Zusammenfassung:A hydraulic actuator has a lower cylinder comprising a lower cylinder extension area and a lower cylinder retraction area, an upper cylinder comprising an upper cylinder extension area and an upper cylinder retraction area, and an actuator shaft. The actuator shaft has a lower cylinder piston disposed in the lower cylinder, an upper cylinder piston disposed in the upper cylinder, a lower shaft connecting the lower cylinder piston to the upper cylinder piston, and an upper shaft extending from the upper cylinder piston and at least partially externally from the upper cylinder. At least one of fluid flow of the lower cylinder matches fluid flow of the upper cylinder and (1) an internal diameter of the lower cylinder is not equal to the an internal diameter of the upper cylinder and (2) a diameter of the lower shaft is not equal to a diameter of the upper shaft.
