Hydraulic steering position locking system

U ovom završnom radu prikazani su i sustavno pojašnjeni temeljni principi hidraulike, hidrauličkog prijenosa snage te važnije komponente hidrauličkog sustava. Iako su hidraulički kormilarski uređaji bili u uporabi već početkom 20. stoljeća svoju punu primjenu u dvojnosti s elektromehaničkim sustavima započinje pedesetak godina kasnije. Primjenom žirokompasa omogućena je automatizacija upravljanja brodskim kormilarskim uređajima uvođenjem auto pilota, kao funkcionalnog navigacijskog pomagala. Usavršavanjem hidrauličkih kormilarskih uređaja, klipnih a napose rotacijskih te unaprjeđenjem kvalitete fluida, cjevovoda te izvršnih hidrauličkih elemenata omogućeno je sigurno i pouzdano upravljanje brodskim kormilarskim uređajima pri čemu je blokiranje kormila u zadanom kursu zahvalno pomagalo u oceanskoj navigaciji.In this final paper, the basic principles of hydraulics, hydraulic power transmission and more important components of the hydraulic system are presented and systematically explained. Although hydraulic steering devices were in use as early as the beginning of the 20th century, their full application in duality with electromechanical systems began some fifty years later. The application of the gyro compass enabled the automation of the control of ship's steering devices by introducing the autopilot, as a functional navigation aid. The improvement of hydraulic steering devices, piston and especially rotary and improving the quality of fluids, pipelines and executive hydraulic elements enabled safe and reliable control of marine steering devices, while blocking the rudder in a given course has gratefully helped in ocean navigation
