A traditional hydraulic ram has only two moving parts, a spring or weight loaded "waste" valve sometimes known as the "clack" valve and a "delivery" check valve, making it cheap to build, easy to maintain, and very reliable. Priestly's Hydraulic Ram, described in detail in the 1947 Encyclopedia Britannica, has no moving parts. [9]
A breaker is mounted on the excavator on the left side Hydraulic breaker attachment on a skid-steer loader. A breaker is a powerful percussion hammer fitted to an excavator for demolishing hard (rock or concrete) structures. It is powered by an auxiliary hydraulic system from
A spreader is a hydraulic tool that is designed with two arms that come together in a narrow tip, and that uses hydraulic pressure to separate or spread the arms. The tip of the tool can be inserted into a narrow gap between two vehicle panels (such as between two doors, or between a door and a fender), then operated to create or widen an opening.
Heron's fountain is a hydraulic machine invented by the 1st century AD inventor, mathematician, and physicist Heron (or Hero) of Alexandria. [ 1 ] Heron studied the pressure of air and steam, described the first steam engine , and built toys that would spurt water, one of them known as Heron's fountain.
However, many hydraulic pumps cannot be used as hydraulic motors because they cannot be backdriven. Also, a hydraulic motor is usually designed for working pressure at both sides of the motor, whereas most hydraulic pumps rely on low pressure provided from the reservoir at the input side and would leak fluid when abused as a motor.

User:MB seems to understand it a bit better than me, and has much further developed the Priestly's Hydraulic Ram article. Anyhow, this device has no moving parts, and is not a "cyclic pump" with moving parts. This article from its origin has always defined a hydraulic ram to involve a cyclic pump. Hey, i am not sure how this should be handled here.

A hydraulic pump is a mechanical source of power that converts mechanical power into hydraulic energy (hydrostatic energy i.e. flow, pressure). Hydraulic pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems and can be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic. They generate flow with enough power to overcome pressure induced by a load at the pump outlet.
