Definitions

  • This invention relates to hydraulic jacks and particularly to improvements in the bypass valves employed in some jacks to relieve the shock when the piston reaches the end of its travel and abuts the end of the cylinder.
  • valves described above often relieve or bypass too much fluid too quickly so that the piston travels on by pressure and inertia to the end of its stroke where shock is produced which is damaging to the jack and its supporting structure.
  • FIG. 1 is a view in side elevation of the front portion of a track-type tractor with a bulldozer secured thereto and illustrating a conventional jack for raising and lowering the bulldozer blade with respect to the ground;
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view of the jack shown in FIG. 1 illustrating valves embodying the present invention controlling flow of fluid through the jack piston;
  • FIG. 3 is a fragmentary detail showing a constructional feature of one of the valves shown in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken on the line IV-IV of FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 1 the forward end of a tractor indicated generally at is shown as supporting a bulldozer blade 11 by means of push arms 12 which may be raised and lowered about their pivotal connections 13 with truck frames 14 of the tractor, there being only one push arm and connection shown in FIG. 1.
  • a tilt brace is only partially shown at 15 and a hydraulic jack 16 is provided for raising and lowering the blade.
  • the jack is pivotally supported on a trunnion 17 shown in dotted lines and supported on a bracket 18 which is secured to the radiator guard 19 of the tractor.
  • the jack has the usual piston and extensible rod 20 pivoted to the blade 11 as at 21.
  • the jack is of the double acting type and fluid from a suitable source under pressure, which is not shown, may be introduced to either end of the jack for raising and lowering the blade.
  • a jack of this type When a jack of this type is fully extended or fully retracted under the high pressures required for operating devices of this type, an undesirable shock is often encountered as the piston reach-es the end of the stroke and damage results not only to the jack but to associated parts of the tractor itself. It has been common practice to provide ports extending through the piston from the rod end to the head end of the cylinder and to control flow through these ports with double acting check valves of the kind shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 4.
  • the jack piston is shown at 23 as fitted over a reduced end of the rod 20 and secured thereon as by a nut 24.
  • the piston is generally of solid material With suitable seals such as shown at 25 and 26 and has ports extending therethrough for reception of check valves 27 and 28 which have stems 29 and 30, respectively, guided in sleeves 31 pressed into opposite ends of the port.
  • the sleeves are retained in position by washers 33 and 34 encircling the reduced portion of the shaft 20 and overlying the edges of the sleeves.
  • the sleeves are generally hollow and have cutaway portions, best shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 at 35, communicating with their interiors to permit flow of fluid from one side of the piston to the other.
  • valve stems 29 and 30 engage the end of the cylinder being approached and the valves, having been held closed by the pressure which causes the stroke, are opened to bleed pressure to the opposite sides of the piston.
  • the valves are normally urged to the closed position such as illustrated for the valve 28 and as the end of the stroke is approached, the valves are opened to the position shown in connection with the valve 27 to permit bleeding of pressure from the rod side to the head side and this pressure is exhausted as through a passage 36 and conduit 37 through which it is returned to the sump (not shown).
  • the improvement of the present invention resides in providing one of the valves, this being the valve 27 in FIG. 2, with a stem which is considerably longer in both directions than the stem of the other valve. Consequently as the piston approaches the end of the stroke, this stem is engaged first and the one valve opened first bleeding a small quantity of fluid thus reducing speed prior to opening of the second valve. Consequently the inertial force has been reduced and contact between piston and the end of the cylinder is prevented.
  • the present disclosure shows the piston as having two ports and two valves but obviously any number of valved ports may be employed and any desired number of the valves mayhave longer stems for producing the modulating effect which is produced by opening of one or more valves prior to opening of the others.
  • Nellan 91401 2.
