摘要: Systems and methods may be provided to digitally control both position and crossover pressure in a double-acting pneumatic actuator, in view of constraints (e.g., a deadband range comprising a set point) set on the crossover pressure. Control may be achieved, via a control algorithm (e.g., a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) control algorithm) acting upon inputs of actuator position feedback and crossover pressure feedback (e.g., as indicated by pressure feedback of each respective pneumatic chamber). Further, the embodiments described herein may reduce the necessary frequency of control actions for adjusting crossover pressure, thus reducing wear on process components, and allowing for finer control of actuator position.

摘要: A device includes an outer cylinder having a cylinder inner wall and a cylinder outer wall and at least one magnet disposed on or between the cylinder inner wall and the cylinder outer wall and a piston having a piston inner wall and a piston outer wall and at least one magnet disposed on or between the piston outer wall and the piston inner wall. In one embodiment, the piston is rotatable within the cylinder and slidably movable along an axis respective to the cylinder. The piston is also disposed within the cylinder such that the at least one magnet disposed on or between the cylinder inner wall and the cylinder outer wall is aligned with the at least one magnet disposed on or between the piston outer wall and the piston inner wall, substantially preventing the piston from rotating relative to the cylinder.

摘要: A hydraulic pressure intensifier (1) is described comprising a housing (2) having a low pressure chamber (3) and a high pressure chamber (4), force transmitting means (5) between the low pressure chamber (3) and the high pressure chamber (4), and a switching valve (8) connecting the low pressure chamber (3) to a first pressure or to a second pressure different from the first pressure. It is intended to have a large volume on the high pressure side of the pressure intensifier. To this end the switching valve (8) is controlled by a pilot valve 18.

摘要: A fluid-driven actuator system includes a fluid-driven actuator and at least one proportional control valve and at least one pump connected to the fluid-driven actuator to provide fluid to operate the fluid-driven actuator. The at least one pump includes at least one fluid driver having a prime mover and a fluid displacement assembly to be driven by the prime mover such that fluid is transferred from the pump inlet to the pump outlet. The fluid-driven actuator system also includes a controller that establishes at least one of a speed and a torque of the at least one prime mover to adjust at least one of a flow in the fluid-driven system to a flow set point and a pressure in the fluid-driven actuator system to a pressure set point and concurrently establishes an opening of the at least one proportional control valve to adjust at least one of the flow to the flow set point and the pressure to the pressure set point.

摘要: Apparatus configuration in which: a piston (10) is inserted into a housing (1) ascendably and descendably; and pressurized oil supplied to and discharged from a driving chamber (11) arranged above the piston (10). An output rod (15) inserted into an upper wall (2) of the housing (1) protrudes upward from the piston (10). A descent-detecting first detection valve (31) and an ascent-detecting second detection valve (32) arranged outside the periphery of the output rod (15) and in the upper wall (2), circumferentially spaced apart at a predetermined interval. Each first detection valve (31) and second detection valve (32) has an operated portion (49) (79) which faces the piston (10) from above. The apparatus is configured so that pressurized air for detection is supplied through a first supply passage (B1) and a second supply passage (B2) inlets (31a) (32a) of the first detection valve (31) and the second detection valve (32), respectively.
