A vehicle crane having a telescoping jib, comprising a basic box with retractable and extendible inner boxes and a securing and locking unit that comprises a first adjusting cylinder and a second adjusting cylinder which are each designed as unilaterally acting hydraulic cylinders with a first spring element and a second spring element as well as a first line and a second line, where the first adjusting cylinder moves locking bolts between operating states of unbolted and bolted and the second adjusting cylinder moves driving bolts between operating states of secured and released. In the event of a malfunction, the first adjusting cylinder moves to the bolted operating state and the second adjusting cylinder moves to the released operating state.

A crane telescope locking device includes a control device which is hydraulically in contact with a telescoping cylinder of a crane telescope and, for the purpose of actuating, with at least one cylinder lock hydraulic cylinder and includes a valve which is open in its inactivated resting state and thus opens a fluidic connection between the telescoping cylinder and the at least one cylinder lock hydraulic cylinder. A telescoping cylinder (6) of a crane includes such a crane telescope locking device.

A collar for a telescopic cylinder with a cap includes the terminal portion of the cap that presents the opening of the cap, such that the collar includes in the following order a first annular element with a contoured profile, which surrounds the terminal portion and is welded thereto, and a second annular element, which can move with respect to the terminal portion and to the first annular element.

The collar further includes an O-ring, made of rubber, surrounding the terminal portion and a third annular element surrounding the terminal portion and welded thereto.

The first annular element has, at its internal circumference, an annular guide with a curved internal circumferential surface, the internal circumferential surface having, at each point of its circumference, a vertical cross-section with a shape that is concave as it progresses toward the outside of the collar.

An example tool includes a hydraulic actuator cylinder; a piston slidably accommodated within the hydraulic actuator cylinder, where the piston includes a piston head and a piston rod extending from the piston head along a central axis direction of the hydraulic actuator cylinder, the piston head divides an inside of the hydraulic actuator cylinder into a first chamber and a second chamber, and the piston rod is disposed in the first chamber and configured to move one or more jaws of the tool; a pump configured to provide pressurized fluid; and a sequence valve configured to block the pressurized fluid from flowing into the second chamber of the hydraulic actuator cylinder until pressure of the pressurized fluid exceeds a threshold pressure value.

A forklift truck includes a carriage that moves up and down by a mast assembly in a multi-stage structure including an outer mast, a first inner mast accommodated in the outer mast, and a second inner mast accommodated in the first inner mast. The forklift truck includes a first lift cylinder configured to move the first inner mast up and down; a second lift cylinder configured to move the second inner mast up and down and having a pressure reception area less than a pressure reception area of the first lift cylinder. A first lift hydraulic line supplies hydraulic oil to the first lift cylinder. A second lift hydraulic line supplies hydraulic oil to the second lift cylinder. A pressure regulating valve is provided to increase a pressure of the hydraulic oil to a pressure capable of driving the second lift cylinder.

A linear actuator system includes a linear actuator including an outer body, an inner body disposed within the outer body, a fluid chamber at least partially extending between the inner body and the outer body, a piston chamber extending at least partially within the inner body, a valve configured to selectively fluidly couple the fluid chamber and the piston chamber to each other, a piston assembly including a piston, a variable volume within the piston chamber that extends between the piston and the valve, and a gas collector assembly including a fluid passageway. The piston assembly is disposed within the piston chamber, wherein a movement of the piston assembly causes a gas separated from a liquid within the variable volume to flow through the fluid passageway, through the valve, and into the fluid chamber.

A collar for a telescopic cylinder with a cap includes the terminal portion of the cap that presents the opening of the cap, such that the collar includes in the following order a first annular element with a contoured profile, which surrounds the terminal portion and is welded thereto, and a second annular element, which can move with respect to the terminal portion and to the first annular element. The collar further includes an O-ring, made of rubber, surrounding the terminal portion and a third annular element surrounding the terminal portion and welded thereto. The first annular element has, at its internal circumference, an annular guide with a curved internal circumferential surface, the internal circumferential surface having, at each point of its circumference, a vertical cross-section with a shape that is concave as it progresses toward the outside of the collar.

A forklift truck includes a carriage that moves up and down by a mast assembly in a multi-stage structure including an outer mast, a first inner mast accommodated in the outer mast, and a second inner mast accommodated in the first inner mast. The forklift truck includes a first lift cylinder configured to move the first inner mast up and down; a second lift cylinder configured to move the second inner mast up and down and having a pressure reception area less than a pressure reception area of the first lift cylinder. A first lift hydraulic line supplies hydraulic oil to the first lift cylinder. A second lift hydraulic line supplies hydraulic oil to the second lift cylinder. A pressure regulating valve is provided to increase a pressure of the hydraulic oil to a pressure capable of driving the second lift cylinder.

A saddle clamp for a bicycle includes a rail clamp, and a first and a second post clamp. The rail clamp includes a first rail clamp body configured to engage at least a portion of a first rail of a bicycle saddle, and a second rail clamp body configured to engage at least a portion of a second rail of the bicycle saddle, wherein the first and second rail clamp bodies are configured to cooperate to urge the first and second rails towards each other. Each post clamp is configured to engage a bicycle seat post, with the first and second post clamps disposed between the first and second rail clamp bodies, wherein the first and second post clamps are configured to exert a compressive force on the bicycle seat post in response to the first and second rail clamp bodies urging the first and second rails towards each other.

A height-adjustable seat post includes a lower tube having a top open end and a bottom open end, an upper tube having a top end and a bottom end, and a saddle clamp removably coupled to the upper tube. The top end of the upper tube is configured to be received through the bottom open end of the lower tube and extend beyond the top open end, and, when the saddle clamp is removed from the upper tube, the top end of the upper tube is configured to pass through the bottom open end of the lower tube.
