Auch die dahingehenden Komponenten können vom Leistungsvolumen und der Größe her unterschiedlich ausgebildet sein und sinnfällig über das Kopplungsstück miteinander zur Komplementierung der Fluidpumpenvorrichtung verbunden werden.In addition to the possibility to integrate about the said placeholder in the manner of blanks in these obvious Fluidbaukomponenten to build a fluid control, in a preferred embodiment of the solution according to the invention further variation options are in each case frontally to the coupling piece to arrange a fluid pump, which within the tank unit is located and opposite the drive unit for the fluid pump is present.

Die in der Fig.1 dargestellte Vorrichtung dient dem Pumpen und mithin der Förderung von Fluid, insbesondere in Form von Hydraulikmedium, mittels einer Fluidpumpe 12, die von einer Antriebseinrichtung 14 in Form eines Elektromotors antreibbar ist. Die Fluid- oder Hydraulikpumpe 12 ist dabei als eigenständiges modulares Bauteil mit verschiedenen Arten von Antriebseinrichtungen 14 als weitere Bauteile in der Art eines Baukastensystems koppelbar und hierfür greift die Fluidpumpe 12 mit Antriebseinrichtung 14 in Blickrichtung auf die Fig.1 gesehen von der vorderen Stirnseite an ein Kopplungsstück 16 an. Als weitere Art von Bauteilen können verschiedene Hydrauliktanks 18 vorgesehen sein, insbesondere mit verschiedenen Tankvolumen, wobei der jeweilige Hydrauliktank 18 in Blickrichtung auf die Fig.1 gesehen von der vorderen Stirnseite her an das Kopplungsstück 16 angreift. Ferner ragt die Fluidpumpe 12, beginnend mit ihrer Anschlußstelle, am Kopplungsstück 16 in das Innere des jeweils angeschlossenen Hydrauliktanks 18 hinein. Der grundsätzliche Aufbau von Fluidpumpenvorrichtungen gemäß der Darstellung nach der Fig.1 ist im Stand der Technik bekannt, so dass an dieser Stelle hierauf nicht mehr detailliert eingegangen wird.The device shown in Figure 1 is used for pumping and thus the delivery of fluid, in particular in the form of hydraulic medium, by means of a fluid pump 12 which is drivable by a drive means 14 in the form of an electric motor. The fluid or hydraulic pump 12 is an independent modular component with various types of drive means 14 as further components in the manner of a modular system can be coupled and for this purpose the fluid pump 12 engages with drive device 14 in the direction of the Fig.1 seen from the front end to a coupling piece 16 at. As a further type of components, various hydraulic tanks 18 may be provided, in particular with different tank volumes, the respective hydraulic tank 18, as viewed in the direction of FIG. 1, engaging the coupling piece 16 from the front end side. Furthermore, the fluid pump 12 projects, starting with its connection point, on the coupling piece 16 into the interior of the respectively connected hydraulic tank 18. The basic structure of fluid pump devices according to the illustration according to FIG. 1 is known in the prior art, so that at this point this will not be discussed in detail.

Gemäß der Darstellung nach der Fig.4, die eine der Stirnansichten auf das Kopplungsstück 16 betrifft, verlaufen innerhalb des Kopplungsstückes Verbindungsleitungen 20,22,24,26 und 28. Ferner sind in die genannten Verbindungsleitungen Platzhalter 1 bis 10 als sog. Leerstellen integriert für das wahlweise Einsetzen von Fluidbaukomponenten 1 bis 10' gemäß der Darstellung nach der Fig.3.According to the illustration in FIG. 4, which relates to one of the end views of the coupling piece 16, connecting lines 20, 22, 24, 26 and 28 extend within the coupling piece. Further, placeholders 1 to 10 are integrated into the said connecting lines as so-called vacancies the optional insertion of Fluidbaukomponenten 1 to 10 'as shown in FIG.

Die Verschaltung von Verbindungsleitungen 20,22,24,26,28 mit den Platzhaltern 1 bis 10 ergibt sich insbesondere aus der Schaltplan- und Komponentenübersicht gemäß den Darstellungen nach den Fig.2 bzw. 3. An den jeweils mit 1 bis 10 bezeichneten Stellen der Schaltplanübersicht nach der Fig.2 können die Fluidbaukomponenten 1' bis 10' nach der Fig.3 treten, um sinnfällige Hydrauliksteuerungen zu erhalten, wie sie komplementiert in der Fig.5 als eine Ausführungsform wiedergegeben ist. Wie des weiteren die Fig.2 zeigt, ist der Schaltplan des Baukastensystems dadurch charakterisiert, dass die Verbindungsleitungen 20,22,24,26 und 28 innerhalb des Kopplungsstückes 16 derart miteinander verschaltet sind, dass zwischen zwei Anschlußstellen 30 einer Verbindungsleitung, in die jeweils eine benachbarte Verbindungsleitung mündet, mindestens ein Platzhalter 1 bis 10 integriert ist. Anstelle der Fluidbaukomponenten 1' bis 10' gemäß der Darstellung nach der Fig.3 können auch andere Fluidbaukomponenten treten, beispielsweise in Form von Filtern, Hydrospeichern, Kühleinheiten, Wärmetauschern, Kupplungs- und Abschlußstücke einschließlich Fluidverzweigungen und Meßgeräten, wie Druck- und Temperaturmeßgeräte (nicht dargestellt). Ferner besteht die Möglichkeit, anstelle der Fluidbaukomponenten 1 bis 10' andere Ventilbaukomponenten treten zu lassen oder an die bestehenden Komponenten weitere Komponenten (nicht dargestellt) anzuschließen. Die vorstehenden Bemerkungen machen jedoch deutlich, dass mit dem beanspruchten Baukastensystem in hohem Maße eine Variation an Steuerungsmöglichkeiten erreichbar ist, um den ständig wachsenden Kundenwünschen gerecht zu werden.The interconnection of connection lines 20,22,24,26,28 with the placeholders 1 to 10 results in particular from the circuit diagram and component overview according to the representations according to Figures 2 and 3. At the designated respectively with 1 to 10 digits of 2, the fluid components 1 'to 10' according to FIG. 3 can occur in order to obtain obvious hydraulic controls, as complementarily represented in FIG. 5 as an embodiment. 2 shows, the circuit diagram of the modular system is characterized in that the connecting lines 20, 22, 24, 26 and 28 are located inside the coupling piece 16 are interconnected such that at least one placeholder 1 to 10 is integrated between two connection points 30 of a connecting line, in each of which an adjacent connection line opens. Instead of the Fluidbaukomponenten 1 'to 10' as shown in Figure 3 can also occur other Fluidbaukomponenten, for example in the form of filters, hydraulic accumulators, cooling units, heat exchangers, coupling and terminators including fluid branches and measuring devices, such as pressure and Temperaturmeßgeräte (not ) shown. It is also possible, instead of fluid components 1 to 10 ', to allow other valve components to occur or to connect further components (not shown) to the existing components. However, the foregoing comments make it clear that with the claimed modular system, a wide variety of control options can be achieved to meet the ever-growing customer needs.

Wie sich des weiteren aus der Fig.4 ergibt, ist das Kopplungsstück 16 in der Art eines Anschlußflansches ausgebildet, an dessen einander gegenüberliegenden Stirnseiten zum einen die Fluidpumpe 12 und zum anderen ihre Antriebseinrichtung 14 angeordnet sind. Ferner schließt sich auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite die Tankeinheit 18 in Form des Hydrauliktanks an das Kopplungsstück 16 an. Des weiteren weist das Kopplungsstück 16 entlang seines, insbesondere vieleckförmigen (Vierkant) Außenumfanges Einmündungsstellen auf, die teilweise in die freien Enden der Verbindungsleitungen 20,22,24,26 und 28 oder in die Platzhalter 1 bis 10 einmünden und in die die jeweiligen Fluidbaukomponenten 1' bis 10' einsetzbar sind. Dabei besteht die Möglichkeit, gemäß der Darstellung nach der Fig.1 die jeweilige Fluidbaukomponente in der Art von Cartridge-Ventilen von außen in das Kopplungsstück 16 über die zuordenbaren Einmündungsstellen einzuschrauben oder bestimmte Fluidbaukomponenten, beispielsweise die Komponenten 5' und 7', beispielsweise in Form einer Blende oder einer Drossel, können bereits fest innerhalb der zuordenbaren Verbindungsleitung 22 bzw. 26 bereits integriert sein. Das Kopplungsstück 16 selbst kann gleichfalls einen modularen Aufbau haben, d.h. in der Art der Baugröße und bezogen auf die interne Fluidführung eine Baukomponente des Baukastensystems sein, um dergestalt noch weitere Variationsmöglichkeiten zu schaffen.As is further apparent from Fig.4, the coupling piece 16 is formed in the manner of a connecting flange, on whose opposite end faces on the one hand, the fluid pump 12 and on the other hand, their drive means 14 are arranged. Furthermore, the tank unit 18 in the form of the hydraulic tank adjoins the coupling piece 16 on the opposite side. Furthermore, the coupling piece 16 along its, in particular polygonal (square) outer periphery opening points, which partially open into the free ends of the connecting lines 20,22,24,26 and 28 or in the placeholders 1 to 10 and in which the respective fluid components. 1 'can be used to 10'. It is possible, as shown in FIG. 1, to screw the respective fluid component in the manner of cartridge valves from the outside into the coupling piece 16 via the assignable points of interchange or certain fluid components, for example, the components 5 'and 7', for example in the form of a diaphragm or a throttle, may already be already firmly integrated within the assignable connection line 22 and 26 respectively. The coupling piece 16 itself can likewise have a modular construction, ie be a structural component of the modular system in terms of size and with respect to the internal fluid guide, in order to provide even more variation possibilities.

Das Kopplungsstück 16 ist zentrisch von einer Durchgangsstelle 34 durchgriffen, und zwar in der Art einer Mittenbohrung, die dazu dient; dass ein Antriebsstrang (nicht näher dargestellt) der Antriebseinrichtung 14 die Fluidpumpe 12 antreiben kann. Eine Entnahmestelle 7 (vgl. Fig.4) stellt die Fluidverbindung her von der Tankeinheit 18 über die Fluidpumpe 12, um dergestalt bevorratetes Fluid entnehmen zu können. Die genannte Entnahmestelle 7 ist von den Verbindungsleitungen 20,22,24 und 28 umgeben, die zu der Entnahmestelle 7 teilweise einander gegenüberliegend senkrecht aufeinanderstehen (vgl. Fig.4).The coupling piece 16 is centrally penetrated by a passage 34, in the manner of a center hole, which serves to; a drive train (not shown in more detail) of the drive device 14 can drive the fluid pump 12. A removal point 7 (see FIG. 4) establishes the fluid connection from the tank unit 18 via the fluid pump 12 in order to be able to remove stored fluid in this way. Said removal point 7 is surrounded by the connecting lines 20,22,24 and 28, which are perpendicular to each other to the removal point 7 mutually opposite each other (see Fig.4).

Wie die Darstellung nach der Fig.5 zeigt, sind dort die Platzhalter 1 bis 10 mit Fluidbaukomponenten 1' bis 10' belegt, wobei die Komponente 1' als Fluiddurchgang konzipiert ist, 2' als einstellbares Druckbegrenzungsventil, 3' als federbelastetes Rückschlagventil, 4' als Abzweigung mit Anschluß einer weiteren Ventilbaukomponente 4.1', 5' stellt wieder einen Fluiddurchlaß dar, 6' ein 2/2-Wege-Ventil, 7' eine Blende, 8' einen sog. Minimeßanschluß und die Anschlüsse 9' und 10' sind mit fluiddichten Abschlußstopfen versehen.As the illustration in FIG. 5 shows, the placeholders 1 to 10 are occupied there with fluid components 1 'to 10', wherein the component 1 'is designed as a fluid passage, 2' as an adjustable pressure relief valve, 3 'as a spring-loaded check valve, 4' as branch with connection of a further valve component 4.1 ', 5' again represents a fluid passage, 6 'a 2/2-way valve, 7' an aperture, 8 'a so-called. Minimeßanschluß and the terminals 9' and 10 'are with provided fluid-tight closure plug.

Dadurch, dass das Kopplungsstück 16 weitgehend eine interne Fluidführung gewährleistet, sind etwaig auftretende Geräuschpegel durch das Gehäuse des Kopplungsstückes 16 gekammert, so dass ein sehr geräuscharmer Betrieb sichergestellt ist. Hierzu trägt auch mit bei, dass das Koppiungsstück 16 als Gußteil ausgebildet ist, was im übrigen eine kostengünstige Herstellung des Kopplungsstückes 16 ermöglicht. Wie des weiteren die Fig.4 zeigt, ist das Kopplungsstück 16 bezogen auf seinen Außenumfang im wesentlichen viereckig ausgebildet und in Blickrichtung auf die Fig.4 gesehen nach unten hin sind vorkragende Flanschteile 36 vorhanden zum Festlegen des Baukastensystems an feststehenden Gebäudeteilen oder vorzugsweise an weiteren Vorrichtungsteilen einschließlich Maschinenkomponenten.Characterized in that the coupling piece 16 largely ensures an internal fluid management, any noise levels occurring are chambered by the housing of the coupling piece 16, so that a very quiet operation is ensured. Contributes to this also in that the Koppiungsstück 16 is formed as a casting, which allows the rest, a cost-effective production of the coupling piece 16. As further shown in Figure 4, the coupling piece 16 is formed with respect to its outer circumference substantially square and seen in the direction of the Fig.4 downwards projecting flange 36 are present for fixing the modular system to fixed parts of the building or preferably to other parts of the device including machine components.
