Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pressure relay comprising on the one hand, a supply inlet for a first pressurized fluid, an exhaust port, an outlet port and a control input and, on the other hand , inside its body, a distribution device, provided with a switching member such as a valve, which is able to connect, by internal channels and orifices, the outlet orifice towards the inlet pressure, or towards the exhaust when a pneumatic control signal is applied to said control input.
  • a pressure relay comprising on the one hand, a supply inlet for a first pressurized fluid, an exhaust port, an outlet port and a control input and, on the other hand , inside its body, a distribution device, provided with a switching member such as a valve, which is able to connect, by internal channels and orifices, the outlet orifice towards the inlet pressure, or towards the exhaust when a pneumatic control signal is applied to said control input.
  • pneumatic pressure relays capable of signaling the position of the movable member of a jack, comprising in a body a distribution device having a pressure supply inlet, an orifice, exhaust, an outlet orifice and a control input, this pressure supply inlet and these two orifices being connected to a switching chamber in which is arranged a valve capable of connecting the inlet.
  • this relay even has two separate openings which, in order to cooperate with the orifices, must have the same spacing, so that the use of this relay is limited to a particular jack in which a signal must always be delivered when the piston reaches a fixed position relative to its limit position at the end of the stroke.
  • the invention therefore proposes to provide a pressure relay, whose internal constitution responds to that which is mentioned above, hands in which measures will be taken to allow its direct association on a jack; in this case, the most advantageous benefits will be obtained when the power supply input of the relay is connected to a pressure tap orifice placed on the cylinder, or when a speed regulator must be associated with the supply of the cylinder .
  • the relay body has a bore receiving a hollow part used for direct fixing in the supply orifice, the internal channel of said hollow part communicating with the interior of the jack; an annular space being formed between the bore and the hollow part, said annular space being connected to the internal channel by lateral openings of the hollow part and to the control input by a control channel in the body and the internal channel or the annular space being connected to the supply piping.
  • the relay according to the invention has great flexibility of use and it makes it possible to apply to the power supply input of this relay a pressure delivered by a logic processing system prior to other pneumatic signals that may be necessary. to combine with those that show up in the cylinder chamber.
  • a pneumatic relay 1 visible in FIG. 1, comprises a body 2 in which are formed, on the one hand, a first bore 3 of axis XX ', intended to receive a pneumatic distribution device, generally indicated by 4 associated with a pneumatic connector 5 and, on the other hand, a second bore 7 of axis YY ', substantially perpendicular to XX' in this figure, intended to receive a part 6 of generally hollow cylindrical shape, used for direct fixing of the body in a supply port 8 ', of a cylinder body 8 placed on one end of the cylinder of the cylinder. This part 6 is axially traversed by a concentric bore allowing the passage of a fluid.
  • This bore therefore constitutes a channel 9, formed in the cylindrical part, having at a first end 60 of the part an orifice 10 external to the jack, and at a second end 61 an orifice 11, communicating with the internal volume of the jack.
  • This part 6 also has at its first end of the channel 9 an internal thread 12 and an external polygonal clamping head 13 while the second end is constituted by an extension projecting from the body and provided with an external thread 14; seals 15 and 16 are respectively placed between the head and a first bearing surface 17 of the body 2 and between a second bearing surface 18 of the body, opposite and parallel to 17, and the jack.
  • annular space 20 which is connected to the channel 9 by lateral openings of the part 6 such as 21 which end at the external surface of the portion 19.
  • a channel 22 of the body connects the second bore 7 to a bottom 23 of the first bore 3.
  • the annular space 20 may also not exist if the openings 21 are connected directly to the channel 22.
  • the dispensing device 4 comprises a skirt of revolution 24 having a first coaxial chamber 25 placed on the side of the bottom 23 and communicating with a second coaxial chamber 26 through an orifice 27; moreover, the first chamber communicates by a lateral passage 28 with a first external annular groove 29, while the second chamber communicates by a passage 30 with a second external annular groove 31 in the skirt; these two grooves being separated by an external annular rib 32.
  • a switching member 33 axially movable along XX ', and having one end 34 in the first chamber, passes through the orifice 27 to enter the second chamber through a second end 35 carrying a valve 36 capable of closing and opening the orifice 27 when this member 33 is moved to the left and respectively to the right.
  • an elastic membrane 38 is placed, which is pinched tightly on its periphery, while a second front wall 39 of the skirt, opposite the first, serves as a 'support to a plug 40 which is placed at the end 41 of the bore 3.
  • This plug which carries the pneumatic connector 5, has a channel 42 of which an outlet orifice 43 is placed opposite the valve, and one of which inlet 44 communicates with piping 45, the end of which is engaged in connector 5.
  • the grooves 29 and 31 do not communicate with each other; these grooves are connected separately by respective channels 46 and 47 placed in the body 2 and leading to the bore 3 with two external pneumatic connectors 48 respectively 49, the openings 50 and 51 of which open, like that of the connector 5, on an external surface 52 of the body opposite the second bore to receive ends of pipes not shown and comparable to 45, see also FIG. 2.
  • the distribution device 4 receives a first supply pressure Q through the piping 45 engaged in the connector 5; this pressure applying the valve 36 to the orifice 27, a pressurized fluid moves through the orifice 43, the chamber 26, the passage 30, the groove 31 and the channel 47 to end at the outlet S of the connector 49 and associated piping for use and control of a suitable receiving device.
  • this pressure is transmitted to the membrane 38 through the openings 21, the space 20 and the passage 22 representing a control input C for the device 4 and causes a deformation of this membrane, the movement of which to the right repels the switching member 33 which opens the orifice 27 and closes the orifice 43.
  • a conventional pneumatic connector 52 can be fixed on its cylindrical part 6 by screwing a hollow fixing part 53 of the connector, in the threaded region 12 of the cylindrical part 6, so that a pressurized supply fluid P of this jack circulates through channel 9, the cross section of which is large, and through channel 54 of the connector, a lateral extension 55 of which carries a pneumatic connector 56 connected to a distributor, not shown, by a pipe 57.
  • a channel 54 ′ of axis ZZ ′ is directly hollowed out in the body 2 ′ to lead to a second bore 7 ′ of axis YY ′ substantially perpendicular;
  • a hollow cylindrical fixing part 6 'of the relay similar to the previous one, but plugged at its first end 60' has a series of lateral openings 21 'to connect an internal channel 9' and the channel 54 'to one and the same annular space 20 'placed between 7' and 6 'and therefore at a control passage 22' C 'leading to a distribution device 4' similar to the previous one; as in the example in FIG.
  • the complete supply channel comprising the portions 9 ′ and 54 ′ has a large section so as not to cause pressure drops and has a first end 58 leading to the jack 8 and a second end 59 terminating by a pneumatic connector 56 ′ in a supply pipe 57 ′ in pressurized fluid P.
  • this relay When this relay operates as a pressure drop sensor relay associated with the supply of a cylinder, a pressure Q is applied continuously and the output S is connected to the exhaust E as long as the volume of the cylinder which is being decrease is subject to the pressure of the fluid escaping from the cylinder to the distributor through the auxiliary channel 9, 54; as soon as the cylinder piston has reached its extreme stroke and, as a result, said volume has reached its minimum value, the pressure in this channel is canceled and the first pressure Q is connected to the output S to provide an end signal race.
  • this relay When this relay is associated with a tapping cylinder, in order to signal that the cylinder piston has reached a certain position corresponding to a tapping orifice placed at a particular point on the cylinder, the pressure supply input Q of the relay is directly connected to this tapping hole and is therefore only supplied with pressure if the piston has passed this point. Consequently, a signal can only be delivered to the output S of the relay if the piston of the jack has not been retained by an accidental blocking before reaching the point in question.
  • the hollow cylindrical part 6 “comprises at the end 61" a conical thread 14 "capable of being engaged in a thread 8" of suitable form which is formed in the 8 “orifice of an 8" cylinder.
  • the seal between the jack and the cylindrical part is here obtained by sufficient tightening which is exerted using a tool, not shown, which cooperates with 13 "flaps placed on a portion of the cylindrical part placed between the 2 "pressure relay and 8" cylinder.
  • the upper portion 60 "of this cylindrical part therefore does not include means of cooperation with a clamping tool which makes it possible to manufacture this part 6" with thinner walls and using a metal having greater mechanical strength. weak than in the previous case.
  • the intermediate portion 19 here comprises two O-rings 15 "and 16" which are placed axially on either side of the openings 21 "and which cooperate with the cylindrical surface of the second bore 7".
  • the axial retention of the cylindrical part 6 "in the body of the relay is here provided on the one hand by the first upper end 60", wider than the second bore, and on the other hand by a circlip 62 placed around the part 7 "and under the lower surface 18" of the body.
  • the cylindrical part 6 has an axial channel 9" communicating with the lateral openings 21 "; however, the upper end of this channel here has a conical thread 12" capable of receiving a connector 52 ".
