Definitions

  • the invention relates to a piston pump according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Pressure medium pumps are required for the supply of pressure medium to actuating and lubrication hydraulic systems of continuously variable transmissions or automatic transmissions. Such hydraulic systems have to work safely and quickly when the engine is idling. This requires a large pump with small leakage losses. However, such a pump delivers a great deal of oil at the final engine speed, which is not required in this operating range. This makes the control of the transmission large and complex. At high speeds, there are high power losses over longer periods in which no gear changes are made.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a pressure medium supply device for the actuating and lubricating hydraulics of transmissions or other units with which a large amount of pressure medium can be made available after a short response time. In the periods in which no adjusting movements or switching operations are carried out, there should be no or only minimal power losses.
  • a piston pump with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known from GB-PS-492 463.
  • the delivery rate should be changeable at a certain speed.
  • the change in the delivery rate is achieved in that individual cylinder-piston units are switched on or off by means of a manually operated control valve. With such a pump, an automatically regulated pressure medium supply to hydraulic systems is not possible.
  • the intake line of the pistons is shut off by the control valve. Due to the design of the control valve according to the invention, it is possible to shut off or to control the suction lines individually - or also in groups - so that the number of cylinder-piston units required to maintain the required working pressure is promoted.
  • the pistons can be pressed onto the lifting element in a certain order. This allows the pulsation to be reduced to a low value.
  • the filling pressure can be generated by any conveyor.
  • a cylinder-piston unit whose piston is held in contact with the lifting element, for example by a spring, expediently serves to generate the control pressure.
  • one cylinder-piston unit after the other is switched off via the pressure relief valve and the control valve.
  • the piston pump which is shown in the drawing as a radial piston pump, but can also be an axial piston pump, has a plurality of cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, the pistons 6 of which can be driven by a lifting element 7.
  • the lifting element 7 is arranged, for example, in the form of an eccentric on an eccentric shaft 8.
  • Each cylinder-piston unit 1, 2, 3, 4 has an inlet check valve 9 which is connected to an intake line 10.
  • each cylinder-piston unit has an outlet check valve 11, which has a Collective pressure line 12, which is connected to a pressure medium circuit with an integrated consumer 13.
  • the consumer 13 is formed, for example, by actuating or switching devices of an automatic transmission and contains known control, actuating and switching elements, so that a detailed representation of the consumer is not necessary.
  • the manifold pressure line 12 can also be divided between several consumers.
  • the pistons 6 of the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are not pressed onto the lifting element 7 by mechanical pressing means, such as, for example, compression springs or retaining clips. Rather, the pistons 6 can only be pressed against the lifting element 7 by a specific filling or control pressure.
  • the filling pressure can be generated by any pressure source, such as a small internal gear pump rotating with the eccentric shaft 8 or a memory of a separate pressure medium circuit.
  • the control pressure is generated by a cylinder-piston unit 14, the piston 15 of which is held in contact with the lifting element 7 by a compression spring 16.
  • the cylinder-piston unit sucks pressure medium from a container 18 via an inlet check valve 17 and conveys it via an outlet check valve 19 into the collecting pressure line 12.
  • the pressure medium delivered by the cylinder-piston unit 14 flows back into the line 10 via the control valve of the consumer 13, not shown. If the pressure in line 10 and thus also in line 10.1 rises to a value the level of which corresponds to a control pressure defined by a closing spring 20 of the inlet check valve 9, the inlet check valve 9 opens and the piston 6 is pressed into contact with the lifting element 7 . The cylinder-piston unit 1 thus begins to deliver.
  • the closing springs 20 of the inlet check valves 9 of the individual cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 expediently have different prestresses in order to achieve an adaptation of the delivered pressure medium flow to the pressure medium flow required by the consumer 13.
  • the preloads of the individual closing springs 20 are selected so that the pistons 6 of the individual cylinder-piston units are pressed onto the lifting element 7 one after the other in a specific sequence.
  • the pistons 6 are pressed, for example, in the order in which the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are numbered in FIG. 1. As a result, the pulsation of the respective total pressure medium flow is reduced to a minimum value.
  • a control valve 21 is arranged between the consumer 13 and the inlet check valves 9.
  • a control slide 22 of the control valve 21 is designed as a differential piston, which has a small piston collar 23 with a small piston surface 24 and a large piston collar 25 with a large piston surface 26.
  • the small piston surface 24 delimits a valve chamber 27 on one side.
  • a compression spring 28 is arranged in the valve chamber 27 and acts on the control slide 22.
  • Control grooves 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, the number of pistons 6 of the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 that can be pressed against the lifting element 7 by the control pressure, are arranged in the essentially cylindrical valve chamber 27 corresponds.
  • the suction line 10 is connected to the valve chamber 27.
  • Sub-lines 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 of the intake line 10 are connected to the control grooves 29, 30, 31, 32, 33 and connect them to the inlet check valves 9 of the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
  • a pressure relief valve 34 is connected to the suction line 10 between the consumer 13 and the control valve 21.
  • the pressure limiting valve 34 In its neutral position, which can be adjusted by a spring 35, the pressure limiting valve 34 establishes a connection from a piston chamber 36 adjoining the large piston surface 26 of the control valve 21 via a control line 37 to the container 18.
  • the pressure limiting valve 34 sets one Connection from the intake line 10 via the control line 37 to the piston chamber 36. In this switching position, the connection from the piston chamber 36 via the control line 37 to the container 18 is blocked.
  • a further, spring-loaded pressure relief valve 38 is also connected to the suction line 10, via which a connection from the suction line 10 to the container 18 can be established.
  • the cylinder-piston unit 14 sucks pressure medium from the container 18 via its inlet check valve 17 and conveys it via the outlet check valve 19 into the collective pressure line 12. Requires the consumer 13 no pressure medium under pressure, the delivery flow of the cylinder-piston unit 14 flows into the line 10. The pressure in the intake line 10 increases until it reaches the value of the filling pressure (eg 5 bar). As a result, the inlet check valves 9 open, the pistons 6 are pressed against the lifting element 7 and the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 begin to deliver.
  • the filling pressure eg 5 bar
  • the pressure in the intake line 10 continues to increase until it reaches the value of the response pressure (eg 6 bar) of the pressure relief valve 34.
  • the control slide 22 is displaced to the left in FIG. 1 and the channels 33, 32, 31, 30 and 29 are closed in succession.
  • the pressure medium supply to the inlet check valves 9 is interrupted and the pistons 6 of the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 lift off the lifting element 7.
  • the delivery rate of the pump decreases until only the delivery rate of the cylinder-piston unit 14 remains. If the pressure continues to rise, the pressure limiting valve 38 is opened, for example, at a pressure of 7 bar and the pressure medium flows into the container 18.
  • the pressure in the intake line 10 increases until the pressure limiting valve 34 is opened and establishes a connection between the intake line 10 and the piston chamber 36 the pressure acting on the large piston surface 26, the spool 22 is moved against the force of the compression spring 28 in Fig. 1 to the left and blocks the control grooves 33, 32, 31, 30, 29 and thereby the inflow of pressure medium, the pressure of which one Promotion of the cylinder-piston units enabling control pressure lies.
  • the cylinder-piston units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are switched off in an order that is opposite to the order in which they were connected.
  • the power losses of the piston pump according to the invention can be further reduced. This is possible because the piston 15 of the cylinder-piston unit 14, which in the embodiment of FIG. 1 is used to generate the control pressure, is also designed to be liftable from the lifting element.

Abstract

Une pompe à piston, en particulier une pompe à pistons radiaux, possède plusieurs unités de cylindres et de pistons (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) dont les pistons (6) sont entraînés par un élément de levage (7) et qui transportent un milieu sous pression grâce à diverses soupapes de retenue d'admission (9) à partir d'une conduite d'aspiration (10) via diverses soupapes de retenue d'évacuation (11) vers un circuit de milieu sous pression. Plusieurs pistons (6) peuvent être poussés sans mécanisme de poussée mécanique par une simple pression de commande contre l'élément de levage (7). Afin de n'obtenir un transport de la part des unités de cylindres et de pistons que lorsqu'un consommateur a besoin d'un milieu sous pression, les ressorts de fermeture (20) des soupapes de retenue d'admission (9) sont précontraints à une valeur déterminée. Si la pression de commande dépasse cette valeur déterminée, les soupapes de retenue d'admission (9) s'ouvrent, les pistons (6) sont poussés contre l'élément de levage (7) et les unités de cylindres et de pistons effectuent un transport. Comme différents consommateurs n'ont temporairement pas besoin de milieu sous pression, les unités de cylindres et de pistons ne doivent effectuer un transport que lorsqu'il existe effectivement un besoin de milieu de pression. A cet effet, une vanne-pilote (21) est disposée dans la conduite d'aspiration (10); elle ferme au moins en partie la conduite d'aspiration (10) si la pression régnant dans la conduite d'aspiration (10) dépasse la pression de commande d'une valeur prédéterminée. La vanne-pilote (21) est commandée par un limiteur de pression (34). Ces deux vannes permettent de connecter ou de déconnecter isolément ou par groupes les conduites d'aspiration (10) conduisant aux diverses soupapes de retenue d'admission (9). La pression de commande est produite de manière fonctionnelle par une unité supplémentaire de cylindre et de piston (14) dont le piston (15) est maintenu contre l'élément de levage (7) grâce à un mécanisme de poussée mécanique (16).
