Die Aufgabe wird durch eine hydraulische Steueranordnung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 und eine Druckwaage mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 15 gelöst.The object is achieved by a hydraulic control arrangement having the features of
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine hydraulische Steueranordnung zur Ansteuerung von zumindest zwei Verbrauchern vorgesehen, die über eine Pumpe mit einstellbarer Fördermenge mit Druckmittel versorgbar sind und denen jeweils eine verstellbare Zumessblende zugeordnet ist. Diese hydraulische Steueranordnung wird bevorzugt bei mobilen Arbeitsgeräten eingesetzt und hat einen Power-Beyond-Anschluss zum Anschließen eines Power-Beyond-Verbrauchers sowie eine Eingangsdruckwaage, die der Pumpe nachgeschaltet ist. Über diese Eingangsdruckwaage ist eine Verbindung zum Tank aufsteuerbar und diese ist in Abhängigkeit von einem Lastdruck der Verbraucher oder des zumindest einen Power-Beyond-Verbrauchers einstellbar. Durch die Anordnung der Eingangsdruckwaage im Druckmittelströmungspfad zwischen der Pumpe und zumindest einem der Verbraucher und aufgrund des Abzweigens des Power-Beyond-Anschlusses von einem Druckmittelströmungspfad zwischen Pumpe und Eingangsdruckwaage ist eine priorisierte Versorgung des Power-Beyond-Verbrauchers gewährleistet.According to the invention, a hydraulic control arrangement is provided for controlling at least two consumers, which can be supplied with pressure medium via a pump with adjustable flow rate and to which an adjustable metering orifice is assigned in each case. This hydraulic control arrangement is preferably used in mobile work equipment and has a power beyond connection for connecting a power beyond consumer and an input pressure compensator, which is connected downstream of the pump. About this inlet pressure compensator, a connection to the tank can be opened and this is adjustable in response to a load pressure of the consumer or the at least one power beyond consumer. The arrangement of the inlet pressure compensator in the pressure medium flow path between the pump and at least one of the consumers and due to the branching of the power beyond connection of a pressure medium flow path between the pump and the inlet pressure compensator, a prioritized supply of the power beyond consumer is ensured.
Die Pumpe ist bevorzugt in Abhängigkeit von der Einstellung der Eingangsdruckwaage ansteuerbar, so dass eine bedarfsgerechte Versorgung der Verbraucher erfolgt. Insbesondere erfolgt eine Ansteuerung der Pumpe in Abhängigkeit von der Position eines Steuerkolbens der Eingangsdruckwaage, wodurch eine genaue Regelung kostengünstig möglich ist.The pump is preferably controlled as a function of the setting of the inlet pressure compensator, so that a demand-based supply of consumers takes place. In particular, a control of the pump in response to the position of a control piston of the inlet pressure compensator, whereby an accurate control is inexpensive possible.
Eine Ansteuerung der Pumpe in Abhängigkeit vom Volumenstrom an einem Anschluss der Eingangsdruckwaage ermöglicht das direkte Abgreifen von hydraulischen Parametern zur gezielten Beeinflussung der Pumpenregelung mit guten dynamischen Eigenschaften.Actuation of the pump as a function of the volume flow at a connection of the inlet pressure compensator enables the direct selection of hydraulic parameters for targeted influencing of the pump control with good dynamic properties.
Als Parameter für die Pumpen-Ansteuerung ist auch ein Signal zur Ansteuerung der Zumessblende zumindest eines Verbrauchers einsetzbar. Damit muss die Lage- und/oder Reststromregelung der Eingangsdruckwaage nur noch relativ geringe Regelabweichungen ausgleichen.As a parameter for the pump control is also a signal for controlling the metering orifice at least one Usable by the consumer. Thus, the position and / or residual flow control of the inlet pressure compensator only has to compensate for relatively small control deviations.
Es wird bevorzugt, dass der größte der Lastdrücke die Eingangsdruckwaage in Schließrichtung beaufschlagt, so dass das Load-Sensing-System der Verbraucher auch für den Power-Beyond-Verbraucher nutzbar ist.It is preferred that the largest of the load pressures act on the inlet pressure compensator in the closing direction, so that the load sensing system of the consumer can also be used by the power beyond consumer.
Entsprechend einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung sperrt die Eingangsdruckwaage in einer federvorgespannten Grundstellung die Verbindung zu zumindest einem Verbraucher und dem Tank ab und steuert diese bei Verstellen in Öffnungsrichtung die Verbindung zu zumindest einem der zwei Verbraucher und bei weiterem Verstellen in Öffnungsrichtung die Verbindung zum Tank auf. Eine hinreichende Versorgung aller Verbraucher ist dann sichergestellt, wenn der Restvolumenstrom über die aufgesteuerte Eingangsdruckwaage zum Tank abströmt.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention closes the inlet pressure compensator in a spring-biased position the connection to at least one consumer and the tank and controls this when adjusting in the opening direction, the connection to at least one of the two consumers and further adjustment in the opening direction, the connection to the tank. A sufficient supply of all consumers is ensured when the residual volume flow flows through the controlled inlet pressure compensator to the tank.
Die Eingangsdruckwaage ist vorzugsweise in Schließrichtung von der Kraft zumindest einer Feder und vom größten der Lastdrücke und in Öffnungsrichtung vom Druck am Eingang der Eingangsdruckwaage beaufschlagt.The inlet pressure compensator is preferably acted upon in the closing direction by the force of at least one spring and by the largest of the load pressures and in the opening direction by the pressure at the inlet of the inlet pressure compensator.
Bei einer bevorzugten Steueranordnung ist die Eingangsdruckwaage in Schließrichtung und zum Umschalten der Regeldruckdifferenz mit einem Federpaket oder einer Progressivfeder versehen, wodurch eine wegabhängige Änderung der Federkraft auf einen Steuerkolben der Eingangsdruckwaage realisierbar ist.In a preferred control arrangement, the inlet pressure compensator is provided in the closing direction and for switching the control pressure difference with a spring assembly or a progressive spring, whereby a path-dependent change in the spring force on a control piston of the inlet pressure compensator can be realized.
Entsprechend einer weiteren bevorzugten Weiterbildung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Steueranordnung zum Anheben der Regeldruckdifferenz mit einer Einrichtung zur Vergrößerung der Vorspannung der Feder versehen, die diese Vergrößerung mechanisch, hydraulisch oder elektrisch bewirkt. Damit ist eine Anpassung der Ansteuerung der Eingangsdruckwaage an spezielle konstruktive Gegebenheiten möglich und die Ansteuerung des Steuerkolbens der Eingangsdruckwaage lässt sich auch über größere Entfernungen durch die Bedienperson eines Arbeitsgerätes realisieren.According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the control arrangement is provided for raising the control pressure difference with a device for increasing the bias of the spring, this Magnification mechanically, hydraulically or electrically effected. This adaptation of the control of the inlet pressure compensator to special design conditions is possible and the control of the control piston of the inlet pressure compensator can be realized over longer distances by the operator of a working device.
Die Pumpe ist bevorzugt eine elektrisch steuerbare Verstellpumpe oder eine drehzahlgeregelte Konstantpumpe, wodurch die Pumpenregelung kostengünstig umsetzbar ist.The pump is preferably an electrically controllable variable displacement pump or a variable speed fixed displacement pump, whereby the pump control is inexpensive to implement.
Es ist besonders vorteilhaft, wenn jeder Zumessblende eine Individualdruckwaage vorgeschaltet ist, die in Öffnungsrichtung vom jeweils zugehörigen Lastdruck des zugeordneten Verbrauchers und einer Druckwaagefeder und in Schließrichtung vom Druck am Ausgang der Individualdruckwaage beaufschlagbar ist. Das Ergebnis ist ein schnell ansprechendes Load-Sensing-System.It is particularly advantageous if each metering orifice is preceded by an individual pressure balance, which can be acted upon in the opening direction by the respectively associated load pressure of the associated consumer and a pressure compensating spring and in the closing direction by the pressure at the outlet of the individual pressure compensator. The result is a responsive load-sensing system.
Die Zumessblenden werden bevorzugt durch elektrisch, hydraulisch oder mechanisch verstellbare Wegeventile gebildet.The metering orifices are preferably formed by electrically, hydraulically or mechanically adjustable directional control valves.
Erfindungsgemäß ist ferner eine Druckwaage für eine der vorstehenden Steueranordnungen vorgesehen, wobei der Steuerkolben dieser Druckwaage in Schließrichtung von einer Druckwaagenfederanordnung und in Öffnungsrichtung von einem Lastdruck beaufschlagbar ist.

This pressure compensating spring arrangement preferably has two springs which can be brought into engagement one after the other, which allow small installation spaces for the inlet pressure compensator.
Entsprechend einem erfindungsgemäßen Steuerverfahren wird die Regeldruckdifferenz an der Eingangsdruckwaage mit Zuschalten des Power-Beyond-Verbrauchers angehoben, so dass neben der Priorisierung des Power-Beyond-Verbrauchers zugleich eine Anhebung der Regeldruckdifferenz gewährleistet ist, um damit einen sicheren Betrieb von Aufbaugeräten zu ermöglichen, auch bei erhöhten Druckabfällen im Leitungssystem zum Anbaugerät.According to a control method according to the invention, the control pressure difference is raised at the inlet pressure compensator with switching on of the power beyond consumer, so that in addition to the prioritization of the power beyond consumer at the same time an increase in the control pressure difference is ensured in order to allow safe operation of body equipment, even with increased pressure drops in the line system to the attachment.
