The working principle of a new kind of double-acting pneumatic-hydraulic pressure amplifier having two-step output pressure driven by the pneumatic cylinder with rodless piston is introduced. The output flux and the output pressure calculating formulae are also given out. Compared with the known single-acting pressure amplifier,the innovative pressure-amplifier is simple in structure and has much higher working efficiency. It can also output adaptive two-step liquid pressure, which is similar with the hydraulic differential connection, thus it is easy to realize move quickly in low pressure and move slowly at high pressure. This system also fits a trend of green manufacturing for using green air as transmission medium and with closed oil without leak to output pressure liquid.

The research on greenization of fixture technology is next to nothing nearly now. Approaches for greenization of fixture technology were discussed based on the analysis of energy forms and medium of fluid transmission. The feasibility that using manual fixture with multiple series supper-force-amplified device instead of power driven fixture was presented in the point of view for greenization of energy type. The working principle of manual fixture with four-step series force-amplified device, which we have invented independently, was introduced. According to the thought for greenization of medium of fluid transmission, the feasibility that employing pneumatic fixture with force-amplified device or pneumatic-hydraulic pressure-amplified device instead of hydraulic fixture.

When gear oil pump works, oil chamber is filled with high pressure oil, gear moves between housing and sealing devices and must maintain a certain gap between them, so that leakage is inevitable. In this paper, from structure and working principle of gear pump, the main factors influencing its leakage are spindle end gap, face clearance, radial clearance and the gap of the tooth contact surface. Taking effective measures to control the gear oil pump clearance and improve the working efficiency.

With the rapid development of hydraulic technology, pressure-driven piston pump, the output pressure, simple structure, in the field of mechanical engineering and field engineering work has been widely used. For existing pneumatic piston existence of a functional insufficiency, poor technical performance, the irrational structure, and high-pressure areas, especially in high pressure areas occupy an irreplaceable position in the axial and radial piston pumps, there are also complex, expensive, traffic pulse rate not ideal and other indicators of disadvantage. In this paper, the normal replacement method for flexible-rigid pneumatic cylinder replacement tendons, structural design, light weight, is able to adapt to harsh environments tendon type pneumatic piston. Practical results shows that the design of the pneumatic piston in the wild-type tendon in applied engineering work obtains good results.

Imitating the structure of the venous valve and its characteristics of passive opening and closing with changes in heart pressure, a piezoelectric pump with flexible valves (PPFV) was designed. Firstly, the structure and the working principle of the PPFV were introduced. Then, the flexible valve, the main functional component of the pump, was analyzed theoretically. Finally, an experimental prototype was manufactured and its performance was tested. The research proves that the PPFV can achieve a smooth transition between valved and valveless by only changing the driving signal of the piezoelectric (PZT) vibrator. The results demonstrate that when the driving voltage is 100 V and the frequency is 25 Hz, the experimental flow rate of the PPFV is about 119.61 mL/min, and the output pressure is about 6.16 kPa. This kind of pump can realize the reciprocal conversion of a large flow rate, high output pressure, and a small flow rate, low output pressure under the electronic control signal. Therefore, it can be utilized for fluid transport and pressure transmission at both the macro-level and the micro-level, which belongs to the macro–micro combined component.

A new type of six-bar swaying machine was put forward, which is an ingenious combination of plane multi-bar mechanism and high pressure oil cylinder. Preliminary analysis shows that this machine has many advantages, such as the torque produced by its unit weight, its small size, its light deadweight, etc. Thus it can be applied to situations that need swaying mechanism with low rotational speed and great torque. Firstly, the mechanism composition and working principle of the swaying machine were introduced. Secondly, parameterized modeling of the mechanism was carried out by utilizing software ADAMS. Then kinematic analysis and kinetic analysis were completed by using ADAMS. Finally, key dimensions were adjusted according to kinetic analysis. These tasks are believed to be beneficial to the development of the novel transmission.

Artificial muscle is a new style of actuator with novel working principle, which owns the advantages of compact structure, high power-to-weight ratio, compliance and easy application. Pneumatic artificial muscle (PAM) is usually used in robotics, medical auxiliaries and other small force output occasions nowadays. However, it suffers problems of small power, hysteresis and poor repeatability. A kind of artificial muscle working at high pressure was researched. Different muscle styles are compared and MicKibben structure is selected while fluid media is determined. Furthermore, factors of geometry and material properties, which limit the ultimate pressure, are analyzed. Formulas and simulations verify the influence of limitation and help to calculate key parameters of 18MPa artificial muscle. Data show that it is possible in theory to design high pressure artificial muscle by overall consideration of initial diameter, initial contraction angle and material properties, initial length only influent the stroke.

A hydraulic pressure energy harvester (HPEH) device, which utilizes a housing to isolate a piezoelectric stack from the hydraulic fluid via a mechanical interface, generates power by converting the dynamic pressure within the system into electricity. Prior work developed an HPEH device capable of generating 2187 microWatts from an 85 kPa pressure ripple amplitude using a 1387 mm3 stack. A new generation of HPEH produced 157 microWatts at the test conditions of 18 MPa static pressure and 394 kPa root-mean-square pressure amplitude using a 50 mm3 stack, thus increasing the power produced per volume of piezoelectric stack principally due to the higher dynamic pressure input. The stack and housing design implemented on this new prototype device yield a compact, high-pressure hydraulic pressure energy harvester designed to withstand 35 MPa. The device, which is less than a 2.54 cm in length as compared to a 5.3 cm length of a previous HPEH, was statically tested up to 21.9 MPa and dynamically tested up to 19 MPa with 400 kPa root-mean-square dynamic pressure amplitude. An inductor was included in the load circuit in parallel with the stack and the load resistance to increase the power output of the device. A previously developed electromechanical power output model for this device that predicts the power output given the dynamic pressure ripple amplitude is compared to the power results. The power extracted from this device would be sufficient to meet the proposed applications of the device, which is to power sensor nodes in hydraulic systems.

We demonstrate a silica diaphragm-based fiber tip Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI) for high-pressure (40 MPa) sensing. By using a fiber tip polishing technique, the thickness of the silica diaphragm could be precisely controlled and the pressure sensitivity of the fabricated FPI sensor was enhanced significantly by reducing the diaphragm thickness; however, the relationship between the pressure sensitivity and diaphragm thickness is not linear. A high sensitivity of −1.436 nm/MPa and a linearity of 0.99124 in hydraulic pressure range of 0 to 40 MPa were demonstrated for a sensor with a diaphragm thickness of 4.63 μm. The achieved sensitivity was about one order of magnitude higher than the previous results reported on similar fiber tip FPI sensors in the same pressure measurement range. Sensors with a thinner silica diaphragm (i.e., 4.01 and 2.09 μm) rendered further increased hydraulic pressure sensitivity, but yield a significant nonlinear response. Two geometric models and a finite element method (FEM) were carried out to explain the nonlinear response. The simulation results indicated the formation of cambered internal silica surface during the arc discharge process in the fiber tip FPI sensor fabrication.
