Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hydraulic control arrangement according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a method for controlling a plurality of hydraulic consumers.
  • hydraulic systems are used in which these consumers are supplied via a pump with adjustable delivery volume with pressure medium.
  • a metering orifice and a pressure compensator is provided, the latter may be upstream or downstream of the metering orifice.
  • the pressure compensator is connected downstream of the metering orifice.
  • LUDV systems represent a subset of the LS systems in which the highest load pressure of the hydraulic load is reported to a variable displacement and this is controlled so that in the pump line to a predetermined pressure difference above the highest load pressure lying pump pressure is applied.
  • LUDV control arrangement as for example in the DE 10 2005 033 222 A1 is described, the adjustment of the pressure medium volume flow to the respective consumer via adjustable inlet orifices, which in each case an individual pressure compensator is assigned, via which the pressure drop across the respective inlet orifice can be kept constant.
  • the individual pressure compensators are arranged downstream of the metering orifices and throttle the pressure medium volume flow between the metering orifice and the load to such an extent that the pressure after all inlet metering orifices is equal, preferably equal to or slightly above the highest load pressure.
  • the pump pressure is applied in the same way, so that the pressure difference changes in the same way at all orifices if at a deficiency of the pump pressure is lower.
  • the pressure medium volume flow distribution (flow divider principle) is maintained between the inlet orifices of the driven consumers.
  • variable displacement pump is actuated as a function of the highest load pressure tapped via an LS line such that a pressure is established in the pump line which is above the highest pressure difference equivalent to the force of a control spring of a pump control valve Load pressure is.
  • EFM architecture Electronic Flow Matching
  • valves present for controlling the pressure medium volume flows are generally grouped together in a control block which is accommodated, for example, in the case of an excavator in the area of the superstructure.
  • the DE 199 09 480 A1 shows a hydraulic control arrangement from Japanese Patent Application 1-247805, in which also according to the load-sensing principle, the consumer load pressures on associated individual pressure compensators together with a respective spring in the opening direction act. Via a control, the pressure compensators are acted upon in the closing direction with a common control pressure.
  • the invention has for its object to reduce the device complexity for the realization of a hydraulic control system and to provide a simplified method for driving multiple consumers.
  • the hydraulic control arrangement is designed to supply pressure to a plurality of consumers with a variable displacement pump, via which pressure medium can be conveyed to each consumer via an adjustable inlet orifice plate and an individual pressure compensator associated therewith.
  • the individual pressure compensators are acted upon in the opening direction by the pressure downstream of the respective inlet orifice plate.
  • According to the invention acts in the closing direction of each individual pressure compensator, a control pressure which is adjustable via a central control unit.
  • a conventional LUDV architecture to the effect that the respective individual pressure compensators are no longer acted upon in the closing direction with the highest load pressure of the consumer, but with a set via a control unit control pressure. It therefore eliminates the need to tap the LS pressure to the respective consumers and lead over a common LS channel in the control block to the individual pressure compensators.
  • a division of the control block into individual valve discs is possible, which can then be arranged decentralized to or near the consumers.
  • the decentralized arrangement has the advantage that the consumers can be supplied via a common high and low pressure line. Compared to a conventional LUDV architecture with a central control block, in which each consumer is at least supplied with its own high-pressure line, this represents a considerable saving Hydraulic lines dar. With the elimination of the need to tap the LS pressure of the consumer, can also be dispensed with conventional LS lines. Furthermore, there is no need to determine the highest of the LS pressures via a shuttle valve cascade.
  • the individual pressure compensators acting in the closing direction control pressures are the same, so that the device engineering and control engineering effort is further reduced. Due to the function of the individual pressure compensators, the same pressure results downstream of the inlet metering orifices due to the same control pressures. This is at least equal to the control pressure or larger. Since the pump pressure is present in front of each inlet orifice plate, the pressure drop at each of the inlet orifices is thus the same, resulting in the load pressure-independent flow distribution (LUDV).
  • LUDV load pressure-independent flow distribution
  • the individual pressure compensators are designed with a position transducer, which is inexpensive compared to the conventional means for load pressure determination discussed above.
  • Opening cross-sections or these corresponding strokes are set to the individual pressure compensators in a known manner depending on the pressure drop across the respective pressure compensator.
  • a change in the load pressures or a change in the pressure downstream of the Zulaufmessblenden thus leads to a movement of the affected individual pressure compensators and thus to changed opening cross-sections.
  • the stroke of the individual pressure compensator is thus a measure of the load pressure assigned to it. Since the individual pressure compensators are subjected to the same control pressure, the load pressures of a comparison of the strokes of the individual pressure compensators are comparable to one another in a particularly simple and advantageous manner.
  • the individual pressure balance of the load pressure highest consumer has the largest opening cross section and the corresponding stroke and is characterized by this identifiable.
  • control pressure is adjusted such that this individual pressure compensator is set to a desired opening position below its maximum opening cross-section, and the individual pressure compensators of the lower-load consumers are set to a smaller opening cross-section. In this way it is prevented that the load pressure highest consumer associated individual pressure balance is completely open and thus a control function is no longer possible. It may also be necessary to adjust the flow rate of the pump via the control unit accordingly.
  • the control arrangement according to the invention can be implemented particularly simply if the adjustment of the control pressure takes place via pressure reducing valves, by means of which the pressure regulated by the variable displacement pump upstream of the inlet metering orifice can be reduced to the predetermined control pressure.
  • the pressure drop across the inlet orifices can be directly preset via the control unit and the pressure reducing valves it controls.
  • the pressure drop across the inlet orifice plates is greater, the lower the control pressure is, or the more the pressure regulated by the variable displacement pump is throttled by the pressure reducing valves.
  • the pressure reducing valves are electrically or electro-hydraulically adjustable via the control unit.
  • the pressure drop across the pressure reducing valve or via the associated inlet orifice can be increased.
  • the control pressure is set as a function of the stroke of the load pressure highest consumer associated individual pressure compensator.
  • the control pressure is adjusted so that the stroke or, in other words, the opening cross section of the individual pressure compensator does not reach its maximum value, but is just below it.
  • the adjustment of the control pressure is preferably carried out as a function of the stroke of the load pressure highest consumer associated with individual pressure compensator.
  • control pressure is set in the individual pressure compensators associated with this priority consumers such that the pressure difference across the associated inlet orifice at Substantial remains substantially constant, so that a sufficient pressure medium supply of the priority consumer is guaranteed.
  • control arrangement is implemented as a decentralized solution, in which the individual pressure compensators, the pressure reducing valves and the inlet metering orifices are arranged decentrally in the region of the respective consumer. In this way, the device-technical effort for tubing - as explained above - significantly reduce.
  • variable displacement pump is preferably designed with an electro-proportional swivel angle control, so that it is adjustable in dependence on a signal of a control device, such as a joystick, and thus eliminates the need to tap the highest load pressure of the consumer and lead to the pump regulator.
  • control arrangement according to the invention can be realized particularly advantageously in mobile hydraulics, for example in working cylinders of a mobile implement, for example an excavator.
  • a method according to the invention serves to control a plurality of hydraulic consumers, each of which is in pressure fluid communication with a variable displacement pump via an individual pressure compensator and an inlet metering orifice.
  • the individual pressure compensators are in the opening direction of a pressure downstream of the associated inlet orifices and in the closing direction of a control pressure applied.
  • the control pressure is set via a control unit.
  • the inventive method thus solves the conventional use of a LS-pressure for a LUDV method.
  • the "substitution" of the LS pressure to be determined by the suitably adjustable control pressure according to the invention opens up the possibility, compared to the prior art, of creating considerably less expensive control arrangements in terms of the apparatus.
  • the substitution implies that the need for LS lines and a cascade of shuttle valves for determining a highest of the LS pressures is eliminated.
  • the elimination of the shuttle valve cascade is a division of a conventional central control block into individual decentralized valve discs, which can be arranged at or near the consumers, made possible with advantage. Via the decentralized arrangement, the consumers can be supplied in sequence via a common high and low pressure line.
  • each consumer when using a conventional LS-pressure-based LUDV method with a central control block, each consumer must be supplied with their own high-pressure line.
  • decentralized valve discs would also be possible using a conventional LS-pressure-based method, but the shuttle valve cascade would then be spatially distributed to the individual consumers, which would represent a significant piping expense.
  • the determination of the highest load pressure could alternatively be made in a known manner with the help of electronic pressure sensors with high accuracy.
  • Opening cross-sections or these corresponding strokes are set to the individual pressure compensators in a known manner depending on the pressure drop across the respective pressure compensator.
  • a change in the load pressure situation or a change in the pressure downstream of the Zulaufmessblenden thus leads to a movement of the individual pressure compensator affected by the change and thus to the changed opening cross-section.
  • the control pressures, which are applied to the individual pressure compensators the same, so that the opening cross-sections as a measure of the load pressures of the individual pressure compensators on particularly simple and advantageous manner are comparable to each other.
  • the suitable value of the control pressure is preferably set via the control unit as a function of the opening cross sections or strokes of the individual pressure compensators.
  • the method according to the invention preferably has a step "determining opening cross sections of the individual pressure compensators" before setting the control pressure.
  • the individual pressure balance of the load pressure highest consumer has the largest opening cross-section or the corresponding stroke and is thus identifiable over this.
  • the adjustment of the control pressure via the control unit then takes place particularly preferably as a function of that individual pressure balance which has the largest of the opening cross sections or the stroke corresponding thereto.

  • the method according to the invention preferably has a step "determining a deviation of the largest of the opening cross-sections from a desired value". The step "setting the control pressure via the control unit” then takes place as a function of the determined deviation from the setpoint.

  • the step "setting of the control pressure via the control unit” preferably takes place via pressure reducing valves controlled by the control unit. These throttle a pump pressure established by the pump to the control pressure.

  • the stroke x of the individual pressure is then detected by the transducer 72, 74 and then out of a comparator of the maximum stroke value x max of the driven individual pressure compensators 52, determined 54th This maximum value is compared with a desired stroke x soll stored in the memory of the control unit 22 and a signal is output via the control unit 22 when the stroke x max of the most widely open individual pressure compensator 54 is greater than the desired value. In this case, the control function of the widest open individual pressure compensator is no longer guaranteed.
  • a signal is then output via the control unit 22 to the pressure reducing valves 60, 62 in order to increase the pressure in the control line 56, 58 and thus to adjust the load pressure highest individual pressure compensator 54 in the closing direction until the setpoint stroke x soll is reached.
  • variable displacement pump 20 and inlet orifices 48, 50 the response of the system is improved by the almost simultaneous activation of variable displacement pump 20 and inlet orifices 48, 50.
  • a control arrangement for controlling a plurality of hydraulic consumers and a method for controlling the consumers, wherein each consumer an inlet orifice plate and an individual pressure compensator are assigned. This is acted upon in the closing direction by a controllable via a control unit control pressure.
