A pump arrangement, in particular in a coating installation for the coating of components, such as a painting installation for the painting of motor vehicle body components, is provided. The pump arrangement includes a plurality of adjustable pumps for delivering a coating agent, e.g. for delivering a sealing agent for the sealing of weld seams on a motor vehicle body component. The pumps are connected in parallel such that the pumps extract the coating agent for delivery from a common inlet line and deliver said coating agent into a common outlet line. The arrangement further includes a control device for the open-loop or closed-loop control of one fluid variable at the outlet of the individual pumps, respectively, wherein the control device actuates the individual pumps individually, and/or a monitoring unit, which switches the pumps on and off non-simultaneously.

The present invention relates to A device for supplying hydraulic power, the device comprising two hydraulic circuits jointly feeding multi-cylinder hydraulic power transmission means in which each cylinder is connected to a single one of the hydraulic circuits independently of the others. Each hydraulic circuit includes a hydraulic pressure and flow rate generator and a pressure control module controlling said hydraulic pressure and flow rate generator so as to regulate the pressure of said fluid flowing in said hydraulic circuit as a function of said pressure of said fluid flowing in each hydraulic circuit and possibly as a function of one or more parameters external to said device.

A self-aligning mud pump apparatus is provided. In one embodiment, the mud pump includes a rotatable crankshaft, a crosshead, a crosshead guide, and a hub disposed in a housing. The hub is disposed on the crankshaft and is operable to convert rotating motion of the crankshaft to reciprocating motion of the crosshead within the crosshead guide. The hub is coupled to the crosshead via a connecting rod, which is connected the crosshead such that the connecting rod has five degrees of freedom with respect to the crosshead guide. The mud pump may also or instead include a piston coupled to the crosshead with five degrees of freedom between the piston and the crosshead. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

A fluid delivery apparatus includes controller hardware, a diaphragm pump, a positive displacement pump, and a fluid conduit extending between the diaphragm pump and the positive displacement pump. During operation, and delivering fluid to a downstream recipient, the controller hardware draws fluid into a chamber of the diaphragm pump from a fluid source container. The controller hardware applies pressure to the chamber of the diaphragm pump to output the fluid in the chamber of the diaphragm pump downstream through the fluid conduit to the positive displacement pump. During application of the pressure to the chamber and outputting the fluid in the chamber of the diaphragm pump downstream, the controller hardware activates the positive displacement pump to pump the fluid from the positive displacement pump to the downstream recipient.

A hydraulic apparatus comprises first and second manifolds each of which is connected to a plurality of actuators via corresponding actuator valves connected in parallel and operated responsive to inputs to regulate the flow of fluid to the actuators. A plurality of working chambers are connectable to either the first or second manifold and have a net flow which is controlled responsive to a negative feedback signal. The negative feedback signal is determined in response to a calculated pressure or flow rate in virtual fluid flow paths extending from the first and second manifolds.

A clamp comprising a first contact surface perpendicular to a central axis of the clamp and a second contact surface tapered relative to a central axis of the clamp, whereby the clamp allows for concentric or non-concentric mating between a first component and a second component such that, when rigidly held together by the clamp such that the first contact surface of the clamp contacts a portion of the first component and the second contact surface of the clamp contacts a portion of the second component, a central axis of the first component is parallel to or coincident with a central axis of the second component.

A turbine fracturing system and a controlling method thereof, a controlling apparatus and a storage medium are provided. The turbine fracturing system includes: N turbine fracturing apparatuses, wherein each of the N turbine fracturing apparatuses comprises a turbine engine, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 2; a fuel gas supply apparatus connected to the N turbine engines, wherein the fuel gas supply apparatus is configured to supply fuel gas and distribute the fuel gas to the N turbine engines as gaseous fuel; and a fuel liquid supply apparatus connected to at least one of the N turbine engines and configured to supply liquid fuel to at least one of the N turbine engines in a case that at least one of a flow rate and a pressure of the fuel gas decreases.

A high-power turbine fracturing system may include a lubrication system, which may include a first lubrication unit configured to lubricate a plunger pump.
