The invention to a valve unit () for a synthetically commutated fluid working machine (), comprising a valve body (), a movably arranged valve unit () and a separate fluid flow influencing unit (). The fluid flow influencing unit () comprises a fluid flow influencing means part () and an attachment means part () for mechanical connection with the valve body (). The attachment means part () and the fluid flow influencing unit () are connected to each other by a connection means part (). The circumferential extent of the attachment means part () is larger as compared to the circumferential extent of the connection means part ().

Attachment of a fluid flow hat for actuated valve

It is intended to provide a vehicle comprising a fluid working machine which can reduce wear of parts and be produced at low cost. The fluid working machineis provided with an eccentric cam, a pistonA toF, a cylinderA toF, a drive rodA-F having an engaging partengaging with the piston and a contact partcontacting the eccentric cam, a holding memberA toF surrounding the drive rod, a pressing memberA toF for pressing up the holding member in a radially outward direction, and at least one holding ringfor holding the holding member from the outside.

Vehicle

A valve unit for regulating the flow of working fluid between a working chamber of a fluid working machine and both a first working fluid line and second working fluid line, the valve unit comprising: a first valve comprising a first valve member and one or more cooperating first valve seats, a second valve comprising a second valve member and one or more cooperating second valve seats, an actuator coupled to both the first and second valve members through which a force may be applied to urge the first valve member open or closed and to urge the second valve member open or closed, a coupling between the actuator and the first valve member, wherein the coupling between the actuator and the first valve member comprises a connector which extends at least partially through the second valve member.

Valve unit and a fluid working machine comprising a valve unit

A fluid working machine comprising a controller and a working chamber, an electronically controllable low pressure valve associated therewith and a fast high pressure valve associated therewith, characterized in that the working chamber has associated therewith a slow high pressure valve for controlling the connection of the working chamber to a secondary high pressure manifold. A fluid working machine according to the invention may be operated to rotate its shaft to a certain position, for example to allow easy maintenance of a wind turbine generator.
