ABSTRACT:
A three-cylinder hydraulic system providing position feedback for controlling powered machinery is described wherein an operator moves a control handle and the various working elements of the machinery respond to follow the path of the control handle, the freedom of movement of which is limited by the ability of the machinery to respond. The system consists of a control station comprised of an assemblage of linkages resembling the machinery to be controlled. Associated with each movable element on both the control station and machine, and with each lever or switch on the machine, are double-acting hydraulic cylinders or rotary actuators. The three cylinders thereby associated with each particular working element and its actuation are connected hydraulically so that the control station cylinder hydraulically manipulates the cylinder that moves the lever or switch that actuates that working element on the machine. The cylinder on that working element on the machine in turn hydraulically manipulates both the control station cylinder and the cylinder that moves the lever or switch. The control station may be located either upon the machinery or at a position remote from the machinery.
