摘要:
A method and apparatus wherein the movement of a cylinder and piston, one with respect to the other, is measured. The measurement is carried out by way of a transducer which converts the relative movement into an electrical magnitude. The transducer includes a piston component fixed to the piston so as to move therewith, this piston being formed in the interior of the cylinder with an axial bore. The transducer also has a cylinder component which is maintained at a location which does not change with respect to the cylinder and which extends at least in part into the bore of the piston, this latter component of the transducer being coaxial with the piston.

An example valve includes: a first port; a second port; a third port; a poppet configured to be subjected to (i) a first fluid force by fluid of the first port acting on the poppet in a proximal direction toward a poppet seat, and (ii) a second fluid force by fluid of the second port acting on the poppet in a distal direction; a pilot piston configured to be subjected to a pilot fluid force by a pilot fluid signal received at the third port; a check spring applying a spring force on the poppet in the proximal direction; and pilot spring applying a pilot spring force on the pilot piston in the proximal direction.

A piston actuator (10) includes a housing (12) having a hollow interior (12a) for enclosing a piston (14) defined by a head (14a) and a rod (14b). The piston (14) can reciprocate between first and second end limits of travel within the housing (12) and separates the housing (12) into first and second expandable fluid chambers (16a, 16b). The housing (12) has a rod-end opening (12b) at one end and a head-end opening (12c) at an opposite end. The piston (14) can include a longitudinally extending aperture (14c) formed therein with an open end (14d) facing the head-end opening (12c) of the housing (12). A magnet (18) can be supported by the piston (14) adjacent to the open end (14d) of the longitudinally extending aperture (14c) in the piston (14). A position sensor (20) can be supported by the housing (12) within the longitudinally extending aperture (14c) in the piston (14) adjacent to the magnet (18) for sensing the position of the piston (14) during movement between the first and second end limits of travel within the housing (12).

A motor control system includes a piston chamber and a piston assembly disposed within the piston chamber to move therein between first and second positions. A magnet is coupled to the piston assembly to move therewith and a sensor is axially mounted with respect to the piston assembly to generate a continuous output signal corresponding to a position of the magnet relative to the sensor. The motor control system also includes a controller for processing the output signal from the sensor to monitor continuously the position of the piston assembly within the piston chamber and for actuating the piston assembly to move in an upstroke toward the first position and in a downstroke toward the second position.

A piston-cylinder assembly, in particular for pneumatic, hydraulic or mechatronic systems, includes a cylinder housing and a piston. The piston is coupled to a piston rod and disposed in the cylinder housing such that it can move along a longitudinal axis. A measuring device for detecting piston or piston rod position is provided inside the cylinder housing.

An actuator and sensor assembly with a housing defining a pocket and an access opening. A substrate with a sensor is located in the pocket through the access opening. A nozzle extends from the housing. A sleeve surrounds the nozzle and retains a hose on the nozzle. A connector assembly is located opposite and normal the pocket and the substrate. Compliant terminal pins extend generally normally from the connector assembly into the pocket and through-holes in the substrate. An actuator shaft gimbal includes a head located in a housing collar and a flexible neck extends through a housing aperture. A shoulder on the neck of the gimbal locks the gimbal in the collar.

A fluid pressure cylinder includes a cylinder tube, a piston rod, and a displacement sensor. A bottom portion of the cylinder tube has: a pin hole formed in a direction orthogonal to a center axis; and a through hole penetrating the bottom portion through the pin hole. The displacement sensor has: a sensor body disposed on inner side of the pin hole in the through hole; a sensor rod provided so as to extend from the sensor body; and an annular magnet relatively movable with respect to the sensor rod. The through hole has: a reduced-diameter portion; and a female screw portion that has a female screw formed on an inner circumference of the female screw portion. The sensor body is fixed by being pressed by a plug that is screwed into the female screw portion and by being engaged with the reduced-diameter portion.

A position sensing assembly adapted for use with a master cylinder to measure travel of a piston of the master cylinder via a magnet operatively coupled to the piston thereof for movement therewith between a zero brake apply position and a full brake apply position. According to one embodiment, the position sensing assembly includes a housing adapted to be attached to a master cylinder housing and a flux concentrator operatively disposed with the position sensing assembly housing. The flux concentrator includes a first end, an intermediate body, and a second end. At least one of the first end and the second end defines a longitudinal plane and at least a portion of the intermediate body is oriented at an angle relative to the longitudinal plane whereby the position sensing assembly is adapted to measure the travel of the piston of the master cylinder via the magnet.
