Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to an apparatus having a plurality of hydraulic actuators (Si) and a piston-cylinder unit (K), one working chamber (AK1) of which is connected, via at least one hydraulic connection line (HL) and supply lines (ZLi), to working chambers (ASi) of the hydraulic actuators (Si), wherein each working chamber (ASi) of a hydraulic actuator (Si) is connected to a supply line (ZLi) and switch valves (EVi) for selective opening and closing of the hydraulic supply lines (ZLi) are provided such that, in the opened position of the associated switch valve (EVi), a pressure change in the working chamber (ASi) of the actuator (Si) or an adjustment of the actuator (Si) can occur, wherein at least one pressure sensor (DSi) for determining the pressure in a working chamber (ASi) of an actuator (Si) or a hydraulic line (HL, ZLi, ALi) and a control device (ECU) is provided, characterized in that, for simultaneous pressure change in at least two actuators, (Si, Sk), the (ECU) permanently opens the switch valve (EVi) associated with a first actuator (Si) during the pressure change phase and adjusts or regulates the pressure by adjusting the piston (KK) of the piston-cylinder unit (K), and in that the control device (ECU) adjusts or regulates the pressure in at least one additional actuator (Sk) by means of the switch valve (EVk), which is clocked during the pressure change phase, and in particular is controlled by pulse width modulation.
