Abstract
The present invention relates to a hydro-transformer including a hydraulic machine, a switching valve and a control means. A work port of the switching valve, which may optionally be connected hydraulically with a pressure port of the switching valve or a drain port of the switching valve, is connected with a first port of the hydraulic machine. The second port of the hydraulic machine is in hydraulic connection with a drive member. The switching valve is driven by the control means in response to a signal characterizing the volume flow into the hydraulic machine. Where the driver member is a cylinder, its extension may be carried out at a constant velocity and independently of a load, and energy may be recovered upon retraction. Due to the provision of a further switching valve between the second part of the hydrostatic motor and the drive member, a higher pressure may be generated at the drive member in the presence of a low pressure at the pressure port of the switching valve.
