Flat Single-Acting Hydraulic Cylinders: Specialized Components for Efficient Power Transmission in Compact Spaces
Flat single-acting hydraulic cylinders are specialized components of hydraulic systems designed for efficient power transmission in compact spaces. These cylinders are designed to apply force in one direction, using hydraulic oil to extend the piston through a spring mechanism or gravity, while returning to the original position.
Design and Construction Characteristics
- Flat Design: Allows for use in narrow spaces
- Compact Dimensions: Ideal for applications with limited vertical clearance
- Single Role: Fluid pressure only applied to extensions for simple operation
- Durability: Typically made of high-strength steel or aluminum, with protective coatings for wear and corrosion resistance
Working Principle
The working principle of flat single-acting hydraulic cylinders is realized by the pressure of hydraulic oil, with the action of a spring or gravity to achieve the return. The movement of the piston, input of hydraulic oil, and the repeated cycle are key components of how these cylinders operate.
Types and Configurations
There are three different types of flat single-acting hydraulic cylinders available, each with specific configurations to suit various applications.
