  • the working apparatus may comprise, in particular, a load lifting apparatus, such as a winch, whose pulling member comprises the hydraulic motor.
  • the control device 1 may be used, as said, for controlling the hydraulic motor M (however it could be used for other actuators, such as for an excavator hydraulic cylinder).
  • the control device 1 may be used in particular when a high calibration control valve needs to be used, such as to enable to safely open the control valve and unlock the brake (such as, for instance, the hydraulic parking brake 20) which is normally present in case a hydraulic motor is used.

  • the piloting fluid entering the control device 1 through the pilot opening P is a part of the pressured fluid supplying the hydraulic motor M.
  • the piloting fluid shall reach the piloting chamber 9 with such a piloting pressure as to exert an axial force on the auxiliary piston 13 which, in turn, will exert an axial force on the main piston 5.
  • piloting chamber 9 is in fluid communication with the pilot opening P through piloting shutter means 10 and throttling means 11.
  • auxiliary chamber 15 is in fluid communication with the first opening 3 (or with the external environment), thereby the pressure in the auxiliary chamber 15 is substantially equal to the pressure in the first opening 3.
  • the pilot opening P is in fluid communication with the service opening 21 through the selector valve 19.
  • the main piston 5 may be configured such to start moving in the axial opening direction by performing a pre-run without opening, in this initial pre-run step, the passage section of the cavity inside the valve body 2.
  • the piloting pressure is relatively high, thereby such pressure will be able to unlock the hydraulic parking brake 20 connected to the service opening 21.
  • the main piston 5 moves until it opens the passage section whereby the operative flow rate of the fluid will pass and start the descent of the load.
  • the control device 1 creates a control valve that, after the initial opening step, may further continue the opening step rather quickly.
  • the control device 1 is substantially able to perform an actual control on a hydraulic actuator only during the first opening step of the actuator, while, in the time period following this first opening step - i.e., in a time period wherein a strict control is no longer required and the flow rate of the fluid can increase quickly -, the shutter opening can occur quickly thus reducing energy losses.
  • the auxiliary piston 13 may in fact serve as an additional piloting piston which allows to obtain a relatively high piloting ratio greater than 6:1, or greater than 8:1, or greater than 10: 1.
  • the piloting ratio may be in particular the ratio between the area of the section of the piloting piston 13 (or second sealing area, or section defined by second sealing means 14) and the annular area defined by the difference between the passage section controlled by the main piston 5 and the sealing area (or section defined by first sealing means 7). In the specific example shown, the piloting ratio is of about 13:1.
  • the control device 1 may be used in particular for controlling the movement of a load.
  • the piloting ratio is one of the parameters regulating the opening of the control device 1.
  • the piloting pressure required to open the control device 1, and therefore to move a load is a function of the piloting ratio, which will depend on the construction of the control device 1, of a calibration pressure, which will depend on the calibration of the control device 1, and of a pressure induced by the load, which will depend on the specific use.
  • the throttling means 11 (comprising in this case a throttling screw) enables to reduce the instability of the system.
  • the unidirectional means 12 (comprising in this case a check valve), which creates a sort of bypass with respect to the throttling means 11, allows to cancel or, in any case, reduce considerably, the closing (or opening) delay, which would be generated due to the need of emptying (or filling) the volume of the piloting chamber 9.
  • the auxiliary piston 13 substantially creates an additional piloting piston which guarantees a high calibration of the device. It is possible at the same time to open completely very quickly the device itself.
  • the auxiliary piston 13 further allows to obtain a stabilization effect of the device.
  • the forces acting on the main piston 5 are particularly high, as on one side of the main piston 5 the auxiliary piston 13 will be able to act, with a relatively high diameter, and on the other side the actuating means 6 will be able to act, with relatively very rigid elastic means. This will imply that the force of the oleodynamic flow will affect less the opening of the main piston 5.
