METHOD FOR DETERMINING POSITION OF PISTON IN PISTON PRESSURE ACCUMULATOR BY MEANS OF INDUCTIVE SENSORS AND SUITABLY DESIGNED PISTON PRESSURE ACCUMULATOR

The invention relates to a piston accumulator (1) and a method for determining a position of a piston (5) that can be moved inside a housing (3) of the piston accumulator (1). One or more inductive sensors (15) are arranged on an exterior surface (21) of the housing (3) and configured to detect a mo...

Summary:The invention relates to a piston accumulator (1) and a method for determining a position of a piston (5) that can be moved inside a housing (3) of the piston accumulator (1). One or more inductive sensors (15) are arranged on an exterior surface (21) of the housing (3) and configured to detect a movement of the piston (5) inside the housing (3) caused by electromagnetic induction. In this way, a determination of the current position of the piston (5), which is technically simple to realise and contact-free, can be implemented and used, for example, to monitor a charge state of the piston pressure accumulator (1).
