Abstract

A hydraulic system has a fluid path which connects two system components fluidically to one another and which comprises a hydraulic hose. It is known to form a fluid path between two components of a hydraulic system, for example between a pump and a control block, by a single hydraulic hose which is designed in accordance with the maximum volume flow and the maximum pressure. A hydraulic hose for large volume flows and high pressures is disproportionately expensive relative to a hydraulic hose for smaller volume flows and, on account of its larger internal and external diameters, has a larger minimum bending radius than a hydraulic hose for smaller volume flows. In order to provide a cost-effective and compact structure, a hydraulic system according to the disclosure has the fluid path formed by at least two hydraulic hoses arranged fluidically parallel to one another.
