Definitions
- the present invention concerns a means for setting a piston movement parameter in a piston cylinder aggregate, which comprises a setting device being affected by a set screw for fluid flow regulation.
- a device comprising the features 20 at set forth in claim 1.
- a setting device essentially comprising an indicator member, which is readable against at least one reading mark, one of these members being placed onto the thereto adapted setting device, the two members are mutually adjustable to achieve a distinct initial or zero 25 position for the adjustment and thereafter fixable, possibility of very accurate direct adjustment of a piston movement parameter in a piston cylinder aggregate is achieved, and the effect of the manufacturing tolerance minimized.
- Fig. 1 is a central section through a part of a piston cylinder aggregate with an indicating device according to the invention.
- Fig. 2a-2c is an exploded perspective view of the setting device of Fig. 1 with the associated indicator member.
- Fig. 3 shows a first embodiment of the invention in a cylinder end plate.
- Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment of the invention in a cylinder end plate.
- Fig. 1 thus shows an indicator device according to the inven- tion in connection with a cylinder end plate 7.
- An indicator member comprising an indicator ring 2 is placed onto the outer part of a set screw 1.
- the indicator ring 2 On its outward surface (not shown) which is directed away from the c * inder end plate, the indicator ring 2 is provided with indicator markings e.g. in form of numerals (2.1 - 2.5, in Fig. 2a), which are readable against a reading mark in the form of a preferably fixed index (6 in Fig. 3) , e.g. on the cylinder end plate surface, thereby indicating the rotational position of the set screw.
- a stepped reading ramp 5 is placed onto the cylinder end plate surface radially immediately outside the indicator ring 2. The hight of the steps corresponds to the pitch of the set screw, where- by an indication of the rotational, position of the set screw for an optional number of turns may be obtained by sighting or sensing with a finger.
- the piston cylinder aggregate shown in Fig. 1 is a pneumatic cylinder with speed regulation and stroke end cushioning.
- This device is the subject of the applicant's own application SE-A- 9003578-3.
- the set screw 1 affects a valve body 12, which co ⁇ operates with two throttle openings 13, 14 of which the one 13 is arranged in a particular stroke end cushioning channel 21 and the other 14 in the outlet channel 22.
- Fig. 2a - 2c show the indicator ring 2 in connection with the setting device in an exploaded perspective view, from which it is clear that the throttle openings 13, 14 are essentially rectangular. With this shape a linear relation is obtained between the piston speed and the axial displacement of the valve body 12 and thus the rotational displacement of the set screw 1.
- Adjustment for achieving a distinct initial position, here zero position is obtained as follows:
- the set screw 1 is screwed into its sleeve 9, until the valve body 12 contacts a stop collar 17, being fixed in the lower part of the sleeve 9.
- the flow through the throttle openings is now completely closed, and the speed of the piston 11 is zero.
- the indicator ring 2 is now placed onto the outer part of the set screw, while assuring that the numeral zero appears right in front of the reading index.
- the indicator ring 2 is fixed, e.g. by tightening a locking screw in a threaded hole adapted for that purpose, in a per se known manner, or by letting an applied glue harden.
- Fig. 3 shows a device similar to the one in Fig. 1 whith an indicator member which also in this case comprises an indicator ring 2 being fixed onto the outer part of a set screw 1, in connection with a cylinder end plate 7, in which a valve body 12 being fixedly connected to the set screw l is indicated with dashed lines.
- the indicator ring 2 On its outward surface the indicator ring 2 is provided with indicator numerals (2.1 -
- the scale has been completed with a stepped reading ramp 5, which in this case comprises three steps with grades 0.5; 1.0; l.5 m/s. This value is added to the value of the ring to obtain a true indication of the speed.
- Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment of the invention in connec ⁇ tion with a cylinder end plate 7.
- the indicator member comprises an indicator ring 2 with indicator numerals from 0 - 4 on its outward surface, which are read against an index in the same manner as has been described above.
- the indicator ring 2 is further provided with a desired number of annular grooves or similar markings 16 distributed over its axial length, mutual ⁇ ly spaced apart a distance corresponding to the pitch of the set screw.
- the setting device In the initial position, when the speed of the piston is zero, the setting device is screwed into its inner position, the indicator ring 2 at least with its main part being located within a cylindric recess 15 in the cylinder end plate.
- the indicator ring 2 When the set screw 1 is then screwed out to partly open the throttle openings of the setting device, the indicator ring 2 will also be displaced axially outwards, whereby the annular grooves 16 or the like markings, will appear in correspondence to one, two or more screw turns out of the recess 15. Reading is simply achieved by sighting against an index applied beside the ring or along the wall of the cylinder end plate or the valve housing.
- the adjustment to obtain a distinct initial position may, if desired, be simply completed with axial adjustment in connec ⁇ tion with the rotational adjustment.
- the set ⁇ ting device may thus be used in other kinds of piston cylinder aggregates than the shown and does not need to be contained in a cylinder end plate.
- the setting device need to comprise a valve body of the kind described in connection with the figures.
- other valve designs may come into question, e.g. needle valves.
- the indicator member does not necessarily have to be comprised of an indicator ring with outward indicator markings but may e.g. be comprised of a pointer co ⁇ operating with reading marks in the form of a fixed scale. This may be suitable particularly if the valve is a so called tap valve.
- the indicator member 2 may be manufactured from a suitable material, e.g. a synthetic material or metal and may be fixed to the set screw in a suitable manner, e.g. by a locking screw radially or axially, by glueing, soldering, stamping, shrinking, jolting or in any other way.
- the reading mark(s) may be integral with the reading ramp, which further does not have to bee stepped but may run continuously and possibly with a reading scale applied close to the indicator member.
- the indicator member may be integral with the set screw, the adjustment being achieved by applying/displacing the reading index for calibration against "the zero" of the indicator member.
- the indicator member may be comprised of a point, a line or the like on the set screw and the reading marks of a scale which is in principle shaped as the indicator ring in Fig. 4a and which is adjustable and then fixable close to the setting device.
- the reading index may be applied onto the valve housing or the cylinder end plate by casting, punching, painting, stamping or by applying a body by glueing, screwing, soldering or in any other way. In case the reading index as well as the stepped reading ramp are fixed, these members may be made integral with the cylinder end plate/valve housing.
- Both of the members may also be adjusted simultaneously, e.g. one axially and the other rotationally.
