Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pressure control valve for a hydraulic device with a valve body pretensioned against a valve seat and with a spring element for pretensioning the valve body. Furthermore, the invention relates to an advantageous use of the pressure control valve.
  • Pressure regulating valves are often used in hydraulic devices for deriving excess pressure from a container or a line and are known from practice.
  • the spring element is arranged on the side of the lower pressure. If the pressure on the side of the valve body facing away from the spring element increases, the valve body is pressed away from the valve seat against the force of the spring element.
  • the pressure at which the known pressure control valve opens depends on the pressure difference on both sides of the valve body and the spring force.
  • a disadvantage of the known pressure control valve is that the valve body requires lateral guidance in order to be reliably returned to the valve seat by the spring element.
  • the lateral guidance is costly to manufacture and causes friction. Such friction leads to fluctuating opening and closing pressures and to a fluctuation in the characteristic curve over the pressure control Leakage current dissipated by the valve.
  • the known pressure control valve has particularly high noise emissions.
  • the invention is based on the problem of designing a pressure control valve of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it has a flat characteristic curve and has the lowest possible noise emissions. Furthermore, an advantageous use of the pressure control valve is to be created.
  • the first-mentioned problem is solved according to the invention in that the spring element is arranged behind the valve seat, as seen from the valve body, and in that the valve body and the spring element are connected to one another via a tension element.
  • the spring element is arranged on the side with the higher pressure and pulls the valve body against the valve seat. Lateral guides of the valve body are thus avoided and friction of the valve body is kept particularly low.
  • Pressure control valve a particularly flat characteristic.
  • the pressure control valve according to the invention does not require any housing parts on the side of the valve body and can therefore be produced particularly cost-effectively.
  • the pressure control valve according to the invention has high stability and, as a result, low noise emissions.
  • the pressure control valve according to the invention has a particularly high stability if the tension element is designed as a rod connecting the valve body with a holding body.
  • the spring element could, for example, be designed as a tension spring. To further increase the stability of the pressure control valve according to the invention, however, it contributes if the spring element is designed as a compression spring and is supported on a component connected to the valve seat and the holding body.
  • the installation of the pressure control valve according to the invention in the hydraulic device requires a particularly low outlay if the component having the valve seat, the valve body, the spring element and the tension element form a preassembled structural unit.
  • the component having the valve seat has latching hooks on its outer lateral surface.
  • the pressure control valve can be simply pushed into a plastic housing, for example, and is held by the latching hooks.
  • the lateral surface preferably has a series of latching hooks and thus has a fir tree profile.
  • the opening pressure of the pressure control valve according to the invention can be easily adjusted by plastic deformation of the holding body if the holding body is designed as a calibration disk and if the calibration disk is deformable on the valve body to adjust the spring force is designed.
  • a basic setting of the pressure control valve to the intended pressure is preferably carried out by using an appropriately dimensioned spring element.
  • the adjustment of the spring force and thus the opening pressure of the pressure control valve according to the invention requires particularly little effort if the position of the holding body on the tension element and / or the spring element is adjustable.
  • the valve body can be manufactured particularly inexpensively if the valve body is spherical. Furthermore, the valve body is held in a central position by the flow when the pressure control valve is open, and is reliably pulled against the valve seat by the spring element. The valve body is thus centered independently of the valve seat. Therefore, the pressure control valve according to the invention does not require guide elements for the valve body which are complex to manufacture.
  • the valve body has a guide element arranged at a distance from its contact surface on the valve seat and transversely to the direction of flow.
  • the guide element is one Flattening of the valve body. This leads to a break in the flow at the valve body.
  • the guide element is designed in a ring shape and is connected to the valve body.
  • an additional force is introduced into the valve body. This leads to a particularly flat characteristic curve of the pressure control valve according to the invention.
  • the guide element has a smaller outer diameter than the component having the valve seat. This allows the invention
  • a flow stall and thus a vortex formation in front of the valve seat can be easily avoided if the cross-section of the valve seat has an arcuate contour opposite the valve body. This creates a particularly small circumferential gap length when the pressure control valve is open. As a result, the negative pressure that occurs when the valve flows through is particularly small, which leads to a low tendency of the valve body to suck. In the best case, the valve body has a line contact with the valve seat.
  • the valve seat could, for example, be designed to be rubber-elastic. However, this leads to hysteresis when opening and closing the pressure control valve.
  • the pressure regulating valve according to the invention enables a particularly small regulating quantity if the valve seat is designed to be inelastic. Furthermore, the valve seat can hereby be made in one piece with the holding part. Furthermore, this design enables high surface pressures on the valve seat.
  • the assembly of the control valve according to the invention is particularly simple if the holding part is inserted in a sealing manner in a housing connection piece and if a control inlet is arranged in front of the spring element as seen in the flow direction.
  • the second problem mentioned is solved according to the invention by the use of the pressure control valve in a fuel supply system of a motor vehicle for limiting a pressure within a container located in a fuel tank.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows a sectional view through a fuel supply system of a motor vehicle with a pressure control valve according to the invention
  • Fig. 4 shows a further embodiment of the pressure control valve according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows a fuel tank 1 of a motor vehicle and an internal combustion engine 2.
  • a swirl pot 3 with a fuel pump 4 arranged in it is arranged in the fuel tank 1.
  • the fuel pump 4 delivers fuel from the swirl pot 3 to a fuel filter 5 designed as a ring filter and to a suction jet pump 6.
  • the suction jet pump 6 pumps fuel from the fuel tank 1 into the swirl pot 3.
  • a fuel line 7 leads from the fuel filter 5 to the internal combustion engine 2.
  • the fuel filter 5 has a pressure regulating valve 8 which opens at a predetermined pressure within the fuel filter 5 and allows fuel to flow into the swirl pot 3.
  • Figure 2 shows the pressure control valve 8 of Figure 1 in a sectional view.
  • the pressure control valve 8 has a housing 9 with a valve seat 10 and with a control inlet 11.

  • the valve seat 10 surrounds the spherical valve body 13 and has an arcuate contour opposite the valve body in cross section.
  • the valve body 13 is connected to a holding body 15 via a tension element 14.
  • One end of a spring element 16 is supported on the holding body 15. With the other end, the spring element 16 is supported on a shoulder 17 of the housing 9.
  • the holding body 15 is designed as a calibration disk and pressed with the tension element 14 designed as a rod.
  • the holding body 15 can first be attached to the tension element 14 in an intended position and then plastically deformed.
  • An annular guide element 18 is fastened on the valve body 13.

  • a holding body 25 for connection to the spring element 23 is arranged on the free end of the tension element 24.
  • the valve body 22 is spherical on its side facing the valve seat 20 and has on its side facing away from the valve seat 20 a flattened portion designed as a guide element 26 for guiding the flow.
