Definitions

  • the invention relates to a valve arrangement for the pressure medium supply of a hydraulic consumer according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • valve arrangements are designed, for example, in disk construction and used in mobile control blocks for controlling hydraulic consumers of mobile equipment, such as compact construction equipment such as backhoe loaders, mini and compact excavators, telehandlers.
  • a requirement of the hydraulic system of such mobile work tools is that the lowering of a large negative or pulling load is controlled.
  • so-called counter-holding or lowering brake valves are usually used on the outlet side, which generate in the return a bias voltage which acts against the main drive pressure, so that the load for the entire system is positive again and thus remains controllable.
  • Such a lowering brake valve as for example in the data sheet VPSO-SEC-42; 04.52.12-X-99-Z of the company Oilcontrol, a subsidiary of the applicant described, is in principle a check valve, which can be unlocked by the pressure in the inlet and allows for pressing load a controlled lowering.
  • the known lowering brake valve is designed with a pressure medium supply to the consumer enabling check valve and further designed as a seat valve, so that a-leakage-free support of the load is possible.
  • Another advantage of these known lowering brake valves is that they act as a secondary pressure limiting valve, so that the pressure in the return line can not exceed a maximum value set on the lowering brake valve.
  • Such lowering brake valves can in so-called LS control blocks, as shown in the DE 197 15 020 A1 or the datasheet RE 64 276 / 06.06 are removable or at LUDV control blocks according to the data sheet RD 64 125 / 07.05 Bosch Rexroth AG.
  • LUDV control blocks a pressure medium volume flow distribution independent of the load pressure and of the available volume flow to the various consumers of the mobile implement is ensured via the valve arrangement.
  • each consumer is associated with a directional control valve element with two consumer connections, which can be connected via a directional control valve with a LS pump or a tank.
  • the directional valve is continuously adjustable executed and has a speed part for adjusting the pressure medium volume flow and a direction part for adjusting the flow direction.
  • a pressure compensator Downstream of a variable inlet orifice forming speed part, a pressure compensator is provided, which is acted upon in the closing direction by the maximum load pressure of all consumers and in the opening direction of the pressure downstream of the inlet orifice, so that a load pressure independent volume flow distribution to the different consumers.
  • one of the above-described lowering brake valves can be provided in the return from the consumer. This lowering brake valve can be controlled by the pressure in the flow to the consumer to build the aforementioned backpressure.
  • each of the consumer connections is assigned a lowering brake valve, which are then aufberichtbar practically crosswise from the pressure at the other consumer terminal.
  • a considerable manufacturing effort is required to tap this to open the required return valve located in each return brake pilot pressure from the flow at the other consumer port.
  • From the CA 2 551 947 A1 is a circuit diagram of a mobile control block with valve arrangements known which serve to supply pressure medium of hydraulic consumers. These known valve arrangements comprise in a housing an adjustable inlet orifice plate and a directional part directional control valve, one of the inlet orifices associated individual pressure compensator and two unlockable load-holding valves. A pilot pressure for acting on the load-holding valves in the opening direction is tapped in a channel between the pressure balance and the directional part of the directional control valve.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a simply constructed valve assembly, with an uncontrolled drop in a consumer can be prevented.
  • the valve arrangement has a directional valve accommodated in a housing, which has an adjustable inlet orifice and a directional part
  • the adjustable inlet orifice plate is associated with a pressure compensator and in a return from the consumer a Senkbremsventil is arranged, which is acted upon in the opening direction with a pilot pressure.
  • a pilot pressure is tapped in a channel between the pressure compensator and the directional part, wherein the channel is an arc passage between a pressure compensator output and in each case an intermediate chamber of a flow-side or return-side directional part of the directional control valve
  • an already existing channel is thus used and only drilled, so that a complex ducting, for example, around the pressure compensator around to the return side consumer connection is not required. It has been found that the tapping of the pilot pressure in the region between the pressure compensator and the directional part over the conventional solution, in which the pilot pressure is tapped downstream of the directional part, brings no functional disadvantages.
  • the valve assembly according to the invention is preferably designed as a LUDV valve arrangement with the inlet orifice downstream pressure compensator, which is acted upon in the direction of a reduction of the opening cross section by the highest load pressure of all consumers and in the direction of increasing the opening cross section of the pressure downstream of the inlet orifice plate.
  • each consumer connection is associated with a lowering brake valve, which is acted upon in each case by the same pilot pressure. This is an essential difference to conventional solutions, in which the pilot pressure is tapped crosswise at the other consumer port.
  • valve arrangement is particularly compact if this pilot pressure acts on the front side on a pilot surface of the lowering brake valve, so that only a short channel has to be provided in order to connect the pressure chamber bounded by this pilot area with the arc channel.
  • the compactness can be further improved if the two lowering brake valves are arranged approximately V-shaped relative to each other in the housing, in which case the pressure compensator is preferably arranged approximately in the axis of symmetry between the two lowering brake valves.
  • the two connected to the load terminals of the valve assembly working ports of the directional control valve are connected in its basic position with a tank connection.
  • the structure of the lowering brake valve is particularly compact, when the check valve and the lowering brake valve are arranged on a common axis.

  • the basic structure of the directional control valve 1 according to FIG. 1 corresponds to a conventional LUDV-way block of the type SX, as described in the aforementioned data sheet RD 64 125, so that in the following only required to understand the application designs are made.

  • FIG. 3 on the left of the cone 104 subsequent projection of the closing body 102 carries at its end portion a pilot collar 128, the sealing in the in FIG. 3 left, stepped back end portion of the Senkbremsventilbohrung 98 is guided, so that an end-side pilot surface 130 is acted upon by the pressure in the arc duct 20.
  • the Senkbremsventilbohrung 98 is open to the consumer channel 33, so that the in FIG. 3 To the left of the valve seat 106 located region of the closing body 102 of the pressure in the consumer channel 33 acts.
  • the axial length of the recesses 118 is selected so that the in FIG. 3 left end face of the spring plate 108 is also acted upon by the pressure in the return channel 32.
  • the lowering brake valve 98 is acted upon in the closing direction by the force of the closing spring 52, wherein the spring plate 108 is pressure balanced, since both end faces are acted upon by the pressure in the return channel 32.
  • the pressure in the return channel 32 also acts on the differential surface of the closing body 102 corresponding to the valve seat surface.
  • the pressure in the arc channel 20 acts on the pilot surface 130 and the pressure in the consumer channel 33 on the surface difference between valve seat surface and pilot collar surface (characterized by valve seat diameter or pilot seat area) Pilot collar diameter).
  • the channel guide in the directional control valve element 1 according to the invention is extremely simple, since no additional channels for tapping a pilot pressure are required by the direct connection of the Senkbremsventilbohrung 96, 98 with the arc channel 20.
  • the pilot surface 130 had to be connected to the respective consumer channel 33, 35 via a channel guided around the pressure compensator 18, so that the housing 58 could be manufactured considerably more complexly.
  • the directional control valve 8 is moved to one of its marked with b positions, the valve spool 60 in the illustration according to FIG. 2 is moved to the right.
  • the connection between the inlet chamber 80 and the metering orifice chamber 82 is opened via the metering orifice control edge 72, so that the pressure medium flows via the pressure compensator 18 into the arcuate channel 20.
  • the pressure medium volume flow is determined by the inlet orifice aperture 10 set by means of the measuring orifice control edge 72 (see FIG FIG. 1 ) certainly.
  • the pressure medium connection between the intermediate chamber 84 and the working chamber 88 is controlled, so that the pressure medium enters the flow channel 34 and acts in the opening direction on the seat sleeve 120 of the check valve 48 of the lowering brake valve 44, so that the seat sleeve 120 against the force the weak spring 122 lifts off from the cone 104 of the lowering brake valve 44 and, without appreciable loss, permits a flow of pressure medium into the consumer channel 35 and from there via the working line 38 to the bottom-side cylinder chamber 42 of the consumer 2.
  • the hydraulic cylinder is extended, wherein the pressure medium displaced from the piston rod-side annular space 40 flows via the working line 36, the working port A to the lowering brake valve 46.
  • the load Upon adjustment of the directional control valve 8 in one of its positions marked with a, the load is lowered, so that pressure medium is displaced from the cylinder chamber 42 and conveyed into the enlarging annular space 40.
  • the uncontrolled drop is reliably prevented because at a sagging of the load, the pressure in the arc duct 20 drops and accordingly the lowering brake valve 44 is controlled to build the back pressure described above.
  • the working ports A, B of the directional control valve 8 are connected in the basic position with the tank 6.
  • directional control valves in which the two working connections A, B with respect to the tank 6 are shut off in the basic position, or they can also be the input port P and the tank port 6 are connected to each other in the home position.
  • the lowering brake valves 44, 46 can in principle be designed with a control surface acting in the closing direction, with spring space vented to the atmosphere or with a pressure compensation, in which the pressure in the channels 32, 34 has no effect on the lowering brake valve function.
  • a valve arrangement for the pressure medium supply of a hydraulic consumer with a directional control valve which has a pressure medium volume flow predetermining inlet orifice plate and a flow direction controlling direction part.
  • the directional valve is associated with an individual pressure compensator.
  • a lowering brake valve is provided, which is acted upon in the opening direction by a pilot pressure.
  • this pilot pressure is tapped in a channel between the pressure compensator and the directional part.
