Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hydraulic telescopic device comprising an oil tank and several immersed pistons arranged in a main cylinder, said pistons being actuated by means of a pump having an overloading valve determining the maximum pressure produced by the pump, the main cylinder being provided at one end with a combined cylinder head and guide member to define together with largest of said pistons a pressurized compartment in the main cylinder.
  • Hydraulic telescopic devices of this type are used in many different applications e. g. in connection with lifting devices in the form of tipping waggons, lifting tables, highlifting lift trucks, so-called highlifters, etc.
  • a device according to the type mentioned above is disclosed in DE-A-2 657 831.
  • a piston area is provided which is different from the piston areas of the other steps.
  • the overloading valve which is connected with the pump determines the maximum pressure supplied by the pump. Together with the piston area this maximum determines the lifting force which the telescopic device may exert in connection with the associated listing device.
  • the greatest piston is extended and secondly, the next following smaller piston is extended, and so on, until telescopic device is fully extended.
  • the associated lifting device is dimensioned for lifting e. g. 1000 kg the telescopic device should thus be able to lift 1000 kg in fully extended state.
  • the force exterted by the telescopic device is a function of the prevailing pressure and the area of the piston extended in the latest step. As the area of the piston extended in the latest step is smaller than that of the pistons extended in the previous steps and as overloading valve of the pump is effective at a previously set or chosen pressure it is thus possible to exert a greater force in the preceding steps.
  • This greater force may raise the lifting device even though it is loaded with a weight substantially exceeding 1000 kg.
  • a two-step telescopic device is used and in case the ratio between the areas of the pistons is 1 : 2 then the telescopic device will be able to lift a 2000 kg load in the first step.
  • a heavy overloading may give rise to the breakdown of the lifting device.
  • the overloading valve may be set to open at a substantially lower pressure.
  • ahydraulic telescopic device mentioned by way of introduction and wich is characterized in that the telescopic device is provided with a pressure relief device consisting of a connection line in the combined cylinder head and guide member and opening into the pressurized compartment, a pressure relief valve connected to the connection line and to a return line leading to the oil tank, and a cut-off member which is activated by the largest piston to close the connection line at the end of the stroke of the largest piston, whereby the pressure relief device limits the operating pressure of the largest piston in the main cylinder.
  • telescopic device having a pressure relief which may be adjusted to the maximum allowable prevailing during the extension of the largest piston, said relief device being inactivated at the end of the stroke of said piston.
  • a pressure will also prevail inside the cylinder all the way along the outer side of the piston which pressure corresponds to the pressure exerted on the lower side of the piston and which effects the extension of the piston.
  • the pressure prevailing along the outer side of the piston will actuate the pressure relief valve via the connection line in the combined cylinder head and guide member.
  • the pressure relief valve opens and provides for the return of the hydraulic oil to the oil tank.
  • the pressure relief valve is advantageously built into the combined cylinder head and guide member.
  • the oil tank is situated around the main cylinder and is extended to and is defined by the combined cylinder head and guide member.
  • the return pipe from the pressure relief valve placed in the combined cylinder head and guide member may open directly into the oil tank.
  • the telescopic device, the associated oil tank and the pump appear as an assembly which may advantageously be manufactured without any outer pipes.
  • the pump it is possible to arrange the pump as a separate unit if desired, e.g. in connection with an electrically activated pump.
  • Fig. 1 shows a view, partly in section, of a known two-step telescopic device.
  • the telescopic device illustrated is intended for use in a highlifting lift truck of the type shown in Fig. 6.
  • the telescopic device comprises a main cylinder 1, wherein the two pistons 2 and 3 are placed.
  • the largest piston 2 is intended to be extended together with the inner piston 3 in the first step.
  • the piston 2 has protruding guide blocks 5 which are in contact with the inner surface of the wall 6 in order to guide the piston 2 during its extension from the main cylinder 1.
  • a combined cylinder head and guide member 7′ is placed which on the one hand closes the cylinder 1 and on the other assists in guiding the piston 2.
  • the combined cylinder head and guide member 7′ illustrated in Fig. 1 is manufactured in the conventional design which means that it is impossible to provide a pressure relief device according to the invention.
  • An oil tank 8 is arranged surrounding in part the main cylinder thus providing a compact built-together unit which is especially applicable in combination with the lifting device illustrated in Fig. 6.
  • the telescoping device shown in Fig. 1 may be converted to a telescopic device according to the invention solely by substituting the combined cylinder head and guide member 7′ with a combined cylinder head and guide member 7 of the type illustrated in Figs. 3 or 4.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a manually operated pump 9 which is activated through a piston 10 by a combined pump rod and handle 11 (see Fig. 6).
  • the pump 9 will be used conventionally to pump hydraulic oil into the space between the wall 6 of the main cylinder 1 and the piston 2 which are thereby immersed in the hydraulic oil, and accordingly, oil under pressure is provided along the outside of the piston up to a sealing member 12 placed in the combined cylinder head and guide member 7′.
  • a valve system 13 is positioned on the one hand so as to ensure the correct function of the pump and on the other so as to provide an overloading valve ensuring a limited maximum pump pressure.
  • an electriccally activated pump (not shown) may be used.
  • the oil tank may be manufactured in a different form provided as a separate tank and placed apart from the telescopic device.

  • the connection line 14 is connected with a pressure relief valve 17 via a cut-off member provided in the form of a change-over valve 16.
  • the pressure relief valve 17 is connected with the oil tank 8 via by return line 18.
  • a system corresponding to the one connected with the main cylinder may be arranged at the top of the hollow piston 2 in order to provide a further connection line and a further pressure relief valve (not shown). Such construction is advantageously used when the telescopic device comprises more than two steps.
  • the overloading valve 13 which is associated with the pump 9 and which is adjusted to open at the pressure corresponding to the maximum allowable load of the telescopic device.
  • this valve may according to the prior art be changed by means of an activating knob 16′ at the end of the stroke of the piston 2 in order to cut off the connection line. In this situation the pressure relief valve 17 will not be operative.
  • a cut-off member 19 may be positioned at the bottom of the piston 2 in the vicinity of the guide blocks 5. This cut-off member 19 is intended to cut off the mouth of the connection line 14 at the end of the stroke of the piston 2.
  • the connection to the pressure relief valve 17 will be disrupted and the pressure relief valve provided in association with the overloading valve 13 (not shown in Fig. 2) will then be operative.
  • cut-off members in the form of the outer change-over valve 16 may be used as an alternative to the cut-off member 19 which is positioned inside the telescopic device itself and both alternatives are shown in the same figure for illustrative reasons only.

  • the pressure relief valve comprises an adjusting screw 23 which is provided with a seal ring 24 and which via a spring 25 actuates a valve body 26 bringing it into contact with a valve seat 27.
  • the pressure relief valve is connected with the pressurized compartment through a connection line 28, viz. the space 15 during the extension of the piston 2.
  • the pressure relief valve 17 is via a return line, provided in the form of an opening 29 connected with the oil tank 8 surrounding the telescopic device.
