Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hydraulic system, in particular for lifting and lowering of loads in forklifts with at least one working cylinder, the piston-rod unit movably guided in a housing and by means of a hydraulic pump in its one drive direction extendable and retractable in its other opposite drive direction and with a, control device for controlling the pertinent Verfahrschulen according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the prior art further hydraulic systems are known in which two connected to each other on the piston side working cylinder in the form of so-called plunger cylinders are connected to a conventional hydraulic pump.
  • the hydraulic pump may have two opposite directions of rotation in the form of a fixed displacement pump and thus two opposite directions of transport for the fluid medium used.
  • a user-controllable control device in the manner of a control block allows the actuation of the hydraulic pump, to whose drive a conventional electric motor is used.
  • the hydraulic pump removes fluid from a tank reservoir and pushes the removed fluid onto the piston side of said working cylinder unit.
  • valve unit of the hydraulic pump is connected downstream for the purpose of controlling pilot valves in order to be able to produce a fluid-conducting connection between the hydraulic accumulator and respectively assignable working cylinder of the working machine here in the form of a forklift truck.
  • the valve unit is a directional control valve
  • the fluid leading in a switching position Away releases between a tank connection and the hydraulic pump and in the other switching position establishes a fluid-conducting connection between the hydraulic pump and the storage device, in particular the load lifting movement from the storage device can perform energy assisted, resulting in a lower drive power for the hydraulic pump with its motor result.
  • the retrieved energy under high pressure level of the fluid from the storage device can also be used for faster traversing movements on the respective working cylinder, which in this respect benefits a rapid operation.
  • the use of the storage device overall a harmonious, smooth operation of the entire hydraulic system can be achieved. By simply reversing the rotation of the hydraulic pump, the amount of fluid displaced during the lowering of the load from the working cylinder can be inserted into the storage device to increase its pressure levels and retrieved from there again at the next working cycle.
  • the hydraulic system is used in particular for lifting and lowering of loads not shown in forklifts, such as forklifts or other industrial trucks.
  • the plant has two cylinders 10 on a conventional design, which is referred to in the jargon also with plunger cylinder.
  • Each working cylinder 10 has a piston-rod unit 12 which subdivides the respective working cylinder 10 substantially fluid-tightly into a piston side 14 and a rod side 16.
  • the two piston sides 14 of the working cylinder 10 via a connecting line designated as a whole 18 in fluid communication with each other in connection and connected to an operator-controlled control device 20 in the manner of a control block.
  • the rod sides 16 are supplied in a conventional and therefore no longer shown manner with fluid in case of need, the pertinent amount of fluid is clearly removable again from the rod side 16 as an annular space.
  • a valve unit 34 is connected in the manner of a 3/2-way or switching valve, which is shown in the figure in an actuating position, in which a fluid-conducting connection between the hydraulic pump 26 and tank 24 is shown.
  • a branch line 36 to a storage device 38 in the form of a hydraulic accumulator in the manner of a piston accumulator is shut off in this switching position.
  • a fluid-carrying connection between branch line 36 and In the case in question, the tank connection to the tank 24 is blocked.
  • the operator-controlled control device 20 is able to control both the hydraulic pump 26 and the valve unit 34 obvious.
  • For operating the hydraulic pump 26 is a conventional, not shown electric motor, which is so far actuated by the control device 20.
  • a measuring point 40 can also be connected to monitor system states between the control device 20 and the hydraulic pump 26 in order to carry out, for example, pressure monitoring of the system.
  • pressure monitoring of the system.
  • the stored energy in the memory device 38 is retrieved in the form of a high pressure level and supports the lifting movement by the memory retrieved fluid quantity is pushed to the piston side 14 of the respective working cylinder 10. In this way, a kind of energy storage can be reached, which can callably support the lifting process.
  • the hydraulic system according to the invention is characterized by the use of the storage device 38 in that short system and reaction times are possible at high extension and retraction speeds for the working cylinder 10 used, and the electric drive of the hydraulic pump 26 is relieved accordingly. Furthermore, it has been found that all working movements dampened by the energy input into the memory device 38 are harmonious and thus smoothly. Despite the cost overhead for the realization of the indicated memory device, the associated energy saving is more cost-effective, especially in long-term operation than in systems without storage device. Also, the transport or capacity performance of the hydraulic pump 26 can be reduced by the use of the energy storage device 38, which in turn helps reduce the manufacturing costs.
  • the hydraulic pump used have two directions of rotation; However, the two directions of rotation can also be realized by means of the electric motor. It is also possible to replace the mentioned fixed-displacement pump with a variable displacement pump and the electric motor can also be replaced by another drive device, for example by an internal combustion engine, preferably in the form of a diesel engine, a working machine or the like.
  • the hydraulic system according to the invention is not limited to use with forklifts, but can preferably always be used where it is necessary to apply positional energy with the respective working cylinder. A more obvious Use is accordingly possible in working machines, such as excavators, but also in the area of elevators and handling equipment (manipulators).
