Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Stellantrieb mit drehzahlvariabler Pumpe, wie er beispielsweise in Dampfturbinen, Gasturbinen, Druckgussmaschinen eingesetzt wird. Stellantriebe sind im Stand der Technik bekannt So offenbart die
Diese Vorrichtung weist unter anderem folgende Nachteile auf: Der Ölkreislauf ist nicht abgeschlossen und benötigt ein recht großes Ölvolumen. Außerdem ist für die Funktion eine externe Druckversorgung erforderlich.This device has the following disadvantages, among others: The oil circuit is not closed and requires a fairly large volume of oil. An external pressure supply is also required for the function.
Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen und Abwandlungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.The object is solved by a device according to claim 1. Preferred embodiments and modifications are the subject matter of the dependent claims.
Der Zylinder kann beispielsweise zur Steuerung der Hydraulik einer Gasturbine oder Druckgussmaschine verwendet werden. Dabei wird der hydraulische Zu- oder Abfluss durch einen Verschluss, der an der Kolbenstange des Zylinders angeordnet ist, gesteuert. Bei derartigen Maschinen tritt die Situation ein, dass der der hydraulische Zu- oder Abfluss sehr schnell gesperrt werden muss. Für diesen sehr schnellen Abfluss der Hydraulikflüssigkeit aus dem Zylinder schaltet der Stellantrieb einen hydraulischen Pfad frei, der einen hohen Durchfluss der Hydraulikflüssigkeit aus dem Zylinder zu einer Senke gewährleistet. Die Senke ist Teil eines geschlossenen Hydrauliksystems. Sie kann beispielsweise als ein zur Umgebung abgeschlossenes Reservoir realisiert sein. Durch die Realisierung des Stellantriebs als geschlossenes Hydrauliksystem kann das benötigte Ölvolumen gegenüber dem Stand der Technik deutlich reduziert werden. Dadurch wird auch die Gefahr für die Umgebung - z.B. bei einer Leckage des Systems - vermindert, weil die geringere Ölmenge z.B. die Brandgefahr reduziert oder auch die Maßnahmen zur Vermeidung einer Verschmutzung vereinfacht, weil ein geringerer Raum zu umschließen istFor example, the cylinder can be used to control the hydraulics of a gas turbine or die casting machine. The hydraulic inflow or outflow is controlled by a closure that is arranged on the piston rod of the cylinder. In such machines, the situation arises that the hydraulic inflow or outflow must be blocked very quickly. For this very rapid outflow of hydraulic fluid from the cylinder, the actuator activates a hydraulic path that ensures a high flow of hydraulic fluid from the cylinder to a sink. The sink is part of a closed hydraulic system. For example, it can be implemented as a reservoir that is closed off from the environment. By realizing the actuator as a closed hydraulic system, the oil volume required can be significantly reduced compared to the prior art. This also reduces the risk to the environment - e.g. in the event of a system leak - because the lower quantity of oil reduces the risk of fire, for example, or the measures to prevent contamination are simplified because there is less space to enclose
Die erste Kolbenkammer des Zylinders wird durch die Hydromaschine oder Pumpe über die Hauptleitung gefüllt. Die Hydraulikflüssigkeit wird dabei aus der Senke entnommen. Um die erste Kolbenkammer schnell zu entleeren, weist der Stellantrieb ein Nebenleitung auf, welche einen höheren, insbesondere einen deutlich höheren, Querschnitt aufweist als die Hauptleitung. Diese Nebenleitung verbindet die erste Kolbenkammer mit der Senke.The first piston chamber of the cylinder is filled by the hydraulic machine or pump via the main line. The hydraulic fluid is taken from the sink. In order to empty the first piston chamber quickly, the actuator has a secondary line, which has a higher cross section, in particular a significantly higher cross section, than the main line. This bypass line connects the first piston chamber to the sink.
In der Nebenleitung ist ein hydraulisches Ventil angeordnet. Das Ventil kann in recht unterschiedlichen Ausführungsformen realisiert sein. Bei allen Ausführungsformen weist das Ventil eine erste Stellung und eine zweite Stellung auf, wobei die zweite Stellung einen größeren Volumenstrom des Hydraulikfluids steuert als die erste Stellung. So kann das Ventil in einer Ausführungsform eine erste Stellung "gesperrt" und eine zweite Stellung "Durchfluss" aufweisen. Das hydraulische Ventil wird durch hydraulische Aktuatoren gesteuert. Es kann von einem ersten hydraulischen Aktuator in die erste Stellung und von einem zweiten hydraulischen Aktuator in die zweite Stellung bewegbar sein. Dabei führt eine erste Steuerleitung zu dem ersten hydraulischen Aktuator und eine zweite Steuerleitung zu dem zweiten hydraulischen Aktuator.A hydraulic valve is arranged in the secondary line. The valve can be implemented in quite different embodiments. In all embodiments, the valve has a first position and a second position, with the second position controlling a greater volume flow of hydraulic fluid than the first position. In one embodiment, the valve can have a first position “blocked” and a second position “flow”. The hydraulic valve is controlled by hydraulic actuators. It may be movable to the first position by a first hydraulic actuator and to the second position by a second hydraulic actuator. A first control line leads to the first hydraulic actuator and a second control line to the second hydraulic actuator.
In der Hauptleitung ist in Reihe zu der Hydromaschine ein hydraulischer Widerstand angeordnet Die Reihenfolge der Anordnung spielt eine untergeordnete Rolle; so kann entweder die Hydromaschine oder der hydraulische Widerstand näher an der Senke angeordnet sein. Die erste Steuerleitung ist an der Hauptleitung, beispielsweise zwischen dem hydraulischen Widerstand und der Senke, angeschlossen, und die zweite Steuerleitung ist zwischen dem hydraulischen Widerstand und der ersten Kolbenkammer angeschlossen. Wenn die erste Kolbenkammer schnell entleert werden soll, dann saugt die Hydromaschine zunächst das Hydraulikfluid über die Hauptleitung aus der ersten Kolbenkammer. Zur Verdeutlichung sei angenommen, dass der Volumenstrom in der Hauptleitung allmählich erhöht wird. Bei einem vordefinierten Volumenstrom entsteht, abhängig von dem Volumenstrom, ein erhöhter Druck in der zweiten Steuerleitung, die zwischen dem hydraulischen Widerstand und der ersten Kolbenkammer angeschlossen ist Durch diesen erhöhten Druck bewegt der zweite hydraulische Aktuator das Ventil in die zweite Stellung. In einer Ausführungsform kann das Ventil dadurch von einer ersten Stellung "gesperrt" in eine zweite Stellung "Durchfluss" bewegt werden. Bei einigen Ausführungsformen kann die erste Stellung "gesperrt" die Ruhestellung des Ventils sein, in welcher das Ventil, z.B. mittels einer Ventilfeder, anfangs festgehalten wird. In diesem Fall muss durch den Druck am zweiten hydraulischen Aktuator mindestens die Gegenkraft der Feder überwunden werden.A hydraulic resistance is arranged in the main line in series with the hydraulic machine. The order of arrangement plays a subordinate role; either the hydraulic machine or the hydraulic resistance can be arranged closer to the depression. The first control line is connected to the main line, for example between the hydraulic resistance and the sink, and the second control line is connected between the hydraulic resistance and the first piston chamber. If the first piston chamber is to be emptied quickly, the hydraulic machine first sucks the hydraulic fluid out of the first piston chamber via the main line. For clarification it is assumed that the volume flow in the main line is gradually increased. At a predefined volume flow, depending on the volume flow, an increased pressure arises in the second control line, which is connected between the hydraulic resistance and the first piston chamber. This increased pressure causes the second hydraulic actuator to move the valve into the second position. In one embodiment, this allows the valve to be moved from a first "blocked" position to a second "flow" position. In some embodiments, the first "locked" position may be the rest position of the valve, in which the valve is initially retained, e.g., by a valve spring. In this case, at least the counteracting force of the spring must be overcome by the pressure on the second hydraulic actuator.
Dadurch, dass das Ventil - mittels des zweiten hydraulischen Aktuators - in die zweite Stellung bewegt wurde, erhöht sich der Volumenstrom in der Nebenleitung. In einer Ausführungsform, bei der das Ventil von einer ersten Stellung "gesperrt" in eine zweite Stellung "Durchfluss" bewegt wird, wird der Volumenstrom aus der ersten Kolbenkammer geradezu sprunghaft gesteigert. Durch diesen sehr schnellen Abfluss der Hydraulikflüssigkeit aus dem Zylinder schaltet der Stellantrieb einen hydraulischen Pfad frei, der den Zu- oder Abfluss, beispielsweise der Hydraulik einer Gasturbine oder Druckgussmaschine, sehr schnell sperrt. Dieser Effekt kann bei einigen Ausführungsformen noch dadurch verstärkt werden, dass in oder an dem Zylinder ein Energiespeicher angeordnet ist, z.B. in Form einer Feder. Diese beschleunigt sowohl den gesteuerten Zu- oder Abfluss als auch die Entleerung der ersten Kolbenkammer.The fact that the valve was moved into the second position—by means of the second hydraulic actuator—increases the volume flow in the secondary line. In one embodiment, in which the valve is moved from a first "blocked" position to a second "flow" position, the volumetric flow from the first piston chamber is increased in an almost abrupt manner. With this very rapid outflow of hydraulic fluid from the cylinder, the actuator activates a hydraulic path that very quickly blocks the inflow or outflow, for example of the hydraulics of a gas turbine or die-casting machine. In some embodiments, this effect can be intensified by arranging an energy store in or on the cylinder, e.g. in the form of a spring. This accelerates both the controlled inflow or outflow and the emptying of the first piston chamber.
Es ist im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung, wenn eine entsprechend abgeänderte Anordnung nicht zum schnellen Entleeren, sondern zur schnellen Befüllung der ersten Kolbenkammer verwendet wird. Ebenso ist es im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung, wenn eine entsprechend abgeänderte Anordnung nicht zum schnellen Öffnen des Ventils, sondern zu schnellen Schließen des Ventils verwendet wird.It is within the meaning of the present invention if a correspondingly modified arrangement is not used for rapid emptying, but rather for rapid filling of the first piston chamber. It is also within the meaning of the present invention if a correspondingly modified arrangement is not used for rapid opening of the valve but rather for rapid closing of the valve.
In einer Ausführungsform ist die erste Steuerleitung zwischen dem hydraulischen Widerstand und der Hydromaschine angeschlossen. Dabei ist hydraulische Widerstand also zwischen der Hydromaschine und der ersten Kolbenkammer angeordnet. Diese Ausführungsform wird bevorzugt für Stellantriebe gewählt, bei denen die Hydromaschine nur über einen druckfesten Anschluss verfügt. Der hydraulische Widerstand fungiert dabei also auch als Instrument zur Druckminderung.In one embodiment, the first control line is connected between the hydraulic resistance and the hydraulic machine. In this case, hydraulic resistance is between the Hydraulic machine and the first piston chamber arranged. This embodiment is preferred for actuators where the hydraulic machine has only one pressure-resistant connection. The hydraulic resistance thus also functions as an instrument for pressure reduction.
In einer Ausführungsform ist die erste Steuerleitung zwischen der Hydromaschine und der ersten Kolbenkammer angeschlossen. Diese Ausführungsform wird bevorzugt für Stellantriebe gewählt, bei denen die Hydromaschine über zwei druckfeste Anschlüsse verfügt.In one embodiment, the first control line is connected between the hydraulic machine and the first piston chamber. This embodiment is preferred for actuators where the hydraulic machine has two pressure-resistant connections.
In einer Ausführungsform ist der hydraulische Widerstand ein Blendenventil. Ein Blendenventil ist ein in der Hydraulik gut eingeführtes, robustes und einfach zu handhabendes Bauteil. Es ist in verschiedenen Ausführungsformen lieferbar und kann so gut an die Erfordernisse angepasst werden, insbesondere kann damit der vordefinierte Volumenstrom, der das Schalten des Ventils auslöst recht genau bestimmt werden. In manchen Ausführungsformen kann das Blendenventil auch variabel ausgestaltet sein.In one embodiment, the hydraulic resistance is an orifice valve. An orifice valve is a well-established, robust and easy-to-use component in hydraulics. It is available in various versions and can therefore be easily adapted to the requirements. In particular, the predefined flow rate that triggers the switching of the valve can be determined very precisely. In some embodiments, the orifice valve can also be designed to be variable.
In einer Ausführungsform ist der hydraulische Widerstand in die Hydromaschine integriert Dies ermöglich insbesondere eine besonders kompakte Bauweise des Stellantriebs. Bei manchen Ausführungsformen kann der hydraulische Widerstand bereits durch die Bauweise der Hydromaschine realisiert sein - z.B. wenn ein Innenwiderstand realisiert ist -, so dass kein zusätzliches Bauteil erforderlich istIn one embodiment, the hydraulic resistance is integrated into the hydraulic machine. This enables a particularly compact design of the actuator. In some embodiments, the hydraulic resistance can already be realized through the design of the hydraulic machine - e.g. if an internal resistance is realized - so that no additional component is required
In einer Ausführungsform weist die Senke zusätzlich zu der zweiten Kolbenkammer des Gleichgangzylinders ein Reservoir auf.In one embodiment, the sink has a reservoir in addition to the second piston chamber of the synchronous cylinder.
In einer Ausführungsform ist das Reservoir vorgespannt und insbesondere als Druckspeicher ausgeführt Dies sorgt für eine besonders kompakte Ausführung des Stellantriebs und spart Energie bei der Auffüllung der ersten Kolbenkammer.In one embodiment, the reservoir is preloaded and in particular designed as a pressure accumulator. This ensures a particularly compact design of the actuator and saves energy when filling the first piston chamber.
In einer Ausführungsform ist das Ventil ein Wegeventil, wobei die erste Stellung "gesperrt" und die zweite Stellung "Durchfluss" ist. Beispielsweise kann das Ventil als 2/2-Wegeventil realisiert sein.In one embodiment, the valve is a directional control valve, with the first position being "blocked" and the second position being "flow". For example, the valve can be implemented as a 2/2-way valve.
In einer Ausführungsform weist das Ventil mehrere Stellungen mit jeweils unterschiedlichen Querschnitten auf. Dies ist vorteilhaft, wenn der Stellantrieb eine komplexere Steuerung realisieren soll, die z.B. eine schnelle, aber dennoch weiche Steuerung des hydraulischen Zu- oder Abflusses des gesteuerten Gerätes.In one embodiment, the valve has a plurality of positions, each with different cross sections. This is advantageous when the actuator has a more complex controller is to realize, for example, a fast, but still soft control of the hydraulic inflow or outflow of the controlled device.
In einer Ausführungsform kann das Ventil stufenlos zwischen mehreren Stellungen mit jeweils unterschiedlichem Volumenstrom des Hydraulikfluids schalten. Dabei kann "stufenlos" auch "sehr kleine Stufen" bedeuten. Auch dies ist eine vorteilhafte Möglichkeit, komplexere Steuerungen zu realisieren.In one embodiment, the valve can switch steplessly between a number of positions, each with a different volume flow of the hydraulic fluid. "Infinitely variable" can also mean "very small steps". This is also an advantageous option for realizing more complex controls.
In einer Ausführungsform hat das Ventil die Stellung "gesperrt" als Ruhestellung, in der es, insbesondere durch eine Feder, gehalten wird. Damit wird zum einen die versehentliche Ansteuerung, z.B. die versehentliche Öffnung, des Ventils weitgehend verhindert Außerdem kann durch Wahl der Feder - insbesondere in Kombination mit einem definierten Blendenventil - der Schaltdruck des Ventils genau einstellt werden.In one embodiment, the valve has the "blocked" position as the rest position, in which it is held, in particular by a spring. On the one hand, this largely prevents accidental activation, e.g. accidental opening of the valve. In addition, the selection of the spring - especially in combination with a defined orifice valve - allows the switching pressure of the valve to be set precisely.
In einer Ausführungsform weist der Zylinder weiterhin einen Energiespeicher auf und/oder ist mit einem Energiespeicher verbunden. Der Energiespeicher kann beispielsweise eine Feder sein. Diese kann in der zweiten Kolbenkammer oder vor der ersten Kolbenkammer angeordnet sein. Mit einem derartigen Energiespeicher wird die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit des Stellantriebs deutlich erhöhtIn one embodiment, the cylinder also has an energy store and/or is connected to an energy store. The energy store can be a spring, for example. This can be arranged in the second piston chamber or in front of the first piston chamber. With such an energy store, the reaction speed of the actuator is significantly increased
In einer Ausführungsform ist in der Nebenleitung ein weiterer hydraulischer Widerstand, insbesondere ein Blendenventil, angeordnet. Dies sorgt für einen definierten maximalen Volumenstrom, wenn aus der ersten Kolbenkammer die Hydraulikflüssigkeit schnell abgelassen wird, d.h. insbesondere wenn sich das Ventil - zumindest für einige Ausführungsformen - in der zweiten Stellung "Durchfluss" befindet.In one embodiment, a further hydraulic resistance, in particular an orifice valve, is arranged in the secondary line. This ensures a defined maximum volume flow when the hydraulic fluid is quickly drained from the first piston chamber, i.e. in particular when the valve is - at least for some embodiments - in the second position "flow".
In einer Ausführungsform ist ein Rückschlagventil parallel zu dem hydraulischen Widerstand angeordnet Dadurch kann die erste Kolbenkammer schneller befüllt werden, weil die Füllmenge nicht mehr ausschließlich durch den hydraulischen Widerstand begrenzt wird.In one embodiment, a non-return valve is arranged parallel to the hydraulic resistance. As a result, the first piston chamber can be filled more quickly because the filling quantity is no longer limited exclusively by the hydraulic resistance.

Das Ventil 100 wird entweder durch die Ventilfeder 108 geschlossen, wenn der Volumenstrom ein vordefiniertes Maß unterschreitet. Oder das Ventil 100 wird mittels der Hydromaschine 50 geschlossen, wenn die Hydromaschine 50 das Hydraulikfluid von dem Reservoir 190, über die Leitungen 160 und 130, in erste Kolbenkammer 220 pumpt Dadurch entsteht ein höherer Druck am Aktuator 104, der das Ventil 100 in die Stellung "gesperrt" schaltet.
