The invention comprises a system containing a multipurpose hydraulic unit that can be used in machines and equipment, driven by low-pressure compressed air or other gases, comprising two hydraulic pumps that work together with a hydraulic pressure accumulator, where the main function of the hydraulic pumps is to pump oil to ensure that the hydraulic pressure accumulator (28) is always full, in which the pumping of oil begins with the supply of compressed air, which passes through the pneumatic directional valve (11) and is conveyed to the lower pneumatic chamber (22) or to the upper pneumatic chamber (4) to move the pneumatic cylinder and to push the hydraulic liners of the pumps, which pumps are assembled in parallel with the shaft of the pneumatic cylinder, each on one side, and as such, when the hydraulic chambers move, they exert a force on this volume of oil and force this stored oil out through the check valves to the hydraulic pressure accumulator, where it is kept under pressure and ready for use, and while this volume of oil is being pumped out of the hydraulic chamber, another volume of oil is being drawn into the hydraulic chamber opposite this hydraulic chamber, also to be pumped when the reverse movement of the pneumatic cylinder occurs, at which point said pneumatic cylinder begins pumping this new volume of oil, and so on until the pressure accumulator is full and pumping is stopped as a result of pressure equilibrium being reached, nonetheless maintaining the system under pressure, said system being restarted whenever oil is consumed as a result of the movement of any hydraulic actuator of the machine that is using this invention.

A dual pneumo-hydraulic pump unit is provided. The dual pneumo-hydraulic pump unit includes a central pneumatic cylinder that works in the center of two hydraulic piston pumps. The two hydraulic piston pumps are mounted parallel to the plunger of the central pneumatic cylinder, positioned one on each side. Compressed air or other pressurized gases are used to move the central pneumatic cylinder, as a source of motor energy to pump oil under pressure to a hydraulic pressure accumulator for later activation of hydraulic actuators.

A differential pressure motor comprising two working pistons and a rod that move in a hollow space. Walls defining the hollow space have five openings. A valve piston moves between and against the working pistons and can be driven by the working pistons. The valve piston with the five openings forms a valve with which an alternate impact of a first pressure and a second pressure on the working pistons is controllable when the pressures are applied to three of the five openings such that the working pistons periodically move which drives a periodic movement of the valve piston. Also disclosed are a surgical drive system with, a medical lavage system for the debridement of soft tissue and/or bone tissue having, and a medical device for brushing, rasping or sawing soft tissue and/or bone tissue with such a differential pressure motor, and a method for operating a differential pressure motor.

The invention relates to the special configuration of a compression device of a refrigeration system and to its actuation method. The device consists of a pair of dual-action cylinders (8-9) connected together by means of the movable rod (11) thereof, such that the first cylinder (8) acts as an element for compressing coolant fluid, for which purpose the rod is moved through the second cylinder (9), being fed by a pressurised fluid which, by means of a series of branches and valves controlled using limit switches of the rod (11), allow the flow of coolant fluid in the first cylinder and the flow of pressurised fluid of the second cylinder at the outlet of both devices to be constant. Thus, a completely autonomous device that does not need electricity or any type of fuel is obtained.

A drive system for a pump includes a housing defining an internal pressure chamber, a working fluid disposed within and charging the internal pressure chamber, and a reciprocating member disposed within the internal pressure chamber. A fluid displacement component has first and second surfaces. The first surface is configured to contact the working fluid and the second surface is configured to contact the process fluid. The area of the first surface is greater than the area of the second surface. A pull extends between and connects the reciprocating member and the fluid displacement component. The pull mechanically transfers a pulling force from the reciprocating member to the fluid displacement component.
