    Abstract: A drop-in signal accumulator piston assembly replaces an original equipment (OE) signal accumulator piston in a vehicle transmission hydraulic circuit. The OE signal accumulator piston is positioned in a bore in a valve body that has an open end and a fluid port. The drop-in signal accumulator piston assembly includes a cylindrical sleeve having open first and second ends and a piston positioned in the sleeve. A spring is positioned in part in the piston and in part extending beyond and end of the piston. A plug is positioned in the bore adjacent the sleeve. The sleeve is positioned in the valve body bore, with the piston, and the spring, and the plug is positioned in the valve body bore to enclose the sleeve, the piston and the spring in the valve body bore. A method for replacing an original equipment (OE) signal accumulator piston in a transmission hydraulic circuit is disclosed.

    Abstract: A hydraulic hose end expansion chamber preferably includes a tube, a first end plate, a second end plate, a threaded nipple, an o-ring and a drain screw. The threaded nipple is attached to the first end plate. The threaded nipple is threadably engaged with a threaded hole in a female hydraulic quick disconnect coupler. The first end plate is attached to a first end of the tube. A threaded hole is formed through the second end plate to threadably receive the drain screw. The o-ring is pushed on to the threaded shaft. The second end plate is attached to a second end of the tube. An L-shaped handle is preferably attached to the second end of the tube. A second embodiment of the hydraulic hose end expansion chamber includes a compression spring with a piston. A third embodiment of the hydraulic hose end expansion chamber includes a nitrogen filled bladder.

    Abstract: A hydraulic control unit that delivers hydraulic fluid to a limited slip differential includes a hydraulic control unit housing, a sump and a motor. The hydraulic control unit housing has an accumulator housing portion that houses a biasing assembly and a piston. The sump is defined in the hydraulic control unit housing and at least partially occupies a common space with the accumulator housing portion. The motor is configured to pump fluid into an accumulator chamber of the accumulator housing portion. The fluid pumped into the accumulator housing portion at least partially collapses the biasing assembly and introduces a pre-charge into the hydraulic control unit. The biasing assembly is configured to expand and urge the piston in a first direction resulting in fluid being communicated from the hydraulic control unit and into the limited slip differential.

    Abstract: The present invention is a distributed piston elastomeric accumulator which stores energy when its elastomeric member stretches from its original length in response to the flow of a pressurized fluid. The stored energy is returned when the fluid flow is reversed and the accumulator discharges the fluid as its elastomeric member returns to its original length and moves the piston to its initial position. At least one part of the novelty of the invention is that the accumulator is not subject to radial strain gradients and the accumulator allows for precise pressure and linear position measurements. Accordingly, the invention allows for optimization of the energy strain storage capacity of a given elastomer.

    Abstract: A device for the pulsed release of an amount (3) of fluid that is stored in a storage housing (2) includes a piston (5) biased by a first spring (4) and movable within the storage housing (2) to dispense the fluid by the spring bias, when triggered by an actuator (6) to release a lock holding the piston in place (7). The lock (7) has individual catches (8) keeping the piston (5) in its pretensioned position and, when actuated by the actuator (6), releases the piston (5).
