Abstract
In an air servo cylinder formed by integrally combining an air cylinder, servo valves, and a controller via a manifold block, there are provided, in the manifold block, air discharge flow paths for releasing, to the outside, compressed air discharged associated with operations of the servo valves. In each of the air discharge flow paths, a silencer for reducing exhaust noise is incorporated so as not to protrude from the manifold block to the outside.
Claims19
An air servo cylinder formed by integrally connecting servo valves to an air cylinder with a manifold block therebetween, the air servo cylinder comprising:
- flow paths each connecting the air cylinder and a respective one of the servo valves;
- and air discharge flow paths each releasing, to the outside, compressed air discharged associated with operation of the respective one of the servo valves, the flow paths and the air discharge flow paths being formed within the manifold block,
- wherein a silencer for reducing exhaust noise is incorporated into each of the air discharge flow paths so as not to protrude from the manifold block to the outside.
