A series train of symmetrical dual rod-end double-action hydraulic cylinders with a cross sectional area in a series of powers of 2. The cylinders have corresponding computer controlled valves. The cylinders are switchable into three states. One state of shortcutting 2 fluid ports, another state of driving towards each opposite direction of reciprocation and the third state of idling. In the cylinder train all same polarity ports of the valve assembly are connected by hoses or pipes to align towards the same orientation to enable synchronous reciprocal motion and train power output.

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.

A hydraulic machine is provided. A boom actuator includes a large chamber and a small chamber. A recovery unit receives fluid discharged from the large chamber and then recovers energy. A recovery line connects the large chamber and the recovery unit. An accumulator is connected to the recovery line. A jack-up assist line connects the accumulator and the small chamber. A jack-up assist valve is disposed on the jack-up assist line to block flow of fluid from the accumulator to the small chamber in a first position and allow the flow of fluid from the accumulator to the small chamber in a second position. A controller controls movement of the jack-up assist valve. The controller may determine whether or not the hydraulic machine is in a jack-up condition, and when the hydraulic machine is determined to be in the jack-up condition, moves the jack-up assist valve to the second position.
