  • Introduction to Hydraulic Actuators
    Introduction to hydraulic actuators By - Kamalesh 16-11-2012 History and definition Inventor Joseph Bramah of England invented Hydraulic press and was issued a patent on this press in 1795. Pressurized hydraulic fluid used to transfer energy from flow and pressure to drive hydraulic machinery. 01 Principle of hydraulic system Pascal's law is the basis of hydraulic drive systems. 02 Basic hydraulic system Hydraulic jack 03 Hydraulic actuators 1. Hydraulic motors 2. Hydraulic cylinders 04 Hydraulic motors A hydraulic motor is a mechanical actuator that converts hydraulic pressure and flow into torque and angular displacement (rotation). 05 Hydraulic cylinders A Hydraulic cylinder (also called a linear hydraulic motor) is a mechanical actuator that is used to give a unidirectional force through a unidirectional stroke. Single acting vs. double acting 1. Single acting cylinders are economical and the simplest design. Hydraulic fluid enters through a port at one end of the cylinder, which extend the rod by means of area difference. An external force returns or gravity returns the piston rod. 2. Double acting cylinders have a port at each end, supplied with hydraulic fluid for both the retraction and extension. 06 Components of a hydraulic cylinder 1. Cylinder barrel 2. Cylinder base or cap 3. Cylinder head 4. Piston 5. Piston rod 6. Seal gland 7.

  • Lecture 14 HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS [CONTINUED]
    Lecture 14 HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS [CONTINUED] 1. 7 First-, Second- and Third-Class Lever Systems Many mechanisms use hydraulic cylinders to transmit motion and power. Among these, lever mechanisms such as toggles, the rotary devices and the push--pull devices use a hydraulic cylinder. In this section, the mechanics of cylinder loading used in first-class, second-class and third-class lever systems is being discussed. 1. 7.1 First-Class Lever System Fixed Cylinder hinge pin rod pin Fixed hinge pin Cylinder Figure 1. 21 First-class lever system In this lever system, the fixed-hinge point is located in between the cylinder and the loading point. The schematic arrangement of a first-class lever system with a hydraulic cylinder is shown in Fig.1. 21. In this system, the downward load acts at the lever end. The cylinder has to apply a downward force to lift the load. The cylinder has a clevis mounting arrangement; it pivots about its eye-end center through an angle. However, the effect of this angle (around 10° to 15°) is negligible on the force and hence cannot be considered. Here, Fload = load to be operated, Fcyl = load to be exerted by a hydraulic cylinder, L1 = distance from the rod end to the pivot point, L2 = distance from the pivot point to the loading point and θ = inclination of the lever measured with respect to the horizontal line at the hinge. When the load is being lifted, the cylinder force rotates the lever in an anticlockwise direction about the pivot point. Due to this, a moment acts in the anticlockwise direction.

  • Lecture 12 HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS
    Lecture 12 HYDRAULIC ACTUATORS Learning Objectives Upon completion of this chapter, the student should be able to: Explain the classification of hydraulic actuators. Explain various types of hydraulic cylinders. Describe the construction and working of double-acting cylinders. Derive an expression for force, velocity and power for hydraulic cylinders. Analyze various lever systems using hydraulic cylinders. Explain the importance of cylinder cushioning. Explain various types of cylinder mountings used in fluid power. Evaluate the performance of hydraulic systems using cylinders. 1.1 Introduction Hydraulic systems are used to control and transmit power. A pump driven by a prime mover such as an electric motor creates a flow of fluid, in which the pressure, direction and rate of flow are controlled by valves. An actuator is used to convert the energy of fluid back into the mechanical power. The amount of output power developed depends upon the flow rate, the pressure drop across the actuator and its overall efficiency. Thus, hydraulic actuators are devices used to convert pressure energy of the fluid into mechanical energy. Depending on the type of actuation, hydraulic actuators are classified as follows: 1. Linear actuator: For linear actuation (hydraulic cylinders). 2. Rotary actuator: For rotary actuation (hydraulic motor). 3. Semi-rotary actuator: For limited angle of actuation (semi-rotary actuator). Hydraulic linear actuators, as their name implies, provide motion in a straight line. The total movement is a finite amount determined by the construction of the unit. They are usually referred to as cylinders, rams and jacks. All these items are synonymous in general use, although ram is sometimes intended to mean a single-acting cylinder and jack often refers to a cylinder used for lifting.

  • Dynamic Simulation of the Harvester Boom Cylinder
    machines Article Dynamic Simulation of the Harvester Boom Cylinder Rongfeng Shen *, Xiaozhen Zhang and Chengjun Zhou School of Transportation and Civil Engineering, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou 350002, China; [email protected] (X.Z.); [email protected] (C.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +158-0607-7197 Academic Editor: Robert Parkin Received: 25 December 2016; Accepted: 17 March 2017; Published: 17 April 2017 Abstract: Based on the complete dynamic calculation method, the layout, force, and strength of harvester boom cylinders were designed and calculated. Closed simulations for the determination of the dynamic responses of the harvester boom during luffing motion considering the cylinder drive system and luffing angle position control have been realized. Using the ADAMS mechanical system dynamics analysis software, six different arm poses were selected and simulated based on the cylinder as the analysis object. A flexible model of the harvester boom luffing motion has been established. The movement of the oil cylinder under different conditions were analyzed, and the main operation dimensions of the harvester boom and the force condition of the oil cylinder were obtained. The calculation results show that the dynamic responses of the boom are more sensitive to the luffing acceleration, in comparison with the luffing velocity. It is seen that this method is very effective and convenient for boom luffing simulation. It is also reasonable to see that the extension of the distance of the bottom of the boom is shortened by adjusting the initial state of the boom in the working process, which can also effectively reduce the workload of the boom—thus improving the mechanical efficiency.

    Unit 2. ACTUATORS and Power Unit Introduction: An Actuator is a component of machines that is responsible for moving or controlling a mechanism or system. The supplied main energy source may be electric current, hydraulic fluid pressure, or pneumatic pressure. When the control signal is received, the actuator responds by converting the energy into mechanical motion. It is a device which converts fluid power into rotary power or converts fluid pressure into torque or linear power. Introduction- . They extract energy from a fluid, and convert it to mechanical energy to perform useful work.
