MOUNTING BLOCK FOR FLUID CONTROL VALVE This invention relates to fluid control apparatus and in particular to mounting blocks suitable for the mounting of fluid control valves.
Arrangements of mounting blocks for fluid control systems are already known, but such systems have suffered from the disadvantage that, while they permit the mounting of a plurality of control valves supplied by common inlet and outlet connections, they have not been readily adaptable to permit the ready connection of inter-related control valves with a minimum of pipework.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a mounting block for an hydraulic valve so constructed that a plurality of the blocks may be secured together to permit the interconnection of related valves of an hydraulic control system with a minimum of pipework.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a mounting block assembly for hydraulic control valves which enables associated valves to be hydraulically interconnected with a minimum of pipework.
In one embodiment of mounting blockaccording to the invention the block has two opposed parallel faces, each face having therein a pair of ports disposed in a predetermined relation to a common reference plane. The ports in the two faces are connected by parallel channels within the block.
Those features of the invention which are believed to be novel are set forth with particularity in the appended claims.
Further features and advantages of mounting blocks in accordance with the invention will become apparent from the following description, taken in conjunction with the drawings of which:
FIG. 1 is a plan view of a unit mounting block;
FIG. 2 is a front elevation of the block of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is an end view of the block of FIGS. 1 and 2;
FIG. 4 is a cross-section taken along the line 4-4 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a cross-section taken along the line 55 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 6 is a cross-section taken along the line 6-6 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 7 is a cross-section taken along the line 7-7 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 8 is an isometric representation of the manner in which two mounting blocks may be fitted together;
FIGS. 9 and 10 are two views in co-ordinate directions of an hydraulic control apparatus using the assembly of two mounting blocks shown in FIG. 8;
FIG. 11 is a pipe diagram showing the control effected by the arrangement of FIG. 9 and 10; and
FIG. 12 is a perspective view of the mounting block of FIGS. 1-3.
The mounting block shown in FIGS. 1-7 is a unit block and may be extended in the direction of its length to form a unitary assembly including a plurality of port arrangements of the kind now to be described. The block shown is of rectangular and specifically crosssquare section, though this is not essential to its function which requires only that it shall have a plurality of planar faces of which two are parallel.
The block 1 shown has in its end face 101 shown in FIG. 3 a pair of ports 2 and 3 which are disposed in a predetermined relation to a reference plane parallel to the length of the block and indicated by chain-line 4. Similar ports are provided in the opposed end 102 of the block and the ports are connected by channels or conduits 2a and 3a contained within the block. Conveniently, though not necessarily, the ports and channels are formed by drilling through the block, though other methods of hole formation may be used to produce the channels when desired. Associated with ports 2, 3 is a plurality of fastening holes. In the embodiment illustrated four screw-threaded holes 5, 6, 7 and 8 are disposed symmetrically with respect to the ports 2, 3. An additional port 9 may be provided extending through the length of the block to accommodate electrical leads for valve control purposes.
In the third face 103 of the block shown in FIG. 1 are provided four ports 10, ll, 12 and 13 which are disposed in a standard J.I.C. array, and are accompanied by appropriately spaced fixing holes 14 and a locating hole 15. The inlet and outlet ports 10 and 11 communicate with the conduits 21 and 3a of ports 2 and 3 via a first pair of internal conduits 10a and 110, respectively, as seen in FIG. 4 and 6, while the controlled ports 12 and 13 communicate via a second pair of conduits 12a and 130, respectively with a further pair of ports 16 and 17 which are provided in a fourth face 104 of the block and are disposed in the same predetermined relation to a plane, represented by chain line 18, which is perpendicular to the reference plane 4, as the relation of ports 2, 3 to the reference plane. Ports l6 and 17 are provided with screw threads for the fastening thereto of external pipes.
Associated with ports 16, 17 is an array of four fixing holes 19, 20, 21 and 22 disposed symmetrically with reference to ports 16, 17 and spaced similarly to holes 5-8 of FIG. 3. As shown in FIG. 7, these fixing holes pass through the thickness of the block. In this manner it is made possible to secure a transfer block to the block shown, so that the inlet and outlet ports of the added block communicate with the controlled ports of the first. Such an arrangement is shown in FIG. 8, where a transfer block 30 is shown with its inlet and outlet ports 31, 32 aligned with the controlled ports 33, 34 of a three-unit block 35. In this manner a fluid circuit may be controlled by the series combination of a valve fitted to block 35 at position A, a valve 39 fitted to transfer block 30 at position B and a further valve at position C. The two blocks will be held together by fixing bolts such as 36, 37 passing through holes in blocks 35 and 30 and engaging in screw-threaded holes in the proximate face of valve 39.
A control system employing a similar assembly is shown in FIGS. 9, 10 and 11. A block 45 carries three control valves 46, 47 and 48 while an intermediate valve position is blanked by a cover plate 49 sealing the ports therein. A transfer block 50 coupled to the ports controlled by valve 47 carries two sequence valves 51 and 52. Pump and tank pipes 53, 54 are connected by way of a relief valve 55 to the ports of block 45 which are controlled by valve 46. A further tank pipe 54a is connected to one of the manifold ports of block 45, of which the other end is closed by a plug 54b. The second manifold port is closed at both ends by plugs 56, 57. The controlled ports of sequence valve 51 are connected by way of pipes 60, 61 to a punch actuating cylinder 62, while the controlled ports of sequence valve 52 are connected by way of pipes 63, 64 to a clamp actuating cylinder 65. The ports on block 45 which are controlled by valve 48 are connected by way of pipes 66, 67 with a cylinder 68 arranged to actuate a transfer mechanism.
The arrangement shown may be varied by disposing a further mounting block in place of either of sequence valves 51, 52, so that further electromagnetically actuated valves may be coupled in sequence with valve 47. It will be understood that valves other than the simple electromagnetically actuated spool valves illustrated may be used in conjunction with a mounting block or an assembly of mounting and transfer blocks according to the invention to construct control systems of considerable complexity, without the necessity than a minimum of pipework.
Most types of control valve are preferably mounted with the spindle axes horizontal, and it will be seen that as assembly of mounting blocks according to the invention permits large numbers of interconnected valves to be mounted in this position without the necessity for using adaptor members of any kind.
