The present disclosure relates to a radial piston hydraulic device distributing flow by pilot operated check valves and an operating method thereof. The radial piston hydraulic device includes a housing, a plurality of piston assemblies, a main shaft, first pilot operated check valves, second pilot operated check valves, and a valve plate. The first pilot operated check valves have a same number as the plurality of piston assemblies and are one-to-one corresponding to the plurality of piston assemblies. The second pilot operated check valves have a same number as the plurality of piston assemblies and are one-to-one corresponding to the plurality of piston assemblies. The radial piston hydraulic device can be used not only as the hydraulic motor, but also as a hydraulic pump, and can be used in a hydraulic system that need to realize power recovery functions.

A hydraulic assembly for a vehicle transmission includes a hydraulic pump for providing a system pressure within a hydraulic circuit, a pressure accumulator for temporarily supplying pressure to the hydraulic circuit, and a valve assembly for charging the pressure accumulator after a predetermined pressure threshold value of the system pressure has been reached or exceeded. The valve assembly is hydraulically connected between the pump and the pressure accumulator.

A combined valve for insertion into an elongated bore of a power unit body of a hydraulic power unit may have an elongated carrier for receiving a relief and a check valve. The valve may also have a register arranged at a first axial position of a longitudinal axis of the carrier for calibration of the relief valve. The valve may also have a check valve coupled to the carrier at a second axial position along the longitudinal axis of the carrier. The valve may also have a relief valve coupled to the carrier at a third axial position along the longitudinal axis of the carrier. A minimal distance between the first and the second axial position may be less than a minimal distance between the first and the third axial position.

An electrohydraulic system includes an output shaft, a hydraulic piston, and a preload device. The output shaft rotationally drives the valve and extends along a first axis. The hydraulic piston extends along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, is actuated by a pressure medium, and rotates the output shaft. The preload device stores energy via preloading of an elastic element, which extends along a third axis, by a hydraulic cylinder and to transmit the energy to the output shaft in the event of a fault. The hydraulic piston is guided into first and second cylinder housings, and at least one of the cylinder housings is connected to the hydraulic cylinder. A check valve is arranged between the cylinder housing and the hydraulic cylinder, and is configured to decouple the preload device from the hydraulic piston, the blocking direction going from the hydraulic cylinder to the cylinder housing.

A hydrostatic cylinder with a gas pressure accumulator, which is preferably designed as a piston accumulator, and which is arranged concentrically on the outer circumference of the cylinder is disclosed. A gas pressure is produced via a constant pressure source and is limited or is essentially constant in the gas pressure accumulator and also a constant pressure medium pressure is independent of the degree of filling of the gas pressure accumulator.

A vehicle fluid exchange machine is disclosed that allows the technician to control the flow into the vehicle or stand-alone cooling or hydraulic system either manually or automatically based on a safe working pressure for the vehicle. If the vehicle's cooling system can handle a higher pressure for example, the technician may adjust the machine's flow to a flow rate consistent with the higher pressure rating while monitoring the pressure across the system. The default setting for the air injection process is automatic, but can also be switched to manual by the technician.

A system for tethering a subsea blowout preventer (BOP) or well head is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the system comprises an interface associable with the BOP, and more than one anchors disposed about the BOP. Each anchor is configured to carry or support a tensioning system arranged in operable association with a respective tether. Each tether is arranged so as to link a respective anchor with a respective operable means associated with the BOP. Furthermore, each of the respective operable means are configured in operable association with the interface such that tension in the tethers can be adjustable either individually or together as a group of two or more tethers, by way of the interface.

A hydraulic assembly for a vehicle transmission includes a hydraulic pump for providing a system pressure within a hydraulic circuit, a pressure accumulator for temporarily supplying pressure to the hydraulic circuit, and a valve assembly for charging the pressure accumulator after a predetermined pressure threshold value of the system pressure has been reached or exceeded. The valve assembly is hydraulically connected between the pump and the pressure accumulator.

A gasket device for a pneumatic valve system, in particular of a commercial vehicle, comprises gasket part being adapted to be inserted into at least a groove of a contact face of a first casing part, e.g. an adapter, the gasket part comprising at least one gasket chamber for sealingly connecting device channels of mounted casing parts; a body part being adapted to be received in a valve seat of the casing part; at least one spring part connecting the body part and the gasket part,
wherein the body part is moveable in an airflow direction relative to the gasket part by bending or stretching the at least one spring part,
wherein in an unbiased basic condition of the gasket device the body part is positioned above a gasket plane defined by the gasket chamber.

The gasket device is made as a single part of a flexible, elastic material.

A compressed-air treatment system and operating method are disclosed. The compressed-air treatment system has a first valve unit configured to charge a control line for a compressor with pressure and a pressure regulator valve unit configured to release pressure from a feed line, A control port of the pressure regulator valve unit is connectable to a second valve unit. A regeneration line which has a check valve for regeneration and which is utilized for a regeneration of a dryer cartridge is connected directly to the control line. During a filling operation the compressed-air treatment system is configured to release leakage air of the regeneration check valve via the first valve unit to surroundings. The filling operation is an operating state in which the compressor is activated to perform a supply of compressed air to a vehicle compressed-air system.
