Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hydraulic control device comprising on the one hand a valve movable in an axial direction inside a sealed housing filled with a fluid whose flow is at least controlled by this valve, and on the other hand, opening means making it possible to selectively obtain the opening of this movable valve when it is moved, under the effect of a first axial force of intensity greater than a first threshold, up to a open position, and to choose this open position in a range of possible positions extending in the axial direction.
- Such devices are used in particular to determine the operating range of hydraulically assisted steering systems for motor vehicles.
- assistance in operating the steering wheel is obtained by modulating the hydraulic pressure in complementary chambers delimited by a piston inside a cylinder, the operating range of the system being determined by the travel of this piston.
- This stroke is itself defined by means of stop valves, open at the end of the piston stroke thanks to the movement of the latter, and establishing between the chambers a passage of hydraulic fluid preventing any subsequent evolution of the pressure modulation in the same way.
- the known devices have the defect of requiring, for the adjustment of the open position of the movable valve, a disassembly of the box in which it is located and / or the use of adjustment means. relatively large additional.
- the object of the invention is to propose a hydraulic control device with a movable valve of simple structure, easy to manufacture, and nevertheless allowing the adjustment of the opening position of the valve from outside the housing in which she is housed.
- the device of the invention is provided with adjustable opening means comprising:
- Selective blocking means of the stop capable of selectively preventing the stop from sliding in its housing under the effect of axial forces of intensity less than a second threshold, itself greater than the first threshold.
- the locking means may for example comprise a screw capable of moving in an at least partially tapped bore opening into said housing.
- these blocking means preferably comprise a bearing bearing against the stop and a spring compressed by the screw and pressing itself on the bearing.
- the elastic means essentially consist of a spring trapped between the bottom of the housing and the axial stop.
- FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a device according to the invention, used in a system seen in partial section.
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to that of Figure 1, relating to a second embodiment of the invention.
- the figures represent a part of an assisted steering system comprising in particular a sealed housing 1 and a movable piston 2 delimiting at least one pressure chamber 3 filled with a hydraulic fluid.
- Chamber 3 is closed in sealed manner by piston 2, but a flow of fluid towards the outside of this chamber is possible, in a controlled manner, by virtue of a movable valve 4 carried by piston 2 and moving with it according to the direction of axis 5.
- the movable valve 4 comprises a valve 4a urged against a seat 4b by a spring 4c exerting a force corresponding to a first threshold.
- valve 4a By exerting on the valve 4a an axial force directed upwards (in the direction of the figures) and of intensity greater than this first threshold, to open the valve 4 to allow the fluid to flow out of bedroom 3.
- This valve is in fact obtained by the application of the valve 4a against the end 6a of a stop 6, resulting from the movement of the piston 2 downwards under the effect of an axial rce of higher intensity. at the first threshold.
- the stop 6 is slidably mounted in an axial housing 7 under the effect of a spring 8 trapped between the bottom 7a of the housing 7 and the stop 6.
- the latter is held in place in its housing by means of a screw 9 capable of moving in a bore 10 at least partially tapped, opening into the housing 7, and made watertight with respect to the outside by means of an annular seal. 11 surrounding the screw 9.
- the pressure prevailing in the housing 7 is the same as that prevailing in the chamber 3, the stop 6 thus not being subjected to any differential force capable of varying with this pressure.
- the stop 6 has a flat 6b, the length of which is at least equal to the desired length of the range for adjusting the opening position of the valve.
- the screw 9 bears directly on the flat 6b and prevents, when it is screwed, the stop 6 from sliding in the housing 7, at least as long as the axial forces at which the stop 6 is possibly subject to an intensity below a high threshold and very significantly greater than the first threshold.
- the length and stiffness of the spring 7 are chosen so that on the one hand this spring develops, whatever its normal operating position, only a force of intensity lower than the first threshold, than on the other hand when the screw 9 is unscrewed, it pushes the stop 6 upwards until the end 6a thereof is at the highest point of the adjustment range, and finally it is still in a state of elastic deformation when the end 6a of the stop is placed at the lowest point of this adjustment range.
- the adjustment of the opening position of the valve 4 can therefore be carried out very simply by the following operations: the screw 9 is unscrewed; the axial stop 6 rises under the effect of the spring 8; the valve 4 is brought, by movement of the piston 2, into the position where its opening is desired, this valve then pushing the stop 6 back into its housing without opening; finally, the screw 9 is screwed back, setting the stop at the chosen location.
- Figure 2 shows a second embodiment of the invention, in which the stop 6 is wedged by means of a pad 12 bearing against it and a spring 13 compressed by the screw 9 and biasing the pad towards the stop, this pad and this spring being at least partially housed in the threaded bore 10.
- This second embodiment which is also equivalent to the first, allows both precise and very easy adjustment of the friction force applied to the stop 6, therefore the adjustment of the threshold for which the axial forces likely to be exerted on the stop 6 with an intensity greater than this threshold cause the stop 6 to slide in its housing 7.
