Abstract: A hydraulically driven clip applier includes: a pair of jaws that respectively include, at a tip end, a pair of gripping portions capable of holding a clip therebetween and are coupled to each other in a manner to allow the pair of gripping portions to be opened and closed and when a base end of the pair of jaws is opened, close the pair of gripping portions; and an opening/closing driving mechanism that is a cylinder mechanism including a rod and when supplied with an operating fluid, extends the rod. Base end portions of the pair of the jaws are positioned at a distance from each other. The opening/closing driving mechanism is configured to position a tip end of the rod between the base end portions of the pair of jaws and open the base end of the pair of jaws by extending the rod.

Abstract: A spool valve includes: a housing including a spool hole; a spool inserted into the spool hole of the housing so as to be movable in an axial direction; a screw shaft arranged coaxially with the spool; an electric motor configured to rotate the screw shaft; a nut threadedly engaged with the screw shaft and configured to move in the axial direction when the screw shaft is rotated; a coupler through which the nut and the spool are coupled to each other; and a coil spring configured to apply biasing force to the spool, the biasing force acting so as to maintain the spool at a neutral position, the coil spring being arranged so as to overlap the nut when viewed from a radial direction of the screw shaft.

Abstract: A hydraulic drive apparatus includes: an electric motor; a variable displacement pump driven by the electric motor, the pump including a pair of pump ports whose delivery side and suction side are switched with each other in accordance with a rotation direction of the electric motor; a hydraulic actuator connected to the pair of pump ports by a first supply/discharge line and a second supply/discharge line; and a control device that controls the electric motor based on an actuator position command value for the hydraulic actuator. The pump is configured such that a volume of the pump decreases in accordance with increase in a pressure difference between the first supply/discharge line and the second supply/discharge line.

Abstract: A rotary actuator includes: a housing including an interior space in which a vane is disposed; and a cover that is attached to the housing and covers the interior space.
