Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Druckausgleich in den umsteuerbaren Hydraulikmotoren zum Antrieb der Hub- und Schließseile eines Seilkranes mit einem Greifer zum Aufnehmen von Schüttgut, wobei der den vorzugsweise zwei Hubseilen zugeordnete Hydraulikmotor und der den vorzugsweise zwei Schließseilen zugeordnete Hydraulikmotor jeweils über Druckleitungen mit einer gemeinsamen Druckmittelquelle verbunden ist.The invention relates to a method for pressure equalization in the Reversible hydraulic motors for driving the lifting and closing cables of a Cable crane with a gripper for receiving bulk material, the preferred two hoisting ropes associated hydraulic motor and the two preferably Lock cables associated hydraulic motor in each case via pressure lines with a common pressure medium source is connected.

Ein solches Seilkran ist bspw. aus des US 3 776 513 bekannt.Such a cable crane is, for example, from US 3,776,513 known.

Für den Umschlag von Schüttgütern werden vorliegend Greifer verwendet, d.h. Fördergefäße, die in das Fördergut eindringen, es fassen und aufnehmen und über der Abgabestelle wieder entleeren können. Die Greifer bestehen aus an einer gemeinsamen Traverse angelenkten Schaufeln, die geöffnet auf das Fördergut aufgesetzt werden. Durch das Eigengewicht des Greifers dringen die Schaufeln beim Schließen in das Fördergut ein und füllen sich dabei. Je nach der Art, wie das Schließen der Schaufeln durchgeführt wird, unterscheidet man verschiedene Greifertypen.For the handling of bulk goods, grippers are used in the present case, i. Conveying vessels that penetrate into the conveyed, take it and record and over the discharge point can empty again. The grippers consist of a common Traverse hinged blades, which are opened on the conveyed material become. Due to the weight of the gripper, the blades penetrate when closing the conveyed goods and fill up. Depending on the way how closing the Shoveling is performed, different types of grippers.

Die vorliegende Erfindung befaßt sich mit zwei Seilgreifem, bei denen zwei voneinander unabhängige Seile oder Seilpaare die Bewegung der Schaufeln bewirken. Werden Seilpaare zur Anwendung gebracht, spricht man auch von einem Vierseilgreifer. Dieser Greifertyp erfordert eine besondere Greiferwinde mit zwei Trommeln, die vorwiegend mittels umsteuerbaren Hydraulikmotoren angetrieben werden.The present invention is concerned with two Seilgreifem, in which two from each other independent ropes or pairs of cables cause the movement of the blades. If pairs of cables are used, this is also called a four-rope grab. This type of gripper requires a special gripper winch with two drums, the be driven mainly by reversible hydraulic motors.

Zwei- oder Vierseil-Greifer werden mit den zwei Seilen oder Seilpaaren bedient. Der geöffnete Greifer wird mit schlaffem Schließseil auf das zu greifende Gut aufgesetzt; durch Anziehen des Schließseiles werden über die Kinematik des Greifers die Schaufeln geschlossen. Um den Greifer unter der Wirkung seines Eigengewichtes in das Fördergut eindringen zu lassen, muß das Halteseil während des Schließvorganges oder von vomherein nachgelassen werden, nachdem die Schaufeln geschlossen sind, wird der Greifer bei weiterem Anziehen der Schließseile angehoben, wobei das Halteseil gestrafft werden muß. Daraus ergibt sich das Problem, daß während des Schließens des Greifers im Schüttgut die Halteseile Schlaffseil haben, und zwar mit bei jedem Hub unterschiedlichen Seillängen. Gleichzeitig sind die Schließseile durch den Schließvorgang sehr straff. Daraus ergeben sich sehr große Druckunterschiede in den Arbeitskreisen der beiden verwendeten Hydraulikmotoren für das Hubseil bzw. Hubseilpaar und das Schließseil bzw. Schließseilpaar.Two- or four-line grapples are operated with the two ropes or rope pairs. Of the opened gripper is placed with a slack closing rope on the material to be gripped; by tightening the closing rope are on the kinematics of the gripper the Shovels closed. To the gripper under the effect of its own weight in the conveyed material must penetrate the tether during the closing process or be weaned from the moment after the blades are closed, the gripper is raised with further tightening the strikers, wherein the tether must be tightened. This results in the problem that during the closing of the gripper in the bulk material have the tethers slack rope, with different cable lengths for each stroke. At the same time they are Locking cables very tight due to the closing process. This results in very large Pressure differences in the working groups of the two hydraulic motors used for the hoisting cable or hoisting cable pair and the closing cable or pair of strikers.

Schaltet man zum Umsteuem der Hubmotoren nach dem Schließen der Greiferschaufeln den Druckausgleich ein, so würde der Hydraulikmotor für das Schließseil zuerst in die falsche Richtung durchgezogen und es würde zu Kavitationserscheinungen im Hydraulikmotor kommen, wenn der Druck im Arbeitskreis des für das Schließseil vorgesehenen Hydraulikmotors zum Hydraulikmotor für das Halteseil herübergeschaltet wird. Häufige Kavitationen im System verursachen aber Schäden an den Hydraulikmotoren, die während des Arbeitsbetriebes des Greiferkranes ständig ein- und ausgeschaltet bzw. umgeschaltet werden müssen.Switches to Umsteuem the lifting motors after closing the gripper blades the pressure equalization, so would the hydraulic motor for the closing rope first pulled in the wrong direction and it would cause cavitation come in the hydraulic motor when the pressure in the working circle of the for Lock cable provided hydraulic motor to the hydraulic motor for the tether is switched over. Frequent cavitations in the system cause damage on the hydraulic motors, which constantly during the working operation of the gripper crane must be switched on and off or switched.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ausgehend von den beschriebenen Problemen und Nachteilen, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Druckausgleich in den umsteuerbaren Hydraulikmotoren zum Antrieb der Hub- und Schließseile eines Seilkranes der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, mit dem durch Kavitation entstehende Schäden an den Hydraulikmotoren sicher vermieden wird.Object of the present invention is, starting from the described Problems and disadvantages, a method and a device for pressure compensation in the reversible hydraulic motors for driving the lifting and closing cables of a To create cable cranes of the generic type with which by cavitation resulting damage to the hydraulic motors is safely avoided.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird verfahrensgemäß vorgeschlagen, daß während der Einleitung der Schließbewegung des Greifers der Arbeitsdruck im Arbeitskreis jedes Hydraulikmotors erfaßt und über eine Steuerung derart ausgeregelt wird, daß am Ende des Schließvorganges des Greifers an jedem Hydraulikmotor gleiche Arbeitsdrücke anstehen.To solve the problem is according to the procedure proposed that during the Initiation of the closing movement of the gripper the working pressure in the working circle each Hydraulic motor detected and regulated by a controller so that at the end the closing operation of the gripper on each hydraulic motor equal working pressures queue.

Mit der Erfindung wird eine Lösung angeboten, die große Druckunterschiede an den beiden den unterschiedlichen Seilen zugeordneten Hydraulikmotoren von vornherein verhindert, so daß es in den Motoren nicht zu den nachteiligen Kavitationserscheinungen kommen kann. Vielmehr wird bereits während des Schließvorganges des Greifers der im Arbeitskreis jedes Hydraulikmotors erfaßte Arbeitsdruck dazu verwendet, über eine Steuerung einen Druckausgleich herbeizuführen, so daß am Ende des Schließvorganges ein Ausgleich der Arbeitsdrücke stattgefunden hat. Wenn dann die Hydraulikmotoren umgesteuert werden, um nach erfolgtem Schließvorgang nunmehr den Greifer anzuheben, so ist ein weiterer Druckausgleich nicht mehr erforderlich.With the invention, a solution is offered, the large pressure differences to the Both of the different ropes associated hydraulic motors from the outset prevents it in the engines not to the adverse cavitation phenomena can come. Rather, already during the closing of the Gripper used in the working group of each hydraulic motor working pressure to to bring about a control pressure equalization, so that in the end the closing process, a balancing of the working pressures has taken place. If then the hydraulic motors are reversed to after completion of closing now raise the gripper, so is no further pressure compensation required.
