Oscillation cylinder arrangement
The oscillation cylinder arrangement (100) comprises a working cylinder (10A) and a piston with a rod (27A), arranged to move therein, and a control valve structure (20) for the working cylinder (10A). The control valve structure (20) incorporates a main valve (24) for transmitting a pressure medium to a first sub-chamber or a second sub-chamber of the working cylinder (10A) for a linear movement (A, B) of the piston, as well as impulse valves (22, 23), and lever arms (25, 26) for controlling them, in order to set the operational state of the main valve (24). Control members (27B) fixed to the piston rod (27A) moving in the working cylinder (10A), the control members (27B) being arranged to contact the lever arms (25, 26) of the impulse valves in order to define the extreme positions of the movement of the piston rod (27A).

Hydraulic system and motor vehicle transmission
A hydraulic system is described, in particular for a motor vehicle transmission, with an actuator, a valve, a pressure supply line and a tank line. The actuator may have a first pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber, which can have pressure applied for actuation of the actuator, wherein the pressure chambers, the pressure supply line and the tank line are each connected to a port (A, B, P, T) of the valve. The valve may have several different switching positions, in which the pressure chambers with the pressure supply line or the tank line are selectively connected to each other or shut off from each other.

Pitch system for a wind turbine
A drive assembly for adjusting the pitch of a wind turbine blade comprises a stator having a cylindrical body and a drive member positioned at least partially within the cylindrical body and movable along an axis thereof. A mounting pin extends through an aperture in a wall of the cylindrical body for pivotally mounting the stator to a wind turbine structure.
Control surface actuator assemblies, aircraft hydraulic systems including the same, and associated aircraft and methods
Control surface actuator assemblies, aircraft hydraulic systems including the same, and associated aircraft and methods. A control surface actuator assembly includes a flight control surface operatively coupled to a support structure, a torque-generating hydraulic actuator configured to apply a torque to pivot the flight control surface, and a variable horn radius (VHR) hydraulic actuator configured to vary an actuator moment arm length for pivoting the flight control surface. In some examples, an aircraft hydraulic system includes such control surface actuator assemblies, and an aircraft includes such aircraft hydraulic systems. In some examples, a method of operating one or more flight control surfaces of an aircraft includes controlling a selected flight control surface by adjusting, with a VHR hydraulic actuator, an actuator moment arm length corresponding to the selected flight control surface and pivoting, with a torque-generating hydraulic actuator, the selected flight control surface.
HYDRAULIC ACTUATOR
A hydraulic actuator is disclosed that comprises a first, fixed portion and a second portion movable relative to the first portion. The second portion comprises a hydraulic actuating device for actuating a component, and the actuator further comprises an intermediate member configured to interconnect the first portion with the second portion and permit movement of the second portion relative to the first portion. The intermediate member is configured to convey hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic actuating device of the second portion through a body of the intermediate member.
Dual Hydraulic Stabilizer Control Apparatus
A vehicle stabilization system is disclosed which include two double-acting hydraulic cylinders of the same size, each attached to a vehicle, chassis and the wheel hub assembly on an axle, each cylinder having a top chamber and a bottom chamber, a hydraulic system which includes two compression chambers disposed between the two double acting cylinders, and hydraulic lines coupling the top chamber of one double-acting hydraulic cylinder to the bottom chamber of the other double-acting hydraulic cylinder, and vice versa, and to the two compression chambers disposed therebetween, movement of a first axel of a first chassis with respect to a second axel of the first chassis causes an increase in pressure in one of the two compression chambers and a decrease in pressure in the other of the two compression chambers, thereby providing a hydraulic coupling between the two axels.
