Bent connecting rod after hydrolock Same connecting rod, turned 90°. Hydrolock (a shorthand notation for hydrostatic lock or hydraulic lock) is an abnormal condition of any device which is designed to compress a gas by mechanically restraining it; most commonly the reciprocating internal combustion engine, the case this article refers to unless otherwise noted.
"Flymo" is a brand name of the Swedish company Husqvarna AB, [2] a part of Electrolux from 1978 to 2006. The mower is a variation of the petrol-powered rotary push lawn mower, but uses a fan above the mower's spinning blades to allow the mower's body to hover over the lawn. The mower is claimed to be more manoeuvrable and easier to push than ...
Hydrostatic transmissions for earth moving machines, such as for track loaders, are often equipped with a separate 'inch pedal' that is used to temporarily increase the diesel engine rpm while reducing the vehicle speed in order to increase the available hydraulic power output for the working hydraulics at low speeds and increase the tractive ...
Hydrostatic transmission, using hydraulic motors to convert the fluid energy into rotary propulsion; Hydraulic drive system § Hydraulic cylinder, using hydraulic rams acting on a swashplate or crank to convert the fluid pressure into rotation; Hydrokinetic transmission, involving one or more torque converters; commonly used in railway locomotives
A lawn mower (also known as a grass cutter or simply mower, also often spelled lawnmower) is a device utilizing one or more revolving blades (or a reel) to cut a grass surface to an even height. The height of the cut grass may be fixed by the mower's design but generally is adjustable by the operator, typically by a single master lever or by a ...
In medicine, hydrostatic pressure in blood vessels is the pressure of the blood against the wall. It is the opposing force to oncotic pressure . In capillaries, hydrostatic pressure (also known as capillary blood pressure) is higher than the opposing “colloid osmotic pressure” in blood—a “constant” pressure primarily produced by ...
The presence of colloid particles (typically with size in the range between 1 nanometer and 1 micron), uniformly dispersed in a binary liquid mixtures, is able to drive a convective hydrodynamic instability even though the system is initially in a condition of stable gravitational equilibrium (hence opposite to the Rayleigh-Taylor instability ...
Hydraulic motors usually have a drain connection for the internal leakage, which means that when the power unit is turned off the hydraulic motor in the drive system will move slowly if an external load is acting on it. Thus, for applications such as a crane or winch with suspended load, there is always a need for a brake or a locking device.
