A radial piston machine includes a housing, rotor, first braking member, and brake ring with a second braking member. The rotor is mounted in the housing to be rotatable relative to an axis of rotation, and has an end face facing in a direction of the axis of rotation. The first braking member is positioned on the end face. The housing has a body defining a ring-shaped extension relative to the axis of rotation. The brake ring is positioned to surround the extension and is configured to be movable in the direction of the axis of rotation so as to bring the second braking member into braking engagement with the first braking member. The brake ring is further configured to positively engage with an inner radial side of the extension to limit a twisting between the housing and brake ring.

An injector generator for use in geomechanical pumped storage systems includes a power end and a fluid end. The fluid end has one or more fluid chambers each having a fluid inlet and outlet that are controlled by rotary valves. The fluid end can function as a pump or as a motor driven by fluid pressure from the geomechanical storage formation.

A hydrostatic radial piston unit of the cam-lobe type of construction having a non-rotary, stationary shaft defining a rotational axis of the hydrostatic radial piston unit. A non-rotary, stationary casing houses the shaft in a torque proof connection. A rotary casing is provided which is rotary around the rotational axis. A pair of roller bearings supports the rotary casing in a rotatable manner against the stationary casing, wherein the pair of roller bearings is arranged in an axial overlapping area in which the stationary casing and the rotary casing overlap.

A hydrostatic radial piston unit of the cam-lobe type of construction including a non-rotary, stationary casing. The stationary casing includes a through hole defining a rotational axis of the hydrostatic radial piston unit. A rotary casing is mounted rotary to the non-rotary, stationary casing in an axial overlapping area. A park brake mechanism includes at least two brake discs arranged adjoined in the overlapping area. An end cover closes the non-rotary casing on a rear end side of the hydrostatic radial piston unit facing away from the rotary casing. The end cover pre-tensions a disc spring against a disc-shaped brake piston both located in the rear end portion of the stationary casing to generate an axially oriented spring force. The force can be forwarded by the brake piston to at least one brake pin arranged in an axially oriented bore in the stationary casing, in order to press the brake discs against each other when the brake piston on the face opposite to the disc spring is not forced to move towards the end cover.

A low-energy and high pressure, hydraulic, pneumatic engine contains: a casing device, two main-cylinder devices, a holder device, two main-crankshaft devices, two recycle-valve devices, two swing-arm devices, two movable-valve devices, two recycle-cylinder devices, two recycle-crankshaft devices, and two umbrella-shaped gear devices. The engine operates without using gasoline or diesel, thus avoiding discharge of harmful substance or gas and pollution. The high pressure gas forces the hydraulic oil without using gasoline or diesel so as to start the engine, and the hydraulic oil recycles and reuses repeatedly, thus obtaining environmental protection. And the high pressure gas forces the hydraulic oil so as to circulate the hydraulic oil, and the communication of the low-energy and high pressure and the low pressure matches with the circulation space of the fluid operation to produce the torque, hence four strokes cycle of intake, compression, combustion and exhaust are not required.

A hydraulic machine (1) comprising first and second brake elements (92, 93), a spring washer (65) tending to urge the first and second brake elements (92, 93) in a braking direction, and a brake release piston (61) configured to act on the spring washer (65) in a direction opposing the braking direction, the hydraulic machine being characterized in that the brake release piston (61) comprises a primary brake release piston (61a) associated with a primary brake release chamber (62a), and a secondary brake release piston (61b) associated with a secondary brake release chamber (62b), said primary and secondary chambers (62a, 62b) extending radially around the shaft (2) in such a manner that projections of the primary brake release chamber (62a) and of the secondary brake release chamber (62b) onto a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis (X-X) defined by the axis of rotation of the hydraulic machine (1) are superposed, at least in part.

A radial piston machine includes a rotor within a housing that is rotatable about an axis, a shaft coupled to the rotor, a distributor which surrounds the shaft and cannot rotate with the rotor and that contacts the rotor in an axial direction, a plurality of brake discs including first brake discs and second brake discs arranged side-by-side along the axis, wherein the first brake discs are coupled to the housing for torque transmission, and the second brake discs are coupled to the shaft for torque transmission, and an actuator configured to releasably exert a brake force in the axial direction on the brake discs. The distributor is located axially between the rotor and the actuator, and the brake discs are located axially between the distributor and the actuator. When the brake force is exerted the brake force is supported by the distributor in the axial direction.
