CONT.[/b][/size] Title: Type of piston inside of tank Post by: LowriderUK on April 26, 2004, 10:29:25 AM I can see how it works, the main pressure feed runs off to the cylinders to lift the car, whereas the secondary pressure feed activates the plunger in the tank pressurising the fluid.
Can you now explain what benefit this has? Does pressurising the fluid mean that less force is required by the main pressure feed to the cylinders? Surely the benefit of this would be cancelled out by the additional requirement of the secondary feed to actually power the piston in the tank? Title: Type of piston inside of tank Post by: Hydros on April 26, 2004, 09:03:27 PM The aux pump head is high volume, low pressure. It feeds fluid to the main pump (which is high pressure low volume). The aux pump also feed pressure to the internal cylinder.
Feeding pressure to the cylinder helps to provide more pressure to push fluid into the aux pump and at the same time reduce or insures constent pressure to the aux pump. Looking at this system, I sometimes wonder if there is a flaw with the aux pump and internal cylinder theory. I guess a proto-type would prove or disprove this design.
