Abstract

A mounting flange (4) is provided for connecting the operating device to the machine (1), which is provided with a machine flange (2). A number of electrical switches (7,8) are embedded in the mounting flange in a geometric pattern. Each switch is in a circuit connected to a sub-controller. Closing parts are arranged in the machine flange in an arrangement that characterizes the machine, so as to operate the switches at the respective points on the geometric pattern when the flanges are coupled.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein elektrisch gesteuertes Betätigungselement an einer Maschine nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1.The invention relates to an electrically controlled actuating element on a machine according to the preamble of claim 1.

Als derartige Betätigungselemente werden z.B. hydraulische, elektrohydraulische oder pneumatische Ventile, Elektromagnete oder Aktuatoren angesehen. Als Maschinen, die durch Ventile betätigt werden sind z.B. Zylinder - Kolbeneinheiten oder Motoren anzusehen.As such actuators, e.g. hydraulic, electro-hydraulic or pneumatic valves, electromagnets or actuators. As machines operated by valves are e.g. Cylinders - to look at piston units or engines.

Als Teilsteuerung kommt z.B. die der Maschine zugeordnete, einer Zentralsteuerung untergeordnete Steuerung in betracht, insbesondere bei Magnet - betätigten Ventilen die Magnetsteuerung.As a partial control, e.g. the control associated with the machine, which is subordinate to a central control, in particular magnetically actuated valves, the magnetic control.

Durch die EP 1 229 451 A1 (VALEO) sind Betätigungselemente nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1 bekannt. Hierbeiwerden an dem Montageplatz von so genannten Peripheriegeräten eine physische Adresse in Gestalt von Stiften, welche in bestimmten Mustern angeordnet sind, vorgesehen. Die Anordnung der Stifte stellt den Adressencode für den Montageplatz dar. Mittels eines Verbindungselementes, welches mehrere elektrische Leiter beinhaltet, wird das Peripheriegerät mit der physischen Adresse verbunden und dabei die Leiter unterbrochen, welche an der Stelle eines Stiftes liegen. Es wird nunmehr die Leitung oder Unterbrechung der entsprechenden elektrischen Leiter festgestellt und daraus die Adresse abgelesen. Die vorgeschlagene mechanische Adressierung des Montageplatzes ist im Falle eines jeden Peripheriegerätes nur einmal verwendbar und versagt, wenn Peripheriegeräte z.B. zum Zwecke der Reparatur, Reinigung oder Überholung zeitweilig entfernt werden oder gegen gebrauchte und überholte Geräte ausgetauscht werden.By the EP 1 229 451 A1 (VALEO) actuating elements according to the preamble of claim 1 are known. In this case, a physical address in the form of pins, which are arranged in certain patterns, are provided at the mounting location of so-called peripheral devices. The arrangement of the pins represents the address code for the assembly station. By means of a connecting element, which includes a plurality of electrical conductors, the peripheral device is connected to the physical address, thereby interrupting the conductors which are in the position of a pen. It is now determined the line or interruption of the corresponding electrical conductors and read from the address. The proposed mechanical addressing of the assembly station is only usable once in the case of each peripheral device and fails when peripheral devices, e.g. be temporarily removed for repair, cleaning or overhaul or replaced with used and overhauled equipment.

Im Bergbau bei dem Strebausbau werden derartige Betätigungselemente häufig in größerer Stückzahl angewandt, um eine entsprechende Anzahl von Maschinen, z. B. mehrerer identischer hydraulischer Zylinder-Kolbeneinheiten einer Vielzahl identischer Ausbaugeräte anzusteuern, um die Ausbaueinheiten zur Ausführung ihrer Funktion, insbesondere des Rauben, Schreitens, Setzen und Abstützen zu betätigen.In mining in longwall construction such actuators are often applied in larger numbers to a corresponding number of machines, eg. B. to control a plurality of identical hydraulic cylinder-piston units of a plurality of identical expansion units to operate the expansion units to perform their function, in particular robbing, walking, setting and support.

Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, die elektrischen Teilsteuerungen, die an jedem Betätigungselement, z.B. an jedem Ventil angebracht sind und in diesem Falle mindestens aus einem Elektromagnet bestehen, seriell, d.h. durch ein gemeinsames Kabel mit der Zentralsteuerung zu verbinden. Voraussetzung ist hierfür jedoch, daß die einzelnen Funktions- und / oder Kontrollbefehle stets mit einer Codierung abgesandt werden, welche von der angesprochenen Teilsteuerung erkannt wird, so daß nur diejenige Teilsteuerung anspricht, in welcher eine übereinstimmende Codierung gespeichert ist.It is expedient, the electrical part controls that are attached to each actuator, for example on each valve and in this case consist of at least one electromagnet, to connect serially, ie by a common cable to the central control. However, the prerequisite for this is that the individual function and / or control commands are always sent with a coding, which is recognized by the addressed part control, so that only that part control responds, in which a matching coding is stored.

Das bedeutet, daß nach der mechanischen Installation eines Betätigungselements, z.B. Ventils an einer bestimmten Maschine der jeweiligen Teilsteuereinheit eine bestimmte Codierung eingespeichert werden muss und daß in der Zentralsteuerung die Codierungen sämtlicher Ventile derart eingespeichert werden, daß die dem jeweiligen Ventil aufzugebenden Funktions- und/oder Kontrollbefehle nur mit der zugeordneten Codierung seriell abgeschickt werden. Es muss hierzu also sowohl in den einzelnen Teilsteuereinheiten als auch in der Zentralsteuerung eine Programmierung stattfinden, die nur durch Fachleute geschehen kann und die bei komplexen Anlagen mit einer Vielzahl von Maschinen und Funktionen sehr viel Zeit, Können und Umsicht erfordert.This means that after mechanical installation of an actuator, e.g. Valve on a particular machine of the respective sub-control unit a certain coding must be stored and that in the central control, the codes of all valves are stored such that the respective valve be abandoned function and / or control commands are sent only with the associated coding serially. For this purpose, programming must take place for this purpose both in the individual sub-control units and in the central control, which can only be done by specialists and which requires a great deal of time, skill and prudence in complex systems with a large number of machines and functions.

Durch die Betätigungselemente der EP 1 229 451 A1 wäre es zwar möglich, zumindest einen der zuvor geschilderten Arbeitsschritte zu vermeiden und hierdurch die Erstmontage der Betätigungselemente, z.B. Ventile an ihrer jeweiligen Maschine und die Zuordnung ihrer Teilsteuereinrichtung zu der Zentralsteuereinrichtung sicherer zu machen, jedoch würde bei der Montage das Bündel der Leitungen durch die Stifte des ersten Montageplatzes im Sinne einer bestimmten Codierung unterbrochenen, so dass nunmehr die weitere automatische Codierung nicht mehr möglich ist.Although it would be possible by the actuating elements of EP 1 229 451 A1 to avoid at least one of the previously described working steps and thereby to prevent the initial assembly of the actuating elements, e.g. To make valves on their respective machine and the assignment of their sub-control device to the central control device safer, however, during assembly, the bundle of lines would be interrupted by the pins of the first mounting place in the sense of a specific coding, so that now the further automatic coding is no longer possible ,

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, die aufgezeigten Vorteile auch bei der zeitweiligen Entfernung oder dem Austausch der Betätigungselemente zu erzielen.The object of the invention is therefore to achieve the advantages shown even in the temporary removal or replacement of the actuators.

Die Lösung ergibt sich aus Anspruch 1.The solution results from claim 1.

Es ist ersichtlich, daß die Verteilung der Schalter und der Schließelemente auf Befestigungsflansch und Maschinenflansch auch umgekehrt werden kann, wenn dies zur Zuordnung von Ventil und Maschine zweckmäßig erscheint Die Stromkreise liegen ständig und sämtlichst an einer Spannungsquelle, z.B. der Spannung der Steuerstromversorgung an.It can be seen that the distribution of the switches and the closing elements on the mounting flange and machine flange can also be reversed, if this appears appropriate for the assignment of valve and machine The Circuits are constantly and all at a voltage source, for example, the voltage of the control power supply.

Als Schließelemente werden vorzugsweise Magnete verwandt werden, welche ein stark gerichtetes Magnetfeld haben, um Streuung zur Seite zu vermeiden und eine eindeutige Zuordnung der Schließelemente an vorgegebenen Markierungsstellen des geometrischen Musters zu gewährleisten. Insbesondere kann es sich dabei um Topfmagnete handeln, bei denen ein zentraler magnetischer, permanentmagnetischer Kern von einer magnetischen Isolierschicht und sodann einem magnetisch nicht leitenden Topf umgeben wird.As closing elements magnets are preferably used, which have a strong magnetic field to avoid scattering to the side and to ensure a clear assignment of the closing elements at predetermined marking points of the geometric pattern. In particular, these may be pot magnets in which a central magnetic, permanent magnetic core is surrounded by a magnetic insulating layer and then a magnetically non-conductive pot.

Bei Anordnung eines Magneten an einer Markierungsstelle müssen so viele Markierungsstellen in dem geometrischen Muster potentiell vorgegeben werden, daß jedes der Ventile ausreichend charakterisiert werden kann. Dadurch daß in einem vorgegebenen geometrischen Muster mit einer Vielzahl von Markierungsstellen jeweils zwei oder mehr Markierungsstellen mit Magneten besetzt werden, lässt sich die zur Verfügung stehende Zahl möglicher Auswahlen von Markierungsstellen steigern zu der Summe der Anzahl von potentiellen Markierungsstellen. Wenn also z.B. 8 Reedschalter in dem Befestigungsflansch angeordnet werden und in dem Maschinenflansch zwei Markierungsstellen durch Magnete besetzt sind, so können 28 unterschiedliche Kombinationen hergestellt und z.B. als Zahlen ausgedrückt werden.When arranging a magnet at a marker, it is necessary to potentially set so many marker locations in the geometric pattern that each of the valves can be sufficiently characterized. By occupying two or more markers with magnets in a given geometric pattern having a plurality of markers, the number of possible selections of markers available can be increased to the sum of the number of potential markers. So if, for example, 8 reed switches are arranged in the mounting flange and two marking points are occupied by magnets in the machine flange, 28 different combinations can be made and e.g. expressed as numbers.

In einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung wird jedoch vorgesehen, daß das geometrische Muster in zwei oder mehr Teilmuster unterteilt wird, wobei jedes Teilmuster unabhängig von dem anderen Teilmuster mit jeweils einer oder mehreren Markierungsstellen belegt wird. In diesem Falle ist bei Belegung jedes Teilmusters mit einer Markierungsstelle die Anzahl der zu charakterisierenden Ventile gleich dem Produkt der potentiellen Markierungsstellen eines jeden Teilmusters. Wenn also z.B. 8 Reedschalter in jedem der Teilmuster des Befestigungsflansches angeordnet werden und in jedem Teilmuster eine Markierungsstelle durch Magnete besetzt wird, so können 64 unterschiedliche Kombinationen hergestellt und z.B. als Zahlen ausgedrückt werdenIn a preferred embodiment, however, it is provided that the geometric pattern is divided into two or more sub-patterns, each sub-pattern is occupied independently of the other sub-pattern with one or more markers. In this case, occupying each partial pattern with a marker, the number of valves to be characterized is equal to the product of the potential marker of each partial pattern. Thus, for example, if 8 reed switches are placed in each of the subpatterns of the mounting flange and a marker location is occupied by magnets in each subpattern, 64 different combinations can be made and expressed, for example, as numbers

In einer Weiterbildung, die insbesondere dann vorteilhaft ist, wenn derartige Maschinen wie z.B. hydraulische Geräte erst nachträglich einer bestimmten Funktion zugewiesen werden, ist vorgesehen, daß in dem Maschinenflansch ein, vorzugsweise zwei Träger angeordnet sind, in denen jeweils ein Magnet untergebracht ist Die Träger sind relativ zu dem Flansch derart verstellbar, daß die Magnete in auszuwählenden Markierungsstellen des vorgegebenen geometrischen Musters platziert werden können. Hierdurch kann dieIn a development, which is particularly advantageous when such machines such. Hydraulic devices are assigned only later to a specific function, it is provided that in the machine flange, preferably two carriers are arranged, in each of which a magnet is housed. The carriers are relative to the flange so adjustable that the magnets in selected marking points of the given geometric pattern can be placed. This allows the

Codierung des zu montierenden Betätigungselementes, z.B. Ventils nachträglich eingestellt werden. Die Träger sind vorzugsweise als drehbare Scheiben ausgebildet, die in Ebenen nahe und parallel zu der Flanschebene angeordnet sind, wobei vorzugsweise die Drehstellung der Scheibe durch Einrastung in verschiedenen Stellungen, welche jeweils einer Stelle des geometrischen Musters entsprechen, feststellbar sind. In diesem Falle werden selbstverständlich auch die elektrischen Reedkontakte in den Befestigungsflansch auf einem Kreis angeordnet, welcher dem Drehkreis der Magnete entspricht Generell ist hinzuzufügen, daß das geometrische Muster für die Anordnung der Schalter beliebig ist; es kann sich z. B. um eine Linie oder einen geschlossenen Kreis in vorgegebener Teilung handeln.Coding of the actuator to be mounted, e.g. Valve be subsequently adjusted. The carriers are preferably formed as rotatable discs, which are arranged in planes close to and parallel to the flange plane, wherein preferably the rotational position of the disc by latching in different positions, which correspond to a position of the geometric pattern, are detectable. In this case, of course, the electrical reed contacts are arranged in the mounting flange on a circle which corresponds to the rotation of the magnets is generally add that the geometric pattern for the arrangement of the switch is arbitrary; it can be z. B. to act a line or a closed circle in a predetermined division.

In der Zeichnung ist schematisch eine Flanschverbindung für eine Maschine und ein Betätigungselement dargestellt Als Maschine ist eine Zylinder - Kolbeneinheit 1 dargestellt, die einen Maschinenflansch 2 besitzt An diesen ist als Betätigungselement ein Magnet - gesteuertes hydraulisches Ventil 3 mit Befestigungsflansch 4 anflanschbar. Es sei erwähnt, daß die beiden Flansche in der Zeichenebene dargestellt sind, in der Flanschverbindung jedoch auf einander liegen. Der Magnet 5 des Ventils 3 wird durch eine Teilsteuereinrichtung 6 und diese durch eine nicht dargestellte Zentralsteuereinrichtung angesteuert. In den Befestigungsflansch sind eingebettet die Schalter 7.1 bis 7.8 und 8.1 bis 8.8, und zwar jeweils 8 Stück angeordnet auf jeweils einem der Kreise 9 und 10. Die Schalter liegen nahe der Verbindungsebene des Flansches 4.Jeder der Schalter 7 und 8 liegt in einem Stromkreis, der mit der Teilsteuereinrichtung verbunden ist. Wenn einer der Schalter 7.1 ff und 8.1 ff geschlossen ist, wird in der Teilsteuereinrichtung der Strom des entsprechenden Stromkreises registriert. In einem Speicher 11 der Teilsteuereinrichtung sind alle möglichen Kombinationen der Stromkreise mit Schaltern 7.1 ff. und 8.1 ff gespeichert. In einer Vergleichoperation werden diese Kombinationen mit der anstehenden Kombination von geschlossenen Schaltern verglichen und die übereinstimmende Kombination aufgerufen. Für jede der Kombinationen ist jeweils ein bestimmtes Codewort in dem Speicher hinterlegt. Dasjenige Codewort wird aktiviert, dessen Kombination aufgerufen ist. Das Codewort muß der Teilsteuereinrichtung eingegeben werden, wenn die Teilsteuereinrichtung einen bestimmten Funktionsbefehl oder Kontrollbefehl ausführen soll. Das Codewort kann z.B. in der Zentralsteuereinrichtung hinterlegt und automatisch gesendet werden, wenn über die Zentralsteuereinrichtung ein Befehl für diese Teilsteuereinrichtung bzw. das zugeordnete Ventil eingegeben wird.The drawing shows schematically a flange connection for a machine and an actuating element. The machine illustrated is a cylinder-piston unit 1 which has a machine flange 2. A solenoid-controlled hydraulic valve 3 with a fastening flange 4 can be flange-mounted on it as the actuating element. It should be noted that the two flanges are shown in the plane of the drawing, but in the flanged connection lie on each other. The magnet 5 of the valve 3 is controlled by a part control device 6 and this by a not shown Central control device controlled. Embedded in the mounting flange are the switches 7.1 to 7.8 and 8.1 to 8.8, in each case 8 pieces arranged on each one of the circles 9 and 10. The switches are close to the connection plane of the flange 4. Each of the switches 7 and 8 is in a circuit which is connected to the sub-controller. If one of the switches 7.1 ff and 8.1 ff is closed, the current of the corresponding circuit is registered in the sub-control device. In a memory 11 of the sub-control device all possible combinations of the circuits with switches 7.1 ff. And 8.1 ff are stored. In a comparison operation, these combinations are compared with the pending combination of closed switches and the matching combination is called. For each of the combinations, a specific code word is stored in the memory in each case. The code word is activated whose combination is called. The code word must be input to the sub-controller when the sub-controller is to execute a particular function command or control command. The code word can be stored, for example, in the central control device and sent automatically when a command for this sub-control device or the associated valve is entered via the central control device.

In die Verbindungsebene des Maschinenflansches 2 liegen als Träger 12 und 13 zwei Scheiben, in zusammen gebautem Zustand konzentrisch zu den Kreisen 9 bzw.10 des Maschinenflansches 4 drehbar, jedoch durch Rasten in einer von 8 Positionen 17.1 bis 17.8 bzw. 18.1 bis 18.8 feststellbar. Auf jeder der Scheiben ist auf einem Kreis, der in zusammen gebautem Zustand kongruent zu den Kreisen 9 bzw. 10 des Maschinenftansches 4 ist, jeweils ein Schließelement angeordnet derart, daß es in einer der Raststellungen in zusammen gebautem Zustand mit einem der Schalter 7.1 ff bzw. 8.1 ff zusammenwirkt und den betreffenden Stromkreis schließt.In the connection plane of the machine flange 2 are as carriers 12 and 13 two discs, rotatable in assembled state concentric with the circles 9 bzw.10 of the machine flange 4, but detectable by locking in one of 8 positions 17.1 to 17.8 or 18.1 to 18.8. On each of the discs is on a circle that is congruent with the circles 9 and 10 of the Maschinenftansches 4 in assembled state, each arranged a closing element such that it in one of the locking positions in assembled condition with one of the switches 7.1 ff or . 8.1 ff and closes the relevant circuit.

Es können nun z.B. in einem Streb sämtliche Zylinder - Kolbeneinheiten eines Ausbaugestells und die zugeordneten Ventile und die zugeordneten Ventilsteuerungen identisch aufgebaut bzw. programmiert werden. Bei der Montage der Zylinder - Kolbeneinheit wird durch die Scheiben 12 und 13 eine bestimmte Position von Schließelementen eingestellt. Die Kombination dieser Position ist charakteristisch für die Lage und Funktion der Zylinder -It is now possible, for example in a longwall, to construct or program all the cylinder-piston units of an expansion frame and the associated valves and the associated valve controls identically. When mounting the cylinder - piston unit is set by the discs 12 and 13, a certain position of closing elements. The combination of these Position is characteristic of the position and function of the cylinder

Kolbeneinheit in dem Ausbaugestell. Durch Montage des Ventils wird nunmehr eine charakteristische Kombination von Schaltern 7.1ff bzw. 8.1 ff geschlossen und dadurch in der Teilsteuereinrichtung dem Ventils ein bestimmtes Codewort zugeordnet. Dieses Codewort ist auch in der Zentralsteuereinrichtung diesem Ventil bzw. dieser Zylinder - Kolbeneinheit zugeordnet. Wenn dann von der Zentratsteuereinrichtung aus ein bestimmter Befehl an diese Zylinder - Kolbeneinheit gegeben werden soll, wird automatisch das Codewort aufgerufen und damit das eingegebene Befehlssignal an die zugeordnete Teilsteuereinrichtung weitergeleitet.Piston unit in the expansion rack. By mounting the valve now a characteristic combination of switches 7.1ff or 8.1 ff is closed and thereby assigned to the valve a specific code word in the sub-control device. This code word is also assigned to this valve or cylinder - piston unit in the central control device. If then a specific command to be given to the cylinder - piston unit of the Zentratsteuereinrichtung, automatically the code word is called and thus forwarded the input command signal to the associated part control device.
