A hydraulic actuator for a hydraulic servomotor (4) is disclosed. The hydraulic servomotor (4) is of a kind having at least one defined end position, and has a first chamber (5) and a second chamber (6) associated therewith. The actuator is connected to a fluid source (2) and a fluid drain (3). The
A hydraulic actuator for a hydraulic servomotor (4) is disclosed. The hydraulic servomotor (4) is of a kind having at least one defined end position, and has a first chamber (5) and a second chamber (6) associated therewith. The actuator is connected to a fluid source (2) and a fluid drain (3). The actuator comprises a first valve (7) fluidly connected between the fluid source (2) and the first chamber (5), a second valve (8) fluidly connected between the first chamber (5) and the fluid drain (3), and a third valve (9) fluidly connected between the fluid source (2) and the second chamber (6). The actuator further comprises a flow channel (10, 17), preferably comprising a flow restrictor (12, 18), in fluid communication with the second chamber (6). The valves (7, 8, 9) are such that, in the case of a power cut off, they will prevent a fluid flow out of the first chamber (5), and a fluid flow out of the second chamber (6) takes place via the flow channel (10, 17). This will cause a servomotor piston member (13) to move towards the second chamber (6), thereby moving the hydraulic servomotor (4) to an end position.

What is claimed is: 1. A hydraulic actuator for a hydraulic servomotor having a first chamber and a second chamber, the actuator being connected to a fluid source and a fluid drain, the actuator comprising: a first valve fluidly connected between the fluid source and the first chamber, said first valve being of a kind which is closed in an energized state and allows a fluid flow between the fluid source and the first chamber in a de-energized state at least in a direction from the fluid source towards the first chamber, a second valve fluidly connected between the first chamber and the fluid drain, said second valve being of a kind which, in a de-energized state, prevents a fluid flow between the first chamber and the fluid drain, a third valve fluidly connected between the fluid source and the second chamber, said third valve being of a kind which, in a de-energized state, prevents a fluid flow between the second chamber and the fluid source, at least in a direction from the second chamber towards the fluid source, and a flow channel arranged in fluid communication with the second chamber, said flow channel being arranged in such a manner that a fluid flow is allowed in a direction out of the second chamber via the flow channel. 2. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, wherein the hydraulic servomotor is of a kind having at least one defined rest position. 3. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, wherein the flow channel comprises or forms a flow restrictor. 4. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, further comprising a fourth valve fluidly connected between the second chamber and the fluid drain, said fourth valve being of a kind which, in a de-energized state, prevents a fluid flow between the second chamber and the fluid drain. 5. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 4, wherein the flow channel is fluidly connected between the second chamber and the fluid drain, and in parallel with the fourth valve. 6. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, further comprising a check valve fluidly connected between the fluid source and the second chamber, said check valve being arranged in parallel with the third valve in such a manner that a fluid flow is allowed in a direction from the second chamber towards the fluid source, and wherein the flow channel is arranged in series with or integrated with the check valve. 7. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, wherein the hydraulic servomotor comprises a moving member, said moving member having a first face area facing the first chamber and a second face area facing the second chamber. 8. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 7, wherein the moving member is provided with biasing means biasing the moving member in a direction towards the first chamber or in a direction towards the second chamber. 9. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 8, wherein the first face area is different from the second face area. 10. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, wherein at least one of the valves is an electrically operable valve. 11. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 10, wherein at least one of the valves is driven by a pulse train signal. 12. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 1, wherein the valves are controlled by means of a closed loop control of the hydraulic servomotor. 13. The hydraulic actuator according to claim 12, further comprising at least one sensor, said sensor(s) being adapted to provide an input signal to the closed loop control. 14. Use of a hydraulic actuator according to claim 1 in a hydro-mechanical transmission (HMT). 15. Use of a hydraulic actuator according to claim 1 in an electro hydraulic steering application. 16. A hydraulic actuator for a hydraulic servomotor having a first chamber and a second chamber, the actuator being connected to a fluid source and a fluid drain, the actuator comprising: a first valve fluidly connected between the fluid source and the first chamber, said first valve being of a kind which, in a de-energized state, allows a fluid flow between the fluid source and the first chamber, at least in a direction from the fluid source towards the first chamber, a second valve fluidly connected between the first chamber and the fluid drain, said second valve being of a kind which, in a de-energized state, prevents a fluid flow between the first chamber and the fluid drain, a third valve fluidly connected between the fluid source and the second chamber, said third valve being of a kind which, in a de-energized state, prevents a fluid flow between the second chamber and the fluid source, at least in a direction from the second chamber towards the fluid source, a flow channel arranged in fluid communication with the second chamber, said flow channel being arranged in such a manner that a fluid flow is allowed in a direction out of the second chamber via the flow channel, and a check valve fluidly connected between the fluid source and the second chamber, said check valve being arranged in parallel with the third valve in such a manner that a fluid flow is allowed in a direction from the second chamber towards the fluid source, and wherein the flow channel is arranged in series with or integrated with the check valve.
