Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus and method for maintaining a generated hydraulic pressure and more particularly to a hydraulic proportional valve for a steering control and an electric
- Fig. 8 shows an example of a conventional system in which a steering gear 90 is hydraulically operated.
- the hydraulic pressure is generated by a pressure generator 50 with a motor 51 (e.g., a pump).
- the steering gear 90 has two
- Working cylinder is built.
- a first check valve 70 and a second check valve 80 are formed, which are connected to a surge tank 60.
- the first problem mentioned above occurs when during a steering request, a wheel of the vehicle is jammed (eg, pressed against a curb) and the engine 51 must maintain the high pressure.
- the second problem mentioned above arises in the event of a system failure, e.g. if the pump does not provide steering assistance due to a power failure.
- the driver in addition to the steering force, the driver must additionally apply the force required to move the pump 50 so as to be able to steer the vehicle anyway.
- the above technical problem is solved by a device according to claim 1 and a method according to claim 14.
- the dependent claims relate to advantageous developments of the device according to claim 1.
- the present invention relates to a device which is suitable for
- the device maintaining a hydraulic pressure that is adjustable by a pressure generator.
- the device includes an inlet for coupling to the
- a pressure generator an outlet for providing the hydraulic pressure, at least a first check valve, which is designed to open a flow path from the inlet to the outlet when a first opening pressure is exceeded, and a
- the device comprises a switching device between the inlet and the outlet, wherein the
- Switching device is designed to hold the hydraulic pressure at the outlet, when a pressure generated by the pressure generator is greater than a switching pressure, and to reduce the hydraulic pressure at the outlet when a pressure generated by the pressure generator is less than the switching pressure, wherein the switching pressure is smaller than the first opening pressure.
- the inlet or outlet of the device does not necessarily have to be a separate component, but rather may also represent a connection to a pump or any branching point along the (hydraulic) flow.
- the check valve is to be construed broadly in the context of the present invention and include any device that provides the defined function, i. allows opening of the flow path when a minimum pressure is exceeded and prevents an opposite flow. Therefore, the check valve may also generally be formed as a check valve (e.g., a check valve).
- the defined, predetermined switching pressure represents only one parameter that triggers the switching behavior of the switching device. If the pressure generated is greater than the switching pressure, the switching device is closed and opened in the reverse case. Switching of the switching device can be done independently of the hydraulic pressure at the outlet (the switching pressure does not depend directly on the pressure at the outlet).
- Coupled is intended to be construed broadly and include any connection through which an energy flow can be transmitted (eg, a fluid flow of a hydraulic fluid.) It will also be understood that an arrangement of one element A between two others Elements B, C, do not necessarily mean that element A is spatially disposed between elements B and C. Instead, such arrangements should also be included where hydraulic flow is possible between elements B and C via element A. In the Figs Connections / couplings can be direct (without
- the switching device comprises a control valve with a displaceable piston.
- the piston can in a first position a
- Open flow path between the outlet and the inlet and in a second position close the flow path between the outlet and the inlet.
- the control valve may be configured to shift the piston to the first position when the pressure generated (at the inlet) is less than the switching pressure and to shift to the second position when the pressure generated (at the inlet) is greater than the switching pressure is. If the pressure generated is equal to the switching pressure, either the first position or the second position can be taken.
- control valve comprises at least a first chamber and a spring.
- the apparatus may further include a first control line connecting the first chamber to the inlet, wherein the first control line causes a pressure equalization between the first chamber and the inlet and the spring causes a bias of the piston towards the first position, so that the Switching pressure is defined by the spring.
- the pressure generator comprises a first
- the apparatus may further include another inlet for coupling to the second pressure port, another outlet for providing another hydraulic pressure, and a third check valve.
- the third check valve is designed to open a flow path from the further inlet to the further outlet when a third opening pressure is exceeded and to prevent a flow in the opposite direction.
- the switching device may also connect the further outlet and the further inlet and be designed to reduce the further hydraulic pressure at the further outlet when a pressure generated by the pressure generator at the further inlet is less than the switching pressure, wherein the switching pressure is smaller than that third opening pressure.
- the switching pressure defined here can also be selected differently from the previously defined switching pressure, so that the switching device behaves asymmetrically, ie when moving to the first position, a higher (or lower) Require switching pressure than with an opposite movement. However, it is useful in the application for a steering system to choose the two switching pressures equal.
- the device can be used to relieve the pressure generator and still maintain the hydraulic pressure at the outlet.
- the pressure generator only needs to maintain the switching pressure, which, however, is usually much smaller than a typical pressure generated by the pressure generator, which leads to the said discharge.
- the switching device comprises a second chamber and a further spring.
- the device also includes a second control line connecting the second chamber to the further inlet fluid. The second
- Control line causes a further pressure equalization between the second chamber and the further inlet.
- the further spring causes a bias of the piston in the direction of the second position, so that the switching pressure depends on the spring force.
- the piston can thus move back and forth between a first opening position (first position) and a second opening position (second position).
- the piston may have passages which communicate between the outlet and the inlet and between the further outlet and the further inlet
- the device includes an optional first throttle device along the first control line to throttle the

- Throttle device along the second control line include to effect a throttling of the further pressure equalization. These restrictions cause a
- the device may include an optional second check valve formed between the switching device and the inlet to allow flow from the switching device when a second opening pressure is exceeded, and flow in opposite directions Direction to prevent, wherein the second opening pressure is greater than the switching pressure. Therefore, the first check valve and the second check valve open only above the pressure at which the piston is already moved, to prevent the return flow from the outlet or from the further outlet.
- the device may comprise a fourth check valve formed between the switching means and the further inlet to allow flow from the switching means when a fourth opening pressure is exceeded and to prevent flow in the opposite direction.
- the fourth opening pressure may be greater than the switching pressure.
- Check valve equal to the first opening pressure of the first check valve.
- fourth opening pressure of the fourth check valve may be equal to the third opening pressure of the third check valve.
- the pressure generator is further configured to allow at an idle pressure at one of its pressure ports, a return flow through the pressure generator from the one pressure port, wherein the switching pressure is selected to be greater than the idling pressure.
- the idling pressure is
- the pressure required in a de-energized state to passively move the pressure generator to release higher pressures For example, the pressure required in a de-energized state to passively move the pressure generator to release higher pressures.
- the present invention also relates to a hydraulic system with a
- a pressure generator for generating a hydraulic pressure at a pressure port and with one of the devices described above.
- the pressure generator may comprise a hydraulic gear pump and the outlet and further outlet of the device may for example be coupled to a steering gear.
- Hydraulic gear pump can also be operated in reverse directions.
- the hydraulic system with the device may be both an open hydraulic system and a closed hydraulic system.
- the present invention also relates to a power steering with a
- the present invention also relates to a vehicle with the power steering.
- the present invention also relates to a method for
- Maintaining a hydraulic pressure that is adjustable by a pressure generator comprises the steps of: opening a flow path from the pressure generator to an outlet when a first opening pressure is exceeded, thereby establishing the hydraulic pressure at the outlet; Preventing a flow in an opposite direction; Holding the hydraulic pressure as long as a pressure generated by the pressure generator is greater than a switching pressure; and decreasing the hydraulic pressure when a pressure generated by the pressure generator is less than the switching pressure, wherein the switching pressure is smaller than the first opening pressure.
- the present invention thus achieves the above-mentioned technical object by a switching device (e.g., control valve) for open or closed
- Hydraulic system wherein the work spaces are controlled by an exemplary gear pump. After reaching a target pressure - at permanently high
- Gear pump is made so that the driver in a system failure does not have to rotate the gear pump with the engine together.

- the switching device 110 can reduce the hydraulic pressure p at the outlet 120 when a pressure pO generated by the pressure generator 50 is smaller than the switching pressure pS.
- the switching pressure pS is smaller than the first opening pressure p1.
- the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 can be integrated in an open hydraulic system or in a closed system (see FIGS. 2 to 6). The invention should not be limited to one of the two systems. Rather, the aspects described below can also be used in an open

- Fig. 2 shows further details of an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the device 100 in an exemplary hydraulic steering with the
- the steering gear 90 includes a first power cylinder 91 and a second power cylinder 92, which are separated from each other by a power piston 93.
- the hydraulic system shown differs by the additional components formed in the device 100 (see dashed box), which in the embodiment shown includes a first in addition to the inlet 1 10 and the outlet 120 further inlet 112 and another outlet 122 has. The first
- Working cylinder 91 is, for example, with the outlet 120 and the second
- Working cylinder 92 connected to the other outlet 122, so that the working piston 93 is movable by a hydraulic pressure at the outlet 120 in one direction and is movable by a hydraulic pressure at the other outlet 122 in the opposite direction, so as to steer the vehicle.
- the pressure generator 50 may in turn be a gear pump and include, for example, a first and a second pressure port to which the device 100 is coupled with its inlet 110 and further inlet 112.
- the overall system may be a fully encapsulated hydraulic system, such that the inlets 110, 112 and outlets 120, 122 may be defined, for example, as specific points along the hydraulic flow.
- the device 100 comprises a first
- Throttling devices 151, 152 These components are fluidly disposed between the inlet 110, the outlet 120, the further inlet 112 and the further outlet 122.
- the inlet 1 10 of the device 100 couples to the first pressure port and the further inlet 1 12 to the second pressure port of the pressure generator 50, so that the pressure generator 50 provides a controllable pressure pO at the inlet 1 10 and / or the other inlet 1 12.
- the first check valve 131 is arranged between the inlet 110 and the outlet 120. Between the further inlet 1 12 and the further outlet 122, the third check valve 133 is arranged.
- the switching device 140 connects the outlet 120 with the inlet 1 10 as well as the further outlet 122 with the further inlet 1 12, wherein between the switching device 140 and the inlet 1 10, the second check valve 132 and between the switching device 140 and the further inlet 112th the fourth check valve 134 is formed.
- the first check valve 131 provides a flow path from the inlet 110 to the outlet 120 when at the inlet 110, a pressure above a first
- Opening pressure p1 is applied (and prevents an opposite flow).
- the third check valve 133 provides a flow path from the further inlet 12 to the further outlet 122 when a pressure above the third opening pressure p3 is applied to the further inlet 112 and prevents reverse flow.
- the second check valve 132 provides a flow path from the
- Switching device 140 to the inlet 1 10 ready when the switching device 140, a pressure above a second opening pressure p2 is applied (and prevents an opposite flow).
- the fourth check valve 134 provides a flow path from the switching device 140 to the further inlet 1 12, when of the
- a pressure above a fourth opening pressure p4 is applied (and prevents an opposite flow).
- the second opening pressure p2 can
- the third opening pressure p3 may be equal to the fourth opening pressure p4 (eg, about 8 bar).
- the switching device 140 comprises a movable piston 142, a first chamber 141 and a second chamber 145, wherein in the direction of movement of the movable piston 142, the first chamber 141 is disposed opposite to the second chamber 145.
- the piston 142 changes the available one by shifting
- the switching device 140 comprises a spring 144 in the second chamber 145 and a further spring 143 in the first chamber 141.
- the spring 144 exerts a bias on the displaceable piston 142, the piston 142 in the first chamber 141 pushes.
- the further spring 143 exerts a bias on the piston 142, which pushes the piston 142 into the second chamber 145.
- the piston 142 in the shifting device 140 can be displaced between the following positions: a first opening position, a second opening position, and a center position. In the first open position, the switching device 140 only opens the flow path from the outlet 120 to the inlet 1 10.
- the switching device 140 In the second open position, the switching device 140 only opens the flow path from the further outlet 122 to the further inlet 112 and in the middle position both of these flow paths are mentioned open.
- the first open position represents a first stop position in which the piston 142 is leftmost, while the second open position represents a second stop position in which the piston 142 is rightmost.
- the outlet 120 in the center position, may communicate with the further outlet 122 via a channel 148 in the
- Switching device 140 may be connected. In the case of a further center position, the two said flow paths are open, but the outlet 120 is not yet connected to the further outlet 122 (this situation is illustrated, for example, in FIG. 5 below).
- displaceable pistons 142 along its circumference for example two
- a switching pressure pS in the first chamber 141 or in the second chamber 145 is required, which may for example be the same size for both directions. However, this is not necessarily the case.
- a first switching pressure pS1 may be required to switch the switching device 140 to the first open position
- a second switching pressure pS2 (other than the first switching pressure pS1) may be required to switch the switching device to the second open position.
- this is an advantage (to achieve a symmetrical handling of the steering).
- an asymmetrical design can be quite useful (because gravity can still support).
- the apparatus 100 includes a first control line 158 from the inlet 110 to the first chamber 141 and a second control line 159 from the further inlet 112 to the second chamber 145.
- first control line 158 moves along the first control line 158 Pressure increases and above the switching pressure pS of the switching device 140, this causes the piston 142 leaves the rest position and moves to the second open position (in Fig. 2 to the right).
- the pressure in the second control line 159 increases so much that the pressure in the second chamber 145 is above the switching pressure pS, the piston 142 moves to the first open position (to the left in FIG. 2).
- the movable piston 142 may fluid flow from the outlet 120 to the inlet 1 10 and / or from the further outlet 122 to the further inlet 1 12 depending on the pressure conditions in the first control line 158th and / or in the second control line 159 allow.
- these fluid flows are only possible if there is a pressure above the second opening pressure p2 for the second check valve 132 or above the fourth opening pressure p4 of the fourth check valve 134 along these flow paths.
- the first opening position can be achieved, for example, in that the displaceable piston 142 is pressed into the first chamber 141 against the spring force of the further spring 143.
- the second opening position can be achieved, for example, in that the displaceable piston 142 is pressed into the first chamber 141 against the spring force of the further spring 143.
- one of the two springs can be made stronger, but only act up to a stop, so that the opposite, weaker spring the piston 142 of the
- the further spring 143 has an exemplary double spring force, as the spring 144.
- the further spring 143 does not act between a housing part of
- Switching device 140 (or another stopper point) and the displaceable piston 142 itself, but acts instead, for example on a perforated disc 146, through the opening of which a part of the displaceable piston 142 extends. Since the perforated disk 146 has a larger outer diameter than the displaceable piston 142 and the first chamber 141 also has a larger diameter than the displaceable piston 142 or its guide, the perforated disk 146 can only be displaced within the first chamber 141. The stronger trained further spring 143 therefore pushes the perforated disc 146 and thus also the displaceable piston 142 to a maximum of the end of the first chamber 141.
- the displaceable piston 142 may have a stepped widening, to which the
- Perforated disc 146 abuts to move it to this point.
- a further displacement of the displaceable piston 142 can thus not be effected by the further spring 143. Instead, on the piston 142, as it has moved further into the opposite second chamber 145, only the spring force of the spring 144 acts, thus pushing the displaceable piston 142 back against the orifice plate 146.
- first throttle device 151 is formed along the first control line 158 .
- second throttle device 152 may optionally be formed along the second control line 159.
- These throttle devices 151, 152 throttle the pressure compensation and represent a damping. They thus prevent a disturbing oscillation of the displaceable piston 142, for example during a
- Throttle devices 151, 152 are correspondingly adapted to the switching pressure pS.
- the expansion vessel 60 is designed in size so that it can absorb on heating excess oil (hydraulic fluid) via the leak or drain line 62 from the pressure generator. There, for example, a pressure of 5 bar prevail in the idle state.
- the two other check valves 70, 80 have
- Fig. 3 shows a pressure build-up due to a steering request.
- the internal system pressure of the exemplary closed hydraulic system is, for example, 5 bar. If the pressure generator 50 for the steering request at the inlet 1 10 provides the device with a pressure which is greater than the switching pressure pS (eg 7 bar), the pressure in the first control line 158 and thus in the first chamber 141 also increases above the switching pressure pS. As a result of the pressurization from the left end side, there is a displacement of the displaceable piston 142 against the force of the spring 144 to the right, so that the second opening position is taken. Although in this second opening position, the further inlet 1 12 is connected to the further outlet 122, but not the inlet 110 with the outlet 120.
- the switching pressure pS eg 7 bar
- FIG. 4 shows the situation when the pressure from the pressure generator 50 rises so far that the hydraulic fluid passes through the first check valve 131 into the first working cylinder 91 of the steering gear 90.
- the pressure generator 50 at the inlet 1 10 build a pressure of 108 bar. This pressure of 108 bar causes a pressure of about 100 bar in the first working cylinder 91 of the steering gear 90 builds up when the first opening pressure p1 from the first
- Check valve 131 for example, 8 bar.
- the displaceable piston 42 remains in the second open position, so that also no return flow from the outlet 120 through the switching device 140 back to the pressure generator 50 is possible.
- the increased pressure (for example, 100 bar) in the first working cylinder 91 of the steering gear 90 exerts a pressure on the working piston 93, which is
- the pressure generator 50 can be relieved during the holding of such a desired pressure.
- the pressure generator 50 can be relieved during the holding of such a desired pressure.
- the piston 142 remains on right stop (second open position) and thus prevents a pressure reduction in the working cylinder 91 of the exemplary steering gear 90, since the flow path between the outlet 120 and the inlet 110 (still) remains closed.
- This is particularly advantageous when the pressure in the first working cylinder 91 is to be maintained for a long time (for example, when the wheel hit encounters a curb or even during long turns), so that the steering effect is still ensured, but the pressure generator 50 is not charged becomes.
- the pressure reduction at the inlet 1 10 can, for example, via leakage rates of the
- Pressure generator 50 take place, this pressure drop is often slow at the pressure ports.
- the switching pressure pS can be selected such that it is able to turn back the motor or the pump 50 solely by the existing pressure at the pressure port and to establish a pressure equalization on both sides of the pressure generator 50.
- FIG. 5 shows a procedure for active pressure reduction in the working cylinder 91 (for example to 80 bar).
- the pressure at the outlet of the pressure generator 50 can be further reduced in that the pressure generator 50 is briefly operated in an opposite direction and thus the pressure in the first chamber 141 drops.
- the piston 142 moves towards the center position and thus opens the flow path from the outlet 120 to the inlet 110.
- This leads to an increase in pressure at the inlet 1 10, which in turn on the the first control line 158 increases the pressure in the first chamber 141 and in turn shifts the displaceable piston 142 to the second open position.
- the pressure at the inlet 110 remains almost constant throughout the pressure reduction phase to the value of
- Electric motor (not shown), falls in this phase only a minimal power loss.
- FIG. 6 shows the mode of operation of the device 100 during a steering movement in the opposite steering direction, in which the pressure generator 50 generates an increased pressure at the further inlet 12. In this case, when exceeding the pressure generator 50
- Switching pressure pS at the other inlet 112 of the displaceable piston 142 is moved to the first opening position. In the first opening position, the fluid flow from the further outlet 122 to the further inlet 1 12 is interrupted. In addition, when the third opening pressure p3 is exceeded at the further inlet 12, the third check valve 133 is opened and hydraulic fluid passes through the third
- the device 100 may be formed mirror-symmetrically, so that even for a steering in the opposite direction, the functions described above
- Fig. 7 shows a flow chart for a method for maintaining a hydraulic pressure p, which is adjustable by a pressure generator.
- the method comprises the steps of: opening S1 10 a flow path from the pressure generator 50 to an outlet 120 when a first opening pressure p1 is exceeded to thereby establish the hydraulic pressure p at the outlet 120; Preventing S120 of a flow in an opposite direction; Hold S130 of the hydraulic pressure p as long as a pressure pO generated by the pressure generator 50 is greater than one
- Switching pressure pS and decreasing S140 of the hydraulic pressure p when a pressure pO generated by the pressure generator 50 is smaller than the switching pressure pS, the switching pressure pS being smaller than the first opening pressure p1.
- the exemplary hydraulic gear pump 50 generates the hydraulic pressure for the steering gear 90.
- the position of the piston 142 is controlled via the system pressure, wherein corresponding chambers 141, 145 can be actuated or moved from both end faces of the piston 142 by the gear pump 50.
- the pump pressure may be released, maintaining the pressure at the outlet 120 (or the further outlet 122).
- the piston 142 returns to its center position as a result of the spring forces of the springs 143, 144 and the gear pump 50 is unlocked (backup mode).
- the channel 148 then connects the outlet 120 with the further outlet 122, so that likewise the working cylinders 91, 92 of the steering gear 90 are connected to one another. This has the consequence that steering movements only lead to a displacement of the working piston 93 within the steering gear 90, but not have to move the pressure generator 50. Rather, the
- Pressure generator 50 remain in the rest position.
- the resulting pressure at the inlet 110 or at the further inlet 112 during the pressure reduction phase should in any case be higher than the pressure for driving the exemplary gear pump 50 in the de-energized state, so that the switching pressure pS automatically causes the pump 50 moves back by itself.
- the spring 144 has a spring force of 10 N and the further spring 143 has a force of 20 N, these being merely examples. In other embodiments, the springs provide other forces.
- the existing control valve (switching device 140) thus serves at the same time as a backup valve, which enables the pump device 50 to be disconnected in the backup mode (for example in the event of a power failure).
- the device, together with the hydraulic steering system may be a fully enclosed hydraulic system with integrated control valve 140, which may be used for both closed and open hydraulic systems.
- embodiments of the present invention allow for both closed and open hydraulic systems a complete relief of the pump / motor unit after reaching a target pressure. To obtain and reduce the pressure, no pump pressure is required according to embodiments.
- the pump pressure does not have to be maintained permanently, there is the advantage that the engine power loss of the pump 50 can be reduced (for example, halved). In addition, almost no power dissipation during pressure maintenance or during a slow pressure reduction by the engine must be provided or intercepted.
- the pressure generator 50 is only for
- a slide valve for example, a slide valve or
- Proportional valve can be used, but not a solenoid valve.
- a solenoid valve generally can not provide the defined functions.
- Exemplary embodiments can be used for open hydraulic systems and offer advantages in particular when a high hydraulic pressure is to be kept constant over a longer period of time (for example in crane installations, lifting installations,
- Another advantage is that the control of the system is completely hydraulic and no electrical control is required.
- the pump may be designed to operate in both directions and, depending on which side pressure is required, the pressure is built up on one side and degraded on the other side.
- the oil is merely pumped away from a tank and is not pumped back and forth between two sections of the system.
