3.2 Function
The operation of a hydraulic breaker is described in a
greatly simplified version below:
The pressure line »P« supplies oil at the operating pres-
sure of the carrier to the hydraulic breaker. The tank line
»T« returns the oil to the tank of the carrier. The HP-ac-
cumulator compensates pressure variations in the hy-
draulic system.
The percussion piston moves up and down in the cylin-
der. When the percussion piston is in its lower position, it
impacts the working tool. The percussion energy is
transferred to the material to be broken via the working
tool.
