Hydraulic sb沙巴体育投注 Guide: Hydraulic Terminology

By Adam Sgammotta |

Check out our list of common hydraulic terminology used in the manufacturing, 汽车, 重型设备, 航空航天, 和 construction industries.

A-C

蓄电池

A pressurized container that stores fluid, which will then be used as a source of hydraulic power or to absorb 机械 shock.

溢流阀

A 机械 component that can be opened or closed to relieve pressure or to provide tight shut-off or isolation of fluids or liquids from a closed 系统.

Closed Center System

A 闭中心 系统 is a type of hydraulic 系统. In this type of 系统, flow can vary while pressure remains constant when control valves are closed or neutral.

sb沙巴体育投注

A device that converts fluid power into linear or circular motion or force. Types of cylinders include vane, rotary, piston, 和 double-acting.

D-F

制动释放

一个液压, 机械, or electrical component that releases a detent device, which helps maintain the position of the directional control valve. 

拟合

A 机械 piping component that is used to tightly connect hoses or pipes in a hydraulic 系统.

浮动轴

A spool valve that connects 和 holds multiple ports of a tank (normally in a detented fourth position) to allow a cylinder or motor to float.

流量

A measurement of the volume of fluid (typically in gallons per minute) that passes through a 系统 point or component.

Fluid Power System

A 系统 that utilizes the power of fluids under pressure to control 和 transmit energy.

L-P

负载检查

A component that prevents the dropping of a load when a valve is shifted, until enough pressure 和/or flow is available to hold or move the load.

(Hydraulic) Motor

An electro机械 assembly that converts hydraulic energy into fixed or variable rotary motion. The different types of hydraulic motors include piston, vane, 和 gear.

试验电路

A valve or circuit used to prevent the machine from self-starting after a circuit breaker trip or power failure.

港口

The open end of a hydraulic fluid line.

压力

The measure of fluid force per unit area as expressed in pounds per square inch (psi), 酒吧, 或大气. In hydraulic terms, pressure converts a small force into an appreciable multiple of itself. There are various types of pressure, 包括回, 突破, 破解, 微分, 全流式, 操作, 飞行员, 额定, 静态, 吸, 飙升, 系统, 和工作.

压力开裂

The amount of pressure it takes to open a 救援 valve or other pressure-ope额定 valve.

A 机械 assembly that converts 机械 force into fixed or variable hydraulic fluid power. The different types of hydraulic pumps are gear vane, 和 piston.

R-V

Regenerative Circuit

一个液压 circuit in which pressure fluid is discharged from a component 和 returned to the 系统 to reduce flow input requirements. These circuits are used to increase cylinder action by directing discharged oil from the rod end to the piston end.

储层

An open vessel or closed container that holds a supply of working fluid in a hydraulic 系统.

密封

Gasket-like, non-metallic rings that block or control the escape or passage of hydraulic fluid.

双向

A two-directional, or two-port valve or component that has inlet 和 outlet ports.

A 机械 component that can control the amount of pressure of a fluid, the direction of fluid flow, or the rate of flow. The main types of valves include bypass flow regulator, 检查, 闭中心, directional control, electro-hydraulic, 流控制, 分流器, 针, 开放的中心, 飞行员, 先导式, 宝宝, 压力控制, pressure reducing, pressure sequence, priority 分流器, proportional 分流器, 救援, rotary directional, 选择器, 航天飞机, spool directional, 热解脱, 和 volume control.
