Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Actuators capable of repeated impacts in which a hydraulically driven follower follows the expansibly driven impact member. Also shown are constant input and output hydraulic flows valved alternately between an impact member returning motion which recompresses the expansible drive, and a following motion causing the follower to follow the suddenly accelerated impact member. The follower is shown to control these flows by means of a slave valve operated by changes of pressure attributable to the position of the parts.
  • a stationary tube between the linear piston and the moving follower sleeve separates the follower drive chamber from the expansible medium in one illustrated embodiment and a follower drive chamber formed along the side of the piston is featured in another illustratron.
  • the present invention relates to impact delivering devices as might be used for rock drilling, pavement breaking, forging, pile driving, impact wrenches, etc., and in particular to such devices as powered by high pressure hydraulic fluid.
  • Actuators capable of delivering repeated impacts to a variable position, whether in straight or rotary motion, are known.
  • Those to which the present invention relates are of the type in which an elastic or expansible drive, e.g. a trapped volume of pre-compressed air or a spring, is exposed to the impact member to drive it.
  • Countervailing hydraulic pressure controlled by the follower is used in the cycle to return the impact member and recompress the expansible drive prior to initiation of the next impact. It is known to return the follower with the impact member and to employ automatic triggering arrangements.
  • One such known arrangement involves venting of the hydraulic return fluid when the impact member reaches the return position' whereby restraint upon the expansible drive is suddenly removed.
  • the invention features use of hydraulic drive for the follower as it follows the impact member, and use of a hydraulic system including a positive displacement constant flow rate source of hydraulic fluid, which alternately is caused to drive the impact member in its return direction and the follower in its following direction.
  • Preferred embodiments of the invention feature: a trigger effective to release the impact member and actuate the separate motion of the follower, preferably the trigger in the form of a hydraulic vent; use of return drive pressure to hold a directional slave valve to vent the follower drive while causing the return of the impact member; and employing the trigger vent-reduced pressure to reverse the valves, to apply pressure to the follower while venting the impact member return system.
  • a trigger effective to release the impact member and actuate the separate motion of the follower, preferably the trigger in the form of a hydraulic vent
  • use of return drive pressure to hold a directional slave valve to vent the follower drive while causing the return of the impact member
  • employing the trigger vent-reduced pressure to reverse the valves, to apply pressure to the follower while venting the impact member return system.
  • Preferred embodiments feature a linear actuator construction of simple design. Other features are mentioned in the Abstract.
  • the present invention can achieve nominally constant flow rates in both inlet and discharge lines at all times. Its sleeve or valving unit, being positively driven in both directions, permits higher frequency operation. It may utilize gas or other energy storage mechanisms at pressures higher than hydraulic fluid pressure, thus allowing a smaller energy storage device or chamber.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross section of the presently preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • FIGS. 2a-d are similar cross-sections at different times in the operating cycle.
  • FIG. 3 is a similar cross-section for the special case of piston overtravel.
  • FIG. 4 is a partial view of an alternate construction of the top of the unit of FIG. 1.
  • the device consists of a housing 11, a piston 10, and a sleeve 12.
  • the piston is generally rod-like and of constant diameter except for an enlargement 10a in the center.
  • a relatively thinwalled tube 13 extends from the housing and its inner surface makes a sliding seal with the upper portion of the piston. Gas is stored in chamber 14 defined by this tube 13, the housing 11, and the top of the piston 10. Gas charging valve is shown at 15, where gas is injected into chamber 14 at intervals to make up for leakage from chamber 14.
  • the movable sleeve 12 slidingly seals on the outer surface of tube 13 and the inner surface of housing 11.
  • the sleeve 12 is flared at 12a at its lower end and shaped to seal against the piston enlargement at 16.
  • the sleeve contains a number of longitudinal internal holes 17, communicating radially through short holes 17a with its outer surface at 18.
  • a number of external short, axially extending slots, 19, are provided in the sleeve in such position as not to communicate with holes 17.
  • the piston 10, piston enlargement 10a, sleeve 12, and tube 13, define an annu lar volume of fluid at 20.
  • the housing 11 includes an upper bore 11a, sized to seal slidingly with the sleeve 12 and a second, next lower bore 11b of enlarged diameter making no seals with any moving parts.
  • the housing has a bore lle of larger dimension than those above, defining a region for free axial movement of the enlargement 10a of the piston, and of the flared end 12a of piston 12, with ample space S for displacementof fluid about the periphery of these members when they move.
  • the lower-most bore 11f of the housing slidingly seals against the piston.
  • the housing contains a lower port, 23, communicat ing with the enlarged lower housing volume 23", a vent, 24, communicating with the volume 22, and an upper port 25, communicating with volume 15'', the volume above the sleeve 12.
  • the volume 14 is filled with gas to the desired pressure. Except for leakage, this operation is not repeated.
  • the unit is combined with an ordinary two-position reversing valve shown schematically at 26. It contains an internal shuttling member or spool 27 that is biased upwardly by springs at 28.
  • the valve is connected to a pump 29 of the positive displacement, constant flow type, through line 30, and to a return reservoir (not shown) through line 31.
  • Opposite ends of the valve spool 27 are pressurized from these two lines through lines 30' and 31'.
  • the valve is connected to the hammer as shown with line 23 to port 23 and volume 23", line 25 to port 25 and volume 25". Vent 24 is connected through line 24' to the reservoir line 31.
  • volume 20 between sleeve and piston, is at low pressure, sealed from 23" at 16 (FIG. 1) and vented through holes 17, 17a, 18, volume 22, port 24 and line 24 to the reservoir. Volume 25 is also vented to the reservoir.
  • the outer diameter of the main body of sleeve 12 is less than the diameter of the seal at 16, hence there is a net downward force acting upon the upper surface of the flare 12a, holding the sleeve to the piston as suggested by arrows at 32.
  • the net effect is a reduction in pressure in volume 23" and an increase in pressure in volume 20 until the net force acting across piston enlargement 10a is no longer sufficient to hold the piston 10 upward against gas pressure in volume 14, albeit sleeve 12 still moves upwardly due to pressure differential across it caused by continued inflow to volume 23".
  • the seal at 16 is thus broken and the pressure differential across enlargement 10a is completely destroyed.
  • the piston is thus triggered” and free to move downward rapidly under the influence of compressed gas in volume 14, here without any displacement of hydraulic fluid from volume 23" because the two ends of the piston are of equal diameter. Once seal 16 is broken, pressures in volumes 23 and 25" tend to equalize across the equal area ends of sleeve 12.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the special case when the bit 50 at the end of the piston has dropped away and the piston overtravels to the position shown, stopped by a mechanical stop (with snubbing action) shown schematically at 40.
  • a mechanical stop with snubbing action
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the special case when the bit 50 at the end of the piston has dropped away and the piston overtravels to the position shown, stopped by a mechanical stop (with snubbing action) shown schematically at 40.
  • a mechanical stop with snubbing action
  • an integral housing casting 11' which forms the bores 11a and 1 lb, etc., has an uppermost bore 11g above and of smaller diameter than bore 11a.
  • a constant diameter portion of piston extends entirely through sleeve 12 into sealing contact with bore 11g throughout the operating range, forming compressed gas chamber 14.
  • the dashed lines of FIG. 4 illustrate an automatic filling arrangement useful when volume 14 is sized to receive hydraulic fluid to provide a hydraulic spring for driving the impact member.
  • the upper dashed line receives fluid from the pump (line 30) through check valve 14.
  • the lower dashed line leads to vented discharge. This vent is positioned just below the piston top edge when the piston is at its normal impact point. This will enable volume 14 to be vented as the piston returns from an abnormally low position (as in FIG. 3), and thereby sets the maximum amount of hydraulic fluid trapped in volume 14, and thus avoids build-up of excess pressure in volume 14 during operation.
  • the construction shown in FIG. 4, in which volume 14 is formed by the housing can be made very ruggedly and is suitable for the pressures associated with use of hydraulic fluid as the spring for driving the impact member.
  • a radially floating separately formed stationary tube 13 could be employed; instead of compressed gas other compressible material or mechanism could act upon the piston or hydraulic fluid as just mentioned; the ends of the piston could be of different area with provision for flow of displaced fluids; the entire reciprocating structure could be of rotary rather than linear arrangement; all fluid can be made to exit chamber 23 through hole 17 and port 24, etc.
