  • valve AVlll In position I, valve AVlll) connects with valve station Sequence of Operations Reset Before the operating cycle is commenced, the system is reset. To do this the diesel engine D1 is started and auxiliary pump P3 fully charges the accumulator AC1 to 1,000 psi. Engine D1 also starts the compressor 81 so that air passes through line 82 to the control panel API. The solenoid start/ stop valve AV16 is then energized, and the manual start/stop valve AV12 is placed in the stop position. The system reset valve AV14 is then depressed, held, and valve AV12 is pulled to the start position to connect air from line 82 to intersection 100. The air branches via line 101 to hydraulic valve PV8, opening this valve and admitting fluid into the pump unit BPl, where it is blocked by check valves 66-69 and flows through line 60 to valve unit M1 at the accumulator pressure 1,000 psi.
  • Air also branches from intersection 100 through line 102 to intersection 103 and through shuttle valves AV17A and B and lines 104 and 105 to ports 7 of directional control valves V2A and V2B, causing these valves to counteract the pressure on ports 6 thereof and to connect ports 2 to ports 4 and ports 3 to ports 5.
  • Air also passes from line 102 via branch lines 107 and 108 through shuttle valves AV13A and AV13B to ports 4 of air valves AV3A and AV3B, setting them in position 1.
  • valve PV8 feeds fluid from auxiliary pump P3 through supply line 60 and through ports 2-4 of valves V2A and V2B to open exhaust valves V5A and VSB and connect the main intensifier rams RA and RB to exhaust.
  • the accumulator AC1 supplies oil to the small return rams QA and QB effecting the return strokes of both intensifier units.
  • tappet valves AV2A and AV2B are depressed, completing the system reset cycle. The system reset valve AV14 is then released.
  • the main pumps P1 and P2 when loaded, deliver fluid thru valve VlA into the main intensifier cylinder 22, starting the forward stroke of power ram RA and displacing oil from the small return rams QA into the accumulator AC1, or, the accumulator is fully charged, displacing fluid through relief valve V6 to tank T1.
  • driving fluid passes through ports 2-5 of valve V2B to valve V4B in loop LB.
  • Valve V4B closes when the pressure on the outlet port, which is connected to intensifier ram RB, reaches 150 psi less than the pressure in line 60, causing the intensifier ram RB to be pressurized to within 150 psi of the moving intensifier ram RA.
  • air passes through check valve AV8B and is admitted via line 95 to port 3 of valve VlB, opening this valve and permitting driving fluid to be admitted to ram RB to commence the start of its forward stroke. Air is also admitted via line 98 to port 4 of holding valve AV4B, moving this valve to its blocking position.
  • valve VlA exhausts via line 94 through valves AV8A and AV7, resetting valve VIA to the closed position. This stops the forward movement of intensifier ram RA. In this condition, ram RB is receiving the full main pump output through valve VlB.
  • Reversal-Ram RA Returns and Pressurizes Ram RB Stops As the pressure exhausts from port 3 of VIA, port 4 of valve AV4A also exhausts, at the same rate and at the same time, resetting valve AV4A and opening port 1 to port 2. This allows air from the tappet valve AVlA to be admitted through valve AV4A to port 5 of relay valve AV3A, shifting this valve to position 2 and connecting port 1 to port 2. The air in line 89 is therefore directed through this valve and through shuttle valve AV 17A to port 7 of the directional control valve V2A via line 104, counteracting the air pressure against port 6 from line 92 and opening ports 2-4 and ports 3-5. This action admits driving fluid to exhaust valve VSA.
  • Cylinder 22 decompresses at a rate set by valve V3A, and on completion of decompression, exhaust valve VSA opens and exhausts ram RA through valve VA. With intensifier ram RA fully opened to exhaust, the charged accumulator AC1 actuates the small return rams QA and ram RA starts its return stroke, first releasing tappet valve AVlA and, on completion of the return stroke, operating tappet valve AV2A.
  • the releasing of tappet valve AVlA exhausts port 5 of relay valve AVSA, and the operating of tappet AV2A admits air to port 4 of AVSA, causing this valve to move to position 1 and block the air flow through line 89.
  • the releasing of tappet valve AVlA also exhausts port 5 of reversing valve AV7 through line 116. However, since this valve is not spring biased, it momentarily remains in the reversed position until actuated again.
  • the intensifier ram RB is still making its forward stroke, displacing fluid from the return rams QB into the accumulator AC1.
  • the intensifier ram RA is pressurized through valve V2A and sits at the start of its forward stroke.
  • the tappet valve AVlB is actuated and air is admitted via line 118, shuttle valve AV6B, and line 120 to port 6 of reversing valve AV7, moving this valve to position 1 and connecting port 1 to port 2. Air is also admitted to port 1 of the blocked valve AV4B.
  • valve AV7 supplies air through line 94 to open valve VIA, and this admits fluid from the main pump supply to cylinder 22, thereby starting ram RA on its forward stroke again.
  • valve AV7 cuts ofi air pressure to lines 95 and 98, and consequently these lines exhaust through valve AV8B and valve AV7.
  • the exhausting of line 95 causes valve VlB to close and cut off the supply of driving fluid to ram RB.
  • ram RB stops.
  • the exhausting of line 98 releases valve AV4B, opening port 1 to port 2 thereof and enabling air in line 118 to actuate relay valve AV3B to position 2, connecting port 1 to port 2.
  • the system thus starts another cycle.
  • the forward stroke takes a longer period of time to complete than the return stroke, in order that the returning ram may be pressurized while awaiting its next forward stroke.
  • the system by pressurizing the returned ram to within 150 psi of the forward moving ram, provides a smooth, relatively pulseless output flow which minimizes the mechanical wear on the valving and extends the service life of the system.
  • Ram RA Adjustment of Ram RA or Ram RB

  • ram RA' may be adjusted forwardly by intermittently moving valve AV10 into position 1 and into position 3 to effect inching movement.
  • Ram RE is similarly adjusted by pushing air valve AV10 to position 2. This connects air to intersections and 131. From intersection 131, air passes through shuttle valve AV6A and holding valve'AV4A to port 5 of relay AV3A, actuating this valve to position 2, and also through line 116 to port 5 of reversing valve AV7, also actuating this valve to position 2. Air is also connected through line 132 and via shuttle valves AVSB and AV13B to port 4 of relay valve AV3B, actuating this valve to position 1.
  • ram RB may be adjusted by intermittently moving valve AV10 into position 2 and into position No. 3 (stop position). Only when this valve is moved to position 1 or 2 are the main pumps loaded. During inch conditions, the tappet valves AV lA-B and AV2A-B are inoperative.
  • an emergency stop can be efiected by depressing valve AVl2 or de-energizing valve AV16. These valves interrupt the air supply and exhaust the system. This action immediately unloads the main pumps and stops any movement of the intersifier rams RA and RB.
