Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hydraulic system according to the preamble of the claim, known from US-A-4,712,376.
  • this hydraulic system the measurement of the current delivery rate is to be carried out by detecting the pump speed. From this, the positions of the control valves are then to be corrected by means of a computer with the aid of previously determined nominal values from an electronic memory.
  • Another hydraulic system is known from DE 26 51 325 C2.
  • a control valve is notified on the one hand of the pressure at the pump and on the other hand of the highest load pressure. If the pump can no longer deliver the volume flow required by the valves assigned to the individual consumers, the pressure difference between the pressure of the pump and the highest load pressure is reduced.
  • the control valve consequently reduces the supply to the control pressure transmitter, by means of which the valves assigned to the consumers are actuated. This limits the flow of the valves. However, this limitation only becomes effective if there is already an excessive demand.
  • the object of the invention is to design the hydraulic system so that it is not susceptible to vibration and that any weighting and adaptation of the individual consumer flows to the operating parameters of the pump is also possible.
  • the solution results from the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the solution has the advantage that, in contrast to the previous hydraulic systems, the operating state of the pump is recorded directly. Fluctuations in the operating state can therefore be effectively compensated for.
  • the control signals of the valves are reduced.
  • By measuring the pump current it can always be determined whether the supply of the individual consumers is guaranteed. This prevents undersupply.
  • the reduction of consumer currents can take place proportionally. However, a reduction according to priorities is also possible if, for. B. an individual consumer should not reduce his speed in contrast to the others.
  • control circuit which is the subject of this invention, intervenes only in exceptional cases, namely when the pumpable pump flow is not sufficient for the consumer flows set on the respective valves, which in total result in the current flow rate.
  • the current flow rate is reduced by reducing the respective consumer flows supplied.
  • Standard measuring devices are available for measuring the current delivery rate of the pump.
  • the current delivery volume can be measured by connecting the valves to the valves assigned to the individual consumers in the pump line (total delivery line), ie before the branching off of the consumer lines lead, a throttle or orifice arranged and the pressure drop is measured at this orifice.
  • the current delivery rate based on the predetermined possible delivery rate - at a given speed - can also be determined by the configurations according to claims 2 and 3.
  • valves that are assigned to the consumers. Basically, it can be assumed that these valves are adjusted electromagnetically or hydraulically from the outside, that is, by hand or by external input parameters. According to this invention, however, an adjustment signal for reducing the actuation of the valve piston is superimposed on these input signals if it is determined in the hydraulic system by measuring the current delivery quantity that the pumpable pump flow is exceeded.
  • the predeterminable pumpable pump current does not necessarily correspond to the maximum pumpable pump current. Rather, a lower limit, e.g. B. 80% of the maximum conveyable pump flow. This ensures that the hydraulic system does not fall out of its control range due to an absolute overload of the pump.
  • the adaptation of the consumer flows to the specified pump flow that can be conveyed when the limit value is exceeded is basically achieved by reducing the sum of the consumer flows to the specified limit value. In the simplest case, this can be done by reducing all consumer flows by the same percentage. However, it is also possible to weight the control signals, by means of which the consumer currents are reduced, differently for each consumer. This allows individual consumers to be given priority over other consumers. It can e.g. B. ensure that such consumers, for safety reasons, always with a certain consumer current have to be loaded, e.g. B. hydraulic brakes have priority over other consumers. This will be discussed later.
  • the embodiment of the invention according to claim 2 takes advantage of the knowledge that the delivery rate is also determined by the deflection of the balance piston of a 3-way pressure balance, which is deflected by the pressure difference between the pump pressure and the highest load pressure.
  • the current delivery rate is measured by measuring the deflection of the piston of a 3-way pressure compensator, which serves to keep the pressure difference between the pump pressure and the highest consumer pressure constant in a superimposed control loop.
  • the claim 3 relates to a hydraulic circuit with a control pump.
  • the current delivery volume is adjusted by relative adjustment between the stator (stationary part of the pump) and the rotor (rotating part of the pump) (see, for example, DE 26 51 325 C2), namely - in the preferred case - depending the pressure difference between the highest consumer pressure and the pump pressure.
  • the control position of the control pump is also used to measure the current flow.
  • a constant pump is used as the feed pump, which delivers a flow rate that is constant over time.
  • the delivery rate is measured immediately. That could e.g. B. happen directly by means of a built-in throttle on which a pressure difference is determined.
  • this can also be done by a 3-way pressure differential balance built into the delivery line, the balance piston of which is given the pressure difference between the pump pressure and the highest load pressure, the part of the flow rate not required to maintain this pressure difference depending on the position of the balance piston a bypass to the tank is derived.
  • either the position of the piston of the pressure compensator or the oil flow in the bypass to the tank can be used as a measure of the delivery flow provided for all the consumers.
  • This signal representing the flow rate is in turn compared in a comparator with a maximum flow rate and the difference signal is used to adjust or limit the flow rate supplied to the individual consumers.
  • this signal can either be superimposed with the delivery rate or the torque and / or the delivery pressure of the pump.
  • the special meaning of the invention according to claim 1 in the embodiment according to claims 2 and 3 is that the pump current is regulated by adapting the consumer currents to a predetermined limit value (pump current that can be conveyed), but this regulation only functions when the specified limit is reached.
  • the control pump or pressure differential balance is included in a second control circuit as a measuring element. So several control loops are superimposed.
  • An internal control circuit uses the pressure difference delta p between the pump pressure and the highest load pressure as the control variable and the control position of the control pump or the pressure compensating piston as the control variable.
  • the pressure difference delta p is measured on a piston and specified by dimensioning the spring of the pressure differential balance.
  • the control position of the control pump or the differential pressure balance ie. H. the manipulated variable is specified.
  • the superimposed outer control loop uses the currently measured delivery rate, ie the position of the piston of the differential pressure compensator in the sense of claim 2 or the control position of the control pump in the sense of claim 3 in order to be used in an emergency, ie Exceeding the limit value representing the pump flow that can be pumped, by adjusting the consumer flows as a manipulated variable, to keep the control variable specified by the limit value constant, namely the current flow rate.
  • the adaptation of the consumer flows of the individual consumers to the predetermined, maximum pumpable pump flow can also be achieved by superimposing the measurement signal obtained from the measurement of the current delivery quantity (deflection of the balance piston according to claim 2, control position of the control pump according to claim 3) with the pump output corresponding to the pump torque ( Delivery volume x delivery pressure) and / or the delivery pressure.
  • This has the advantage that a desired weighting of the delivery rate, the delivery torque and the delivery pressure of the control pump can be predetermined when the valve position is adapted to the maximum pump flow.
  • the current delivery capacity determined from the respective control position of the pump and the delivery pressure of the pump by multiplication or the torque of the pump is compared with a target torque and the output signal obtained from the difference is superimposed according to a selectable function, such that only when one is exceeded Given the predetermined drive torque, the position and adjustability of the valves assigned to the individual consumers are influenced, but not below this limit value.
  • the position and adjustability of the valves assigned to the individual consumers can be influenced when a certain pressure is exceeded by superimposing the delivery pressure after a certain function, but not below this pressure or only with a certain percentage.
  • the maximum external load is also taken into account when influencing the valves assigned to the consumers, in particular directional valves.
  • a pressure compensator can also be arranged in front of each valve, the pressure difference between the delivery pressure and consumer pressure, which is determined by a spring, which is taken off behind the respective valve, by adjusting the spring force as a function of the control position or superimposed on the torque and / or superimposed on the delivery pressure the control pump is adapted.
  • a setpoint processing is expedient.
  • the setpoints are the manually or automatically specified control signals for the valves assigned to the consumers. These externally entered setpoints can be fed to the system via attenuators (ramps). This specifies the rates of change at which the consumer currents can change if the setpoints entered change suddenly. It is thereby achieved that the adjustment speed of the pump or pressure differential balance is sufficient in any case to follow the change in the consumer flows over time. There can therefore be no shortage of consumers for a short time. Furthermore, the consumer flows requested by the entered target values can be roughly adapted to the maximum flow rate that can be supplied by the pump.
  • the setpoints entered from outside are brought into dependence on the sum of the setpoints entered and, in addition, on the predetermined pump flow that can be conveyed.
  • this leads to a weighting of the individual consumers and ensures that B. for safety reasons - important consumers always have an adequate oil flow.
  • the setpoints are reduced in advance if the specified pump flow that can be conveyed is expected to be exceeded on the basis of the input setpoint signals.
  • a control pump 1 is adjusted hydraulically.
  • a hydraulic valve (spring-loaded pressure compensator) 2 which detects the pump flow, is used for hydraulic adjustment.
  • the pressure compensator 2 is given on the one hand pump pressure and on the other hand the highest consumer pressure together with a spring load by spring 15 via a cascade of shuttle valves 3.
  • the pump 1 loads several consumers 4 ', 4 ⁇ , 4 ′′′.
  • Each consumer 4 is first a pressure control valve (pressure compensator, differential pressure compensator) 5 ';5 ⁇ ; 5 ′′′ upstream.
  • Characterized a constant pressure difference is set on the individual control valve 6, so that a load-independent, the control proportional setting of the respective consumer 4 ';4 ⁇ ; 4 utiliseen supplied volume flow (consumer flow) is possible.
  • the consumer current is therefore only dependent on signals a and b, with which the individual control valves are activated. As long as these signals are constant remain, the consumer current remains constant. However, this only applies on the condition that the control pump can provide a pump current sufficient for all consumers.
  • the control pump 1 is adjusted by an actuator 7.
  • the adjusting member 7 is a cylinder in which a piston with piston rod 17 is movable.
  • the piston adjusts the position of the rotor within the control pump, which is only indicated here.
  • the piston 16 is loaded on one side by a spring 18 and by the control pressure in line 19 emitted by the pressure compensator 2. As already described, this control pressure is dependent on the pressure difference between the pump pressure in the pump line 20 and the highest consumer pressure , which is determined by the cascade of shuttle valves 3.
  • the piston 16 is acted upon by the pump pressure in the pump line 20 on its side facing away from the spring 18.
  • the spring 18 and the control pressure 19 act in the sense of increasing the delivery volume of the control pump.
  • the control pump 1 is therefore included in a control circuit and has the function of supplying the manipulated variable to keep the controlled variable constant: pressure difference between the highest consumer pressure and the pump pressure.
  • the adjustment path with which the control pump 1 is adjusted by means of the actuator 7 is measured.
  • This adjustment path alpha is measured and given to the control unit 21, which will be described later.
  • the control unit is given a signal that represents the measured pump pressure and is designated P in the following. It goes without saying that both the adjustment value alpha and the pressure P via suitable converters into a form suitable for the control unit, e.g. B. a voltage must be converted.
  • control unit 21 is provided on the one hand with the setpoint input devices 13 ', 13 ⁇ , 13 ′′′ and on the other hand with the setpoint output devices, in particular amplifiers 14', 14 ⁇ , 14 ′′′.
  • Each output device is connected with its output lines A and B to the consumer, which has the same numbering. In order not to disturb the clarity of the circuit diagram, these connecting lines are not drawn.
  • control unit 21 also has the inlets for the adjustment path alpha and the pressure P.
  • the control unit is used to adapt the entered target values to the measured pump current.
  • the same control unit is also used for the hydraulic system according to FIG. 2. A description of FIG. 2 is therefore given first.
  • Three consumers 4 ', 4 ⁇ , 4 ′′′ are fed by a constant hydraulic pump 1.
  • a volume flow control is carried out by means of a pressure differential balance 22.
  • the piston 23 of the pressure differential balance is loaded on one side by a spring 24 and the highest load pressure.

  • the piston 23 is loaded by the pump pressure.
  • the differential pressure balance is connected to the tank via a bypass channel. By adjusting the piston 23, a constant pressure difference is adjusted.
