Fluid power standards
collection can be found in "O+P Konstruktions-Jahrbuch 1993/1994" [O+P Design Manual 1993/1994] published by Vereinigte Fachverlage. The specialist fluid technology committee at the VDMA has also produced [...] technology lies with the specialist fluid technology department at the Normenausschuss Maschinenbau (Standards Committee Mechanical Engineering – NAM). They work on all DIN, ISO and DIN ISO standards. In addition
Cylinder velocity
calculated from the flow rate Q, the effective area of the cylinder A (extend speed - piston area , retract speed - annulus area ) and the number of cylinders ic. Calculate the cylinder velocity directly
Equivalent circuit
Method for making the functional - and often complex - relationships involved in the operation of hydraulic devices visible by means of schematics (circuit diagrams) in which the various processes are
Multi-stroke hydrostatic motor
displacement unit perform several strokes (between four and eight or so) per revolution. These — with one exception — are radial piston units fitted with a stroke ring designed accordingly ( Figure M 8 ).
Feedback system for continuously adjustable valves
continuously adjustable valves: Barometric feedback – the simplest form of feedback. Mechanical feedback – primarily used in servo valves. Electric feedback – primarily used in proportional valves. The type [...] type of feedback system has a very strong impact on the dynamic behaviour of the internal ( Figure R 37 ).
Ramp generator
with a delay ( Figure R 10 ), resulting in a general voltage increase. The charging speed – and therefore the gradient of the ramp – may be influenced by a changing resistance (R).
Expandable hose
Hose that is designed such that - unlike a normal hose - it expands a relatively large amount under pressure (Figure D 8) . In this way it is particularly suitable for removing pressure peaks and pressure
Leakage compensation
featuring leakage compensation ensure the pressure within individual devices does not drop — despite a leakage — by constantly compensating for any oil leaking out. This is achieved, for example, using a
Return line filter
filters – regardless of the size of the pump flow rate – must be selected according to the largest flow rate present. This occurs when refluxing a cylinder . with A K = piston surface area, c R = return
Measuring
Determining the measured value of a physical variable — the measured variable — by means of an indirect or direct comparison with a known reference variable. Measuring requires a master reference element
