Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally as indicated to a multiple spool valve assembly for controlling the operation of a corresponding number of fluid motors.
  • valve housings for correspondingly different fluid circuits.
  • the so-called parallel circuit any one or more or all valve spools of the assembly may be operated at will to control the respective fluid motors
  • the so-called series-parallel circuit only one valve spool at a time may be operated to control its respective fluid motor
  • FIG. 1 is a cross-section View of a multiple spool valve assembly according to the present invention, such section having been taken substantially along the line 11, FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation view as viewed from the right-hand side of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a cross-section view taken substantially along the line 3-3, FIG. 2, showing the coring arrangement for the housing to provide for series-parallel operation;
  • FIG. 4 is a cross-section view corresponding to FIG. 3, except illustrating modification of the housing to provide for parallel operation;
  • FIG. 5 is a crosssection View also corresponding to FIG. 3 showing yet another modification of the housing to provide for parallel operation of two spools and seriesparallel operation of the third spool with respect to the first two spools;
  • FIG. 6 is a fragmentary cross-section view illustrating a reconversion plug arrangement whereby to enable reconversion of the FIG. 4 arrangement to that of FIG. 5, or of the FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 arrangements to the seriesparallel operation of FIG. 3.
  • the multiple spool valve assembly 1 is herein shown by way of example as comprising three four-way open center valve spools 2a, 2b, 2c reciprocable in parallel bores 3a, 3b, 3c in the unitary housing 4 for controlling a corresponding number of double acting fluid motors 5a, 5b, 50.
  • the three spool bores 3a, 3b, 3c are each intersected axially therealong starting at the middle thereof by a central wishbone bypass passage 6 which communicates the inlet port 7 with the tank port 8 when all three spools 2a, 2b, 2c are in neutral position as shown in FIG.
  • the housing 4 is provided with yet another bore 12 which is parallel to the spool bores and which intersects the inlet port 7 for mounting of a relief valve'assembly 14 therein.
  • the relief valve assembly 14 is of the pilot operated type in which, when the pressure in the inlet port 7 and in the chamber 15 behind the main relief valve member 16 exceeds the force exerted by the spring 17 against the pilot valve member 18 causes the latter to be forced away from its seat to bleed the fluid from the chamber 15 into the left tank passage 11 faster than fluid can be replenished through the main valve orifice 19, whereupon the pressure in the inlet port 7 acting on the area of the main valve member 16 forces it away from its seat against spring 20, whereby excess pressure in the inlet port 7 is released through the seat member 21 into the right tank passage 11.
  • valve spools 2a, 2b, 2c are shown as being of identical form, namely, four-way open center type for causing the pistons in the respective fluid motors 5a, 5b, 50 to be operated in one direction or the other in response to shifting of the respective spools 2a, 2b, 2c in one direction or the other from the neutral positions shown in FIG. 1.
  • each spool 2a, 2b, 20 has alternate lands and grooves, and is held in the neutral position of FIG. 1 by the spring centering mechanism 23 associated with one end thereof.
  • FIG. '1 To the extent that the coring of the housing 4 is illustrated in FIG. '1, it is exactly the same in all of the modifications shown, the sole differences being in the plane 33 on which the FIGS. 3, 4, and 5 are based, and these differences are in drilled passages for conversion of the FIG. 3 housing to that of FIG. 4 or FIG. 5, as desired.
  • the passages 6e, 92, 10a and 11e are lateral extensions of the respective wishbone portions of bypass 6 upstream of the respective spool bores 3a, 3b, 3c, of the respective pressure feed passages 9a, 9b, 9c, of the respective motor passages 10a, 10b, 10c, and of the tank passages 11.
  • FIG. 3 embodiment of the housing 4 as originally cored and finished, provides for series-parallel operation, that is, only one valve spool 2a, 2b, or 2c may be operated at a time since the bypass 6 from which it receives fluid under pressure must be open upstream thereof.
  • the third spool 20 when shifted from neutral position to one of its operating positions closes the aforesaid bypass 6 and in order for pressure to build up in the bypass 6 and associated extension 6e which communicates with the upstream portions of bypass 6, spools 2a, and 2b must remain in neutral position.
  • the first spool 2a must at that time be in neutral position so that fluid under pressure may build up in the inlet port 7 and in the associated portion 6e of the bypass 6 which is immediately upstream of the second spoo'l 2b.
  • the left pressure feed passage 9a, 9b, or 96 is placed in communication with the left motor passage 10a, 10b, or 100, whereupon fluid under pressure flows from the inlet port 7 through the associated left check valve member 27a, 27b, or 27c to move the piston in the associated fluid mot-or a, 5b, or 5c in one direction.
  • the right motor passage a, 10b, or 10c is communicated with the right tank passage 11 for flow of displaced fluid through tank port 8 to a suitable tank or reservoir.
  • the right pressure feed port passage 9a, 9b, or 90 is in fluid communication with the associated right motor passage 10a, 1%, or 100 whereby fluid flows from the inlet port 7 and bypass passage 6 and extension 6e through the associated check valve member 27a, 27b, or 270 to cause the piston in the associated motor 5a, 5b, or 5c to be moved in the opposite direction with fluid displaced from the motor flowing to the tank port 8 via the left motor passage 10a, 10b, or 100 which is now in fluid communication with the left tank passage 11.
  • the check valves 27a, 27b, 27c herein serve as load checks to prevent load dropping, or back flow of fluid in case the fluid pressure in the inlet port 7 is less than in the associated pressure feed and motor passages 9a, 9b, 9c and 10a, 10b, 10c.
  • FIG. 4 it is to be noted that the coring of the housing 4 is exactly the same as in FIGS. 1 and 3, and the only thing that has to be done to provide for a full parallel circuit wherein the spools 2a,
  • 2b, 2c may be operated independently or simultaneously any two or three at a time.
  • a hole 30 which extends between the pairs of bypass passage extensions 6e and bores 31a, 31b, 310 from the check valve bores 25a, 25b, 25c intersecting hole 30.
  • a sleeve member 32b, 32c Inserted in each bore 31b and 310 is a sleeve member 32b, 32c which constitutes a seat for the associated check valve member 27b, 27c and which isolates the associated bypass passage extension 6e from both the bore 30 and the adjacent pressure feed passage 9e.
  • the extensions 6e for spool 2a, and the bore 30 (via bores 31a and sleeve members 32b and 320) become an inlet passage for feeding fluid under pressure from the inlet port 7 to the pressure feed passage extensions 9e for operation of the respective spools 2a, 2b, 2c, either independently, or simultaneously with one or two of the others.
  • the bore 30 is closed as by threaded plug 33.
  • the bypass 6 when it is operated, the bypass 6 through it is closed and pressure builds up in one or the other of the bypass passage extensions 6e to supply fluid under pressure to one or the other of the pressure feed passages 9a (via 9e and check valve member 27a therein) to cause actuation of the fluid motor 5a in one direction or the other.
  • pressure through openings 31a, also builds up in the bore 39, but if neither the second nor third spools 2b, 2c are operated, the check valve members 27b, 270 are not open.
  • the three spools 2a, 2b, 2c can be operated one at a time, any two at a time, or all three at a time, by the simple expedient of merely providing the drilled hole 30 and the cross bores 31a, 31b, 31c of which the second and third ones viz, 31b and 31c have tubular inserts 32b and 32c therein.
  • the first and second spools 2a and 2b are in parallel arrangement by providing the bore 30 which extends between the bypass extensions 6e of the first and second spools 2a and 2b and again drilling through as at 31a, 31b, and providing the tubular inserts 32b which may be identical in structure and function to those described in relation to FIG. 4.
  • the check valve bores 250 for the third spool 2c are left exactly as they were in FIG. 3.
  • first and second spools 2a and 2b may be operated independently or simultaneously, but since the third spool receives fluid under pressure only from the bypass 6 and bypass extensions 6e, it can be operated only when the first and second spools 2a and 2b are in neutral position with the common bypass 6 open so that fluid under pressure Will build up in the inlet port 7 and in the bypass passage 6 up to the third spool 20 for flow through the selected check valve member 27c.
  • the FIG. 4 parallel circuit can be reconverted or changed to the FIG. 5 circuit'simply by providing plugs 40 in place of the sleeves 32a to seal off the bypass passage extensions 62 with the bore 30, and to provide seats for check valve members 270 between the bypass passage extensions 6e and the respective pressure feed extensions 9e, said plugs 40 having openings 41 for flow of fluid from 6e to 9e. Going a step further, the FIG. 5 arrangement then can be reconverted back to FIG. 3 by providing plugs 40 in association with the bores 31b and with enlarged bores 31a. Of course, the FIG. 4 arrangement similarly may be reconverted to the FIG. 3 arrangement by using the plugs 40 in place of sleeves 32b and 32c and in enlarged bores 31a. Furthermore, by
  • selective use of the plugs 40 and sleeves 32 the FIG. 4 arrangement can be such that the first and third spools 2a and 2c may be operated in parallel one or both at a time, but with the second spool 2b operative only when the first spool is in neutral position. Numerous other arrangements can obviously be provided.
  • the present invention requires the making of only one basic housing casting 4 which has the same coring regardless of the ultimate circuit arrangement, whether series-parallel, parallel, or a combination of them.
  • castings 4 can be made for stock or inventory, and finished to the extent shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, whereupon assembly may be readily completed for FIG. 3 series-parallel operation, or quickly and easily converted for parallel and other operation simply by drilling or boring holes and 31a, 31b and/or 310 and installing the tubular inserts 32b and/or 32c.
  • the provision of plugs 40, or in fact, plugs in the drilled hole 30, the housing 4 may be reconverted.
  • all three spools 2a, 2b, 2c are of the four-way open center type, it is to be understood that one, two, or three three-way spools may be substituted for operating a corresponding number of single acting fluid motors with one of the motor ports plugged or left undrilled.
  • one or more of the spools may be of the four-way float type which has in addition to the two operating positions provided in the four-way spools here shown, another operating position, a so-called float position in which the motor ports are placed in fluid communication with one another and with a tank port (usually with restricted communication to build up some pressure but at the same time to preclude cavitation of the motor, as when the piston therein floats or moves toward its rod end.)
  • the hole 30 may be provided in housing 4 as cast and left open at its lower end if finished as in FIG. 3. However, if the housing 4 is finished as in FIGS. 4 or 5, the lower end of cored hole 30 need only be counterbored and tapped for the plug 33, and the openings 31a, and 31b and/or 31c provided for sleeves 32b and/or 320.

  • valve spools in said first two spool bores may be operated either selectively or simultaneously as aforesaid, but a valve spool in said another spool bore may be operated only when the first two spool bores are inoperative.
