The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.

In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the control valve assembly of the construction machine of the present embodiment includes a first control valve 10, a first throttling structure 20, and a second throttling structure 30. Wherein the first control valve 10 comprises a first valve body 11 and a first valve spool 12. The first valve body is provided with an oil inlet 111, an oil discharge port 112, a first working oil port 113 and a second working oil port 114, and the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114 are suitable for being connected with a control cylinder 100 of the engineering machine. The first valve spool 12 is provided with an oil inlet communicating groove 13 and an oil discharge communicating groove 14, the oil inlet communicating groove 13 is adapted to communicate the oil inlet 111 with one of the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114, and the oil discharge communicating groove 14 is adapted to communicate the oil discharge port 112 with the other of the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114. The first throttling structure 20 is provided outside the first control valve 10, and the first throttling structure 20 communicates with the oil inlet 111 or the oil discharge port 112. The second throttling structure 30 is arranged in the following manner: when the first throttling structure is communicated with the oil inlet 111, the second throttling structure 30 is provided on the oil drain communication groove 14. When the second throttling structure 30 communicates with the oil drain port 112, the second throttling structure 30 is provided on the oil-intake communication groove 13.

With the technical solution of the present embodiment, through the first throttling structure 20, the oil inlet (or oil discharge) throttling amount of the first control valve 10 can be adjusted. By adjusting the position of the first spool 12 in the first valve body 11, the amount of oil discharge (or oil intake) restriction of the first control valve 10 can be adjusted by the second restriction structure 30. Therefore, the structure can independently adjust the oil inlet throttling quantity and the oil outlet throttling quantity of the first control valve 10, and can be combined randomly, so that the control flexibility of the control valve component is greatly improved. Therefore, the technical scheme of the embodiment overcomes the defect of poor control flexibility of the control valve of the engineering machine in the prior art.

It should be noted that the connection of the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114 with the control oil cylinder 100 of the engineering machine means that the control oil cylinder 100 includes a rodless cavity and a rod cavity, one of the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114 is communicated with the rodless cavity, and the other is communicated with the rod cavity, so as to control the extension and retraction of the control oil cylinder 100. In the present embodiment, as can be seen from fig. 1 and 2, the first working port 113 is communicated with the rodless chamber of the control cylinder 100, and the second working port 114 is communicated with the rod chamber of the control cylinder 100.

It should be noted that the meaning of the above-mentioned "the oil inlet communicating groove 13 is adapted to communicate the oil inlet 111 with one of the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114, and the oil discharge communicating groove 14 is adapted to communicate the oil discharge port 112 with the other of the first working oil port 113 and the second working oil port 114" is as follows: as can be seen from fig. 2, the first control valve 10 is a reversing valve, so the first spool 12 has different gear positions in the first valve body 11. The oil inlet communicating groove 13 and the oil discharge communicating groove 14 function to change a communication state between the oil inlet 111, the oil discharge port 112, the first working oil port 113, and the second working oil port 114 when the first spool 12 is in different shift positions. As can be seen from fig. 2, when the first valve spool 12 is in the left position, the oil inlet communicating groove 13 communicates the oil inlet 111 with the first working oil port 113, and the oil discharge communicating groove 14 communicates the oil discharge port 112 with the second working oil port 114, at this time, the rodless cavity of the control cylinder 100 is filled with oil, and the rod cavity is filled with oil, so that the piston rod is extended. When the first valve core 12 is in the right position, the oil inlet communicating groove 13 communicates the oil inlet 111 with the second working oil port 114, and the oil discharge communicating groove 14 communicates the oil discharge port 112 with the first working oil port 113, so that the rod cavity oil and the rodless cavity oil of the control oil cylinder 100 return at the time, and the piston rod retracts.

It should be noted that the first throttling structure 20 is disposed outside the first valve spool 12, which means that the first throttling structure 20 is not disposed on the first valve spool 12, that is, the first throttling structure 20 can independently perform a throttling control function with respect to the second throttling structure 30. Specifically, the first throttling structure 20 may be disposed at the oil inlet 111 or the oil outlet 112 of the first valve body 11, or the first throttling structure 20 is disposed outside the first control valve 10 and is communicated with the oil inlet 111 or the oil outlet 112 of the first valve body 11 through a pipeline, a channel, or the like.

The first throttle structure 20 and the second throttle structure 30 are provided in two ways. First, the first throttling structure 20 is communicated with the oil inlet 111, and at this time, the second throttling structure is disposed on the oil drain communicating groove 14. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that when the first throttling structure 20 is communicated with the oil inlet 111, the oil inlet flow rate of the first control valve 10 is regulated by the first throttling structure 20, and when the second throttling structure is provided on the oil discharge communicating groove 14, the oil discharge flow rate of the first control valve 10 is regulated by the second throttling structure 30. Alternatively, the first throttle structure 20 is communicated with the oil drain port 112, and in this case, the second throttle structure is provided on the oil-inlet communication groove 13. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that when the first throttling structure 20 is communicated with the oil drain port 112, the oil drain flow rate of the first control valve 10 is regulated by the first throttling structure 20, and when the second throttling structure is provided on the oil-inlet communicating groove 13, the oil inlet flow rate of the first control valve 10 is regulated by the second throttling structure 30. Above-mentioned two kinds of mode of setting can all play the oil feed flow and the oil extraction flow to first control valve 10 and carry out the technological effect of independent regulation.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the control valve assembly further includes a second control valve 40. The second control valve 40 includes a second valve body 41 and a second valve spool 42, a third working oil port 411 and a fourth working oil port 412 are provided on the second valve body 41, and the third working oil port 411 is communicated with the oil inlet 111 or the oil discharge port 112. The second valve core 42 is provided with a flow passing groove 43, the flow passing groove 43 is communicated with the third working oil port 411 and the fourth working oil port 412, and the first throttling structure 20 is a first throttling groove arranged on the flow passing groove 43. Specifically, as can be seen from fig. 2, the second control valve 40 is a directional control valve, and when the position of the second valve body 41 of the second valve body 42 is changed, the first throttling groove can change the flow area between the third working port 411 and the fourth working port 412, thereby achieving the throttling effect. When the third working oil port 411 is communicated with the oil inlet 111, the second control valve 40 has a throttling effect on the oil inlet flow of the first control valve 10. When the third working port 411 communicates with the oil discharge port 112, the second control valve 40 has a throttling effect on the oil discharge flow rate of the first control valve 10.

It should be noted that the first throttling structure 20 is not limited to the throttling groove structure provided on the valve core, and those skilled in the art can understand that the first throttling structure 20 can be any mechanism capable of throttling the fluid in the pipeline in the prior art, such as a valve, a throttling valve, and the like.

As shown in fig. 1, in the solution of the present embodiment, the third working oil port 411 is communicated with the oil inlet 111, and the fourth working oil port 412 is communicated with the main oil passage. Specifically, before entering the first control valve 10, the hydraulic oil in the main oil path enters the second control valve 40, and is throttled by the action of the first throttling structure 20, so as to realize the function of adjusting the oil inlet flow of the first control valve 10. Of course, as will be understood by those skilled in the art from the above description, the third working oil port 411 may also communicate with the oil discharge port 112. At this time, the oil discharged from the first control valve 10 passes through the second control valve 40, and returns to the external oil tank through the throttling function of the first throttling structure 20, thereby realizing the function of adjusting the oil discharge flow of the first control valve 10.

As shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, in the technical solution of the present embodiment, a one-way flow structure 50 is disposed between the third working oil port 411 and the oil inlet 111. Specifically, in the second control valve 40, the hydraulic oil flows from the fourth working port 412 to the third working port 411, so the one-way flow structure 50 is configured to allow the hydraulic oil to flow in one direction from the third working port 411 to the oil inlet 111, thereby preventing the hydraulic oil from flowing back. Of course. As will be understood by those skilled in the art, when the third working port 411 is communicated with the oil discharge port 112, the hydraulic oil flows from the third working port 411 to the fourth working port 412, and therefore the one-way flow structure 50 is configured to allow the hydraulic oil to flow in one direction from the oil discharge port 112 to the third working port 411.

As shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the first valve body 11 and the second valve body 41 are integrally formed. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the first valve body 11 and the second valve body 41 are connected integrally to form an integral valve body structure. The upper half space of the valve body is provided with the relevant structure and control port of the first control valve 10, and the lower half space of the valve body is provided with the relevant structure and control port of the second control valve 40. As can be seen from fig. 1, the oil inlet 111 of the first valve body 11 and the third working oil port 411 of the second valve body 41 are communicated through a pipeline.

The above-mentioned "the first valve element 11 and the second valve element 41 are integrally formed" includes both the case where they are integrally (cast) molded and the case where they are connected together by a plurality of parts by means of a fastener, an adhesive, welding, or the like.

Of course, the arrangement of the first valve body 11 and the second valve body 41 is not limited to the above, and for example, the first valve body 11 and the second valve body 41 are connected by an external pipe. In this embodiment, which is not shown, the first valve body 11 and the second valve body 41 are of a split structure, i.e., the first control valve 10 and the second control valve 40 are independently provided. When the second control valve 40 needs to throttle the oil inlet flow of the first control valve 10, the third working oil port 411 is communicated with the oil inlet 111 through a pipeline. When the second control valve 40 needs to throttle the oil discharge flow of the first control valve 10, the third working port 411 is communicated with the oil discharge port 112 through a pipeline.

As shown in fig. 1, in the solution of the present embodiment, the second throttle structure 30 is a second throttle groove provided in the oil drain communication groove 14. Specifically, when the position of the first valve body 12 in the first valve body 11 is changed, the second throttle groove can change the oil return opening area of the drain communication groove 14, and further adjust the oil return flow rate.

As shown in fig. 1, in the technical solution of this embodiment, there are two oil drainage communication grooves 14, two oil drainage communication grooves 14 are respectively disposed on two sides of the oil inlet communication groove 13, and both the two oil drainage communication grooves 14 are provided with a second throttling groove. Specifically, the two drain communication grooves 14 are used to communicate the first working port 113 with the drain port 112 and the second working port 114 with the drain port 112, respectively, when the first spool 12 is in different shift positions. Of course, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that when the second throttling structure 30 (i.e., the second throttling groove) is provided on the oil-intake communication groove 13, neither of the oil-discharge communication grooves 14 is provided with the second throttling structure 30.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in the solution of the present embodiment, the first control valve 10 and the second control valve 40 are electrically controlled directional valves. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the first control valve 10 is a three-position, four-way selector valve. The left position and the right position of the first control valve 10 are working positions (already described above and not described herein), and the middle position is a cut-off position. The second control valve 40 is a two-position two-way reversing valve, and as can be seen from fig. 2, when the second control valve 40 is in the left position, the first throttling structure 20 does not play a throttling role, and when the second control valve 40 is in the right position, the first throttling structure 20 plays a throttling role for oil inlet (or oil return). The electric control ends of the first control valve 10 and the second control valve 40 are controlled by an ECU system, so that gear shifting of the first control valve and the second control valve is controlled. Of course, the first control valve 10 and the second control valve 40 are not limited to the above-mentioned forms, and those skilled in the art can adapt and change the specific structures of the two according to the actual working requirements.

The embodiment also provides the engineering machinery, and the engineering machinery comprises the control valve assembly. Preferably, the working machine in this embodiment is an excavator, and the control valve assembly may control the movement of a boom, an arm, a bucket, and a turntable of the excavator. Of course, those skilled in the art will appreciate that other construction machines, such as cranes, rotary drilling rigs, etc., may be controlled by the control valve assembly. Meanwhile, any engineering machine driven by hydraulic pressure can be controlled by the control valve assembly.

According to the above structure, the control valve assembly of the present embodiment has the following advantages:

the structure of this embodiment controls the flow to the control cylinder through the combination of two main spools, has simplified the structure of case promptly and has shortened the length of case again, and the second spool adopts simple two-position two-way structure, and the first spool adopts simple three-position four-way structure. The structure of the embodiment can improve the control precision of the double main valve cores, the main valve cores are separately adjusted by the program control electromagnetic valve, the control flexibility is greatly improved, the electric control debugging is convenient, the trial-production times of the main valve cores are reduced, and the excavator can be controlled more finely.

It should be understood that the above examples are only for clarity of illustration and are not intended to limit the embodiments. Other variations and modifications will be apparent to persons skilled in the art in light of the above description. And are neither required nor exhaustive of all embodiments. And obvious variations or modifications therefrom are within the scope of the invention.
