Abstract: A pneumatic motor includes a cylinder, a rotor and a drive shaft. The cylinder includes a cylinder body having two ends, a first cover and a second cover. The first cover is mounted on one of the ends of the cylinder body and has a first bearing housing, a first bearing and a first blocking ring. The first bearing is mounted in the first bearing housing and has an annular clearance. The first blocking ring is mounted between the first bearing housing and the first bearing and covers the annular clearance of the first bearing. The rotor is mounted rotatably in the cylinder body. The drive shaft is mounted securely through the rotor. When compressed air is expelled from the cylinder body, the compressed air does not blow lubricants out of the first bearing because the first blocking ring closes the annular clearance.

Abstract: A pneumatic cylinder designed to convert compressed air into mechanical output is disclosed. A piston assembly, sealed at both end by caps, contains and guides the motion of a piston assembly. Pressure forces on the piston assembly are transmitted via a mechanical structure that distends via a slot that runs the length of the piston assembly. A flexible steel band, which passes through the piston assembly, seals the slot to minimize air leakage. An air control device, such as a servo valve, is operatively coupled to the piston assembly and travels with the piston assembly when a differential pressure is produced on the piston assembly. This arrangement results in a dynamic relationship between airflow and differential pressure that is conducive to precision force and motion control. In addition, the end caps may include snubbers to diffuse sound waves associated with air moving in the piston assembly of the pneumatic cylinder.

Abstract: Repulsive magnetic forces in the axial direction of cylinder tubes act between the rows 11 of inner magnets of pistons 10, 10 accommodated in two cylinder tubes 2, 2, and the inner magnets 12 of the pistons 10 come to a halt being slightly deviated relative to the outer magnets 22 in the axial direction of the tube. Due to this deviation, a magnetic holding force Fc is produced between the inner and outer magnets 12, 22. Since the magnetic holding force Fc is produced in a static state, a smooth movement can be attained from a static state suppressing the occurrence of a stick slip phenomenon at the start of movement as compared to the prior art, which does not produce the magnetic holding force in a static state.

Abstract: A hydraulic actuator has an armored section having concentric cylinders and an unarmored section having a cylinder with a frangible piston and a frangible upper gland nut.

Abstract: A magnet type rodless cylinder provided with a slide magnetically coupled with a piston arranged in a cylinder tube and a slide able to move outside of the cylinder tube. The slide has a connection mount detachably attached to it. When attaching the connection mount, the position where the connection mount and an end cap strike/contact becomes the striking/contacting position of the piston. When using a rodless cylinder without a connection mount, the distance between the slide and an end cap when the piston is positioned at the striking/contacting position becomes longer than the striking/contacting distance due to the removal of the connection mount. Therefore, external dampers able to strike/contact the slide are detachably attached to the end caps at the slide sides. Due to this, regardless of the use or nonuse of a connection mount, the piston and slide can always stop at the striking/contacting position.

Abstract: A magnet type rodless cylinder comprised of cylinder tube of a double tube structure provided with an outside tube of an elliptical flattened outside circumferential shape and two inside tubes inserted into the outside tube. When pressurized air is supplied alternately to the inside tubes from a port provided at an end cap, two pistons move reciprocatingly inside the inside tubes. Due to this reciprocating motion, this reciprocating motion causes reciprocating motion of a slide magnetically coupled with the two pistons at the outside of the outside tube. The inside pressure caused by the pressurized air acts exclusively on the inside tubes and does not directly act on the outside tube of the flattened outside circumferential shape, so the thickness of the outside tube can be reduced and, even if the cylinder tube is made a double tube structure, the total thickness will not become greater than in the past.
