  • Patent number: 8635866
    Abstract: A hydraulic system, especially in a high-pressure application, comprises a pressurized-fluid tank, a pressurized-fluid pump driven by a drive unit, at least one hydraulic load that can be pressurized thereby and a control and/or distribution unit connected fluidically between the pressurized-fluid pump and the load. This unit is provided with a housing and a core received therein and connected rigidly with the housing, which core bears with part of its surface in the region of a common, closed, especially cylindrical joint face with the housing on a corresponding inside face of a housing opening. Surface groove-like flow ducts are provided on the core and/or the housing in the region of the joint face, and the pressurized-fluid pump is directly built onto the control and/or distribution unit in the region of a free end face of the core.

  • Patent number: 6446538
    Abstract: An arrangement for hydraulic actuation of a movable component on vehicles, particularly a vehicle top, trunk lid, a cover or the like, includes at least one double-action working cylinder (1) whose working chambers are connected to a pressure source (5) via a pressure line (4) or whose working chambers are at least temporarily connectable thereto through a switching valve (11).

  • Patent number: 6354189
    Abstract: A pressure medium system, particularly a hydraulic system, which includes at least one working cylinder (pressure medium cylinder) and at least one pressure medium line for the supply and/or discharge of the pressure medium whereby assembly and disassembly is made possible, especially in vehicles, without great (manufacturing) efforts and by economic production by using a detachable retaining clamp (6) which grasps the outside of a pressure medium coupling (3) and an end piece (5) of the pressure medium line (4), which may be inserted into the pressure medium coupling (3).

  • Patent number: 5597367
    Abstract: An apparatus having two pistons journalled elastically yieldable counter to tensioning direction. As a consequence of double-acting construction, impacts or shocks of an endless drive and with that wear of a primary-side drive element, that is that of a tooth belt or chain connecting the crank shaft with the cam shaft can be avoided. If during operation of the apparatus moreover shocks or impacts arise and occur in the endless drive, then the pistons can yield elastically so that tensioning shoes fastened on the pistons are not subject to any increased wear. As a consequence of resilient damping of the shocks or impacts, the entire apparatus is also less strongly burdened and loaded so that a long life expectancy is assured. As a consequence of the elastically yieldable journalling, the pistons are always again loaded into the tensioning positioning thereof so that the tensioning of the endless drive is not influenced thereby.
