Hydraulic drive system consists of the following five components: as in hydraulic power units. It is the role of the prime mover (engine, motor or motors, etc.) of mechanical energy into fluid pressure energy, oil pressure to the hydraulic system, is the power source of the hydraulic system. The general structure of the hydraulic pump …
Hydraulic Power Units are the main driving components of hydraulic systems. Consisting mainly of a motor, a reservoir and a hydraulic pump, these units can generate a tremendous amount of power to drive most any kind of hydraulic ram. Hydraulic Power Units are based on Pascal’s law of physics, drawing their power from ratios of …
Light is a physical phenomenon but is interpreted by psychological processes in our brain. It is, therefore, a bit more complex to measure than other physical processes. Some prerequisites have to be established in order to make objective measurements. One of these is the bandwidth of the light frequencies considered, and this is usually from …
When a lens is focused on an object, theoretically, the whole plane passing through the object and perpendicular to the optical axis should be in focus. Practically, objects slightly in front of and behind the object in focus will also appear sharp. This “extra” depth of sharpness is called depth of field. A wide depth …
Images can be constructed by using simple optical and geometrical rules. As can be seen on the following drawing, at least two rays are used to create the image of an object. There are three basic rules to follow: Objects taken at various distances touch the optical axis with one end. By definition, rays that …
When a light ray traveling through air or a vacuum enters a denser medium, it reduces its speed by index of refraction. Different media (which are transparent to light) have different indices of refraction. For example, the speed of light in air is 300,000 km/s and almost the same as in vacuum. If a light …
The techniques used with contactless cards for transferring energy and data are not new. They have been common knowledge for many years in radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems, which have been used for a variety of applications, such as animal implants and transponders for electronic anti-start systems for vehicles. There are many techniques for identifying persons …
The selection of the correct electrified locks is critical t. Where improper locks are used, we suffers from any of the following problems: Failure to comply with code Improper function, causing traffic queues Unsafe exiting conditions Unreliable lock operation resulting in frequent maintenance Persons trapped within a space during an emergency Types of Electrified Locks …
A ball valve, also known as a spherical valve, is a stopcock mechanism used to regulate the flow of a piped fluid and is characterised by having a perforated ball inside as its regulating mechanism.The mechanism is opened by turning the stem linked to the ball, allowing the fluid to pass by aligning the hole in the …
Thermostatic radiator valves are typically used for regulating the medium flow to the radiators of heating systems. When combined to a thermostatic or thermo-electric control head, they keep the ambient temperature of the room where they are installed constantat the set value. This prevents unwanted temperature rises and achieves considerable energy savings. These valves have …
