Abstract:
A piston accumulator, having a pressure vessel; a cylinder, which is situated within the pressure vessel; an interspace formed between the pressure vessel and the cylinder; and a separating piston, which is provided movably in the cylinder; in which a hydraulic fluid acts upon on a first side of a separating piston, and a gas acts upon a second side of the separating piston; and in which the gas is in fluidic connection to the interspace and the hydraulic fluid is in fluidic connection to a connection on the cylinder.
Abstract:
A volume accumulator (15), including a guide housing (33) and a separating element (34), wherein the separating element (34) is slidably mounted on an inner lateral face of the guide housing (33). At least one indentation (41) is located on the guide housing (33), with the indentation protruding into the guide housing (33), wherein in the direction of the separating element (34) the indentation (41) has an open end that serves as a stop for the separating element (34).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for transferring a hydraulic working pressure in a pressure fluid for pressure actuating hydraulic units of deep sea systems, in particular deepwater wells, wherein a first pressure chamber (19) for the pressure fluid, a displaceable piston arrangement (9, 11, 13) for changing the volume of said pressure chamber (19), and at least one second pressure chamber (21) are present in a cylinder arrangement (1), wherein the surrounding pressure of the deep sea can be applied to the second pressure chamber for a displacement of the piston arrangement (9, 11, 13) generating the working pressure in the first pressure chamber (19), characterized in that a pressure accumulator (37) is associated with the cylinder arrangement (1), the displaceable separating element (41) of said pressure accumulator separating a chamber (45) connected to the seawater from an actuating chamber (43), which contains an actuating fluid and is connected to the second pressure chamber (21) in order to apply the deep sea pressure to said second pressure chamber by means of the actuating fluid.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a hydraulic accumulator device in the form of a membrane accumulator, comprising a membrane (16) which separates a pneumatic volume from a hydraulic volume. In order to improve said hydraulic accumulator device with respect to the degree of efficiency and/or manufacturing costs, the membrane (16) is tensioned between two holding bodies (4,5) which respectively comprise several recesses (11-14) and between which the membrane (16) is tensioned in order to produce several hydropneumatic membrane accumulators.
Abstract:
The invention is a combination accumulator and reservoir which stores energy when the accumulator deforms from its original shape in response to the flow of a pressurized fluid from the reservoir. The stored energy is returned when the fluid flow is reversed and the accumulator discharges the fluid and returns to its original shape. At least one part of the novelty of the invention is that the accumulator and the fluid reservoir reside in the same housing such that the volume of each varies inversely. Accordingly, the invention is more compact and weighs less than conventional accumulators. Another feature of the invention is that fluid is located around the bladder accumulator to lubricate contact between the bladder and sides of the reservoir.
Abstract:
The present invention is a distributed piston elastomeric accumulator which stores energy when its elastomeric member stretches from its original length in response to the flow of a pressurized fluid. The stored energy is returned when the fluid flow is reversed and the accumulator discharges the fluid as its elastomeric member returns to its original length and moves the piston to its initial position. At least one part of the novelty of the invention is that the accumulator is not subject to radial strain gradients and the accumulator allows for precise pressure and linear position measurements. Accordingly, the invention allows for optimization of the energy strain storage capacity of a given elastomer.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a low pressure accumulator for an anti-lock brake system of a vehicle. The low pressure accumulator includes a cylinder having one end communicated with a fluid path connected to a valve and a pump and an opposite end formed with an opening, a piston moving back and forth in the cylinder, a spring installed in the cylinder to elastically support the piston, and a plug installed in the opening of the cylinder to support one end of the spring. The plug includes a vent to ventilate air through an inside and an outside of the cylinder.
