Abstract:
A fluid pressure cylinder includes a cylinder tube, a piston rod, and a displacement sensor. A bottom portion of the cylinder tube has: a pin hole formed in a direction orthogonal to a center axis; and a through hole penetrating the bottom portion through the pin hole. The displacement sensor has: a sensor body disposed on inner side of the pin hole in the through hole; a sensor rod provided so as to extend from the sensor body; and an annular magnet relatively movable with respect to the sensor rod. The through hole has: a reduced-diameter portion; and a female screw portion that has a female screw formed on an inner circumference of the female screw portion. The sensor body is fixed by being pressed by a plug that is screwed into the female screw portion and by being engaged with the reduced-diameter portion.

A mono-tube type hydraulic shock absorber includes a cylinder, a free piston that partitions the inside of the cylinder into a liquid chamber in which a hydraulic fluid is filled and a gas chamber in which a gas is filled, a piston slidably inserted into the cylinder, the piston partitioning the liquid chamber into two working chambers, a sealing ring provided on an outer periphery of the free piston, the sealing ring being configured to seal between the cylinder and the free piston, and a lubricating oil enclosed within the gas chamber to lubricate between the sealing ring and the cylinder.
Abstract:
A control system for a hybrid construction machine includes: a turning motor provided in a turning circuit; a pressure detector for detecting a turning pressure of the turning motor; a variable displacement type of fluid pressure motor for regeneration which is rotated by means of pressurized fluid guided from the turning motor; a motor generator adapted to be rotated integrally with the fluid pressure motor; and a controller adapted to predict a turning regeneration flow from the turning motor on the basis of the turning pressure detected by pressure detector to control a tilt angle of the fluid pressure motor on the basis of the predicted turning regeneration flow.
Abstract:
A magnetic viscous fluid damper includes: a cylinder; a piston that is slidably interposed within the cylinder; two fluid chambers that are partitioned by the piston; a hollow rod that is coupled to the piston; an electromagnetic coil that is formed with a magnet wire wound around the piston; two lead wires that extend from both ends of the magnet wire; and a coil assembly in which the electromagnetic coil and the two lead wires are embedded in a mold resin. The piston includes a hollow first core coupled to the rod and a second core that sandwiches the coil assembly with the first core. The two lead wires are passed through the inside of the first core and are electrically continuous with an electric wire passed through the inside of the rod.
Abstract:
A fluid pressure cylinder includes: a piston rod; a cushioning chamber that decreases in capacity in accordance with extension of the fluid pressure cylinder; a communication passage that allows the cushioning chamber and an in-rod chamber to communicate with each other; a throttle passage that exerts a cushioning function by applying resistance to a flow of a working fluid from the cushioning chamber to the in-rod chamber; a check valve that is provided in a piston, allows the in-rod chamber and a driving chamber to communicate with each other, and has a checking function for permitting only a flow of the working fluid from the in-rod chamber to the driving chamber; and a pilot passage that is formed in the piston and disables the checking function by guiding a pressure in the cushioning chamber to the check valve as a pilot pressure.
Abstract:
A suspension device interposed between a vehicle body and a wheel includes a shock absorber, a suspension spring, a tube member accommodating the shock absorber and the suspension spring, a sealing member closing a one-side opening of the tube member and holding a piston rod of the shock absorber, a damping force adjustment portion, which includes a coil generating a magnetic field in a passage and a wiring penetrating the piston rod and the sealing member and conducting the coil, electrically adjusting resistance caused when an operating fluid, which is a magnetic viscous fluid whose viscosity changes by a magnetic field's action, passes through the passage allowing two chambers defined and formed by a piston in a cylinder to communicate with each other in the shock absorber, and a reaction force adjustment portion, which is mounted on the sealing member, for adjusting a reaction force of the suspension spring.
Abstract:
A solenoid relief valve system includes: a solenoid relief valve; and a control unit; wherein the control unit has a dither generating unit configured to generate the dither on a plunger by applying a first dither signal or a second dither signal having different amplitude or frequency from the first dither signal to current to be supplied to a coil, and wherein the dither generating unit is configured to apply the first dither signal to the current to be supplied to the coil during adjustment of a setting pressure, by which the current to be supplied to the coil is caused to be changed, and configured to apply the second dither signal to the current to be supplied to the coil in a state in which the adjustment of the setting pressure is not performed.
Abstract:
A steering device includes a rack shaft that turns wheels, a bush slidably support the rack shaft, tie-rods joined to the rack shaft, boots that cover a joining portion that joins the rack shaft and the tie-rod. A protrusion part is formed on either one of the bush and a rack housing so as to protrude toward the other. A restriction groove into which the protrusion part is inserted is formed on the other. A space inside the first boot and a space inside the second boot constantly communicate with each other via the restriction groove.
Abstract:
A coupling structure for coupling a first member and a second member includes a rod-shaped part configured to be received across a first hole formed in the first member and a second hole formed in the second member. The rod-shaped part has a first insertion portion configured to be inserted into the first hole of the first member, and a second insertion portion configured to be inserted into the second hole of the second member. The coupling structure further includes a fixing configuration, the fixing configuration being configured to fix the first insertion portion and the first member by applying an external force to the first insertion portion, and the fixing configuration being configured to fix the second insertion portion and the second member by applying an external force to the second insertion portion.
Abstract:
A technique involves outputting not only the condition of hydraulic oil but also information on failure prediction of equipment by processing in real time. Such a technique utilizes an oil condition sensor attached to the equipment, a parameter calculator that calculates the values of a plurality of parameters indicating the state of the hydraulic oil based on the sensor output of the oil condition sensor and correlation information between the sensor output and the values of a plurality of parameters indicating the state of the hydraulic oil, and failure prediction determiner that predicts equipment failures based on parameter values and identifies and outputs parameters that are inferred as the cause of the failure prediction, and outputs not only the condition of hydraulic oil but also information on failure prediction of the equipment by processing in real time.
