Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0566203A1] The invention relates to a device comprising a hydraulic system with a source of hydraulic medium under pressure, a reservoir for the medium, at least two cylinder/piston assemblies (5,6) and a control valve (23) for connecting the source or the reservoir at choice to the cylinders. The cylinders are connected in series and the cylinders are dimensioned such that the effective piston surface in the chambers of the two cylinders, which chambers are directly connected to each other by a connecting conduit (10), is equal. Synchronous operating means comprising position sensors (14,15) generate a signal corresponding with the extended position of each piston, a first correction valve (18) can mutually connect the two connections of the first cylinder/piston assembly (5) in the series connection, a second correction valve (20) can connect the connecting conduit (10) to the reservoir, and wherein control means (13) are arranged connected to the position sensors (14,15) and the correction valves (18,20). <IMAGE>
