Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the radius of turning, by providing a control valve unit to steer rear wheels by a prescribed angle from the neutral position along with front wheels. CONSTITUTION:When a front wheel is steered from the neutral position to a set angle smaller than the maximum steered angle, a controller sends a rear wheel steering signal to a control valve unit 14 to operate a first and a second electromagnetic changeover valves 15, 16 to move the piston rod 26 of a hydraulic cylinder 25 to steer a rear wheel and keep it in a prescribed steered angle. The front wheel is then steered further toward the maximum angle. When the front wheel is steered from an angle to the set angle toward the neutral position, the controller sends a rear wheel steering signal to the control valve unit 14 to operate the changeover valves 15, 16 to return the rear wheel to the neutral position.

The control device (37) also sends a rear wheel steering signal to the control valve (14) when the front wheels are steered from a certain steering angle position toward the neutral position and the steering angle reaches the set steering angle. The first and second electromagnetic switching valves (15) and (16) are operated in the opposite direction to return the first and second electromagnetic switching valves (15X16) to the neutral position shown in FIG. At this time,
Inside the cylinder (29) is the oil passage (9) → the first electromagnetic switching valve (15
) → R port → communicates with the reservoir (3) via the low pressure oil passage (1o), and the lock piece (3o) is connected to the spring (31)
The lock piece (30) protrudes into the cylinder (25) while the oil in the cylinder (29) is returned to the reservoir (3). At this time, since the piston rod (26) is moving in the direction of the arrow (e) as described above, the tip of the lock piece (30) comes into contact with the large diameter portion (26b) of the piston rod (26). Also, at this time, the hydraulic pump (

6) P port → oil passage (7a) → first check valve (17)
→Hydraulic cylinder for rear wheel steering (25) via oil passage (7a)
is sent to room (f). Also, the pressure oil of the hydraulic pump (2b) is transferred from the high pressure oil path (6) to the P port of the first electromagnetic switching valve (15) to the C port to the oil path (23) to the first and second pistons (
19) is sent to the contact part of (20), and the second piston (2

Start moving in the opposite direction of e). At this time, the pressure oil flowing through the oil passage (8) is sent to the chamber (h) (i) of the cylinder (25), and the sliding ring (27) moves to the right, and the sliding ring (28) moves to the left. However, since the large diameter part (26b) of the piston rod '' (26) is still on the left side of the annular protrusion (25c), one sliding ring (28) comes into contact with the annular protrusion (25c). and stop.

However, the other sliding i-ring (27) is attached to the piston rod (
26) and moves to the right together with the piston rod 9 (26), and the annular protrusion, (25

25a) and the annular partition wall (25b), and stops there. On the other hand, piston rondo (
26) returns to the above direction, the lock piece (30) that was sliding against the large diameter part (26b) of the piston rod (26)
) is the piston rod (26) (large diameter part (26b))
When the motor returns to the neutral position as described above, it is further pushed by the spring (31) and protrudes, causing the annular groove (2

In this state, the rear wheels have also returned to the neutral position, and the rear wheels are maintained at the neutral position from then on. Meanwhile, the front wheels are still steered toward the neutral position.

The above action occurs when the front wheels are steered in one direction (either left or right) and the rear wheels are steered in one direction (either left or right), but when the front wheels are steered in the other direction, the control valve (14) (First and second solenoid switching valves (15X16)
) operates in the direction opposite to the arrow (d) from the neutral position in Figure 2, and the piston rod (26) of the rear wheel steering hydraulic cylinder (25) operates from the neutral position in Figure 2 to the right (6th position).
