Definitions

  • This invention relates to a hydraulic control device and more particularly to a device for venting the hydraulic circuit during each cycle of operation and for conditioning the hydraulic circuit to interrupt operation of a hydraulic motor.
  • This invention can be employed to control the flow of actuating pressure fluid to hydraulic motors, particularly linear actuators, in order to interrupt operation of the motor at a desired time, thus positioning an element, whether it be alinkage mechanism, a turntable, or a boom, which is actuated by the motor, at any particular location.
  • Controls of this general type are the subject of Patent No. 3,122,247 and US. application Nos. 208,303 and 286,320, now respectively Patents Nos. 3,211,310 and 3,155,252, all of which are assigned to the assignee of the present invention.
  • This invention provides a hydraulic circuit which includes a cyclically operable valve which is effective, during each cycle of operation of the position ing mechanism, to vent the hydraulic circuit to the atmosphere and thereby maintain the hydraulic circuit free of entrapped air.
  • this invention employs the working pressure fluid to achieve the same result thus giving rise to a simpler and more trouble-free system.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a hydraulically actuate-d positioning mechanism wherein the hydraulic circuit is cyclically vented to the atmosphere.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a shiftablehydraulic motor valve to vent a portion of the working fluid to a zone of reduced pressure in order to purge and thus maintain the working fluid free of entrapped air.
  • Another object of this invention is to employ the pressure fluid of the main hydraulic circuit to operate a control device which arrests movement of a positioning mechanism at a desired point.
  • FIG. 1 shows a wheeled vehicle having a bucket positioning mechanism incorporating the control device of this invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a diagrammatic of the hydraulic circuit showing the hydraulic valves in section.
  • a loading apparatus generally indicated by the numeral includes a bucket 12 pivotally connected at 14 to a pair of arms 16.
  • the arms 16 are pivotally connected at 18 to the frame of the loading apparatus with pivotal movement of the arms 16 about the pivot connection 18 being effected by a hydraulic motor 20, preferably a jack.
  • the bucket 12 is interconnected to a tilt motor 22 by a linkage system 24 which 3,289,546 Patented Dec. 6, 1966 operates to hold or retain the bucket 12 in a fixed position relative to the horizontal as it is raised. Retraction of the motor 22 causes the linkage mechanism 24 to eflect pivotal movement of the bucket 12 about the pivot 14 thus dumping the contents from the bucket.
  • the hydraulic circuit for operating the hydraulic motors 20 and 22 includes a lift hick-out mechanism 26 operating to interrupt flow of hydraulic fluid to the motor 20 when the arms 16 have been raised to a predetermined position and a cam kick-out mechanism 28 operating to control the action of ⁇ motor 22 in order to cite-ct tilting of the bucket 12 about the pivot connection 14 when the arms 16 are in their raised position.
  • the portion of the hydraulic circuit for actuating the motor 20 comprises a reservoir 30 which contains hydraulic fluid that is distributed to the circuit by a pump 32 having the discharge port thereof connected to the inlet port of a control valve 34 by a conduit 36.
  • a conventional relief valve 38 located in a branch conduit 40, maintains the pump discharge pressure at a predetermined value by operating to return a portion of the pressure fluid to the reservoir through the conduit 40 and a conduit 42 open to the reservoir 30.
  • Pressure fluid from the conduit 36 is discharged to communicating passageways 44 and 46 formed in the body of the control valve 34.
  • a check valve 48 operates in response to the value of pressure in the passageway 46 to establish communication between the passageway 46 and another passageway 50 which communicates pressure fluid to a bore 54 containing a reciprocable control spool 52.
  • the bore 54 is formed with a plurality of longitudinally spaced annular recesses 56a, 56b, 56c, 56d, which in conjunction with the lands of the spool control the flow of pressure fluid through the valve 34.
  • the passageway 44 distributes pressure fluid to a generally U-shaped cavity 58 and a port 60 to which is connected the conduit 42 to thereby return the pressure fluid to the reservoir 30.
  • a conventional spring centering mechanism 62 is provided for restraining or biasing the spool 52 in a neutral position, which is the position illustrated in the drawing. While in the neutral position, it will be noted that the passageway 44 is in communication with the cavity 58 so that fluid discharged by the pump 32 is immediately returned to reservoir 30 by the conduit 42.
  • the spool 54 is adapted to assume various adjusted positions indicated by the letters R, N, L, and F being respectively, the raise position wherein pressure fluid is communicated to the motor 20 efiecting extension thereof, a neutral position wherein fluid is returned directly to the reservoir 30, the lower position wherein fluid is communicated to the motor 20 in order to effect retraction thereof, and a float position wherein fluid is communicated to the rod end and head end of the fluid motor 20 permitting the bucket to be lowered by gravity and to be able to freely follow the terrain over which it is being moved.
  • the annular recesses 56a and 56d have extending therebetween an internal passageway 64 defining a fluid flow path for returning fluid exhausted from the head end of the hydraulic motor 20 to the recess 56d, through the cavity 58 and to the reservoir 30 by the conduit 42.
  • the recess 56b communicates pressure fluid from the passageway 50 to the head end of the motor 20 by a port 66 and a conduit 68 whereas pressure fluid communicated to the recess 56c by the passageway 50 is communicated, by a port 79 and a conduit 72, to the rod end of the motor 20.
  • the operator positions the spool 52 adjacent the position indicated by the letter R, blocking communication between the passageway 44 and the U- shaped cavity 58 and establishing communication between the passageway 50 and the discharge port 66.
  • the pressure fluid from the pump increases the pressure in the passageway 46 to a sufficient value to cause opening of the check valve 48 and allowing the pressure fluid to flow through the passageway 50 into the annular recess 56b and through the discharge port 66 and the conduit 68 to the head end of the hydraulic motor 20 thus causing extension thereof.
  • Retrac tion of the hydraulic motor 20 is accomplished by moving the spool 52 in the position indicated by the letter L establishing communication between the passageway 50 and the conduit 70 and between the conduit 68 and the passageway 64.
  • the lift kick-out mechanism 26 includes a valve operating in response to the pivotal movement of the arm 16 for communicating pressure fluid derived from the control valve 34 to a slave valve S being effective to release a detent mechanism D thereby conditioning the control valve 34 to interrupt the flow of pressure fluid to the motor 20 and thus halt pivotal movement of the arms 16.
  • the hydraulic system illustrated in FIG. 2 is arranged to employ the high pressure fluid for releasing the detent mechanism D and means are incorporated in the slave valve S for venting the hydraulic circuit in order to purge air which may be entrained in the hydraulic system.
  • the spool 52 has an extension 74 pivotally connected to an actuating lever 76 mounted for rotation with a shaft 78 which is rotatably mounted in a bracket 80 secured to the frame of the machine. Shifting of the spool to any of the indicated positions is accomplished when the operator rotates the shaft 78 in turn rotating the lever 76 thus effecting reciprocation of the spool 52.
  • the detent mechanism D comprises another lever 82 pivotally connected to the frame of the machine at 84 and formed with a laterally projecting support arm 86 on the end of which is rotatably mounted a roller 88.
  • the lever 82 is urged in a clockwise direction by a spring 90 having one end attached to the lower end of the lever 82 and the remaining end attached to a small bracket 92 secured to the body of the valve S.
  • the lower end of the actuating lever 76 is formed with cam surfaces 94, 96, and 98 against which the roller 74 is held in engagement by the spring 90. These cam surfaces are effective in conjunction with the force of the spring 90 to retain the lever 76 and the spool 52 in a desired adjusted position.
  • One of the principal features of this invention pertains to the slave valve S which is constructed and arranged in accordance with the operation of the detent mechanism D to vent the hydraulic circuit when the arms 16 have been raised to their predetermined position.
  • Another important feature of this invention pertains to a high pressure kick-out mechanism operating to communicate pressure fluid discharged through the conduit 68 to the slave valve S in order to rotate the lever 82 of the detent mechanism in a counterclockwise direction thereby returning the spool 52 to its neutral position interrupting prises a base plate 100 rigidly mounted on the arms 16 by plurality of bolts 102.
  • A- bracket 104, secured to the plate 100 has a cam 106 secured thereon in any suitable maner and preferably as shown by means of a bolt 108.

  • the control valve 34 is adjusted to discharge pressure fluid from the pump 32 to the conduit 68 in order to pressurize the head end of the motor 20, the cam 106 engages the roller 116 moving the spool 112 to the right (as viewed in FIG. 2) thereby establishing communication between the conduit 120 and 122 thus communicating presure fluid to the slave valve S.
  • the slave valve S is hydraulically arranged with the valve 110 and mechanically arranged with the detent mechanism D to vent the fluid in the conduit 122 and to permit the spring centering mechanism 62 to return the spool 52 to its neutral position when the arms 16 have reached a predetermined raised position.
  • the valve S comprises a tubular body 124 having a spool 126 reciprocably mounted therein.
  • the spool has a reduced diameter portion 128 extending between inner and outer lands 130 and 132 respectively.
