  • Patent number: 11603867
    Abstract: An electrohydrostatic actuator system comprising: a volume- and/or speed-variable hydraulic machine which is driven by an electric motor, for providing a volumetric flow of a hydraulic fluid; a differential cylinder with a piston side and a ring side; and at least one pretensioning source. The actuator system has a closed hydraulic circuit, wherein, during operation, the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic circuit is pressurized by means of the hydraulic machine and/or the pretensioning source. Furthermore, according to the invention, the differential cylinder provides a power motion operating mode and a rapid motion operating mode. In order to balance a volume of the hydraulic fluid in the closed hydraulic circuit, according to the invention an expansion reservoir is connected to the piston side of the differential cylinder via a valve.

  • Publication number: 20230026318
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrohydrostatic system having a hydraulic cylinder comprising a first cylinder chamber and a second cylinder chamber. Furthermore, the electrohydrostatic system has a fluid hydraulic supply device for providing a hydraulic fluid, a fluid hydraulic motor pump unit, designed to provide a fluid hydraulic volume flow in order to move the hydraulic cylinder. A motor control device is designed to provide a rated current for an electrical drive of the fluid hydraulic motor pump unit. Moreover, the electrohydrostatic system has at least one fluid hydraulic safety valve, which on a first valve side is connected to one of the cylinder chambers of the hydraulic cylinder and on a second valve side is connected to the fluid hydraulic motor pump unit.

  • Patent number: 11053957
    Abstract: An electro-hydrostatic actuating drive has a variable-volume and/or variable-speed hydraulic machine, which is driven by an electric motor, for the provision of a volumetric flow of a hydraulic fluid. Furthermore, the actuating drive comprises a cylinder with a piston, a piston rod and a first piston chamber, a valve with a first position and a second position, which valve can be moved by a first hydraulic actuator into the first position and by a second hydraulic actuator into the second position, wherein the second position controls a greater volumetric flow of the hydraulic fluid than the first position, a sink, a main line which connects a first piston chamber of the cylinder to the sink and in which the hydraulic machine is arranged, an auxiliary line which connects the first piston chamber to the sink and in which the valve is arranged, a first control line to the first hydraulic actuator, and a second control line to the second hydraulic actuator.
