Abstract

Prior art control valves with a single balance valve have the problem that once the first balance valve connected to the rodless cavity fails, the oil of the rodless cavity of the cylinder enters the oil return system, and the piston rod of the cylinder retracts, causing the work bucket of an aerial work platform to tilt, endangering the operator. Disclosed herein is a control valve comprising an oil circuit provided between a first port G (8) and a second port F (9), and an oil circuit provided between a third port H (10) and a fourth port E (11); wherein, a first balance valve connected in series with a switch valve (12) is provided in the oil circuit between the first port G (8) and the second port F (9); wherein a second balance valve is provided on the oil circuit between the third port H (10) and the fourth port E (11); wherein the first balance valve comprises a first one-way functional portion (4) and a first overflow function portion (5), and the second balance valve comprises a second one-way functional portion (6) and a second overflow function portion (7); the control port of the first overflow function portion (5) is in communication with a first oil mouth (17) located at one end of the oil inlet of the second one-way function portion (6) of the second balance valve; and the control port of the second overflow function portion (7) is in communication with a second oil mouth (14) located at one end of the oil inlet of the first one-way function portion (4) of the first balance valve; and a third oil mouth (15) located at one end of the oil inlet of the first overflow function portion (5) of the first balance valve is connected to the second port F (9); and the second oil mouth (14) is connected to the first port G (8), the first oil mouth (17) is connected to the third port H (10); and a fourth oil mouth (16) located at one end of the oil inlet of the second overflow function portion (7) of the second balance valve is connected to the fourth port E (11).

As shown in the hydraulic cylinder and the control valve above-mentioned may be included. The hydraulic cylinder can be a single rod double acting piston type hydraulic cylinder. The second port F 9 may be in communication with the rodless cavity 1 of the hydraulic cylinder, and the fourth port E11 may be in communication with the rod cavity 2 of the hydraulic cylinder. is a schematic diagram of the hydraulic principle when the derricking cylinder when the amplitude varies upward according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. When the amplitude varies upward, as shown in the switch valve 12 can enter a turn-on state, and the pressure oil can flow from the first port G 8 into the control valve, and may flow out of the control valve from the second port F 9 through the switch valve 12 and the first one-way function portion 4. While the pressure oil flowing out from the switch valve 12 can enter the first one-way functional portion 4, part of the pressure oil further may flow from the second oil mouth 14 at one end of the oil inlet of the first one-way functional portion 4 of the first balance valve into the control port of second overflow function portion 7, thereby conducting the second overflow function portion 7. The pressure oil flowing out of the control valve from the second port F9 then flows into the rodless cavity 1 of the hydraulic cylinder, and the oil in the rod cavity 2 of the hydraulic cylinder flows into the control valve through the fourth port E11, and flows out of the control valve from the third port H10 through the second overflow function portion 7, and then enters the oil return system. The piston rod 3 of the hydraulic cylinder may be extended, the lifting arm of the aerial work platform may swing upward. is a schematic view showing the hydraulic principle of the derricking cylinder when the amplitude varies downward according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. When the amplitude varies downward, as shown in the switch valve 12 may enter a turn-on state. The pressure oil can flow into the control valve from the third port H 10, and flow out of the control valve from the fourth port E 11 through the second one-way function portion 6 of the second balance valve. While the pressure oil flowing into the control valve flows into the second one-way functional portion 6, a part of the pressure oil may further flow from the second oil mouth 17 at the end of the oil inlet port of the second one-way functional portion 6 of the second balance valve into the control port of the first overflow function portion 5, thereby turning on the first overflow function portion 5. The pressure oil flowing out of the control valve from the fourth port E 11 then flows into the rod cavity 2 of the hydraulic cylinder, and the oil in the rodless cavity 1 of the hydraulic cylinder flows from the second port F 9 into the control valve, and flows out of the control valve from the first port G 8 through the first overflow function portion 5 and the switch valve 12, and then enters the oil return system. The piston rod 3 of the hydraulic cylinder is retracted, the lifting arm of the aerial work platform varies downward. is a schematic view showing the hydraulic principle of the derricking cylinder when at rest. When the derricking cylinder is at rest, as shown in , no pressure oil flows into the control valve, and the switch valve 12 is cut off. The oil in the rodless cavity 1 of the hydraulic cylinder can be sealed by the control valve. Since the first overflow function portion 5 or the second overflow function portion 7 is turned off without the pressure oil flowing in, the oil in the rodless cavity 1 and the rod cavity 2 of the hydraulic cylinder cannot return through the first balance valve or the second balance valve. The piston rod 3 of the hydraulic cylinder neither protrudes nor retracts, and the lifting arm of the aerial work platform is at rest. is a schematic diagram showing the hydraulic principle when the rodless cavity balance valve of the derricking cylinder fails according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. When the first balance valve of the above-described derricking cylinder fails, as shown in . The oil in the rodless cavity 1 may flow through the first balance valve, but since the switch valve 12 is cut off, the oil flowing through the first balance valve cannot flow out from the first port G 8 through the switch valve 12 or enters the oil return system. The oil in the rodless cavity 1 of the hydraulic cylinder is still sealed by the control valve, and the lifting arm of the aerial work platform does not move downward, causing the work bucket to tilt or causing the whole work platform to tip over, the safety of the aerial work platform is higher.

Wherein the oil supply system and the oil return system can conventionally include a fuel tank, a fuel supply pump, a fuel supply pipeline, a control valve and the return pipeline, etc.. The above system and the derricking cylinder may have the existing connections and working modes. When the above-mentioned derricking cylinder of the application is used for the existing aerial work platform, the oil supply system and the oil return system need not be modified, and only need to be connected with the existing oil supply system and the oil return system to operate normally, The application does not describe the oil supply system and the oil return system of the aerial work platform.

When the hydraulic sensor 18 detects that the pressure on the oil circuit between the switch valve 12 and the first balance valve deviates from the preset range, the electronic control unit can control the alarm device to perform an alarm. The preset range can be determined through experiments, and the alarm operation of the alarm device can display the alarm information on the display or emit an alarm signal such as light or sound, which will not be described here. After the alarm device alarms, the maintenance personnel can know that the first balance valve has failed, and may replace the first balance valve to prevent long-term use causing the switch valve 12 fails, resulting in that the oil in the rodless cavity 1 cannot be sealed when the derricking cylinder is at rest, and when the arm descends, the work bucket may be tilted or the entire aerial work platform may be tipped over to cause a dangerous accident. Therefore, by replacing the failed first balance valve, the control valve can ensure double-insurance on the oil circuit from the rodless cavity 1 oil outflow, further improve the reliability of the control valve and the safety of the aerial work platform.
