Features: This book is written in accordance with the guiding principles of the Ministry of Education for talent cultivation in higher vocational and technical education, and is based on the research project of the Ministry of Education, "Research and Practice on the Reform, Construction, and Implementation of the Teaching Content System for Mechanical Basic Courses in Higher Vocational and Technical Education." It incorporates extensive experience and insights from recent higher vocational and technical teaching practices. The book primarily introduces the fundamental concepts and theories of hydraulics and pneumatics; the structure and usage of hydraulic components, hydraulic accessories, pneumatic components, and pneumatic accessories, as well as common faults and troubleshooting methods. It also covers basic circuits of hydraulic and pneumatic systems, common faults, troubleshooting techniques, and design methods for hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
Adapting to the characteristics of higher vocational and technical education, the book emphasizes the practical application of engineering principles, particularly highlighting the physical significance of key fundamental concepts in the theoretical sections. The book focuses on hydraulics as the main thread, striving to integrate hydraulics and pneumatics closely while emphasizing the connection between theory and practice. Numerous examples are provided to demonstrate the principle of "providing only what is necessary and sufficient" in theoretical content, thereby fostering practical skills and comprehensive competence. Additionally, the book introduces new components, such as advanced cylinders.
This book is suitable for students in higher vocational and technical schools, adult vocational education, and those taking self-study exams in mechanical and mechatronics-related fields. It can also serve as a reference for engineering professionals.
