Basics of Hydraulic Jack

• Definition: Hydraulic Jacks lift heavy loads using fluid


pressure.
• Components:
1. Pump: Initiates fluid movement.
2. Cylinder: Encloses fluid and houses the piston.
3. Piston: Moves to lift the load.
• Applications: Used in automotive, construction, and
industrial settings.
Working Principle
Hydraulic jacks work through force applied
to a pump. Pressurizing fluid that moves a
piston to lift loads efficiently. The
incompressibility of fluids provides a
mechanical advantage for lifting heavy
loads with minimal force. Controlled
pressure release ensures precise load
handling. The system's efficiency allows
accurate and controlled lifting and
lowering, making hydraulic jacks vital in
various application
How hydraulic jack works

When force is applied to the pump, hydraulic fluid is pressurized.

Pressurized fluid transmits force to a piston located inside a cylinder.

The pressurized fluid causes the piston to move, creating a lifting force.

As the piston moves, it lifts the load, utilizing the mechanical advantage of hydraulic
fluid.
Releasing the pressure allows for a controlled descent of the load.
Pump:

• Function: Initiates fluid movement in the hydraulic system.


• Types: Manual, electric, or air-powered pumps.
Components • Importance: Source of energy to pressurize the hydraulic fluid.

Cylinder:
jack
• Function: Encloses the hydraulic fluid and houses the piston.
• Construction: Typically made of durable materials like steel.
• Importance: Provides the structure for fluid containments and
piston movements.

Piston:

• Function: Moves within the cylinder in response to pressurized


fluid.
• Materials: Often constructed from high-strength alloys.
• Importance: Generates the force necessary to lift the load.
