Tutorial Assembly 9
In this exercise, you will work in group to create an assembly of a Hydraulic Cylinder from
scratch: Draw parts, then assemble.
1. Drawing parts
*Disclaimer: The design and dimensions below are simplified for engineering graphic training
purposes. They do not reflect the ones of the actual hydraulic cylinder.
1. Lower cap
2. Top cover
3. Housing
4. Backing seal
5. Piston
6. Piston rod
7. Pistol seal
8. Piston nut
9. Rod guide
13. Barrette
2. Assembly step
1. Piston sub-assembly
- Piston & piston seal.
3. Top cap
- Top cap & backing seal
Insert Rod Guide
Now we can connect the housing and lower cap with the top cover (remember to align the two
faces with hole)
Put the piston & rod inside the housing. The only constraint here is axis coincidence, as the
piston will move along the axis. Align the faces of the fork and the cap properly.
Finally, insert the tension bolts and tension bolts nut to the four ϕ12 holes on the top cover and
lower cap.
