Abstract

The safety valve (1) of a safety device for limiting load moments has two control elements (6, 7) which are acted upon by the pressure to be monitored and change over in defined sequence during increasing pressure and of which the control element (6) changing over first interrupts in the process the previously existing connection between shut-off member (S) and pressure-medium reservoir (T), and the control element changing over subsequently in the process opens the previously blocked connection between the pressure (P) to be monitored and the shut-off member (S). To prevent leakage, the two control elements (6, 7) are designed as separate seat valves (8, 9) and are preloaded via a common spring arrangement (3), the defined change-over sequence being ensured via different sealing diameters or additional preloading at one of the seat valves (8, 9). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sicherheitseinrichtung, insbesonders zur Lastmomentbegrenzung bei Fahrzeugkränen oder dgl., mit einem vom Druck eines zu überwachenden Druckmittelkreislaufes beaufschlagbaren Sicherheitsventil und zumindest einem damit in Verbindung stehenden druckmittelbetätigbaren Abschaltorgan, das für die Dauer einer Überschreitung eines kritischen Druckes Steuereinrichtungen des Druckmittelkreislaufes im Sinne einer Druckbegrenzung beeinflußt, wobei das Sicherheitsventil zwei vom zu überwachenden Druck beaufschlagte, vorgespannte Schaltorgane aufweist, welche bei ansteigendem Druck in definierter Aufeinanderfolge umschalten und von denen das zuerst umschaltende dabei die vorher bestehende Verbindung zwischen Abschaltorgan und Druckmittelreservoir unterbricht und das danach umschaltende dabei die vorher gesperrte Verbindung des zu überwachenden Druckes zum Abschaltorgan öffnet.The invention relates to a safety device, in particular for limiting the load torque in vehicle cranes or the like, with a safety valve which can be acted upon by the pressure of a pressure medium circuit to be monitored and at least one pressure-medium-actuated shut-off element which controls the pressure medium circuit for the duration of a critical pressure Pressure limitation is affected, the safety valve having two biased switching elements, which are acted upon by the pressure to be monitored, which switch over in a defined sequence as the pressure rises and of which the first switching circuit interrupts the previously existing connection between the switching-off element and the pressure medium reservoir, and the switching afterwards the previously blocked connection of the pressure to be monitored to the shut-off device opens.

Derartige Einrichtungen sind bekannt und werden beispielsweise zur angegebenen Lastmomentbegrenzung bei Fahrzeugkränen oder dgl. eingesetzt. Die Aufgabe des Sicherheitsventil ist es, einen lastmomentproportionalen Druck, beispielsweise unmittelbar den Arbeitsdruck des zu überwachenden Druckmittelkreislaufes, zu überwachen und bei Erreichen eines kritischen Druckes die Abschaltorgane mit Druck zu beaufschlagen. Diese Abschaltorgane verhindern dann beispielsweise durch Blockierung bzw. Begrenzung der Bedienhebel die Eingabe von weiteren lastvergrößernden Stellbewegungen. Damit bleiben nur noch lastverringernde Stellbewegungen möglich, die zu einem Absinken des überwachten Druckes führen, was schließlich ab einem gewissen Druckniveau wieder zur Aufhebung der Lastmomentbegrenzung führt, wobei die Abschaltorgane die Bedienhebel wieder für alle Stellbewegungen freigeben.Such devices are known and are used, for example, for the specified load torque limitation in vehicle cranes or the like. The task of the safety valve is to monitor a pressure proportional to the load torque, for example directly the working pressure of the pressure medium circuit to be monitored, and to apply pressure to the shut-off elements when a critical pressure is reached. These shut-off devices then prevent the entry of further load-increasing actuating movements, for example by blocking or limiting the operating levers. This means that only load-reducing actuating movements remain, which lead to a drop in the monitored pressure, which finally leads to the lifting of the load torque limitation again from a certain pressure level, with the shut-off devices releasing the operating levers again for all actuating movements.

Für derartige Einrichtung wichtig sind neben einen möglichst zuverlässigen, sicheren Funktion auch weitestgehende Leckagefreiheit sowie eine nicht allzugroße Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz. Die Leckagefreiheit ist deshalb wichtig, da der überwachte lastmomentproportionale Druck zumeist von einem der Arbeitszylinder abgenommen wird womit jede Leckage des Sicherheitsventils zu einem unerwünschten und zumeist auch gefährlichen Absinken des Zylinders und damit der Last führt. Unter Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz ist der Unterschied zwischen dem kritischen Lastdruck (bei dem die Druckbeaufschlagung der Abschaltorgane erfolgt) und dem Lastdruck, bei dem die Lastmomentbegrenzung wieder voll aufgehoben ist, zu verstehen.For such a facility, in addition to the most reliable, safe function possible, the greatest possible freedom from leakage and a not too large resuscitation pressure difference are important. The leakage is free This is important because the pressure proportional to the load torque is mostly taken from one of the working cylinders, so that any leakage of the safety valve leads to an undesirable and usually dangerous drop in the cylinder and thus the load. The resuscitation pressure difference is to be understood as the difference between the critical load pressure (at which the shutdown elements are pressurized) and the load pressure at which the load torque limitation is fully removed.

Bei den bisher bekanntgewordenen Einrichtungen der genannten Art ist das Sicherheitsventil als Schieberventil ausgeführt, dessen Schieber die beiden als Schaltorgane wirkenden Steuerkanten aufweist und gegen die Kraft einer Vorspannanordnung entsprechend dem zu überwachenden Druck im entsprechende Steuerkanten und Anschlüsse aufweisenden Gehäuse verschiebbar ist. Bei Überschreiten des zumeist über die Vorspannanordnung einstellbaren kritischen Druckes wird der Schieber bewegt und schließt damit in erwähnter Weise zuerst die vorher bestehende Verbindung zwischen Abschaltorgan und Druckmittelreservoir. Nach Überwinden der für die Leckagefreiheit wesentlichen Überdeckung wird sodann die vorher gesperrte Verbindung des zu überwachenden Druckes zum Abschaltorgan geöffnet, womit in erwähnter Weise weitere lastvergrößernde Stelleingaben verhindert werden können. Durch Einleiten lastverkleinernder Stellbewegungen erfolgt ein Absinken des überwachten Lastdruckes, womit vorerst die Verbindung zum Abschaltorgan geschlossen und nach Überwindung der Überdeckung die Verbindung zwischen Abschaltorgan und Druckmittelreservoir wieder geöffnet und die Abschaltung aufgehoben wird. Die Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz ergibt sich so aus einem Anteil aus der mechanischen Überdeckung und einem Anteil Reibungshysterese.In the previously known devices of the type mentioned, the safety valve is designed as a slide valve, the slide of which has the two control edges acting as switching elements and can be moved against the force of a pretensioning arrangement in accordance with the pressure to be monitored in the corresponding control edges and connections having housings. If the critical pressure, which can usually be set via the prestressing arrangement, is exceeded, the slide is moved and thus closes, in the manner mentioned, first of all the previously existing connection between the shut-off element and the pressure medium reservoir. After the overlap essential for the freedom from leakage has been overcome, the previously blocked connection of the pressure to be monitored to the shut-off device is then opened, whereby further load-increasing control inputs can be prevented in the manner mentioned. By initiating load-reducing actuating movements, the monitored load pressure drops, which initially closes the connection to the shut-off element and, after overcoming the overlap, opens the connection between the shut-off element and the pressure medium reservoir and deactivates the shutdown. The resuscitation pressure difference thus results from a part from the mechanical coverage and a part from friction hysteresis.

Der Nachteil der bekannten Anordnungen liegt im wesentlichen darin, daß zufolge der beschriebenen Konstruktion immer eine gewisse Leckage vom zu überwachenden Druck ins Druckmittelreservoir auftritt. Will man diese Leckage durch eine größere Überdeckung zwischen den Schaltkanten am Schieber und den Steuerkanten am Gehäuse verringern, so erhöht sich damit unmittelbar auf ebenfalls unerwünschte Weise die Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz.The disadvantage of the known arrangements is essentially that, according to the construction described, there is always a certain leakage from the pressure to be monitored into the pressure medium reservoir. Do you want this Reduce leakage due to a greater overlap between the switching edges on the slide and the control edges on the housing, so the resuscitation pressure difference immediately increases in an undesirable manner.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, die angeführten Nachteile der bekannten Einrichtung zu vermeiden und insbesonders auf konstruktiv einfache und betriebssichere Weise eine Einrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu ermöglichen, bei der auch ohne die beschriebene Leckage möglichst kleine Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenzen verwirklicht werden können.The object of the present invention is to avoid the disadvantages of the known device and, in particular, to enable a device of the type mentioned at the outset in a structurally simple and reliable manner, in which the smallest possible resuscitation pressure differences can be achieved even without the leakage described.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung bei einer Sicherheitseinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, daß die beiden Schaltorgane als separate Sitzventile ausgebildet und vom zu überwachenden Druck beaufschlagt sind. Die Sitzventile ermöglichen einen praktisch leckagefreien Betrieb der Anordnung, wobei die mechanische Entkoppelung der Öffnungs- bzw. Schließpunkte dieser beiden Sitzventile unmittelbar die Möglichkeit bietet, die Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz möglichst klein und auf alle Fälle ohne Rücksicht auf die Leckageverhinderung auszuführen.This object is achieved according to the present invention in a safety device of the type mentioned at the outset in that the two switching elements are designed as separate seat valves and are acted upon by the pressure to be monitored. The poppet valves enable the arrangement to be operated practically without leakage, the mechanical decoupling of the opening and closing points of these two poppet valves immediately offering the possibility of making the resuscitation pressure difference as small as possible and in any case without regard to the prevention of leakage.

Nach einer bevorzugten weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die beiden Sitzventile über eine gemeinsame Federanordnung vorgespannt sind, und daß ihre wirksamen Abdichtdurchmesser unterschiedlich groß sind und/oder an einem Sitzventil eine zusätzliche Vorspannfeder angeordnet ist. Diese gemeinsame Federanordnung ermöglicht einen sehr einfachen Aufbau des Sicherheitsventils und damit der gesamten Sicherheitseinrichtung, wobei die erforderliche definierte Aufeinanderfolge des Umschaltens der beiden vorgespannten Schaltorgane entweder über unterschiedlich große Abdichtdurchmesser oder aber über eine zusätzliche Vorspannfeder bzw. -anordnung an einem der Sitzventile leicht realisiert werden kann.According to a preferred further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the two seat valves are biased by a common spring arrangement, and that their effective sealing diameters are different in size and / or an additional biasing spring is arranged on a seat valve. This common spring arrangement enables the safety valve and thus the entire safety device to be constructed in a very simple manner, the required defined sequence of switching the two pretensioned switching elements being able to be easily achieved either by means of sealing diameters of different sizes or by an additional biasing spring or arrangement on one of the seat valves .

Nach einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Vorspannung der gemeinsamen Federanordnung verstellbar, womit auf einfache und zweckdienliche Weise auch bei einer Verstellung des kritischen Druckes am Sicherheitsventil die erforderliche definierte Aufeinanderfolge des Umschaltens der beiden separaten vorgespannten Schaltorgane beibehalten wird.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the bias is the common spring arrangement is adjustable, so that the required defined sequence of switching the two separate pretensioned switching elements is maintained in a simple and expedient manner even when the critical pressure on the safety valve is adjusted.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden noch anhand der teilweise schematischen Zeichnung näher erläutert, wobei Fig. 1 das Sicherheitsventil einer Sicherheitseinrichtung nach dem Stande der Technik im Querschnitt zeigt und Fig. 2 einen entsprechenden Schnitt durch eine Ausführung der vorliegenden Erfindung.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the partially schematic drawing, in which Fig. 1 shows the safety valve of a safety device according to the prior art in cross section and Fig. 2 shows a corresponding section through an embodiment of the present invention.

Das dem Stand der Technik entsprechende Sicherheitsventil 1 nach Fig. 1 ist Teil einer hier nicht weiter dargestellten Sicherheitseinrichtung beispielsweise zur Lastmomentbegrenzung bei Fahrzeugkränen oder dergleichen. Am Anschluß P des Gehäuses 2 ist der Druck eines zu überwachenden Druckmittelkreislaufes über eine nicht dargestellte Leitung angeschlossen. Der Anschluß S steht mit einem ebenfalls nicht dargestellten druckmittelbetätigbaren Abschaltorgan in Verbindung, welches für die Dauer einer Überschreitung eines über eine Vorspannfeder 3 und eine Verstellschraube 4 einstellbaren kritischen Druckes Steuereinrichtungen des Druckmittelkreislaufes, wie etwa Steuerhebel einer Handsteuerung oder dergleichen, im Sinne einer Druckbegrenzung beeinflußt. An diesem Anschluß S können natürlich an sich beliebig viele derartige Abschaltorgane angeschlossen sein. Weiters ist am Gehäuse 2 des Sicherheitsventils 1 noch ein mit T bezeichneter Anschluß zu einem Druckmittelreservoir (ebenfalls nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen.The safety valve 1 according to FIG. 1 corresponding to the state of the art is part of a safety device not shown here, for example for limiting the load torque in the case of mobile cranes or the like. At the port P of the housing 2, the pressure of a pressure medium circuit to be monitored is connected via a line, not shown. The connection S is connected to a pressure-medium-actuated shut-off element, which is also not shown, and which influences control devices of the pressure medium circuit, such as control levers of a manual control or the like, in the sense of a pressure limitation for the duration of a critical pressure that can be set via a biasing spring 3 and an adjusting screw 4. Of course, any number of such shutdown devices can be connected to this connection S. Furthermore, a connection designated T to a pressure medium reservoir (likewise not shown) is provided on the housing 2 of the safety valve 1.

Das Sicherheitsventil 1 weist hier an einem gemeinsamen Schieber 5 zwei in Form von Schaltkanten am Schieber 5 und zugehörigen Steuerkanten am Gehäuse 2 realisierte Schaltorgane 6, 7 auf, welche bei unter ansteigendem Druck über den Anschluß P und damit entgegen der Kraft der Vorspannfeder 3 in der Darstellung nach links verschobenem Schieber 5 in definierter Aufeinanderfolge umschalten und von denen das zuerst umschaltende (6) dabei die vorher bestehende Verbindung zwischen Abschaltorgan (Anschluß S) und Druckmittelreservoir (Anschluß T) unterbricht und das danach umschaltende (7) dabei die vorher gesperrte Verbindung des zu überwachenden Druckes (Anschluß P) zum Abschaltorgan (Anschluß S) öffnet.The safety valve 1 here has on a common slide 5 two switching elements 6, 7 realized in the form of switching edges on the slide 5 and associated control edges on the housing 2, which at increasing pressure via the connection P and thus against the force of the biasing spring 3 in the Representation of slider 5 shifted to the left in a defined manner Switch sequence and of which the first switching (6) interrupts the previously existing connection between the shut-off device (connection S) and pressure medium reservoir (connection T) and the switching (7) thereafter the previously blocked connection of the pressure to be monitored (connection P) Shut-off device (connection S) opens.

Die für eine möglichst geringe Leckage erforderliche Überdeckung (x1-x2) zwischen den beiden Umschaltpunkten beeinflußt unmittelbar die Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz die noch zusätzlich durch die Reibungshysterese der Anordnung vergrößert wird. Es ist einsichtig, daß bei dieser Anordnung eine an sich zur Verringerung der Leckage günstige Vergrößerung der Überdeckung unmittelbar zu einer unerwünschten Vergrößerung der Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz führt.The overlap (x1-x2) between the two changeover points required for the smallest possible leakage directly influences the resuscitation pressure difference, which is further increased by the friction hysteresis of the arrangement. It will be appreciated that with this arrangement an increase in coverage which is inherently favorable for reducing the leakage leads directly to an undesirable increase in the resuscitation pressure difference.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung nach Fig. 2 sind gleiche bzw. von der Funktion her identische Teile wiederum mit den bereits zu Fig. 1 verwendeten und kommentierten Bezugszeichen versehen.In the arrangement according to the invention according to FIG. 2, identical or functionally identical parts are again provided with the reference numerals already used and commented on in FIG. 1.

Um das Problem der Leckage der in definierter Aufeinanderfolge umschaltenden Schaltorgane 6, 7 ohne Rücksichtnahme auf die Wiederbelebungs-Druckdifferenz zu lösen sind hier nun die beiden Schaltorgane 6, 7 als separate Sitzventile 8, 9 ausgebildet, welche auch parallel separat vom zu überwachenden Druck (Anschluß P) beaufschlagt sind. Die beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 sind über die gemeinsame Federanordnung 3 vorgespannt, wobei hier die definierte Aufeinanderfolge des Umschaltens der beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 so sichergestellt ist, daß unterschiedlich große, wirksame Abdichtdurchmesser an den beiden Sitzventilen 8, 9 Verwendung finden. So ist bei einem konkreten Ausführungsbeispiel der Sitzdurchmesser des Dichtkegels des Sitzventils 8 mit 5 mm ausgebildet, während der Sitzdurchmesser der Schaltkugel des Sitzventils 9 ebenso wie der Durchmesser des Übertragungskolbens 10 mit 4,9 mm ausgeführt ist.In order to solve the problem of leakage of the switching elements 6, 7 switching in a defined sequence without taking into account the resuscitation pressure difference, the two switching elements 6, 7 are now designed as separate seat valves 8, 9, which are also connected in parallel separately from the pressure to be monitored (connection P) are applied. The two seat valves 8, 9 are biased by the common spring arrangement 3, here the defined sequence of switching the two seat valves 8, 9 is ensured so that different sized, effective sealing diameters are used on the two seat valves 8, 9. Thus, in a specific exemplary embodiment, the seat diameter of the sealing cone of the seat valve 8 is 5 mm, while the seat diameter of the switching ball of the seat valve 9 and the diameter of the transmission piston 10 are 4.9 mm.

Zur Sicherstellung derart definierter Aufeinanderfolgen des Umschaltens der beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 könnte aber auch am später umzuschaltenden Sitzventil eine zusätzliche Belastungsfeder oder dergleichen vorgesehen werden.To ensure such defined sequences of switching of the two seat valves 8, 9, however, an additional load spring or the like could also be provided on the seat valve to be switched later.

Über die Stellschraube 4 ist auch hier wiederum die Vorspannung der gemeinsamen Federanordnung 3 in Grenzen variierbar, womit sich die Umschaltpunkte der beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 gemeinsam und unter Beibehaltung ihrer definierten Aufeinanderfolge zur Verschiebung des kritischen Druckes verschieben lassen.Again, the bias of the common spring arrangement 3 can be varied within limits by means of the adjusting screw 4, so that the changeover points of the two seat valves 8, 9 can be shifted together and while maintaining their defined sequence to shift the critical pressure.

Bei einer Erhöhung des über den Anschluß P anliegenden zu überwachenden Druckes über den mittels der Vorspannfeder bzw. Federanordnung 3 eingestellten kritischen Druck wird zufolge des besprochenen Durchmesserverhältnisses der Schließflächen der beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 das in der Darstellung untere Sitzventil 8 zuerst mittels des Kegelsitzes die vorher bestehende Verbindung zwischen den Anschlüssen S (zu dem bzw. den nicht dargestellten Abschaltorgan(en)) und (über den Ringspalt nach dem Dichtsitz) T (Reservoir) schließen - nach einer entsprechenden geringen weiteren Druckerhöhung wird dann die vorher über die Sitzkugel geschlossene Verbindung zwischen dem Anschluß P und dem Anschluß S geöffnet, womit das Anschaltorgan zur Druckbegrenzung aktiviert wird. Bei absinkendem Druck am Anschluß P passiert sinngemäß das Umgekehrte.In the event of an increase in the pressure to be monitored via the port P above the critical pressure set by means of the prestressing spring or spring arrangement 3, the seat valve 8, which is shown in the illustration below, first becomes the one previously by means of the conical seat due to the discussed diameter ratio of the closing surfaces of the two seat valves 8, 9 Close the existing connection between the connections S (to the shut-off element (s), not shown) and (via the annular gap after the sealing seat) T (reservoir) - after a corresponding slight further pressure increase, the connection previously closed via the seat ball then becomes the port P and the port S opened, which activates the connecting element for pressure limitation. When the pressure at port P drops, the reverse happens.

Abgesehen von der dargestellten Ausbildung der beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 als Kegelsitzventil einerseits und Kugelventil andererseits, könnten diese Sitzventile natürlich auch in anderer für den Fachmann naheliegender Weise ausgebildet werden - abgesehen von der beschriebenen Abstufung der Aufeinanderfolge der Umschaltpunkte der beiden Sitzventile 8, 9 könnte diese Aufeinanderfolge beispielsweise auch durch eine auf eines der Sitzventile wirkende zusätzliche Federanordnung oder dergleichen realisiert sein.Apart from the illustrated design of the two seat valves 8, 9 as a cone seat valve on the one hand and a ball valve on the other hand, these seat valves could of course also be designed in a manner that is obvious to a person skilled in the art - apart from the described grading of the sequence of the switching points of the two seat valves 8, 9, this could Sequence can also be realized, for example, by an additional spring arrangement or the like acting on one of the seat valves.
