  • Patent number: 11618232
    Abstract: An electro-hydrostatic drive for realizing a rapid movement during a rapid movement phase, a force-building movement during a force-building movement phase. The apparatus comprises a hydro-machine with variable volume and/or rotational speed, driven by an electric motor, for providing a volume-stream of a hydraulic fluid, a first cylinder with a piston chamber, an rod chamber, and a plunger rod, a reservoir, a pressure source, a relief valve, a check valve, a fluid connection between the piston chamber and the hydro-machine, a fluid connection between the rod chamber and the hydro-machine, a fluid connection between the piston chamber and the reservoir, a fluid connection between the rod-chamber-side port of the hydro-machine and the reservoir, a fluid connection, through the relief valve, between the reservoir and the pressure source.

  • Patent number: 11577481
    Abstract: An electro-hydrostatic drive for realizing a rapid movement and a force-building movement, comprising a hydro-machine with variable volume and/or rotational speed, driven by an electric motor, for providing a volume-flow of a hydraulic fluid, a first cylinder with a housing, a piston, a cylinder rod, and a first and a second cylinder chamber, a second cylinder with a piston, a cylinder rod, and a first and a second cylinder chamber, a moveable carrier plate, a pillar, and a clamping apparatus to clamp and/or unclamp the first cylinder to the pillar, where the hydraulic drive has a closed hydraulic circuit, which has, when run, a positive pressure above atmospheric pressure and which, by utilizing the hydro-machine, can pressurize either the first or the second cylinder chamber of the first cylinder and/or the first or the second cylinder chamber of the second cylinder. The moveable carrier plate is connected both to the first cylinder and to the second cylinder.

  • 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.
