what is a HYDRAULIC LIFT?
818618
An Hydraulic lift, is a lift that works by using hydraulic oil to raise and lower it,an hydraulic ram is fitted to the under side of the lift. Other lifts work by means of the traction sheave driving the lift car up and down. An Hydraulic lift is not as fast as normal lift, but can take greater weight, and the other thing about an Hydraulic lift is that the lift motor room can be remote from the lift shaft unlike a normal lift.

In hydraulics (actually I think they're pneumatic), you can always develop leaks from excessive force. They are pretty sufficient at completely dampening the engine movement and vibration. There's not much to them except a sealed bladder and a spring. They're also very difficult to install. With rubber mounts, the rubber can dry-rot in about 10 years or less. Unless you pay a pretty price for the hydraulics/pneumatics, I'd stick with rubbers. Cheap parts always have problems.

Lift is nothing more than the pressure of air pushing up on the bottom of the wing.  The shape of the wing prevents the pressure on top of the wing from equalizing the pressure on the bottom.  Because the fluid moves quicker over the upper curved part of the wing, it exerts less pressure than the slower moving air beneath the wing.

Now Elevator & Lift are used for the same mechanism that is used to transport people and/or objects up and/or down between floors or levels of buildings and structures.  Here in the US, we use the word elevator and over in the UK, they use the word Lift.  The word elevator also means the airfoil on the tailplane of an aircraft that makes it ascend or descend.  Moreover the word elevator is more correct, because it refers to going up and down and lift refers to going up. However the words elevate and lift are Synonyms of each other (they share the same meaning).

JetDoc is correct in his answer.  \n\nYou should keep in mind that hydraulics uses liquids that are considered non-compressible, while pneumatics use gases which are compressible.  Hydraulics are generally used for applications that require higher pressures.  For example, hydraulics are used for elevators, bulldozer blade adjustments, and the brakes on your car.  \n\nPneumatics are more often seen in lower pressure applications such as actuators on valves and controllers.  (Although you also see pneumatic brake systems).  \n\nThe reason for the difference in applications is due to the difference in compressibility between the two media.

A guy that could fix the lift from inside the lift :)

With only pipes, no motors or whatever, you are only going to be able to use a siphon system, which will only allow you to lift the water if the eventual destination of the water is BELOW the start point.  A siphon won't lift water from the bottom of a well to the top, but in can lift water from one reservoir, over a wall, to a tank below or something like that.  \n\nAlso, bear in mind that suction of any kind can only raise water about 33 feet.  After that, the weight of the water in the pipe will be too much for the suction.  That's why the pump for a well is located at the bottom of a well, so it pushes the water up rather than pulling the water out from the top.  For this reason, a siphon can't work if it has to lift more than 33 feet.\n\nThere is another possibility - a pump based on a fluidyne Stirling engine.  Here's a link or two, you should be able to find more:\nhttp://www.fieldlines.com/story/2004/12/9/41413/0938\nhttp://www.maxpie.de/Fluidyne.htm  (in German, but has great pitures)

go to howstuffworks.com search for hydralics they've got a great article on them

There are many answers to your question. Gravity obviously. Another example is if you are try to lift a car with a lever or using a pulley to lift something.

I believe from my old chem eng days before I gave that up to become a model that a positive displacement pump is where the liquid is forced though the device by changing the volume of the pump e.g. a piston. Their operating characteristics are therefore relatively independant of pressure but they are less efficient with high volumes \n\nOther types of pumps e.g. centrifugal do not change the volume of pump or force liquid in the same way but rather alter the pressure by 'flinging' the liquid.

Its on the lift cylinder. Some are just a rubber plug.

The lever gives you a 5:1 advantage, this means that what ever you get for the hydraulic advantage, you will divide the answer by 5 because of the added mechanical advantage of the lever.\n\nThink of it like this: Without the lever, the hydraulic advantage is 1.3/.3 or 4.33:1\nThe pressure to balance on hydraulic port #1 is 500/4.33 or 115.38 lbs. and the lever makes the total needed to balance 23.08 lbs. or rounded to approx. 23 lbs.
