2. Single- and double-acting cylinders - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-_and_double-acting...

   Typical horizontal steam engine with double-acting cylinder. A double-acting cylinder is a cylinder in which the working fluid acts alternately on both sides of the piston. . In order to connect the piston in a double-acting cylinder to an external mechanism, such as a crank shaft, a hole must be provided in one end of the cylinder for the piston rod, and this is fitted with a gland or ...

3. Telescopic cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_cylinder

   Single acting telescopic cylinders are the simplest and most common design. As with a single acting rod style cylinder, the single acting telescopic cylinder is extended using hydraulic or pneumatic pressure but retracts using external forces when the fluid medium is removed and relieved to the reservoir. This external retraction force is ...

4. Stationary steam engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stationary_steam_engine

   Simple engines, with multiple identical cylinders operating on a common crankshaft. Compound engines which use the exhaust from high-pressure cylinders to power low-pressure cylinders. An engine could be run in simple or condensing mode: Simple mode meant the exhaust gas left the cylinder and passed straight into the atmosphere

5. Reciprocating pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_pump

   Double-acting reciprocating pump engage with both sides of the piston, each stroke of the piston carries out both suction and expulsion at the same time. Thus it require two inflow pipes and two outflow pipes. [2] Triple-acting reciprocating pump; By Numbers of Cylinders. Single cylinder - consists of a single cylinder connected to a shaft.

6. Hydraulic cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_cylinder

   If we call a normal rod cylinder single stage, telescopic cylinders are multi-stage units of two, three, four, five, or more stages. In general telescopic cylinders are much more expensive than normal cylinders. Most telescopic cylinders are single acting (push). Double acting telescopic cylinders must be specially designed and manufactured. [17]

7. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

   Hydraulic actuators or hydraulic cylinders typically involve a hollow cylinder having a piston inserted in it. An unbalanced pressure applied to the piston generates a force that can move an external object. Since liquids are nearly incompressible, a hydraulic cylinder can provide controlled precise linear displacement of the piston. The ...
