It consists of:
• a movable piston connected to the output shaft in an
enclosed cylinder
• storage tank
• filter
• electric pump
• pressure regulator
• control valve
• leakproof closed loop piping.
The storage/fluid tank is a reservoir for the liquid used
as a transmission media
The liquid used is generally high-density incompressible
oil. It is filtered to remove dust or any other unwanted
particles and then pumped by the hydraulic pump.
Gear and vane pumps are primarily used for fixed flow
applications; they are positive displacement pumps that
deliver the same volume for each cycle of
the pumping element.
A single-acting cylinder in a reciprocating engine is

load, springs, other cylinders, or the momentum of a
flywheel, to push the piston back in the other direction.
A double-acting cylinder is a cylinder in which the
working fluid acts alternately on both sides of the
piston. ...
