Abstract

Disclosed is a bellows accumulator in which a folding bellows, which serves as a movable separating element between a first media side and a second media side, has at its bellows end, a closure body which media-tightly closes of the interior of the folding bellows and, at its other bellows end, is immovably fixed relative to a storage housing. The accumulator has a valve device which, when the pressure on a liquid side drops, moves to a closed position, thereby preventing liquid from continuing to flow out of the storage housing. The closing process for the valve device is controlled using an energy store, which is arranged between the valve device and the closure body of the folding bellows in such a way that a specifiable quantity of liquid remains in the storage housing in any case, the quantity of liquid supporting the folding bellows in an expanded position.

Abstract

A hydropneumatic piston accumulator has an accumulator housing (1) defining a housing longitudinal axis (11) and a piston (9) longitudinally movable between two housing covers (5, 7) positioned opposite each other. In the housing (1), the piston (9) separates a working chamber (13) for a compressible medium, such as a working gas, from a working chamber (15) for an incompressible medium, such as hydraulic fluid. A piston part (55) of a displacement measurement device continuously determines each position of the piston (9) in the housing (1). A rod-shaped guide (29, 57) is stationarily positioned in the accumulator housing (1) and passes all the way through the piston (9) in each of its displacement positions in the accumulator housing (1). The piston (9) is movably guided along the guide until it reaches the stop on one of the two housing covers (5, 7) and is sealed against this guide (29,57) using a sealing device (49, 50).

Abstract

A device determines the weight of a hydraulic accumulator (10) during its operation in a hydraulic facility. A pressurised liquid is introduced into a pressure vessel at least partially filled with a gas. The pressurised liquid compresses the gas and is stored in such a way that when it leaves the accumulator (10) hydraulic energy is emitted to the facility. The respective current weight of the hydraulic accumulator (10) is detected by a weighing device (14) applied to the hydraulic accumulator (10).

Abstract

A hydropneumatic piston accumulator has an accumulator housing (1) with a cylindrical tube (3) defining a longitudinal axis (11). The cylindrical tube (3) is closed at both ends by housing covers (5, 7). A piston (9) is longitudinally movable in the cylindrical tube (3) and separates a working chamber (13) for a compressible medium from a working chamber for an incompressible medium. A displacement measuring device determines the position of the piston (9) in the housing in a contact-free manner. The displacement measuring device includes a non-magnetic measuring tube (29) extending along the longitudinal axis (11) from one housing cover (5) to the other housing cover (7) and through a passage (31) formed in the piston (9) and is sealed against the interior of the housing (1). In the tube (29), a position sensor (57) is movably guided and follows the piston movements in the measuring tube (29) using a magnetic force acting between the piston sensor (57) and the piston (9). A transmitter/receiver (65) for the displacement measuring device is positioned on one of the housing covers (5, 7) and emits a measurement beam through the open end (25, 26) of the measuring tube (29) to the position sensor (57) and receives reflected radiation.

Abstract

A safety device includes a connection point (21) for a pressure accumulator (1) that is connected to a bursting unit (55) at the gas end via the connection point (21). The bursting unit (55) can be triggered by a controllable force element (73). In the triggered state, the bursting unit allows the pressure accumulator (1) to be emptied at the gas end.
