Abstract
A hydraulic pressure amplifier arrangement (1) is described comprising a supply port (A1), a pressure outlet (A2) connected to the supply port via check valve means (3), an intensifier section (5) having a high pressure piston (6) in a high pressure cylinder (7), a low pressure piston (8) in a low pressure cylinder (9) and connected to the high pressure piston (6), and a control valve (12) controlling a pressure in the low pressure cylinder (9), wherein the control valve (12) comprises a hydraulically actuated valve element (13). Such a pressure amplifier arrangement should have a good operational behavior in a cost effective manner. To this end the control valve (12) comprises spring means 16 acting on the valve element (1) in a direction towards a starting position of the control valve.
