Abstract

Ein pneumatisch-hydraulischer Wandler besitzt als Energiequelle einen Druckbehälter (15), in dem ein Gas gespeichert ist. In einer ersten Ausführung ist ein Wandlerkolben (10,11) von dem portionsweise in einen an den Wandlerkolben (10,11) angrenzenden Arbeitsraum (13) abgebbaren und sich darin entspannenden Gas verschiebbar, ist von einer Hydropumpe (28,32) ein Hydraulikfluid in eine Druckleitung (34) verdrängbar und sind der Wandlerkolben (10,11) und die Hydropumpe (28,32) nur über mechanische Koppelungsmittel (25,26,27,30,31) miteinander verbunden. Bei zwei anderen Ausführungen ist anstelle des Wandlerkolbens (10,11) ein Trennkolben (76) vorhanden, der einen ersten Arbeitsraum (79) von einem zweiten Arbeitsraum (72) eines Trennzylinders (73) trennt und der von aus dem Druckbehälter (15) portionsweise in den ersten Arbeitsraum (79) abgebbaren und sich darin entspannenden Gas verschiebbar ist und dabei Hydraulikfluid aus dem zweiten Arbeitsraum (72) verdrängt. Auch hier ist Hydraulikfluid in eine Druckleitung (34) förderbar, an die ein hydraulischer Verbraucher (84) anschließbar ist. Alternativ kann zwischen der Druckleitung (34) und dem zweiten Arbeitsraum (72) des Trennzylinders (73) ein hydraulischer Transformator (70) mit einer drehenden Primäreinheit (90) und einer von dieser mechanisch rotativ antreibbaren Sekundäreinheit (91) oder ein Resonator (112) mit wenigstens einer Druckkammer (119) angeordnet sein, die durch ein gegen eine Feder (121) bewegbares Masseteil (120) begrenzt ist und die über eine Ventilanordnung (113,114) zyklisch mit dem zweiten Arbeitsraum (72) des Trennzylinders (73), einer Niederdruckleitung (115) und der Druckleitung (34) verbindbar ist.
Solche pneumatich-hydraulischen Wandler sind im Vergleich zu einem elektrischen System mit einer Batterie und einem Elektromotor relativ leicht an Gewicht sowie kostengünstig herzustellen.
