Free Vibration Analysis of Hydraulic Quick Couplings Considering Fluid–Structure Interaction Characteristics by Yuchao Liu, Fei Ma, Xiaoguang Geng, Songyuan Wang, Zhihong Zhou, Chun Jin

“…As an important component of the automatic hydraulic quick coupling device (AHQCD) on rescue vehicles, the hydraulic quick couplings (HQCs) are used to rapidly dock hydraulic lines and transport fluid while changing and operating hydraulic working tools. However, during tool operation at rescue sites, pressure pulsations at multiple frequencies in the hydraulic lines can coincide with the natural frequencies of the HQCs, potentially causing resonance that severely affects the stability of fluid conveying and damages the connection of hydraulic lines accidentally. …”
