Claims
- 1. A hydraulic cylinder with pressure transmission comprising:
- a cylinder jacket;
- a piston-rod guide flange;
- a cylinder bottom;
- a primary piston having at least two bores;
- a piston rod associated with said primary piston;
- a secondary piston;
- at least two plungers, each connected at one end thereof to said secondary piston and each having a free end adapted respectively to enter a corresponding one of said at least two bores;
- a first chamber defined by said cylinder bottom, said cylinder jacket and said primary piston;
- a first supply duct for introducing hydraulic fluid into said first chamber;
- a second chamber defined between said secondary piston and said guide flange;
- a second supply duct for introducing hydraulic fluid into said second chamber;
- an intermediate chamber defined between said primary piston and said secondary piston; and
- a third supply duct for introducing hydraulic fluid into said intermediate chamber.
- 2. A hydraulic cylinder with pressure transmission according to claim 1, wherein hydraulic fluid in said first chamber exerts a force on said free end of each of said at least two plungers, and wherein hydraulic fluid in said second chamber exerts an opposing force on said secondary piston.
- 3. A hydraulic cylinder with pressure transmission according to claim 2, wherein a pressure-impinged area of said secondary piston is large in comparison to a pressure-impinged area of said at least two plungers, such that a hydraulic transmission occurs when pressures in said first and second chambers are equal.
- 4. A hydraulic cylinder with pressure transmission comprising:
- a cylinder jacket;
- a piston-rod guide flange;
- a cylinder bottom;
- a multistepped primary piston;
- an axial duct traversing said primary piston;
- a piston rod associated with said primary piston;
- a secondary piston having a bore therethrough slidably receiving said piston rod;
- a first seal provided between said primary piston and said cylinder jacket;
- a second seal provided between one step of said primary piston and said secondary piston; and
- a third seal provided between another step of said primary piston and said secondary piston.
- 5. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 2, wherein said bore in said secondary piston includes a two-stepped axial bore, said second seal being disposed at one end of said axial bore, and said third seal being formed at an opposite end of said axial bore, such that a chamber is formed between the outside of said primary piston and the inside of said secondary piston.
- 6. A hydraulic cylinder with pressure transmission comprising:
- a cylinder jacket;
- a piston-rod guide flange;
- a cylinder bottom;
- a primary piston having at least two bores;
- a piston rod associated with said primary piston;
- a secondary piston;
- at least two plungers connected to said secondary piston and adapted respectively to enter said two bores;
- two check valves disposed in said cylinder bottom, two springs respectively biasing said check valves, and means for opening said check valves.
- 7. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 6, wherein said two springs have different elasticity constants.
- 8. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 6, wherein each of said check valves includes a bore connecting the front and rear sides of the respective check valve.
- 9. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 7, wherein each of said check valves includes a bore connecting the front and rear sides of the respective check valve.
- 10. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 6, wherein each of said check valves includes a valve chamber, further comprising a space bounded by said piston-rod guide flange and said secondary piston and a first duct connecting said space to a first said valve chamber.
- 11. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 6, wherein each of said check valves includes a valve chamber, further comprising a space bounded by said cylinder bottom and said primary piston and a second duct connecting said space to a second said valve chamber.
- 12. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 10, wherein said primary piston includes a circumferential shoulder, further comprising two unstopping pistons disposed in respective valve-chamber portions, a space bounded by said cylinder jacket and said shoulder, and a third duct connecting said valve-chamber portions and opening into said space.
- 13. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 11, wherein said primary piston includes a circumferential shoulder, further comprising two unstopping pistons disposed in respective valve-chamber portions, a space bounded by said cylinder jacket and said shoulder, and a third duct connecting said valve-chamber portions and opening into said space.
