Abstract
An annular valve seat 5 is supported on a shoulder 16 of a housing 1. A space is provided below that part of the seat 5 which sealingly engages a valve plate 4. Annular spring action of the seat 5 reduces noise on opening or closing the valve. The valve is suitable as head or foot valve for a piston pump. In an alternative construction the seat 5 is undercut to provide the space and rests on the housing 1 through a shoulder 17 projecting down from the periphery of the seat 5. <IMAGE>
Description
SPECIFICATION
Valves for controlling fluid flow
The invention concerns valves for controlling fluid flow which are suitable in particular as head valves for piston pumps.
A valve according to the invention comprises a housing, an annular valve seat supported on a shoulder in the housing, and a spring-loaded valve plate, a space being provided below that part of the seat which sealingly engages the plate.
Valves of this design may be fitted to piston pumps (axial or radial piston pumps), as head valves or even as foot valves, and to other fast operating valves. When fitted as head valves, they serve as a seal between a piston chamber and a pressure chamber to which the pressure fluid is delivered by a piston actuated by a prime mover.
Piston pumps generate a considerable amount of noise particularly if they run at a fast rate and are operated over a range of high pressures.
Protection against noise is becoming increasingly more important, and piston pumps have become a problem in this respect. The fast opening and closing of the valve produces most of the noise. In particular, noise is generated by the fast closing of the valve, due to the operating pressure and the valve spring. The valve seat is not unlike an anvil acted upon by the valve like a hammer. The sound waves created are transmitted to the pump housing which acts like a resonator.
The provision of a space below the valve seat according to the invention enables the valve to generate less noise as the valve seat acts like an annular spring. The valve seat is not supported below the sealing surface, but nearer the outside by the housing. This has the effect of preventing the sound created by the valve knocking against the valve seat from spreading to the pump housing and causing it to vibrate without being cushioned in the process. The hammering noise created by the fast closing of the valve is cushioned by the valve seat before it is transferred to the pump housing. This simple construction has the effect of achieving a considerable reduction in pump noise as well as being efficient and cheap.
This is of particular advantage on a central hydraulic pump, where great importance is attached to as little difference as possible between the noise at through-flow pressure, at operating pressure, and when starting up with cold oil.
In one embodiment of the invention, the sealing surface between the seat and the plate may be annular with the valve seat resting on a shoulder of a bore in the housing, the diameter of the bore below the valve seat being larger than the diameter of the sealing surface. Advantageously, annular grooves are provided in the surface of the valve seat, resting on the housing. In this way, a labyrinth seal is created which improves the sealing properties of the valve and reduces its sensitivity to unevennesses and foreign particles.
A guide ring may be provided for positioning the valve plate and seat. This leads to a simplification in the assembly of the valve. The valve seat is
simply placed in position without the need for
pressing it home. The ring also guides the valve
plate during opening and closing. It is of
advantage if the guide ring, if present, and the
valve seat are held in their respective positions by
a sealing screw threaded in the housing.
DRAWINGS
Figure 1 is a longitudinal section through a valve according to the invention; and
Figure 2 is a partial cut-out of another valve seat according to the invention.
With particular reference to Figure 1, the valve is a head valve of a piston pump and incorporated in a pump housing 1. It is connected to a piston chamber (not shown) via a bore 2 and to a pressure chamber (not shown) via a bore 3. The valve has a valve plate 4 and a valve seat 5. A bore 1 5 in the housing 1 accommodates the valve seat 5 in such a way that only the outer area of seat 5 rests on a shoulder 1 6 of the bore 1 5. On its upper side, the valve plate 4 is equipped with a spring 6
which is supported in a bore 7 of a sealing screw 8.
This sealing screw 8 is screwed into the pump
housing 1, using an intermediate sealing ring 9.
The top of the valve seat 5 is provided with a ring-shaped projection 10 with an obtuse wedgeshaped tip 11. The sealing surface of the valve is thus formed betweeen the valve plate 4 and tip 11. Alternatively, instead of valve seat 5, valve plate 4 may be provided with a ring-shaped
projection with obtuse wedge-shaped tip or with a
torus. On its underside, the valve seat 5 is
equipped with grooves 12 which have a sealing
effect. Situated between sealing screw 8 and
valve seat 5 is a guide ring 13, which is equipped
with bores 14 as passage for the pressure
medium. This has the effect of ensuring safe
positioning of the valve. The guide ring 13 also
ensures safe guiding of the valve plate 4.
A reduction in noise is achieved by the annular
spring design of valve seat 5 and the diameter
relationship between the sealing surface 11 and the bore 1 5. It suffices if the "deflection" of valve
seat 5 is no more than a few thousandths of a
millimetre.
As illustrated in Figure 2, the space required for
the deflection is alternatively achieved by shaping
the valve seat 5. The valve seat 5 is supported on
an annular shoulder 1 7 in the housing 1 and
suitably undercut. As in Figure 1, the annular
shoulder 1 7 may have grooves on its underside to
act as a labyrinth seal.
1. A valve for controlling fluid flow comprising a
housing, an annular valve seat supported on a
shoulder in the housing, and a spring-loaded valve
plate, a space being provided below that part of
the seat which sealingly engages the plate.
2. A valve according to claim 1 in which the
diameter of the housing below the seat is greater
than the diameter of the sealing surface between
the seat and the plate.
3. A valve according to claim 1 in which the
valve seat is provided with an annular shoulder
