The invention relates to a system for hydraulic actuation of multiple consumer units comprising a hydraulic circuit (130) operated by means of a hydraulic motor (122) which actuates a consumer unit (111) wherein, downstream of the first consumer unit (111), the hydraulic circuit (130) has at least one secondary circuit (140, 150) having at least a second consumer unit (114, 118) and arranged before the second consumer unit (114) and a pump (113, 117) directly or indirectly actuated by the first consumer unit (111).

A system and method is provided for monitoring a hydraulic power system having at least one light emitter and a button. The method includes powering on the hydraulic power system, receiving an actuation at the button and detecting a release of the button after a first time interval, and entering a diagnostic state. The method further includes retrieving a code and displaying the code by turning on the emitter in a first pattern. In some embodiments, a system and method is provided for regulating a temperature of a hydraulic power system. In some embodiments, a system and method is provided for controlling operation of a hydraulic torque wrench.

A hydraulic circuit includes a prime mover that is configured to generate an oscillating flow of hydraulic fluid, and an actuator that is driven by the prime mover and configured to provide oscillating motion and to be connected to a load in each direction of the motion. The hydraulic circuit also includes a reclamation device that is disposed in the hydraulic circuit between the prime mover and the actuator. The reclamation device captures and stores a portion of hydraulic fluid displaced from the actuator during a transition between opposed motions, where the portion of hydraulic fluid corresponds to an amount of hydraulic fluid equal to a volume of fluid required to compensate for compression of fluid within the hydraulic circuit due to system pressure and load pressure. The stored fluid is used by the circuit in a subsequent motion.

An HST circuit has a hydraulic pump that converts a drive force of an engine into energy of oil, and a hydraulic motor that converts the energy of the oil converted by the hydraulic pump into drive energy. Pressure sensors detect a pressure of the oil within the HST circuit. A variable charge pump replenishes the oil into the HST circuit. A controller controls a capacity of the variable charge pump based on the pressure of the oil within the HST circuit detected by the pressure sensors.

An abnormality diagnosis method is targeted at a hydraulic device which includes a hydraulic pump and a driven device driven by the hydraulic pump. The method includes calculating a frequency distribution with regard to a deviation between a normal value of an output parameter corresponding to an operation condition and an actual measurement value of the output parameter using a prediction model, and determining the presence of an abnormality if an average of the deviation exceeds a threshold. If the presence of the abnormality is determined, a factor of the abnormality is estimated based on the range of the deviation where a waveform peak of the frequency distribution exists.

Provided is a hydraulic drive device configured not to be increased in length in an axial direction. The hydraulic drive device is provided with a body portion for converting energy of a supplied pressure oil into rotational power, the body portion including an output shaft configured to rotate along a rotational axis by the rotational power, a hydraulic block disposed in an extending direction of the output shaft of the body portion and having an oil passage for supplying the pressure oil to the body portion, and a rotation sensor for detecting rotation of the output shaft, at least part of the rotation sensor being disposed in the hydraulic block.

A control system is provided for a power machine that includes a hydraulic charge circuit with a hydraulic charge pump, and a variable displacement drive pump. A signal for control of displacement of the drive pump can be diverted from the hydraulic charge circuit downstream from the pump, including via a flow path that branches from the hydraulic charge circuit from a location upstream of a hydraulic load.

A fluid-powered linear motor with rotary pistons is disclosed. An application is for a downhole motor but it could be used in other applications. Rotational pistons provide increased torque generation as the torque generated is proportional to motor length. Since downhole drills are long (generally up to a maximum length of 30 ft.), a high-torque motor can be produced using this method. A pressurized fluid is used to drive the piston assemblies to produce bit shaft power. This concept employs rotary pistons and a mechanical rectifier to convert the rotational reciprocation produced by a reciprocating rotational piston into continuous rotary motion. Integration of synthetic diamond bearing assemblies into the motor allows for reduced friction and abrasive drilling fluid compatibility.

A hydraulic circuit is disclosed. The hydraulic circuit may include a hydrostatic pump to provide, at a flow rate, a fluid to a hydraulic motor, wherein the hydrostatic pump has a displacement, and wherein the hydraulic motor drives a swinging element; a swing circuit pressure sensor to sense a circuit pressure of the hydraulic circuit; a pilot pressure actuator to control, based on a supply pressure, the displacement of the hydrostatic pump; a pilot pressure override valve to control the supply pressure; and a controller configured to adjust, based on sensed signals and with the pilot pressure override valve, the supply pressure, wherein the sensed signals include: a circuit pressure signal based on the circuit pressure sensed by the swing circuit pressure sensor; and a sensed swing speed signal based on a swing speed of the swinging element sensed by one or more machine sensors.
