Definitions
- the present invention is related to a hydraulic actuator for turning movement of a knuckle, such as a steering knuckle, demanding less than 360 turning for actuation.
- Prior art actuators for knuckles of the above cited type are mechanical transmissions or hydraulic actuators having rectilinear movements which are translated to the knuckle by means of levers, resulting that the turning movement is performed with variable forces, dependent of the knuckle position.
- Known actuators of the above-mentioned type furthermore having fixed activation points on the knuckle which may lead to difficulties in connection with especially steering knuckles which due to the force acting against the knuckles, may achieve a bending deviating from the theoretical axis of the knuckle and furthermore an extension due to temperature variations.
- the actuator according to the invention is well suited for turning knuckles where the turning movement being more than 300°, whereby here two pistons are used, one fixed and one displaceable.
- two pistons of each type will be adequate and for steering knuckles on greater ships where normal turning is 2 x 35 degrees, three pistons will be suitable.
- Figure 1 discloses a perspective representation of the hydraulic actuator according to the invention, different parts thereby being removed for simplification
- Figure 2 discloses a horizontal projection of the actuator, the upper part thereby being removed
- Figure 3 discloses a cross section of the actuator, through a piston
- Figure 4 discloses a section along IV-IV in Figure 2
- Figure 5 discloses schematically the actuator including the hydraulic units.
- a torus shaped guiding path is created by the lower part 2 and the upper part 1 of the actuator, together with a carrier ring 3 arranged in the inner sircumference of the guiding path.
- the torus shaped guiding path is arranged around and substantially in a right angel to a knuckle, in the present case a steering knuckle 8.
- pistons 5 are fixed diametrically opposed to each other and two pistons 4 being fixed to the carrier ring 3, also arranged diametrically opposed to each other and between the pistons fixed to the lower part. All pistons having seelings 11 in both sides, seelingly abutting against the torus shaped guiding path.
- the upper part 1 is fixedly connected to the lower part 2, whereas the carrier ring 3 is seelingly turnable as opposed to the upper part and the lower part.
- the pistons 4 fixed to the carrier ring may be displaced in the torus shaped guiding path in relation to the pistons 5 which are fixed to the lower part 2.
- connection channel 12 is arranged to an output 13 near one side of one of the pistons 5 secured to the lower part 2, whereas a corresponding connection channel and an output being arranged on the other side of the same piston from the channel 9.
- connection means being arranged on the lower part 2 for supply and discharge respectively of hydraulic fluid to and from the channels 9 and 10.
- a direction cock 14 is arranged in each connection channel 12 whereby connection can be established between channel 9,, respectively 10, and the guiding path, or from the guiding path to a reservoir 15 arranged in the lower part 2.
- the arrangement of the direction cock 14 makes it possible to decrease the pressure in certain parts of the guiding path if this should be desirable, such as by defects, leakage and such in a certain part of the guiding path.
- the lower part 2 suitably is provided with a flange 16 for securement at a suitable position.
- connection channel 12 By pressurizing one of the channels, such as channel 10, hydraulic fluid will flow through the connection channel 12 and out through the output 13 to the two diametrically opposed arranged spaces of the guiding path and the piston 4, secured to the carrier ring 3, will be pressed away from the corresponding fixed piston 5, whereas the hydraulic fluid on the other side of the piston 5 is discharged through the opposed arranged output, the connection channel and to the channel 9 for returning the hydraulic fluid to the reservoir 15 arranged in connection with the hydraulic unit.
- the carrier ring will be displaced in relation to the lower part 2 and thereby moving two diametrically opposed arranged pins 7 which are connected with the steering knuckle 8.
- the pins 7 are mounted in linings 17 of bearing in such a way that the pins 7 can be turned in relation to the linings 17.
- Each lining 17 is arranged between two guiding means 18 in such a way that the linings 17 can be moved axially in relation to the carrier ring 3, thereby allowing possible extension of compression of the steering knuckle 8, caused by temperature variations.
- the pins 7 are secured to a rotor 6 which again is rigidly connected to the steering knuckle 8.
- the steering knuckle 8 can be turned in both directions by activating the channels 9 or 10 whereby no special forces are created in the connection between the pins 7 and the carrier ring 3 due to length variations of the pins 7 by temperature variations or bending of the steering knuckle from the theoretical middle axis due to forces against the steering knuckle or the rudder.
- An oblique mounting of the actuator in relation to the steering knuckle will not influence the relationship between the actuator and the steering knuckle.
- a possible extension of the rotor 6 also can be adapted by the bearing linings 17.
