Structure of a hydraulic
system
This simplified block
diagram shows the
division of hydraulic
systems into a signal
control section and a
hydraulic power
section. This signal
control section is used
to activate the valves in
the power control
section.
Hydraulic power section
The diagram of the hydraulic power
section is complemented in this
case by a circuit diagram to allow
correlation of the various function
groups; the power supply section
contains the hydraulic pump and
drive motor and the components for
the preparation of the hydraulic
fluid. The energy control section
consists of the various valves used to
provide control and regulate the
flow rate, pressure and direction of
the hydraulic fluid. This drive
section consists of cylinders or
hydraulic motors, depending on the
application in question.
