Chapter 1 Introduction

1.1-Defination Of Hydraulic Jack:-


Page 10 of 46

Page no:10

A hydraulic jack is a device used to lift

heavy loads. The device itself is light, compact and portable, but is
capable of

exerting great force. The device pushes liquid against a piston;


pressure is built in

the jack&#39;s container. The jack is based on Pascal&#39;s law that the
pressure of a liquid

in a container is the same at all points.

1.2-Introduction:-

A hydraulic jack is a jack that uses a liquid to push against a

piston. This is based on Pascal’s Principle. The principle states that


pressure in a

closed container is the same at all points. If there are two cylinders
connected,

applying force to the smaller cylinder will result in the same amount of
pressure in

the larger cylinder. However, since the larger cylinder has more area,
the resulting

force will be greater. In other words, an increase in area leads to an


increase in

force. The greater the difference in size between the two cylinders, the
greater the

increase in the force will be. A hydraulic jack operates based on this
two cylinder

system.

1.3-Pascal’s law :-

Pressure on a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished and

acts with equal force on equal areas and at 90 degrees to the container
wall.

A fluid, such as oil, is displaced when either piston is pushed

inward. The small piston, for a given distance of movement, displaces a


smaller
amount of volume than the large piston, which is proportional to the
ratio of areas

of the heads of the pistons. Therefore, the small piston must be moved a
large

distance to get the large piston to move significantly. The distance the
large piston

will move is the distance that the small piston is moved divided by the
ratio of the

areas of the heads of the pistons. This is how energy, in the form of
work in this

case, is conserved and the Law of Conservation of Energy is satisfied.


Work is

force times distance, and since the force is increased on the larger
piston, the

distance the force is applied over must be decreased.

1.4-History:-

The Origin Of Hydraulic Jacks Can Be Dated Several Years Ago

When Richard Dudgeon, The Owner And Inventor Of Hydraulic Jacks, Started A

Machine Shop. In The Year 1851, He Was Granted A Patent For His Hydraulic

Jack. In The Year 1855, He Literally Amazed Onlookers In New York When He

Drove From His Abode To His Place Of Work In A Steam Carriage. It


Produced A

Very Weird Noise That Disturbed The Horses And So Its Usage Was Limited To

A Single Street. Richard Made A Claim That His Invention Had The Power To

Carry Near About 10 People On A Single Barrel Of Anthracite Coal At A Speed

Of 14 M.P.H. Dudgeon Deserves A Special Credit For His Innumerable


Inventions

Including The Roller Boiler Tube Expanders, Filter Press Jacks, Pulling
Jacks,

Heavy Plate Hydraulic Hole Punches And Various Kinds Of Lifting Jacks.

1.5-Features:-
The jack uses compressible fluid, which is forced into a cylinder by

a plunger. Oil is usually used for the liquid because it is


self-lubricating and has

stability compared with other liquids. When the plunger comes up, it
pulls the

liquid through a check valve suction pump. When the plunger is lowered
again, it

sends liquid through another valve into a cylinder. A ball used for
suction in the

cylinder shuts the cylinder and pressure builds up in the cylinder. The
suction

valve present in the jack opens at each draw of the plunger. The
discharge valve,

which is outside the jack, opens when oil is pushed into the cylinder.
The pressure

of the liquid enables the device to lift heavy loads.

1.6-Classification Of Jack:-

1.6.1-Mechanical jack:-

Page 12 of 46

Page no:12

Fig 1.1 Mechanical jack

Jackscrews are integral to the Scissor Jack, one of the simplest kinds
of car jacks

still used.

A mechanical jack is a device which lifts heavy equipment. The

most common form is a car jack, floor jack or garage jack which lifts
vehicles so

that maintenance can be performed. Car jacks usually use Mechanical


advantage to

allow a human to lift a vehicle by manual force alone. More powerful


jacks use

hydraulic power to provide more lift over greater distances. Mechanical


jacks are

usually rated for a maximum lifting capacity (for example, 1.5 tons or 3
tons). The
jack shown at the right is made for a modern vehicle and the notch fits
into a hard

point on a unibody. Earlier versions have a platform to lift on the


vehicles&#39; frame or

axle.

1.6.2-Hydraulic jack:-

Hydraulic jacks are typically used for shop work, rather

than as an emergency jack to be carried with the vehicle. Use of jacks


not designed

for a specific vehicle requires more than the usual care in selecting
ground

conditions, the jacking point on the vehicle, and to ensure stability


when the jack is

extended. Hydraulic jacks are often used to lift elevators in low and
medium rise

buildings.

A hydraulic jack uses a fluid, which is incompressible, that

is forced into a cylinder by a pump plunger. Oil is used since it is


self lubricating

and stable. When the plunger pulls back, it draws oil out of the
reservoir through a

suction check valve into the pump chamber. When the plunger moves
forward, it

pushes the oil through a discharge check valve into the cylinder. The
suction valve

ball is within the chamber and opens with each draw of the plunger. The
discharge

valve ball is outside the chamber and opens when the oil is pushed into the

Page 13 of 46

Page no:13

cylinder. At this point the suction ball within the chamber is forced
shut and oil

pressure builds in the cylinder.

In a bottle jack the piston is vertical and directly supports a


bearing pad that contacts the object being lifted. With a single action
piston the lift

is somewhat less than twice the collapsed height of the jack, making it
suitable

only for vehicles with a relatively high clearance. For lifting


structures such as

houses the hydraulic interconnection of multiple vertical jacks through


valves

enables the even distribution of forces while enabling close control of


the lift.

In a floor jack (aka &#39;trolley jack&#39;) a horizontal piston pushes on

the short end of a bellcrank with the long arm providing the vertical
motion to a

lifting pad, kept horizontal with a horizontal linkage. Floor jacks


usually include

castors and wheels, allowing compensation for the arc taken by the
lifting pad.

This mechanism provide a low profile when collapsed, for easy maneuvering

underneath the vehicle, while allowing considerable extension.

1.6.3- Pneumatic jack:-

A pneumatic jack is a hydraulic jack that is actuated by

compressed air - for example, air from a compressor instead of human


work. This

eliminates the need for the user to actuate the hydraulic mechanism,
saving effort

and potentially increasing speed. Sometimes, such jacks are also able to be

operated by the normal hydraulic actuation method, thereby retaining


functionality,

even if a source of compressed air is not available.

Page no:14

1.6.3- Pneumatic jack:-

Fig 1.2 Threaded rod 7&quot; fully extended


Fig 1.3 2.5 ton house jack that stands 24 inches from top to bottom fully

threaded out.

A house jack, also called a screw jack is a mechanical

device primarily used to lift houses from their foundation. A series of


jacks are

used and then wood cribbing temporarily supports the structure. This
process is

repeated until the desired height is reached. The house jack can be used
for jacking

carrying beams that have settled or for installing new structural beams.
On the top

of the jack is a cast iron circular pad that the 4&quot; × 4&quot; post
is resting on. This pad

moves independently of the house jack so that it does not turn as the acme-

threaded rod is turned up with a metal rod. This piece tilts very
slightly but not

enough to render the post dangerously out of plumb

Page 15 of 46

Page no:15

1.6.4- Strand jack:-

A strand jack is a specialized hydraulic jack that grips steel

cables often used in concert, strand jacks can lift hundreds of tons and
are used in

engineering and construction.

1.7-Working Principal:-

The hydraulic jack is a device used for lifting heavy loads by

the application of much smaller force. It is based on Pascal’s law,


which states that

intensity of pressure is transmitted equally in all directions through a


mass of fluid

at rest.

The working principle of a hydraulic jack may be explained

with the help of Fig. Consider a ram and plunger, operating in two
cylinders of

different diameters, which are interconnected at the bottom, through a


chamber,

which is filled with some liquid.

Fig 1.4 Consider a ram and plunger,

1.8-Working Of Hydraulic Jack:-

Hydraulic jacks and many other technological advancements such as

automobile brakes and dental chairs work on the basis of Pascal&#39;s


Principle, named

for Blaise Pascal, who lived in the seventeenth century. Basically, the
principle

states that the pressure in a closed container is the same at all


points. Pressure is

described mathematically by a Force divided by Area. Therefore if you


have two

Page 16 of 46

Page no:16

cylinders connected together, a small one and a large one, and apply a
small Force

to the small cylinder, this would result in a given pressure. By


Pascal&#39;s Principle,

this pressure would be the same in the larger cylinder, but since the
larger cylinder

has more area, the force emitted by the second cylinder would be
greater. This is

represented by rearranging the pressure formula P = F/A, to F = PA. The


pressure

stayed the same in the second cylinder, but Area was increased,
resulting in a

larger Force. The greater the differences in the areas of the cylinders,
the greater

the potential force output of the big cylinder. A hydraulic jack is


simply two

cylinders connected as described above.

An enclosed fluid under pressure exerts that pressure throughout its


volume and against any surface containing it. That&#39;s called
&#39;Pascal&#39;s Principle&#39;, and

allows a hydraulic lift to generate large amounts of force from the


application of a

small

Assume a small piston (one square inch area) applies a weight of 1 lbs. to

a confined hydraulic fluid. That provides a pressure of 1 lbs. per


square inch

throughout the fluid. If another larger piston with an area of 10 square


inches is in

contact with the fluid, that piston will feel a force of 1 lbs/square
inch x 10 square

inches = 10 lbs

Fig 1.5 Working Of Hydraulic Jack:-

Page 17 of 46

Page no:17

So we can apply 1 lbs. to the small piston and get 10 lbs. of force to
lift a heavy

object with the large piston. Is this &#39;getting something for


nothing&#39;? Unfortunately,

no. Just as a lever provides more force near the fulcrum in exchange for
more

distance further away, the hydraulic lift merely converts work (force x
distance) at

the smaller piston for the SAME work at the larger one. In the example,
when the

smaller piston moves a distance of 10 inches it displaces 10 cubic inch


of fluid.

That 10 cubic inch displaced at the 10 square inch piston moves it only
1 inch, so a

small force and larger distance has been exchanged for a large force
through a

smaller distance.

Hydraulic jacks have six main parts. These are the reservoir, pump,
check valve, main cylinder, piston, and release valve. The reservoir
holds hydraulic

fluid. A pump will draw the fluid up and then create pressure on the
down stroke as

it pushes the fluid through the check valve. This valve allows the fluid
to leave the

reservoir and enter the main cylinder. In the main cylinder, the piston
is forced up

as the cylinder is filled with the fluid. When it is time to release the
pressure and

allow the piston to return to its starting position, the release valve
is opened. This

allows the fluid to return to the reservoir.

1.9-Advantages:-

 Safety First:-

Hydraulic jacking System is one of the most safest mode to erect

storage tank, complete work is executed on ground level preventing risks of

accidents. For decades, there has been not a single report that proves
its credibility

in being the safest and most likely method for the storage tank
construction. The

hydraulic jack systems has now gained a lot of popularity.

 Easier Inspection:-

Page 19 of 46

Page no:19

Our efficient hydraulic jacking systems needs various

scaffolding and attachments to offer comfortable access for welding


heights.
 No Scaffolding Required:-

Welding inspectors can now perform ultrasonic as well as

several other non destructive tests on welds at ground level, it allows


easier

inspection for better quality control.

 Faster Erection:-

The shell plates are erected at ground level in place of being

installed at the height of about 30 feet or more, in order to save


construction time

required for the alignment of plates. The time and manpower needed for
lifting the

plates to the height is amputated. Construction work remains unaffected


by snow

or rain.

 Tank Erection Top Downwards Cuts Construction Time And

Cost Considerably :-

New shell plates are developed at the ground level in place of

being hauled up to about 30 feet heights or more, saving considerable


time desired

for alignment of plates. The cumulative time needed for lifting of men
and material

to the heights that is eliminated. Tank construction work stays practically

unaffected from rain or snow, hence most work is performed under the
protection

of the tank itself.

Page no:20

1.10-Applications:-

 Dismantling of old tanks

 Repair to tank foundation

 Building of field erected storage tanks

 Repair or replacement of tank bottom plate


 Increasing tank capacity by adding shell rings or courses

 Erection of other circular structures such as reactor shields in


nuclear power

stations, etc.

Chapter 2 Design of Hydraulic Jack

2.1 Hydraulic Basics:-

Hydraulics is the science of transmitting force and/or motion

through the medium of a confined liquid. In a hydraulic device, power is

transmitted by pushing on a confined liquid.Figure 1-1 shows a simple


hydraulic

device. The transfer of energy takes place because quantity of liquid is


subject to

pressure. To operate liquid-powered systems, the operator should have a

knowledge of the basic nature of liquids. This chapter covers the


properties of

liquids and how they act under different conditions.

2.1.1:- Pressure and Force.:-

Pressure is force exerted against a specific area (force

per unit area) expressed in pounds per square inch (psi). Pressure can
cause an

expansion, or resistance to compression, of a fluid that is being


squeezed. A fluid is

any liquid or gas (vapor). Force is anything that tends to produce or


modify (push
or pull) motion and is expressed in pounds a. Pressure. An example of
pressure is

the air (gas) that fills an automobile tire. As a tire is inflated, more
air is squeezed

into it than it can hold. The air inside a tire resists the squeezing by
pushing

outward on the casing of the tire. The outward push of the air is pressure.

Equal pressure throughout a confined area is a characteristic of any


pressurized

fluid.

Confined liquid is

subject to pressure

Page 23 of 46

Page no:23

Figure 2.1 Basic hydraulic devices

For example, in an inflated tire, the outward push of the air is uniform
throughout.

If it were not, a tire would be pushed into odd shapes because of its
elasticity.

There is a major difference between a gas and a liquid. Liquids are


slightly

compressible (Figure 2.1). When a confined liquid is pushed on, pressure


builds

up. The pressure is still transmitted equally throughout the container.


The fluid&#39;s

behavior makes it possible to transmit a push through pipes,

around corners, and up and down.

D2=F1*D1/F2

Where

F1 = force of the small piston, in pounds

D1 = distance the small piston moves, in

inches
D2 = distance the larger piston moves, in

inches

F2 = force of the larger piston, in pounds

Page 24 of 46

Page no:24

2.2-Basic Systems:-

The advantages of hydraulic systems over other methods of power


transmission are

• Simpler design. In most cases, a few pre-engineered components will


replace

complicated mechanical linkages.

• Flexibility. Hydraulic components can be located with considerable


flexibility.

Pipes and hoses in place of mechanical elements virtually eliminate


location

problems.

• Smoothness. Hydraulic systems are smooth and quiet in operation.


Vibration is

kept to a minimum.

• Control. Control of a wide range of speed and forces is easily possible.

• Cost. High efficiency with minimum friction loss keeps the cost of a
power

transmission at a minimum.

• Overload protection. Automatic valves guard the system against a


breakdown

from overloading.

The main disadvantage of a hydraulic system is maintaining the precision


parts

when they are exposed to bad climates and dirty atmospheres. Protection
against

rust, corrosion, dirt, oil deterioration, and other adverse environment


is very

important. The following paragraphs discuss several basic hydraulic


systems.
A- Hydraulic Jack:-

In this system a reservoir and a system of valves has been

added to Pascal&#39;s hydraulic lever to stroke a small cylinder or pump


continuously

and raise a large piston or an actuator a notch with each stroke.


Diagram A shows

an intake stroke. An outlet check valve closes by pressure under a load,


and an

inlet check valve opens so that liquid from the reservoir fills the
pumping chamber.

Diagram B shows the pump stroking downward. An inlet check valve closes by

pressure and an outlet valve opens. More liquid is pumped under a large
piston to

raise it. To lower a load, a third valve (needle valve) opens, which
opens an area

under a large piston to the reservoir. The load then pushes the piston
down and

forces the liquid into the reservoir.

Page 25 of 46

Page no:25

Figure 2-2. Hydraulic jack

B- Motor-Reversing System:-

Figure 2-2, shows a power-driven pump

operating a reversible rotary motor. A reversing valve directs fluid to


either side of

the motor and back to the reservoir. A relief valve protects the system
against

excess pressure and can bypass pump output to the reservoir, if pressure
rises too

high.

C-Open-Center System:-

In this system, a control-valve spool must be open in

the center to allow pump flow to pass through the valve and return to
the reservoir.

Page 26 of 46

Page no:26

this system in the neutral position. To operate several functions


simultaneously,

an open-center system must have the correct connections, which are


discussed

below. An open-center system is efficient on single functions but is


limited with

multiple functions.

The return from the first valve is routed to the inlet of the second, and

so on. In neutral, the oil passes through the valves in series and
returns to the

reservoir, as the arrows indicate. When a control valve is operated, the


incoming

oil is diverted to the cylinder that the valve serves. Return liquid
from the cylinder

is directed through the return line and on to the next valve. This
system is

satisfactory as long as only one valve is operating at a time. When this


happens, the

full output of the pump at full system pressure is available to that


function.

However, if more than one valve is operating, the total of the pressures
required for

each function cannot exceed the system’s relief setting.

2.3-Parts Of Hydraulic Jack:-

 Gland (End Cap)

 Piston Road

 Cylinder

 Base Plate

 Hose Pipe

2.3.1-Parts Of Cylinder:-
2.3.1.1-Cylinder Barrel:-

The cylinder barrel is mostly a seamless thick walled

forged pipe that must be machined internally. The cylinder barrel is


ground and/or

honed internally.

2.3.1.2-Cylinder Base Or Cap:-

In most hydraulic cylinders, the barrel and the

bottom portion are welded together. This can damage the inside of the
barrel if

done poorly. Therefore, some cylinder designs have a screwed or flanged

Page 27 of 46

Page no:27

connection from the cylinder end cap to the barrel. In this type the
barrel can be

disassembled and repaired.

2.3.1.3-Cylinder Head:-

The cylinder head is sometimes connected to the barrel

with a sort of a simple lock. In general, however, the connection is


screwed or

flanged. Flange connections are the best, but also the most expensive. A
flange has

to be welded to the pipe before machining. The advantage is that the


connection is

bolted and always simple to remove. For larger cylinder sizes, the
disconnection of

a screw with a diameter of 300 to 600 mm is a huge problem as well as the

alignment during mounting.

2.3.2-Piston Rod:-

The piston rod is typically a hard chrome-plated piece of cold-

rolled steel which attaches to the piston and extends from the cylinder
through the

rod-end head. In double rod-end cylinders, the actuator has a rod


extending from
both sides of the piston and out both ends of the barrel. The piston rod
connects the

hydraulic actuator to the machine component doing the work. This


connection can

be in the form of a machine thread or a mounting attachment, such as a


rod-clevis

or rod-eye. These mounting attachments can be threaded or welded to the


piston

rod or, in some cases, they are a machined part of the rod-end.

2.3.2.1:-Piston Rod Construction:-

The piston rod of an hydraulic cylinder

operates both inside and outside the barrel, and consequently both in
and out of the

hydraulic fluid and surrounding atmosphere.

2.3.2.1.1:-Metallic Coatings:-

Smooth and hard surfaces are desirable on the outer

diameter of the piston rod and slide rings for proper sealing. Corrosion
resistance is

also advantageous. A chromium layer may often be applied on the outer


surfaces

of these parts. However, chromium layers may be porous, thereby attracting

moisture and eventually causing oxidation. In harsh marine environments,


the steel

is often treated with both a nickel layer and a chromium layer. Often 40
to 150

micrometer thick layers are applied. Sometimes solid stainless steel


rods are used.

High quality stainless steel such as AISI 316 may be used for low stress

applications. Other stainless steels such as AISI 431 may also be used
where there

are higher stresses, but lower corrosion concerns.


2.3.2.1.2:-Ceramic Coatings:-

Due to shortcomings of metallic materials,

ceramic coatings were developed. Initially ceramic protection schemes


seemed

ideal, but porosity was higher than projected. Recently the corrosion
resistant semi

ceramic Lunac2+ coatings were introduced. These hard coatings are non
porous

and do not suffer from high brittleness.

2.3.2.1.3:-Length:-

Piston rods are generally available in lengths which are cut

to suit the application. As the common rods have a soft or mild steel
core, their

ends can be welded or machined for a screw thread.

2.3.2.3:-Gland (End Cap):-

The cylinder head is fitted with seals to prevent the

pressurized oil from leaking past the interface between the rod and the
head. This

area is called the rod gland. It often has another seal called a rod
wiper which

prevents contaminants from entering the cylinder when the extended rod
retracts

back into the cylinder. The rod gland also has a rod wear ring. This
wear ring acts

as a liner bearing to support the weight of the piston rod and guides it
as it passes

back and forth through the rod gland. In some cases, especially in small
hydraulic

cylinders, the rod gland and the rod wear ring are made from a single
integral

machined part.

CALCULATIONS:-

Distance the larger piston moves

D2=F1*D1/F2

Where

F1 = force of the small piston, in pounds

D1 = distance the small piston moves, in

inches

D2 = distance the larger piston moves, in

inches

F2 = force of the larger piston, in pounds

 The definition of fluid pressure is a force per unit area, or in

equation form,

P = F / A

where P = pressure (N/m 2 , psi),

F = force (N, lb f ), and

A = area (m 2 , in 2 ).

LITERATURE REVIEW

If the word hydraulics is understood to mean the use of water for the

benefit of mankind, then its practice must be considered to be even


older than

recorded history itself. Traces of irrigation canals from prehistoric


times still exist

in Egypt and Mesopotamia; the Nile is known to have been dammed at Memphis

some six thousand years ago to provide the necessary water supply, and the

Euphrates River was diverted into the Tigris even earlier for the same
purpose.

Ancient wells still in existence reach to surprisingly great depths; and


underground

aqueducts were bored considerable distances, even through bedrock. In


what is

now Pakistan, houses were provided with ceramic conduits for water
supply and

drainage some five thousand years ago; and legend tells of vast
flood-control
projects in China barely a millenium later. All of this clearly
demonstrates that

men must have begun to deal with the flow of water countless millenia
before

these times.

Though both the art and the science of hydraulics treat of such flows,

they obviously differ significantly in time and substance. Hydraulic


practice

necessarily originated as an art, for the principles involved could be


formulated

only after long experience with science in general and water in


particular. However

necessary the conduct of the art thus was to the eventual development of
the

science, it is almost exclusively with the science of hydraulics that


the present

article will deal. As a matter of fact, the subiect matter of the


traditional college

course in hydraulics -- particularly as it was taught in the not-too-


recent past --

provides a framework on which the history of the science can


conveniently be

based.

Such a course usually began with the topic of hydrostatics -- the

characteristics of liquids at rest. Instructors then proceeded to the


principle of

continuity (the conservation of fluid mass) and a form of the


work-energy principle

known as the Bernoulli theorem. In passing, note was taken of means of


measuring

velocity, pressure, and discharge, including the use of small-scale


models to

simulate flow conditions in themselves too large to test. These


principles were then

applied to the study of flow from orifices, over weirs, through closed
and open

conduits, and past immersed bodies. Simple as such matters now seem when
taught, they actually took centuries to understand. Particularly
noteworthy is the

fact that many such principles were first clarified by men like Isaac
Newton whose

interests extended far beyond hydraulics itself.
