Definitions

  • the invention relates to a valve arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a valve arrangement is used, for example, for controlling hydraulic consumers of a mobile working machine, for example a wheel loader, a bulldozer, a telescopic forklift or a downhole loader.
  • the data sheet RD 64 284 / 06.00 of Mannesmann Rexroth AG describes a LUDV mobile control block in which the pressure medium supply to the consumers is controlled via directional control valve sections, each with a continuously adjustable directional control valve. This is carried out with a speed part formed by a metering orifice and a pressure medium flow direction to and from the consumer-determining directional part.
  • the metering orifice is assigned to a LUDV pressure compensator.
  • LUDV load pressure independent flow distribution
  • LUDV load pressure independent flow distribution
  • the invention is not limited to LUDV systems.
  • the continuously adjustable directional control valve can be adjusted from a neutral or middle position in the direction of first positions, in which, for example, a hydraulic cylinder is retracted.
  • the directional valve section can be adjusted by switching a float valve and simultaneously driving the valve spool in the direction "lower" in a floating position in which both consumer ports and the pressure port are connected to the tank port, so that, for example, a dozer blade of a bulldozer only due to its own weight on the floor rests.
  • the disadvantage of this solution is that a separate float valve is needed.
  • valve arrangement in which the directional control valve is equipped with four positions (neutral position, lifting, lowering, floating position) of a valve spool.
  • position is to be understood in each case a plurality of intermediate positions, in each of which an opening cross section which is effective in the sense of the functions neutral, lifting, lowering and floating position can be changed.
  • the DE 196 08 758 A1 discloses a solution in which a valve spool of the directional control valve in five positions (floating position, lowering, neutral position, vibration damping and extension) is adjustable, wherein in the position "vibration damping" in the direction of retraction effective annulus of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the tank.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a valve assembly in which both a rapid traverse and a floating position operation is made possible with low device complexity.
  • the valve arrangement has a continuously adjustable directional control valve with a valve slide guided in a valve bore, which can be adjusted from a spring-biased neutral position into a first direction, in which a pressure medium flow path between a consumer connection and the inlet connection and another consumer connection is opened with a drain connection.
  • a pressure medium flow path between the other consumer port and the inlet port and the first-mentioned consumer port and the drain port is turned on in a first position accordingly.
  • this is a position "extension” in which flows from the piston rod side pressure chamber of a differential cylinder pressure fluid and the piston rod downstream pressure chamber pressure fluid flows.
  • the pressure medium volume flow flowing from one consumer connection is summed to that pressure medium volume flow which flows to the other consumer connection - the directional control valve is then set in a rapid traverse position.
  • valve assembly is designed with a directional control valve, the valve spool is adjustable in five positions, the floating position is preferably achieved after passing through the rapid traverse position.
  • control of these functions by adjusting the directional control valve, so that in contrast to the above-described prior art no additional, manually or by means of a pilot control to be switched control valves or the like must be provided.
  • the inventive concept is not only in so-called LUDV directional control valves, but also in LS-way valves, where the pressures before and after a metering orifice on a pressure compensator, and in directional control valves for throttle control (6-way valves with circulation channel) applicable.
  • a residual cross section in the pressure medium flow path between the one consumer connection and the outlet connection is opened.
  • the valve spool is designed with a control edge over which an opening cross-section in Druckstoffströmungspfad between the one consumer connection and the drain port is openable in adjusting in the other direction, wherein at least one control or extension groove is formed at a distance from this control edge on the valve spool , on the adjustment in the other direction, an opening cross-section between the one consumer port and the drain port is aufêtbar and on the further adjustment of the valve spool in the direction of the rapid traverse this opening cross section is züstuerbar again. In a further adjustment in the direction of the floating position of said opening cross section is then controlled via the control edge.
  • the pressure medium connection of a consumer connection is first opened with the drain connection. This pressure medium connection is then closed during further adjustment in the direction of the rapid traverse and then opened again when moving the valve spool in the direction of its end position for adjusting the floating function on the control edge.
  • extension groove is particularly simple if this is designed as a circumferentially closed pocket on the outer circumference of the valve spool.
  • a longitudinal groove defining the aforementioned residual cross-section is hydraulically parallel to the extension groove, via which a residual cross-section in the pressure medium flow path from the one consumer connection to the outlet connection is opened when the valve slide is moved into the rapid traverse function.
  • This longitudinal groove has a smaller effective cross-section than the extension groove.
  • valve spool is biased by a centering spring assembly in its neutral position.
  • This centering spring assembly is designed with a pressure point spring, which comes into operative engagement with adjustment of the valve spool in the direction of the floating position, so that the Whypersoh can adjust this floating position only deliberately by overcoming a resistance.
  • Zentrierfederan extract usually has two the valve spool in both directions acting centering springs, one of these centering springs is supported on the pressure point spring, which acts on a larger bias voltage is, so that the pressure point spring is initially not compressed during the adjustment of the valve spool.
  • the pressure point spring is tied to a stop pin, which is biased against a housing fixed stop and on the valve slide directly or indirectly when adjusting in the direction of the floating position runs, so that the further displacement is made possible only by overcoming the Druckticianfedervorponent ,
  • the structure of the valve assembly is particularly simple when a rapid traverse channel is provided which connects when adjusting the valve spool in its rapid traverse position bypassing the directional control valve connected to the one consumer connection return line with a supply line connected to the inlet port, wherein the rapid traverse channel in the direction of the consumer connection locking check valve is provided.
  • the pressure medium can then flow away from the consumer via the rapid passage to the other pressure chamber, so that the consumer is moved at high speed.
  • the directional control valve of the valve arrangement is preferably designed as LUDV directional control valve with a directional and a speed part, the latter being formed by a metering orifice. This is followed by an individual pressure balance, which is acted upon by the pressure downstream of the metering orifice in the sense of reducing the pressure compensator opening cross-section of the highest load pressure of all driven consumers and in the sense of increasing the pressure compensator opening cross-section.

  • This comparatively large rapid traverse volume flow is then guided via the cross section opened by the feed control edge 86, the feed chamber 58 and the consumer port A to the cylinder chamber 10 of the lifting cylinder 14.
  • control edge 86 By forming the control edge 86 with control windows with respect to a full flow cross-section reduced flow cross-section is achieved that can build up in the annulus 12 such a pressure that the load does not fall uncontrollably, but the speed of the load is determined by the funded by the pump pressure medium , Via the control edge 86, the pressure decreases from the high pressure in the annular space 12 to the lower pressure in the cylinder space 10.
  • FIG. 4d This floating position (F) is in FIG. 4d shown.
  • the inlet chamber 64 is however, throttled across orifice plate control edge 90 is connected to pressure compensator output chamber 66, which in turn is open to return chamber 68.
  • the latter is connected via the floating position control edge 94 with the tank chamber 70, so that the pressure medium can flow from the inlet chamber 64 to the tank.
  • the consumer port B via the return chamber 68, the floating position control edge 94 and the tank chamber 70 is connected to the tank.
  • the other consumer port A is connected via the flow chamber 58 and thus opened via the annular groove between the coils 72, 76 connection to the tank chamber 56 also connected to the tank, so that the dozer blade in this floating position unevenness on the ground or can level due to its weight .
  • the floating position (F) can be achieved only by overcoming the bias of the pressure point spring 130, so that the operator has a clear feedback when the float position (F) is reached.
  • the stop pin 132 is taken from the end portion 128 of the valve spool 52 until the in Figure 4c right end portion of the stop pin 132 runs onto the end stop 144. Another adjustment to the right is not possible.
  • valve spool 52 is adjustable in five positions to extend the functions lift cylinder retract, rapid traverse of the lift cylinder and floating position of the lift cylinder and to allow adjustment to a neutral position.
  • valve arrangement with a continuously adjustable directional valve, the valve spool is adjustable in the direction of five positions to drive a consumer in two directions, to move in rapid traverse, operate in floating position or shut off the pressure medium connection to the consumer (neutral position).
