Description

(54) PNEUMATIC CYLINDER ASSEMBLIES (71) I, HENRY WALTER WEYMAN of Waterworks Road, Barbourne, Worcester. A British Subject, do hereby declare the invention, for which I pray that a patent may be granted to me, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling the rate of flow of fluid in a high pressure hydraulic fluid circuit and is especially concerned with controlling the ram speed of a piston in a pneumatic piston and cylinder assembly incorporating hydraulic damping.
When it is necessary to control the rate of flow of fluid in a hydraulic circuit the fluid is normally caused to pass through an orifice whose size may be varied to regulate the flow rate. A common example is in the use of hydraulic damping to control ram speed, that is the speed of movement of the piston, of a pneumatic cylinder; this arrangement is necessary because air, being compressible, does not allow control by flow restriction to be applied directly to the pneumatic cylinder. An example of such use is described and illustrated in British patent specification No. 1.320,335. In such applications the operation of the pneumatic cylinder drives the hydraulic cylinder, displacing oil from one side of the hydraulic piston to the other side via an interconnecting circuit.If a metering orifice is located in the circuit to restrict the oil flow, the thrust of the piston in a pneumatic piston and cylinder assembly causes a build up of hydraulic pressure and the resulting rate of flow is dependent upon the size of the orifice and the pressure drop across it. If the orifice size is variable, for example by employing a needle valve, the rate of flow and therefore the ram speed of the pneumatic cylinder may be controlled as required; for example to control the feed rate of a cutting tool.
Since reduction in size normally permits wider use of equipment, the natural development in hydraulic systems is towards a reduction in the size of components. The consequent reduction in the surface areas of the pistons employed in the piston and cylinder assemblies automatically leads to the use of higher hydraulic pressures to operate the required forces, and pressures of the order of 100 kg/sq cm are not uncommon. In order to achieve low flow rates in the hydraulic circuit, and therefore low ram speeds of the pneumatic piston, at these hydraulic pressures, the dimensions of the metering orifice must be reduced to the same order as the size of particles normally present in commercially available fine grades of hydraulic fluids.Under these conditions the particles, which may have a diameter of less than 5 microns, collect at the orifice causing silting and resulting in intermitent and erratic flow rate. Thus the ram speed of the pneumatic cylinder may be caused to slow down progressively along its stroke and there could even be a total loss of pneumatic piston movement. Furthermore with the high pressure applied at the control orifice, control is extremely sensitive and small adjustments of orifice size result in large changes in flow rate.
I have now found that this problem may be ameliorated by placing a pressure reducing valve, i.e. a low pressure governer, into the hydraulic circuit upstream of the flow control orifice to drop the pressure to a controlled low pressure, typically about 7 kg/sq cm. When low pressures of this order are applied to the flow control orifice, the low flow rates required to produce low ram speeds are obtained at orifice openings wide enough to avoid the danger of silting and the control responses also less sensitive to adjustments of orifice size. Thus the incorporation of a low pressure governer enables low flow rates to be selected, maintained consistently and fine adjustments to flow rates made without the need for minute adjustments of orifice settings.It is highly desirable that the low pressure governer be of a design sucb that the controlled pressure is substantially independant of changes in applied pressure and demanded flow rates.
Furthermore, since this governer must also pass the oil through a fine restriction in order to reduce the pressure, it should also automatically clear itself of any silting.
In a pneumatic piston and cylinder assembly incorporating hydraulic damping, the hydraulic piston has a piston rod on one side and not on the other and therefore a hydraulic fluid reservoir must be available to accept the difference in volume on the retraction stroke and to return it on the extension stroke. In order that the hydraulic fluid from the reservoir may be returned to the cylinder, the reservoir must be pressurised, for example by a piston with spring loading or by the application of external pressure such as a compressed air supply.
Since this reservoir pressure is present as a back pressure on the downstream side of the control orifice, it can be used to significantly reduce the pressure drop across the control orifice thus assisting in maintaining low and consistent flow rates within the hydraulic circuit.
From one aspect, therefore, the present invention provides a method for controlling the rate of flow of hydraulic fluid in a high pressure hydraulic fluid circuit in which hydraulic fluid under high pressure is caused to pass through a variable flow control orifice to a hydraulic fluid reservoir contained in the circuit, wherein the hydraulic fluid under pressure is first caused to pass through a low pressure governer whereby the pressure drop across the said flow control orifice is reduced enabling more accurate control of the rate of flow of fluid through said orifice.
From another aspect the invention provides a pneumatic piston and cylinder assembly including means for controlling the ram speed of the piston wherein said means comprises a hydraulic piston and cylinder assembly the hydraulic piston being driven by the operation of the pneumatic piston causing hydraulic fluid to be displaced from one side of the said hydraulic piston to the other side thereof via an interconnecting hydraulic circuit, said hydraulic circuit including flow controlling means for controlling the rate of flow of hydraulic fluid therein whereby the ram speed of the pneumatic piston is controlled, said fluid controlling means including in said hydraulic circuit a variable flow control orifice and a low pressure governer located upstream of said orifice, said hydraulic circuit further including a hydraulic fluid reservoir located downstream of said variable flow orifice, which reservoir is maintained under constant pressure.
The low pressure governer may comprise a chamber having an inlet and outlet for the hydraulic fluid and including a movable wall connected to means for controlling the flow of fluid into the said chamber in response to a movement of said wall resulting from an increase in hydraulic pressure on the outlet side of said chamber.
The above mentioned chamber may be formed from a cylinder incorporating a piston and associated piston rod movable therein, said piston and piston rod having coaxial passageways extending therethrough, the free end of the piston rod forming one valve seat in a valve means having two cooperating valve seats for controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid into said cylinder said free end being urged away from the co-operating valve seat by resilient means acting against said piston.
An apparatus employing one embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawing which is a diagrammatic cross-sectional view through a portion of the pneumatic cylinder assembly and hydraulic flow control valve assembly according to the present invention.
A pneumatic cylinder 1 has a piston 2 which slides within cylinder 1 and is sealed by means of seal 3. The piston 2 is carried on a piston rod 4 which is free to slide within the end piece of the assembly (not shown). One end of the assembly is sealed by a closure block 8.
A hydraulic damping cylinder assembly is provided within cylinder 1, the cylinder 30 being formed within the pneumatic piston rod 4. A piston 5 is carried by the hydraulic piston rod 6 and slides within the cylinder 30 and is sealed against the cylinder 30 by means not shown.
Piston 2 is sealed against rod 6 by means of the sealing ring 7.
The right hand end of the cylinder assembly 1 is closed by closure means 8 in which one end of the piston rod 6 is secured.
A hydraulic fluid bore 16 runs the length of the piston rod 6 from an inlet 33 on the right hand side of piston 5 to a chamber 32 in the closure block 8.
A passageway 17 connects chamber 32 with a pressure governer generally indicated at 18, via inlet 19.
A hydraulic bore passes the length of rod 6 from an outlet 34 positioned at the front of the piston rod and to the left of piston 5 the other end communicating with an annular passageway 10, contained in closure block 8, which is interconnected via passageway 11 with the outlet side of a flow control valve 12.
The flow control valve 12 comprises a conical valve seat 13 with which co-operates a needle valve 14 adjustable by means of the knurled knob 15.
Pressure governer 18 comprises a cylindrical chamber 35 which carries a hollow piston 22 having an end face 27 and which is sealed against the cylinder 35 by sealing ring 23. The associated piston rod 36 is freely movable within the annular ring 24 against which it is sealed by a rubber ring (not shown). The piston 22 and piston rod 36 contain an axial hollow space 37 running the full length thereof, the right hand end of the passageway 37 communicating with the space 28 between the end face 27 of the piston 22 and the end wall of the cylinder 35. Outlet 20 communicates with space 28 and, via the passage 21, with the inlet side of the flow control valve 12. The opposite end of the axial passageway 37 communicates with inlet 19 via the annular space 38. A rubber seal 26 is fixed to the end wall of the cylinder 35 opposite the free end of the piston rod 36.A coil spring 25 is positioned between the annular ring 24 carrying the piston rod 36 and piston 22 to normally maintain a gap 39 between the free end of the piston rod 36 and the seal 26.
In operation air is forced into the space 31 in cylinder 1 by means not shown and causes piston 2 and associated piston rod 4 to move to the left. Hydraulic fluid on the right hand of piston 5! is then forced into unit 33 and through passageway 16 in piston rod 6 into the space 32 and then via passageway 17 and inlet 19 into the pressure governer 18. The hydraulic fluid flows through passageway 37 in piston rod 36 and piston 32 into space 28 and out of pressure governer via outlet 20 and via passage 21 into the inlet side of the flow control valve 12.
Because its end area is very small, the force applied to the free end of piston rod 36 by the high pressure at inlet 19 is small.
Consequently, the pressure increasing in the space 28 builds up the force on face 27 of piston 22, until it overcomes the opposing force of the spring 25, thereby forcing the piston 22 and piston rod 36 to the left until the free end of piston rod 36 contacts the seal 26 and halts the flow of hydraulic fluid. The controlled pressure in the space 28 and at the outlet 20 of the pressure governer is therefore determined by the force of coil spring 25. In practice, the piston 22 and associated rod 36 will normally take up a position within cylinder 35 which will vary according to any changes in pressure on either the input or output sides of the governer 18 to give a stable output pressure.In this condition, the bulk of the hydraulic pressure available in the hydraulic circuit is dropped across the narrow space between the free end of piston rod 36 and the seal 26, leaving only the low controlled output pressure (typically 7 kg/sq cm) to be dropped across the flow control valve 12. Should silting occur at the narrow space at the free end of piston rod 36, the pressure in the outlet space 28 must fall, causing the spring 25 to move the piston 22 and piston rod 36 to the right, increasing the gap at the free end of piston rod 36 and automatically clearing the silting.
In this apparatus the hydraulic fluid reservoir is formed by the chamber in the cylinder 30 on the left hand side of piston 5 and is pressurised by means of a spring loaded piston located at the end of the said chamber as described in patent No. 1 320 335.

The piston 22 and piston rod 36 contain an axial hollow space 37 running the full length thereof, the right hand end of the passageway 37 communicating with the space 28 between the end face 27 of the piston 22 and the end wall of the cylinder 35. Outlet 20 communicates with space 28 and, via the passage 21, with the inlet side of the flow control valve 12. The opposite end of the axial passageway 37 communicates with inlet 19 via the annular space 38. A rubber seal 26 is fixed to the end wall of the cylinder 35 opposite the free end of the piston rod 36. A coil spring 25 is positioned between the annular ring 24 carrying the piston rod 36 and piston 22 to normally maintain a gap 39 between the free end of the piston rod 36 and the seal 26. In operation air is forced into the space 31 in cylinder 1 by means not shown and causes piston 2 and associated piston rod 4 to move to the left. Hydraulic fluid on the right hand of piston 5! is then forced into unit 33 and through passageway 16 in piston rod 6 into the space 32 and then via passageway 17 and inlet 19 into the pressure governer 18. The hydraulic fluid flows through passageway 37 in piston rod 36 and piston 32 into space 28 and out of pressure governer via outlet 20 and via passage 21 into the inlet side of the flow control valve 12. Because its end area is very small, the force applied to the free end of piston rod 36 by the high pressure at inlet 19 is small. Consequently, the pressure increasing in the space 28 builds up the force on face 27 of piston 22, until it overcomes the opposing force of the spring 25, thereby forcing the piston 22 and piston rod 36 to the left until the free end of piston rod 36 contacts the seal 26 and halts the flow of hydraulic fluid. The controlled pressure in the space 28 and at the outlet 20 of the pressure governer is therefore determined by the force of coil spring 25. In practice, the piston 22 and associated rod 36 will normally take up a position within cylinder 35 which will vary according to any changes in pressure on either the input or output sides of the governer 18 to give a stable output pressure.In this condition, the bulk of the hydraulic pressure available in the hydraulic circuit is dropped across the narrow space between the free end of piston rod 36 and the seal 26, leaving only the low controlled output pressure (typically 7 kg/sq cm) to be dropped across the flow control valve 12. Should silting occur at the narrow space at the free end of piston rod 36, the pressure in the outlet space 28 must fall, causing the spring 25 to move the piston 22 and piston rod 36 to the right, increasing the gap at the free end of piston rod 36 and automatically clearing the silting. In this apparatus the hydraulic fluid reservoir is formed by the chamber in the cylinder 30 on the left hand side of piston 5 and is pressurised by means of a spring loaded piston located at the end of the said chamber as described in patent No. 1 320 335.
