    Abstract: A hydraulic machine is described comprising a first part (1, 4) and a second part (7, 8), wherein the first part (1, 4) and the second part (7, 8) are movable relatively to each other in abutting relation, the first part (1, 4) comprises a pressure chamber (2) having a pressure chamber opening (6) in a contact face (5) contacting a sealing face (9) of the second part (7, 8), the second part (7, 8) comprises a low pressure area (10) connected to a low pressure opening (11) in the sealing face (9) and a high pressure area (12) connected to a high pressure opening (13) in the sealing face (9), wherein during a movement of the first part (1, 4) with respect to the second part (7, 8) in a moving direction (14) the pressure chamber opening (6) comes alternatingly in overlap with the low pressure opening (11) and the high pressure opening (13). Such a machine should be flexible in operation with low risk of damages caused by cavitation. To this end a throttling channel (15) in the second part (7, 8) connects the low pressure area (10) with an area in the sealing face (9) in moving direction in front of the low pressure opening (11).

    Abstract: The invention relates to an actuator for a valve in a refrigeration system. The invention also relates to a valve with such actuator, and to a refrigeration system with such valve. The actuator comprises an elongated Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) element extending along two or more string-like extensions from a distant end to a proximate end in relation to a valve element of a valve. The SMA element, when forming part of the valve, may extend from the distant end to the proximate end connected to a housing of the SMA element, however, electrically insulated from the housing. An encapsulation may provide a thermal resistance, a thermal conductor and/or an electrical resistance between the SMA element and other elements or the surroundings of the SMA element.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a pilot valve arrangement (1) comprising a pilot valve device (2) which comprises a pilot valve element (13), a pilot valve seat (14) cooperating with the pilot valve element (13) and a presetting mechanism for presetting an opening pressure of the pilot valve element (13), the pilot valve arrangement (1) further comprising a presetting mechanism actuating device (3) which comprises an actuator element (17) adapted to create an actuating force in order to actuate the presetting mechanism in the pilot valve device so as to preset the opening pressure. According to the invention, the pilot valve arrangement (1) comprises a contactless force coupling arrangement adapted to transfer the actuating force from the presetting mechanism actuating device (3) to the pilot valve device (2). An inventive pilot valve device (2) is disclosed and claimed as well. The invention allows to improve maintenance and safety concerning the devices mentioned above.
