Fluid pressure cylinder
In a fluid pressure cylinder, cylindrical bodies are connected to both ends of a cylinder tube, and latching rings are disposed detachably in interior of the cylindrical bodies. A head cover and a rod cover, which are accommodated in the cylinder tube, are fixed by the latching rings. Recesses, which are recessed diametrally inward, are provided on outer circumferential surfaces of the head cover and the rod cover, respectively. First and second fluid ports open respectively in the recesses, and a pressure fluid is supplied and discharged through the first and second fluid ports.

The fluid pressure cylinder according to claim 1 , wherein the one of the cover members comprises a circumferential wall portion extending in the axial direction and in sliding contact with an inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical body, and wherein said one of said port members is fixed to the circumferential wall portion and extends diametrically inwardly from the circumferential wall portion.
3. The fluid pressure cylinder according to claim 2 , further comprising a fitting extending through a port hole of said cylindrical body and connected to said one of said port members, whereby relative rotation between said one of the cover members and said cylindrical body is prevented.
4. A fluid pressure cylinder comprising:
a cylindrical cylinder tube including a cylinder chamber in interior thereof that is circular in cross section;
cover members formed with circular shapes in cross section and which are mounted at respective ends of the cylinder tube;
a piston disposed displaceably along the cylinder chamber;
a pair of ports disposed in port members fixed with respect to an end surface of one of the cover members, and through which a pressure fluid is supplied and discharged;
a cylindrical body which is larger in diameter than the cylinder tube, the cylindrical body abutting an outer circumferential surface of the cylinder tube at an end of the cylinder tube opposite the one of the cover members;
a latching member disposed in the end of the cylinder tube opposite the one of the cover members, the latching member being engaged with respect to the cylindrical body and the cylinder tube to latch another of the cover members in an axial direction, the latching member being constituted from a ring which is resilient in a diametric direction, and the another cover member is attachable and detachable with respect to the cylinder tube by attachment and detachment of the ring with respect to the cylinder tube; and
a passage member provided on at an outer side of the cylinder tube and defining a passage on an outer side of the cylinder tube, the passage member communicating with one of the port members and with the cylinder chamber that is disposed at the end of the cylinder tube opposite the one of the cover members having the pair of ports,
wherein the passage member extends in the axial direction from the one of the cover members to terminate at a location that is closer to the one of the cover members than is the cylindrical body, whereby the cylindrical body is able to abut an entirety of the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder tube, and
wherein the passage member does not project diametrically outward beyond an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical body.
5. The fluid pressure cylinder according to claim 4 , wherein the passage member has an arcuate shape in cross section, and provides a flow path in interior thereof due to being placed in contact with the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder tube.
6. The fluid pressure cylinder according to claim 4 , further comprising an attachment member provided on the one of the cover members, the attachment member including bolt holes that extend in directions perpendicular to a displacement direction of the piston and through which fixing bolts are inserted.
7. The fluid pressure cylinder according to claim 6 , wherein the bolt holes extend in at least two different directions.
8. The fluid pressure cylinder according to claim 6 , wherein the attachment member is fixed with respect to an attachment hole formed in the end of the one of the cover members.
9. A fluid pressure cylinder comprising:
a cylindrical cylinder tube including a cylinder chamber in interior thereof that is circular in cross section;
cover members formed with circular shapes in cross section and which are mounted at respective ends of the cylinder tube;
a piston disposed displaceably along the cylinder chamber;
a pair of ports disposed in port members fixed with respect to an end surface of one of the cover members, and through which a pressure fluid is supplied and discharged;
