A hydraulic transformer clutch enables controlled power transfer from an outer race to an output shaft. The outer race is driven by a rolling element and generates spin against its own axis. The rolling element is in contact with a rotating lever, which can rotate against a pin. A boss keeps the rolling element in contact with the rotating lever. The rotating lever is actuated by a piston via a contact surface. During the actuation process, the rotating lever wedges the rolling element, creating a rigid connection between the outer race and the output shaft. This connection, and resulting engagement of the outer race and the output shaft, is maintained as long as the piston is actuated.

A docking station may be used to provide a physical foundation and an operational base for a remote wireless cab. The docking station preferably includes a base member, a hydraulic pump and an electrical generator. The hydraulic pump is not needed for a remote wireless electric cab. The base member includes a support base and at least two upright mounting members. The at least two upright mounting members extend upward from the support base. The hydraulic pump and the electrical generator are preferably attached to a top surface of the support base. A remote wireless cab is attached to the at least two upright mounting members. The hydraulic pump is connected to the hydraulic pressure and return lines. The electrical generator is connected to the electrical bulkhead through the power cable. The remote wireless cab may be operated with the docking station.

A hydraulic device having: a plurality of main piston-cylinder arrangements, each of the respective pistons having a fixed stroke length and configured for axial reciprocation within their respective cylinder; a plurality of flow control valves for switching between a lockdown state and an unlocked state of one or more of the plurality of main piston cylinder arrangements during operation of the hydraulic device; and one or more control valves for directing the plurality of flow control valves between their respective unlock and lock positions.

A remote wireless hydraulic cab preferably includes a cab member, a hydraulic sensor block, an electrical bulkhead, a cab bridge controller and a cab transceiver. The cab member preferably includes a cab enclosure, two hydraulic joysticks, two hydraulic treadles and electrical equipment. The hydraulic sensor block includes a sensor block and a plurality of hydraulic pressure sensors. Hydraulic lines from the joysticks and treadles are connected to the sensor block. Pressure measurements from the joysticks and treadles are sent from the plurality of hydraulic pressure sensors to the cab bridge controller. The cab bridge controller sends signals for wireless transmission through a cab wireless transceiver to a frame transceiver. The electrical equipment is supplied with electrical power and transmits signals through the electrical bulkhead. Electrical power to the cab enclosure is supplied through an electrical generator and hydraulic fluid to the joysticks and treadles are supplied through a hydraulic pump.

A device for amplifying a force includes a prime mover configured to receive a first force, and a secondary mover configured to generate a second force that is greater than the first force in response to the prime mover receiving the first force. The prime mover includes an output that, in response to the first force, rotates about a first axis through a power stroke defined by an angular displacement that is less than ninety degrees. The prime mover's output includes a first end that revolves about the first axis during the power stroke. The secondary mover includes an input, an output, and a body. The input includes a second end that is coupled with the first end of the prime mover's output, and that, as the first end of the prime mover's output revolves about the first axis through the power stroke, the second end of the secondary mover's input also revolves about the first axis and moves relative to the secondary mover's body. The secondary's mover's output is configured to apply the second force to an object. The secondary mover's body is pivotally anchored at a location such that as the first end of the prime mover's output revolves about the first axis through the power stroke, the body of the secondary mover pivots about a second axis that passes through the location. The position of the device's secondary mover relative to the first end of the prime mover's output is such that, as the first end approaches the end of the power stroke, the first end of the prime mover's output accelerates, without an additional force applied to the prime mover's output.

A device for sensing a rotary or linear position of moving parts of drives, in which a moving part performs a rotary movement or a linear positioning movement with respect to a stationary part, has a switch unit comprising switches arranged next to one another in a row and is arranged on the stationary part, and having an actuating element for actuating the switches based on the relative position of the moving part, the actuating element having switch triggers corresponding to the number of switches and each being assigned to the respective switches, such that there is a respectively defined unique combination of positions of the switches for each relative position between the moving part and the stationary part, and a control module having an analysis unit for storing coding for the different switch positions in relation to the relative position of the moving part of the drive.
