A hydraulic actuator to which a limit-adjustable mechanical lock device is applied, comprising: a housing having a first hole; side covers coupled at both sides of the housing, and having holder insertion holes formed to be opened toward the first hole side of the housing, and plugs; a first holder of which one side of the outer peripheral surface is inserted into the holder insertion hole at the plug side of the side cover by screw coupling; a second holder fitted and coupled to the inner peripheral surface of the side cover and having one end thereof screw-coupled to the second hole of the first holder; a locking means into which a rod is inserted so as to be movable in an axial direction at a predetermined distance across the second hole of the first holder and the third hole of the second holder.

A hydraulic mechanism is mounted on a forklift. The hydraulic mechanism has a control valve and a pressure compensation circuit for compensating pressure within the hydraulic mechanism. The pressure compensation circuit has a relief pressure valve and an unloading valve for releasing pressure within the pressure compensation circuit to a discharge oil passage. Upon instructed to perform cargo handling operation, the unloading valve is switched to an open state, and the relief pressure valve is thereby actuated, so that rapid increase of pressure within the circuit is avoided. Further, the unloading valve is switched to an open state, and the pressure within the hydraulic mechanism is thereby released to the discharge oil passage, so that the cargo handling operation by the tilt cylinder and the lift cylinder is restricted.

A pyrotechnic drive device includes a housing (3) provided with a combustion chamber (5) having pyrotechnic material (15) as well as an activation device (13). The combustion chamber is delimited at least in an initial state on all sides by combustion chamber walls (3, 7, 13, 17, 33, 35) formed in at least one partial region by respective pressure-receiving surface or respective pressure-receiving element (17, 35). Each pressure-receiving impact of a pressure-receiving element (17, 35) is impacted after the activation of the pyrotechnic material (15) in such a way by the gas pressure generated in this manner that the pressure-receiving element (17, 35) is moved and/or deformed (17, 35) and/or a mechanical impulse is thus transmitted via the pressure-receiving element (17, 35) to an element to be driven (19) so that a connected substance (25) is transmitted. The residual volume of the combustion chamber (5), in which no pyrotechnic material (15) is provided in the initial state, is filled with a liquid, a gel-like or pasty filling material (21), and/or a soft, rubber-like material.

The present invention is aimed at an adjustment system, in particular for adjusting the distance apart of at least two guide mechanisms for the transport of, for instance, preforms for plastics containers, wherein the at least two guide mechanisms are respectively connected to a setting unit, and wherein the setting unit comprises in each case at least one piston-like element, which is pneumatically movable to and fro between a first stop and a second stop within the setting unit.

A fluid actuated linear drive includes a drive housing and a drive member which is movable between two stroke end positions. The drive member has a drive unit with a drive piston which divides off two drive chambers from one another, the drive chambers via two housing channels being connected to axial housing coupling openings which are arranged on a housing rear side. A multi-function module is built onto the housing rear side in a position of use and includes components of an external end position setting device for the drive member and is furthermore provided with module block channel systems which communicate with the housing channels and can be used for the feed and discharge of a drive fluid when the multifunction module is built onto the drive housing in the position of use.
