- Truck cab 30 is occupied by an operator during over the road movement to a selected site.
- Operator cab 32 is occupied by the operator during operation of the boom assembly which is mounted on upper support platform 12.
- the general construction of the materiel handling vehicle 10 is similar to that disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos 3 587 886; 3 599 814; and 3 666 125 from which a more detailed description of this type vehicle may be obtained.
- FIG. 2 there is shown a schematic of a dual steering assembly constructed according to the teaching of the present invention.
- Center pin 14 rotatably supports upperstructure 12 from chassis 26.
- the pressurized hydraulic output of power steering pump 20 is connected to pressure relief valve 25.
- Pressure relief valve 25 is set to limit hydraulic pressure to 140 Kg/ cm 2 .
- the pressure regulated hydraulic fluid is fed to flow divider 24.
- Flow divider 24 divides the pressurized fluid from power steering pump 20 into two components.
- the first component from flow divider 24 is fed through the center pin 14 via connection 29 and provides the hydraulic power for steering vehicle 10 when controlled from operator cab 32.
- the other output of flow divider 24 is fed to upper steering valve 23.
- Upper steering valve 23 has hydraulic connections 27 and 28 which extend through center pin 14 to a torque motor 40.
- Steering valve 23, which can be the type as manufactured by Sheller Globe Co., model No. 79-218, is operable in response to the joy stick steering device 42 mounted in operator cab 32.
- a return line 41 connects the output of steering valve 23 to the upper reservoir 22.
- Torque motor 40 can rotate in either direction depending on the flow direction of the pressurized hydraulic fluid through the appropri ate supply line 27 or 28 in response to positioning of steering device 42 by an operator in cab 32.
- the upperstructure steering valve 23 has associated therewith a relief valve which is set to provide relief at approximately 70 Kg/cm 2 to limit the pressure of the control fluid in lines 27 and 28.
- Center pin 14 is a structure well known in the art which allows a rotatable upper member 12 to have several fluid communicating passages with a relatively stationary lower member.
- the pressurized hydraulic output from the flow divider 24 is fed through line connection 29 which extends through center pin 14.
- a hydraulically operated mechanically controlled steering gear assembly 50 is utilized for steering wheels 52 of vehicle 10.
- Steering gear assembly 50 is mounted on chassis 26.
- Steering gear assembly 50 has a mechanical output 53 connected through appropriate mechanical likages to wheels 52 to turn them in response to a mechanical input applied to input 51.
- Pressurized hydraulic fluid for operating steering gear assembly 50 can be supplied from the upperstructure power supply through connection 29.
- a tee gear box 60 as manufactured by Curtis Machine Co., Model No. 914200, is provided which has a first mechanical input 62 and a second mechanical input 64 for controlling a mechanical output 66.
- Output 66 of the tee gear box 60 is connected to the input 51 of chassis steering assembly 50.
- the mechanical output of torque motor 40 is connected to the input 62 of tee gear box 60 for steering vehicle 10 in response to positioning of steering device 42 located in operator cab 32.
- the other input 64 to tee gear box 60 is connected to steering wheel 68 which is positioned in truck cab 30.
- a chasssis power steering pump 70 is provided on chassis 26. Associated with chassis power steering pump 70 is reservoir 72 which is also supported on chassis 26. Chassis reservoir 72, power steering pump 70 and the associated truck drive (not shown) form the chassis hydraulic supply. Upper reservoir 22 and chassis reservoir 72 are connected in fluid communication by connection 74 which extends through center pin 14 to provide for a common hydraulic system. The pressurized hydraulic output of chassis steering pump 70 is connected through a suitable connection 76 to chassis steering assembly 50.
- Check valves 78 and 80 are provided in the connections of the chassis hydraulic power supply and the upperstructure hydraulic power supply, respectively, to steering gear assembly 50.
- Check valves 78 and 80 restrict the flow direction of the pressurized hydraulic fluid from upperstructure power steering pump 20 and chassis power steering pump 70 to the desired path through chassis steering gear 50.
- the output of chassis steering gear assembly 50 is conducted through a suitable connection 82 to the chassis reservoir 72.
- the disclosed dual steering control provides for an all hydraulic system utilizing one steering gear box assembly 50 which can simultaneously or individually be powered from two independent sources of hydraulic power 20 and 70. Since reservoirs 22 and 72 are interconnected, an independent check on the oil level of the chassis power supply is not required. Both the truck engine, which drives chassis power steering pump 70, and an upperstructure engine, which drives upperstructure power steering pump 20, can be running simultaneously without damage to the steering systems. The chassis power steering pump 70 will not easily run out of oil, even if a leak occurs in the chassis hydraulic system, since it can draw from the upper reservoir 22. If the chassis power steering pump 70 should fail, the pressurized hydraulic fluid for operating chassis steering assembly 50 can be obtained by running the upperstructure engine for the upperstructure power steering pump 20. The remote drive from operator cab 32 is through the chassis steering assembly 50 and does not override it.
