[0002] An accumulator is an energy storage device in a hydraulic and pneumatic system. It converts the energy in the system into compressed energy or potential energy at an appropriate time and stores it. When the system needs it, it converts the compressed energy or potential energy back into hydraulic or pneumatic energy and releases it to replenish the system again. When the instantaneous pressure of the system increases, it can absorb this part of the energy to ensure the normal pressure of the entire system.
