Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for successively producing hydraulic fluid flows of staggered values, intended for a circuit of use, for example a hydraulic cylinder, requiring fluid flows which vary rapidly.
- the operating circuit can be supplied with hydraulic fluid by a centrifugal pump, capable of producing flow rates of hydraulic fluid capable of varying rapidly between staggered values.
- a centrifugal pump capable of producing flow rates of hydraulic fluid capable of varying rapidly between staggered values.
- the pump operates at high speed, and produces a low flow rate, a large fraction of the driving energy is dissipated by heating the pump and the hydraulic fluid; in this case, not only is the efficiency of the installation very poor, but this results in wear of the pump and its drive device.
- French Patent No. 2,247,112 (POCLAIN) describes a device for simultaneously sending flow rates of hydraulic fluid, in two separate operating circuits, by two pumps, which are driven by a single motor, one of which has variable displacement; when the priority needs in hydraulic fluid of one of the two use circuits increase significantly, it is planned, to avoid stalling of the single engine, to reduce the displacement of the pump supplying the other use circuit; the latter therefore then receives a flow rate of hydraulic fluid which may be temporarily lower than its requirements, which is only admissible for very specific applications.
- French Patent No. 2,271,416 (POCLAIN) describes a supply device similar to that described in the aforementioned patent, but intended to supply a single use circuit in parallel, by the two pumps.
- a regulator of the variable displacement of one of the two pumps is provided, designed so that, when it exerts its regulating function, the maximum power absorbed by the two pumps is constant and equal to the maximum power. of the motor.
- French Patent No. 1,545,431 (GENERAL ELECTRIC Cy) describes a fuel supply system for the post-combustion device of a gas turbine engine, comprising two centrifugal pumps with respective, significantly different flow capacities, which are continuously rotated by the turbine rotors; Valves and fluid control devices are used to supply only the lower flow pump first, and then only the higher flow pump, depending on the operating conditions of the turbine. Each of the two pumps is therefore constantly rotated, even during periods when it does not have to deliver fuel, which leads to energy losses.
- French Patent No. 2,234,463 (TRW INC.) Describes a fuel pumping device comprising a centrifugal pump driven constantly in rotation, and a positive displacement pump, which is only driven, by means of a clutch, during the start-up period, when the discharge pressure of the centrifugal pump is insufficient.
- the main purpose of this device is therefore to compensate for the insufficiency of the discharge pressure of a low speed centrifugal pump, rather than to deliver a fuel flow rate varying rapidly between staggered values.
- the use of a clutch, subject to relatively rapid wear, is also undesirable for the applications which are envisaged in the context of the present invention, and which have been mentioned previously.
- French Patent No. 2,046,559 (ROBERT BOSCH) describes systems of several pumps whose rotors, with parallel axes, are provided for example with axial pistons, controlled by fixed inclined plates; gears allow the rotors of at least two pumps to be coupled to one another, so as to obtain actuation, from a single motor shaft, of a single pump, or of at least two pumps.
- gears allow the rotors of at least two pumps to be coupled to one another, so as to obtain actuation, from a single motor shaft, of a single pump, or of at least two pumps.
- French Patent No. 2,307,994 (CHANDLER EVANS) describes a pumping device, in particular for the supply of fuel to gas turbine engines, comprising two pumps with significantly different flow rates, which are driven by a single drive shaft, one directly and the other via a clutch.
- This device does not make it possible to operate only the high flow pump, since the low flow pump is always in service.
- it offers the disadvantage of using a clutch, susceptible to rapid wear.
- the device according to the present invention for successively producing hydraulic fluid flow rates of staggered values, also comprises several rotary pumps of suitably staggered nominal flow rates, driven from a single motor, as well as means for selectively switching each of said pumps between stop and nominal speed; however, it does not have any of the drawbacks of the prior devices, previously mentioned.
- Such a device is described in DE-A-2 950 256.
- the device according to the present invention is of the type which has just been indicated, and it is characterized in that the various pumps are respectively coupled to output shafts of a mechanical transmission, comprising one or more epicyclic differentials, connected in cascade , the input axis of the differential or of the first differential of the cascade being coupled to the motor, that a brake is associated with each of said pumps, and that means are provided for causing each brake to be controlled by crossing a threshold determined by the discharge pressure of said pumps.
- the device according to the present invention offers a high degree of reliability and a long service life; the brakes which it comprises in fact only work for a short time, at each stop of a pump previously in service; the following advantages are added: the power of the single motor can be chosen to be significantly lower than the power which would be necessary to drive a single pump, having to supply the maximum flow rate required under the maximum pressure required, whence substantial savings on installed power and energy consumption; it also prevents excess power from being dissipated by heating the pump and the hydraulic fluid, which also goes in the direction of increasing the reliability and the service life of the device.
- the device according to the present invention makes it possible to send in a single circuit of use a flow rate of hydraulic fluid, which is quickly switchable between two values, minimum and maximum, respectively; for this application, the device according to the present invention is characterized in that two pumps with different nominal flow rates, coupled respectively to the two output shafts of a single epicyclic differential, flow in parallel in the input of the use circuit, and that the means are provided for controlling two brakes each associated with one of the two pumps, by crossing a threshold determined by the pressure at the input of the use circuit.
- This particularly simple and reliable embodiment is perfectly suited for supplying, for example, a high pressure hydraulic cylinder, requiring fluid flow rates which can vary very quickly between a maximum value and a minimum value, for example for the aeronautical applications previously mentioned. .
- a preferred embodiment of the device according to the present invention comprises, in the same assembly, an epicyclic differential, an input shaft, coupled to a first axis of the differential, two rotary pumps, coupled respectively to the second and third axes of the differential, and at least one brake associated with each of the two pumps.
- 1 denotes an epicyclic differential, comprising an input shaft 1 a, and two shafts output 1b and 1c.
- B and C are constant coefficients, positive or negative, depending on the characteristics of the gears constituting the differential 1.
- N o the speed of rotation
- To the output shafts 1b and 1c of the differential 1 are coupled the respective axes of a main pump, 3b, at high flow, and an auxiliary pump, at low flow, 3c.
- a hydraulic fluid tank into which a supply line 8, connected in parallel to the inputs of the two pumps 3b and 3c, and a return line 9, to which the outputs of the pressure detector are connected in parallel threshold 5 (at least if it operates hydraulically), as well as the operating circuit 6; a pressure limiter 10 is inserted between the inlet 6a of the operating circuit 6 and the return line 9.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 we will now explain the operation of the device in FIG. 1, in the case, taken by way of example, where the operating circuit 6 is a hydraulic fluid accumulator, in which the latter must be maintained under a maximum pressure, determined by the pressure limiter 10, despite intermittent withdrawals of the liquid contained in said accumulator.
- the flow of hydraulic fluid, Q is plotted on the abscissa at the inlet 6a of the accumulator 6 at a given instant, and, on the ordinate, the pressure ⁇ p of the hydraulic fluid in the accumulator 6, or at its input 6a.
- its speed increases from the value 0 to the value N o .
- the brake 4c of the auxiliary pump 3c is applied, while the brake 4b of the main pump 3b is released, only the latter flows into the inlet 6a of the accumulator 6; as the main pump 3b is then rotated at the speed the fluid flow rate that said pump 3b sends into the accumulator gradually increases to a value corresponding, in FIG. 2, to the abscissa of point A, and proportional to the drive speed of pump 3b, N o / B, therefore also at the speed N o of the motor 2.
- the motor 2 continuing to drive the main pump 3b at its speed N 0 , its flow rate itself ceases to increase, and the pressure of the liquid filling the accumulator 6 gradually increases above atmospheric pressure, up to a first determined threshold, S1, which corresponds, in FIG. 2, to the ordinate of point E.
- S1 a first determined threshold
- the hydraulic pressure detector 5 sends to the brakes 4b, 4c a signal which simultaneously controls the applying brake 4b and releasing brake 4c.
- the main pump 3b ceases to flow into the accumulator 6, which is supplied only by the auxiliary pump 3c; as the latter is rotated by the motor 2 at its speed N o / C, proportional to the speed N o of said motor 2, the fluid flow rate that the auxiliary pump 3c delivers to the accumulator 6 at its nominal value, corresponding to the minimum flow forecast; in FIG. 2, this minimum flow corresponds to the abscissa of point F.
- the flow of the auxiliary pump 3c in the accumulator 6 then causes an increase in the pressure in the accumulator, from the threshold S1, corresponding to the point F in FIG. 2, up to the maximum pressure at p m which is determined by the pressure relief valve 10, and which, in FIG.
- the pressure detector 5 is arranged to be sensitive, when it detects decreasing pressures, to this second threshold S2, lower than the first threshold, S1, to which it is sensitive when it detects increasing pressures. In other words, the pressure detector 5 is arranged so as to present a hysteresis phenomenon, and a possible embodiment will be described later.
- the detector 5 sends a signal to the brakes 4b, 4c, which simultaneously causes the brake 4c to be applied and the brake 4b to be released.
- the auxiliary pump 3c is consequently stopped and the main pump 3b again sends to the accumulator a flow of hydraulic fluid corresponding, in FIG. 2, to the abscissa of point H, and under a pressure corresponding to the ordinate, S2, from point H.
- the pressure of the hydraulic fluid contained in the accumulator again reaches the first threshold S1, which has the effect of causing the detector 5 to stop the pump.
- main 3b and the commissioning of the auxiliary pump 3c which brings the liquid filling the accumulator 6 to its maximum pressure ⁇ PM .
- FIG. 2 there have been shown in dashed lines arcs of hyperbola passing respectively through points E, F and D of the diagram, as well as through point B, which corresponds to the case where the liquid filling the accumulator has been supplied. at its maximum pressure by the single flow of the main pump 3b.
- These hyperbola arcs are parts of equi-power curves, corresponding respectively to the powers P E , P B , P D and P F provided by the device of FIG. 1 when its operating point is respectively at E, B, D and F.
- the power supplied is all the greater when the corresponding arc of hyperbola is further from the origin O of the coordinates.
- the time t has been plotted on the abscissa, starting from the instant in which the engine 2 of the device of FIG. 1 is started, and, on the ordinate, the power P supplied by this device. If the filling of the accumulator 6 with hydraulic fluid at the maximum pressure Op M had been obtained by constantly delivering the only main pump 3b in the accumulator 6, the power supplied would have varied along the curve OAEB X. In the case previously described, of the alternating operation of the pumps 3b and 3c, the power supplied varied according to the curve OAEFD Y.
- the energy supplied by the device corresponds in each case to the area between the curve of variation of the power P d on the one hand, and the abscissa axis, t, on the other hand, it is easy to see, in FIG. 3, that the alternating operation of the pumps of the device in FIG. 1 allows a very significant energy saving compared to when using a single pump.
- the threshold pressure detector 5 can be of any type, suitable for the brakes 4b and 4c.
- the pressure detector 5 must be produced so as to transmit a first electrical signal for controlling the application of the brake 4b and the release of the brake 4c, when it detects the passage of an increasing pressure by the first threshold S1, and a second electrical signal for controlling the release of the brake 4b and the application of the brake 4c, when it detects the passage of a decreasing pressure through the second threshold S2.
- threshold pressure detector 5
- this detector is combined with a pressure switch, making it possible to use the hydraulic fluid discharged by one of the two pumps, 3b, 3c. to control the application of its brake and the release of the brake of the other pump by a hydraulic cylinder, an embodiment of which will be described next using FIG. 6.
- 11 designates a cylindrical chamber, which is arranged in a sealed casing and which is preceded by an anteroom 11a, also cylindrical, and of slightly smaller diameter, so that it is connected to the chamber 11 by an annular bearing 12.
- 11a is freely slidably mounted a drawer 13, of length less than the sum of the lengths of said chambers; on the side of the anteroom 11a, the drawer 13 firstly has a cylindrical section 13a, with a diameter slightly smaller than that of the anteroom 11a, and, beyond this section 13a, cylindrical sections 13b to 13d , of which at least the first is adjusted in the anteroom 11a so as to ensure sealing while allowing the free sliding of the drawer 13.
- the drawer 13 comprises annular rings 13e to 13q, which are adjusted so as to seal against the wall of the chamber 11, while allowing the slide 13 to slide freely.
- known sealing means can be provided at the sections 13b, 13e, 13f and 13q of the drawer 13. The latter therefore delimits in the chamber 11 compartments 11b, 11c, and 11d, which are sealed from each other, as well as from the anteroom 11a.
- a first conduit 13h which communicates the anteroom 11a with the compartment 11c
- a second conduit, 13i which communicates the compartment iid of the chamber 11 with its rear compartment 11e.
- a helical spring 14 which bears, on one side, on the base of the annular ring 13q of the drawer 13, and, on the other side, on a cup 15, itself carried by the end of a threaded rod 16, screwed tightly, in a threaded hole in the rear wall 17 of the housing of the detector 5.
- a conduit 18 is also arranged which makes it possible to bring into the anteroom 11a the pressure prevailing at all times at the inlet 6a of the use circuit 6, a conduit 19 which is connected, on one side, by branches 19a and 19b respectively to the compartments 11b and 11d or 11c, and, on the other side, to a pipe 20, leading to a hydraulic cylinder for controlling the brakes 4b and 4c, as well as a pipe 21, connecting the rear compartment 11 e of the chamber 11 to the return pipe 9 (see also FIG. 1) .
- the pressure switch detector illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 operates as follows: as long as the pressure at the inlet 6a of the operating circuit 6 is less than the first threshold, S1, this pressure, which also prevails in l antechamber 11a and, via the conduit 13h, in compartment 11c, is insufficient to overcome the thrust of the compressed spring 14, so that this the latter maintains the left end of the drawer 13 applied against the corresponding end surface of the anteroom 11a, as illustrated in FIG. 4.
- the rear compartment 11e, the pipe 13i of the drawer 13, the compartment 11 d, the conduits 19b, 19, 19a, 20 and the compartment 11b are then filled with hydraulic fluid at atmospheric pressure, so that the hydraulic brake control cylinder 4b and 4c is not actuated, which corresponds to release of brake 4b and application of brake 4c.
- the pressure at the inlet 6a of the operating circuit 6 approaches the first threshold S1 (point E in FIG. 2), the result of the forces which the pressure prevailing in the anteroom 11a exerts on the left face and the crown annular 13i of the drawer 13 becomes sufficient to overcome the thrust of the spring 14 and consequently to move the said drawer 13 to the right of FIG. 4.
- hydraulic fluid under pressure S1 is transmitted by the circuit 18, 11a, 13h, 11c, 19a, 19b, 19, 20 to the hydraulic cylinder which immediately controls the application of the brake 4b and releasing the brake 4c. Thanks to the acceleration, previously indicated, of the displacement of the slide 13, the communication of the pressure prevailing in the pipe 20, from the minimum value (for example the atmospheric pressure), to the control value S1, takes place so quickly that the time during which the two pumps 3b and 3c are simultaneously driven by the motor is reduced as much as possible. This gives very rapid switching of the flow rate of hydraulic liquid sent to the inlet 6a of the operating circuit 6, from its maximum value, corresponding to the abscissa of point E in Figure 2, to its minimum value, corresponding to the abscissa of point F.
- the switch 5 thus produces a very rapid switching of the flow rate sent into the input 6a of the operating circuit 6, from its minimum value, corresponding to the abscissa of point G in FIG. 2, to its maximum value, corresponding to l abscissa of point H, and this as soon as the detector has detected the reduction in pressure at the input of the operating circuit to the value of the second threshold S2, less than that of the first threshold S1.
- the value of the first threshold S1 can be adjusted by adjusting the minimum compression of the spring 14, by rotation of the threaded rod 16 outside the housing of the detector 5.
- the device illustrated in FIG. 6 is an assembly 22 comprising in joined casings 22a to 22e, an epicyclic differential 1, the first axis of which, 1a, is coupled to an input shaft, which can itself be coupled to a any motor shaft, two rotary pumps, one, 3b, at high flow, which is coupled to the second axis, 1b, of differential 1 and the other, 3c, at low flow, which is coupled to the third axis, 1c, of the differential 1, as well as two disc brakes, 4b and 4c, associated respectively with the pumps 3b and 3c, and in particular with the axes 1b and 1c to which they are respectively coupled, finally a hydraulic cylinder 23, used for the simultaneous control, and in phase opposition, the two disc brakes 4b and 4c.
- the epicyclic differential 1 consists essentially of a plate with conical teeth, 1d, wedged on the first axis 1a, a crown 1e, of the same diameter and of the same conical teeth as the plate 1d, and integral of the second axis, 1b, itself of tubular shape, as well as two planetary gears, 1 f and 1 q, wedged between the plate 1 d and the crown 1 e, on the same axis radial, 1h, so as to mesh simultaneously with the respective teeth of said plate and of said crown; the third axis 1 c, which is internal and coaxial with the second tubular axis, 16, and of greater length than it, is fixed by one end to the radial axis 16 of the planetary, in the extension of the first axis 1a of the differential.
- the pumps 3b and 3c are, for example, positive displacement pumps.
- the driven pinion of the main pump 3b is fixed on a shaft 24, mounted freely rotating in the casing, and it is rotated by a pinion 25, keyed onto the second tubular axis, 1b, of the differential 1.
- the pump auxiliary 3c is arranged in the casing following the main pump 3b, and its driven pinion is driven in rotation by a pinion 27 keyed on the extreme part of the third axis, 1c, of the differential 1, which extends beyond from its second tubular axis, 1 b.
- the disc supports, Db, De of the two brakes 4b, 4c are keyed respectively on the second and third axes, 1b and 1c of the differential 1; these discs are themselves arranged in a cylindrical chamber of the casing 22d, which is interposed between the two pumps 3b and 3c; the fixed linings Gb1 and Gc1 of the two brakes 4b and 4c are fixed, one opposite the other, at the level of the corresponding discs, to the end walls of the mentioned chamber; the movable linings Gb2 and Gc2 of the two brakes 4b and 4c are also mounted back to back, between the two corresponding discs, Db and Dc, on an annular piece 23a, which is itself coupled in translation to the piston 23b of the hydraulic control cylinder 23, by at least one threaded rod 23d parallel to the axis 1c.
- the chamber 23e of the jack 23 is itself arranged in the casing 22e at the end opposite to that where the differential 1 is mounted; its piston 23b has in particular the shape of a bowl, on the bottom of which bears a return spring 26.
- 23f designates the outlet, in the chamber 23e of the jack, of its supply pipe, which can be connected for example by a line 20 to channel 19 of the pressure switch detector 5, illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 and previously described.
- FIG. 6 is susceptible of numerous variants, all coming within the scope of the invention.
- the rotational speeds of the three axes 1a to 1c are related by the linear relationship: so that when the input shaft 1a is driven at speed N o , of the motor, or the pump 3b rotates in the opposite direction to the motor, at the same speed N o , or else the pump 3c rotates in the same direction, at half speed, N o / 2.
- Different relationships between the respective speeds of the two pumps and that of the engine could be obtained by swapping the roles of the three axes of the differential.
- FIG. 7 represents a second embodiment of the invention comprising four epicyclic differentials, 1A to 1D, which are connected in cascade; the first axis a, or input axis, of the first differential 1A, is coupled to the shaft of a motor 2; the second axis, such as Ab (respectively, Bb, Cb, Eb) of each of the differentials, such that 1A (respectively 1B, 1C, 1D) is coupled to the axis of a rotary pump such as 3a, (respectively 3b , 3c, 3 d ), while its third axis, such as Ac, (respectively Bc, Cc) is coupled to the first axis, or input axis of the next differential of the cascade, for example 1 B (respectively 1C, 1D ) with the exception of the third axis, Ec, of the last differential, 1D, of the cascade, which is also coupled to the shaft of a rotary pump, 3e.
- the various pumps 3a to 3e are associated respectively with brakes 4a to 4e, for example of the electromagnetic type.
- the aspirations of the pumps 3a to 3e are supplied by suitable pipes, from hydraulic fluid reservoirs, which can be provided in a number equal to that of the pumps, or else grouped in a common tank 7.
- the discharges of the different pumps 3a to 3e are connected by suitable pipes to input 6a the use circuit 6; a bypass of the discharge line of the five pumps leads to a control device 5, from which electrical lines leave, intended to transmit electrical control signals to the various electromagnetic brakes 4a to 4e.
- the automatic control device 5 is capable of numerous known embodiments, adapted to the application envisaged in each case.
- the automatic control device 5 is arranged so as to simultaneously produce the application of the brakes associated with all the pumps, except one, the brake of which can then be applied at a programmed time, at the same time that the brake of one of the other pumps is immediately released; this latter switching is triggered by the automatic device 5 when the threshold pressure detector incorporated therein, which detects the discharge pressure of the pump currently in service, passes through a determined threshold, by increasing or decreasing values, as previously described in connection with the first embodiment.
