplifier of the above-described type, the outlet duct opens into the circumferential wall or extends through a connection plug which is screwed into the end face on the high pressure side and closes off an assembly duct which receives the outlet valve.

Abstract: A hydraulic pressure intensifier includes a supply connection, a return connection, and a high-pressure connection. An intensifier piston assembly includes a high-pressure cylinder with a high-pressure piston displaceable therein and a low-pressure cylinder having a greater cross-section than the high-pressure cylinder, with a low-pressure piston which is displaceable therein.

Abstract: A cover for a bicycle seat which flexes with movements of the bicycle rider's legs to reduce or eliminate relative movement between the cover and the leg. The cover includes recess means adapted to accept a plurality of different padding inserts to produce a composite seat of any desired firmness and flexibility. The cover has a plurality of substantially longitudinally disposed grooves and raised portions which serve the dual functions of increasing air circulation between the seat cover and body of the rider and of providing an accordian-like movement with the up and down movements of the rider's legs to substantially reduce or eliminate relative movement between the seat cover and the legs of the rider.
