Double-acting hydraulic cylinder

1. A double-acting hydraulic cylinder comprising:

a first cylinder housing and a piston positioned and guided in the first cylinder housing;

a first pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber disposed in the first cylinder housing, the first pressure chamber and the second pressure chamber being separated from one another by the piston;

a first connector configured to feed a hydraulic liquid to the first pressure chamber, and a second connector configured to feed the hydraulic liquid to the second pressure chamber,

a second cylinder housing surrounding the first cylinder housing in at least one section, and

an annular holding element for holding the second cylinder housing to a cylinder bottom via one or more screws extending through the cylinder bottom;

wherein the first connector and the second connector are arranged on an end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder facing away from the second pressure chamber;

wherein the second pressure chamber can be loaded with the hydraulic liquid via the section in which the second cylinder housing surrounds the first cylinder housing; and

wherein the end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder facing away from the second pressure chamber comprises the cylinder bottom, and the cylinder bottom surrounds an end of the first cylinder housing facing away from the second pressure chamber and comprises an end of the second cylinder housing facing away from the second pressure chamber.

2. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 1 , wherein the second cylinder housing surrounds the first cylinder housing at least in a section along the longitudinal axis of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder.

3. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 1 , wherein in the first pressure chamber is a piston-side pressure chamber and wherein the second pressure chamber is a piston-rod-side pressure chamber.

4. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 1 , wherein a first sealing element is arranged between the end of the first cylinder housing and the cylinder bottom facing away from the second pressure chamber, and a second sealing element is arranged between the end of the second cylinder housing and the cylinder bottom facing away from the second pressure chamber.

5. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 4 , wherein the second connector comprises a second through opening, and the second through opening extends from a lateral surface of the cylinder bottom to the section in which the second cylinder housing surrounds the first cylinder housing.

6. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 1 , wherein the first connector and the second connector are arranged on the cylinder bottom.

7. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 6 , wherein the first connector comprises a first through opening, and the first through opening extends from a lateral surface of the cylinder bottom to the first pressure chamber.

8. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder according to claim 1 , wherein the first cylinder housing and the second cylinder housing are arranged in such a manner that an intermediate space is formed between the first cylinder housing and the second cylinder housing, and wherein the intermediate space extends from the end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder facing away from the second pressure chamber to an end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder facing away from the first pressure chamber.

9. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder according to claim 1 , wherein the double-acting hydraulic cylinder comprises a rod sleeve, wherein the rod sleeve is arranged on an end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder facing away from the first pressure chamber, and wherein the rod sleeve is constructed in such a manner that a piston rod connected to the piston is moved upon a loading of the first pressure chamber with the hydraulic liquid in a first direction of piston movement and upon a loading of the second pressure chamber with the hydraulic liquid the piston rod is moved in a second direction of piston movement opposite the first direction of piston movement.

10. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder according to claim 9 , wherein the rod sleeve has a groove, and the second pressure chamber can be loaded with the hydraulic liquid via at least one of:

the section in which the second cylinder housing surrounds the first cylinder housing; or

the groove of the rod sleeve.

11. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder according to claim 1 , wherein the first cylinder housing comprises a first cylinder tube and the second cylinder housing comprises a second cylinder tube.

12. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 11 , wherein the double-acting hydraulic cylinder comprises at least one first holding element for holding the second cylinder housing, wherein the at least one holding element is arranged at least in sections around the second cylinder housing on an outer surface of the second cylinder housing.

13. The double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 1 , wherein the first connector is constructed in such a manner to be connectable to a first connection line capable of feeding the hydraulic liquid, and the second connector is configured to be connectable to a second connection line capable of feeding hydraulic fluid.

14. A surgical table comprising the double-acting hydraulic cylinder of claim 1 .
