That is called a hydraulic cylinder. It converts fluid power into mechanical force to move equipment or machinery.
It is simply a piston compressor.
A twin-tube damper consists of two concentric tubes with the inner tube containing the piston and valve assembly while the outer tube acts as a reservoir for the hydraulic fluid. When the piston moves in response to vehicle suspension movements, hydraulic fluid is pushed back and forth between the two tubes through the piston's valves, controlling the rate at which the suspension moves and providing damping to control bounce and jounce.
In a steam engine, steam moves back and forth inside a cylinder due to the expansion and contraction of the steam as it is alternately admitted and then released from the cylinder. This movement drives a piston back and forth, which in turn generates mechanical energy used to power the engine.
A piston typically has an oscillatory motion within a cylinder. It moves back and forth in a linear direction, driven by the combustion process in an engine.
A common example of a machine that pushes and pulls is a hydraulic piston system. This system uses fluid pressure to generate linear motion in both directions, allowing it to push and pull objects. Other examples include engines with pistons or cylinders that move back and forth to create pushing and pulling forces.
A piston pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses a piston to move fluid through a cylinder. As the piston moves back and forth, it creates a vacuum that draws fluid in during the intake stroke and then forces it out during the discharge stroke. These pumps are known for their ability to handle high pressures and are commonly used in hydraulic systems, fuel injection, and various industrial applications. Their design allows for precise volume control and efficient fluid transfer.

a pump consisting of a piston that moves back and forth or up and down in a cylinder. The cylinder is equipped with inlet (suction) and outlet( discharge) valves. On the intake stroke, the suction valves are opened, and fluid is drawn into the cylinder. On the discharge stroke, the suction valves close, the discharge valves open, and fluid is forced out of the cylinder.

Short Answer:A hydraulic press is a means of generating mechanical advantage by using a fluid and two different sized pistons. Hydraulic presses can be used for a lot of things. In a shop it is often used to press metal pins into holes or bearings into housings so that metal parts can be made to stay together without fasteners or threads. In a lab hydraulic presses are often used to compress powders into solid cylinders or tablets. Sticks of chalk used on blackboards are made this way as well as aspirin tablets and other common products. Hydraulic presses can be run manually using the power of someone's arm or they can use an electric pump to create the necessary pressure in the hydraulic fluid.How it works:If I have a piston that is three inches in diameter sitting in a cylinder and I pump fluid in the bottom of it that piston will rise and lift whatever is above it such as a 2000 pound car. The pressure of the 2000 pound car on a three inch diameter piston produces about 261 pounds per square inch of pressure in the fluid below the piston.Piston Area = Pi*r^2 = 3.14 * 1.5 * 1.5 = 7.65 square inchesPressure = Force / Area = 2000 pounds / 7.65 square inches = 261 pounds per square inchIf I have a pump with a piston that is only 0.25 inches in diameter (area = 3.14 * 0.125^2 = 0.049 square inches) I only need to push on it with about 98 lbs to lift a 2000 lb car.This works out to about a 20:1 mechanical advantage. The downside is that for every inch I want to raise the car I have to push the small piston in about 20 inches. This is how a hydraulic jack or "bottle jack" you'd find in a garage works.A practical jack or hydraulic press would have three valves and a fluid reservoir in addition to the pump and lifting piston. The pump would push fluid through a check valve, which only allows fluid to through one way, into the lifting piston cylinder causing it to rise when the handle is pressed down. When the handle is lifted the pump would suck fluid from the reservoir through another check valve. This lets you move the pump back and forth to get 20 inches or more of motion without having a 20 inch long pump piston. The third valve would let the pressurized fluid back into the reservoir when you wanted to lower the car. The reservoir would not be pressurized.
Rotary means going around, like in a Wankel. Reciprocating means going back and forth. like in a ordinary piston engine.
A tiller arm is a tool to convert the axial motion of a piston into rotary motion of the rudder stock. Therefore, the design of the steering gears comprise a piston, which is moved by an hydraulic power unit in one axis back and forth, connected to the tiller arm. The tiller arm rotates the stock in starboard and port direction by the movement of the hydraulic piston.
A plunger pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses a plunger or piston to move fluid through a cylinder. As the plunger moves back and forth, it creates a vacuum that draws fluid in during the suction stroke and then expels it under pressure during the discharge stroke. Plunger pumps are known for their ability to handle high pressures and are often used in applications such as hydraulic systems, oil and gas extraction, and water treatment. Their design allows for precise control of flow rates and is effective for viscous or abrasive fluids.

if the foot pedal is operated with the tractor off, the hydraulic fluid can leak back out of the power steering pump. work the wheel back and forth for a minute or two to get fluid back into the steering box. also, check the hydraulic fluid level.AnswerThere is a brass connector between the hydraulic pump and the PS pump. This connector may have broken. or the end of shaft may have broken. This was the case with my L2250 DT
