Abstract

The preheating of hydraulic systems is prior art. It is generally done by operating the system without load until the prescribed minimum temperature is attained. However, in the known types of preheating circuits the operating elements (hydraulic cylinders) are not included. The invention relates to an arrangement in which the operating elements are included in the heating circuit.Appropriate circuits are provided for the various operating states of the hydraulic cylinder, i.e. "neutral", "retract piston rod" and "extend piston rod".
The provision of an additional passageway in the piston rod through which the hydraulic oil can pass into the hydraulic cylinder is an essential feature by means of which the oil can circulate without the application of pressure while the system is in the neutral operating state. By using the invention, it is possible to preheat hydraulic circuits in the neutral, non-operating state, thusavoiding damage to the operating elements, increasing the lifetime of the wear parts and guaranteeing reliable operation of the hydraulic system. The inventionis suitable in particular for use in conveyor systems operating in cold regions.

Description

-2-The invention relates to an invention for preheating hydraulic circuits, including the drive systems, in order to guarantee functional and op~,aLiolldl reliability. It is particularly suitable for the operation of hydraulic systems at low ambient temperatures, such as the operation of conveying equipment in cold 5 regions.
It is a known fact that at low ambient temperatures hydraulic systems can be got ready for operation by preheating the fluid reservoir or the hydraulic lines and by flushing hydraulic oil through the lines without the .~ tiol1 of pressure. For example, German Patent 268 044 describes a procedure and a 10 device for heating or cooling hydraulic lines; according to this procedure the system is preheated by heating up a section of the hydraulic lines by circulating hot air in a twin-chamber passageway. In this procedure, the hydraulic fluid is pumped around the system of hoses and tubing and is maintained at operating temperature. Intheilllllledià~vicinityoftheoperatingelement,e.g. ahydraulic 15 cylinder, a connecting line fitted with a short-circuit valve through which the hydraulic oil flows back is provided between the feed line and the return line.
In order to exclude the possibility of the operating element being influenced in an uncontrolled manner, the supply and return lines are each separated from the operating element by a shut-off valve. In this way, the 20 hydraulic fluid in the operating element is excluded from the heating circuit. If the ~perating element is then actuated, heated hydraulic fluid flows into the cold operating element and this leads to operational disturbances or increased wear. In extreme cases even a thermal shock, which is the most critical of all stresses, may occur. The functional disturbances caused in this manner do not 25 disappear again until these equipment elements have become thoroughly warmed up.
Operating elements which are operated relatively rarely and then only for short periods of time, are for the most part exposed to unfavourable operating conditions because at low ambient temperatures the operating elements arc 30 rarely if at all thoroughly heated.
, . , _ _ _ _ .. .. . _ . _
-3-The object of the invention is therefore to avoid these disadvantages.
According to the invention, an arrangement is provided for preheating hydraulic circuits in conveying machinery used in low-temperature environments. The purpose is to guarantee operational reliability by flushing out 5 the pipelines by circulating the oil in a non-pressurized state and by providing preheating of the oil reservoirs. In accordance with the invention, the hydraulic cylinder or hydraulic cylinders are included in the preheating circuit and for this purpose an additional transfer pas:,agc~ c~y is provided in the lifting piston rod.
This creates an additional Co11, ,eu~iul~ between the piston space and the system 10 of hydraulic lines. By means of the valves provided for the purpose, special circuits can be brought into operation to permit the non-pressurized circulationof the oil as well as to retract and extend the piston rod.
The specific hydraulic circuits for the three states provide - non-pressurized circulation - retracting piston rod and - extending piston rod.
The advantage of the invention is that when conveying machinery and other equipment is used in cold environments, the entire hydraulic system can be preheated to guarantee operational reliability and reduced wear, and as a 20 result normal operating conditions can be ,,,c,;,,L.. .,ed at all times.
An embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawing and described in more detail below. The drawing shows Fig. 1: AdidyldlllllldLiuviewofaheight-~ llct~hleboomforaconveying system, and5 Fig. 2: The circuit diagram for a simple hydraulic lifting device according to Fig. 1.
Fig. 1 depicts a boom 1 of the kind used as a discharge boom on an excavator, spreader or similar. This boom 1 can be pivoted horizontally by a
-4-drive mechanism which is not further described here and it can be pivoted vertically by the hydraulic cylinder 2. In the process, a tensile load is applied to the hydraulic cylinder 2.
The designations used for the individual operating elements depicted in5 the circuit diagram for the simple hydraulic lifting device according to Fig. 2 are the desiy"alions p,t:s.,,iL,ed for such circuits and they reveal the operating principle of the circuit to any expert familiar with this field. Consequently, it is unnecessary to provide any further detailed descriptions of these operating elements and their method of operation.
One special feature that should be mentioned is that the pressure-limiting valve VD1 is used to protect the circuit against any ~""~ell"i~l~d excess pressure, the filter F with bypass VR3 is used to purify the returning fluid 3, and the flow control valve VDr1 is used to limit the lowering rate.
It is furthermore especially important that the piston rod 4 of the 15 hydraulic cylinder 2, which bears the customary designation MY1 in the circuit diagram shown in Fig . 2, possesses a passag~ ~r. dy (also referred to as "additional transfer" passag~u;) 6 running in the longitudinal direction.
In the unpressurized circulation mode, the pump P1 pumps oil 3 from the tank T through the ' ~-;Lio,1c,l control valve VW1; P-->A through 20 passageway 6 in the piston rod 4 of the hydraulic cylinder MY1 and into the piston space 5 of the cylinder. In the process, the check valve VR2 is forced open. The oil 3 emerging at connection point A on the hydraulic cylinder MY1 flows back into tank T via the directional control valve VW2; AB-- > T, which is in its open middle setting.
In this constellation, the pre-heated hydraulic oil 3 gives off heat to the working cylinder MY1. In addition, the opening pressure of the check valve VR2 generates an additional temperature increase which has a positive effect on the overall operation.

. ` 2161619
-5-The lower function is controlled by directional control valve VW2.
In this case, the solenoid a in ' ~iLiol-al control valve VW1 is energized and the passageway P-->A; B--~T is established. At the same time, the energized solenoid a in directional control valve VW1; P--> I blocks the 5 unpressurized circulation of the oil.
The oil 3 leaving directional control valve VW2 flows into the piston space 5, which is now sealed off by the check valve VR2. As the pressure builds up, it open up the holding valve VR1 via the pressure-limiting valve VD2.The oil 3 leaving on the differential side of the hydraulic cylinder MY1 is able10 to flow back into the tank T via the passag~wdy connection in the directional control valve VW2; B-->T. The hydraulic cylinder MY1 is extended.
When the solenoids a of d;,el,Lional control valves VW1 and VW 2 are switched off, the process comes to an end. The control pressure drops up via the flow control valve VDr2 and the holding valve VR1 locks the hydraulic 15 cylinder MY1.
The raise function is controlled via ' t:-,Lio,1cl1 control valve VW2.
In this case, the solenoid b of directional control valve VW1 is energized and the passageway P~>B, A-->T is established. At the same time, the energized solenoid a of the directional control valve VW1; P-- I, T-- I blocks the 20 unpressurized circulation of the oil.
The oil 3 emerges from the passaU~.,y B of directional control valve VW2 and flows through the return valve VR1 into piston rod space 7. The oil 3 emerging on the piston side of the hydraulic cylinder MY1 is able to flow back into the tank T via the passageway A-->T in directional control valve 25 VW2. The hydraulic cylinder MY1 is retracted.
