A working machine includes a machine body, a first hydraulic actuator mounted on the machine body, a first control valve that controls the first hydraulic actuator, a controller that controls the first control valve, and a second hydraulic actuator that is different from the first hydraulic actuator. When the second hydraulic actuator and the first hydraulic actuator are operated in combination, the controller reduces the amount of change in the flow rate of a hydraulic fluid supplied from the first control valve to the first hydraulic actuator with respect to changes in a manipulation amount to operate the first hydraulic actuator to a value smaller than that when the first hydraulic actuator is solely operated.

A sealing ring includes a first sealing element having a first mating surface and a second sealing element having a second mating surface. A high-pressure boundary extends across at least a portion of the first sealing element and across at least a portion of the second sealing element, and a low-pressure boundary extends across at least a portion of the first sealing element and across at least a portion of the second sealing element. The first mating surface, the second mating surface, or both, includes a recess open to the low-pressure boundary and not open to the high-pressure boundary. The recess may include a groove, for example. The first mating surface is sealed against the second mating surface by a first force acting on the first sealing element and a second force acting on the second sealing element. These forces act to pressure-lock the assembly.

The invention concerns a hydrostatic drive with a closed hydraulic fluid circuit comprising a hydraulic motor and a variable displacement pump. A feed pump feeds hydraulic fluid under pressure. A control device regulates pressure to a double-sided servo control unit comprising a control piston in a double-sided control cylinder so that the control piston can open a feed line for hydraulic fluid to one side while opening a discharge line on the other. The control device comprises an actuator at the cylinder by means of which force can be exerted onto the piston. A preload element exerts force onto the piston. The pressure generated by the variable displacement pump returns via a return line such that force is exerted in the direction of the piston, if inactive, the piston is maintained by the preload element and the pressure of the variable displacement pump.

A system for supplying compressed air to a pneumatic network includes a load compressor, an air supply and a power shaft driving the load compressor. The system also includes in an air outlet of such load compressor, a connecting channel connected, on the one side, with a channel connected with the pneumatic network and, on the other side, with an air discharge conduct towards an exhaust nozzle. Air flow rate bleed valves are controlled by a processing unit via servo-loops as a function of the pressure sensors and the speed sensor.

An example valve includes: a pressure compensation spool configured to be subjected to a first fluid force of fluid received at a first port acting in a proximal direction; a pressure compensation spring disposed in a pressure compensation chamber and applying a biasing force on the pressure compensation spool in a distal direction; a turbine configured to rotate as fluid flows through the valve; and a flow area configured to throttle fluid flow from the first port to the pressure compensation chamber, wherein fluid in the pressure compensation chamber applies a second fluid force on the pressure compensation spool in the distal direction, such that the pressure compensation spool moves to a particular axial position based on force equilibrium between the first fluid force, the second fluid force, and the biasing force to throttle fluid flow from the pressure compensation chamber to a second port.
