Definitions
- the present invention pertains to a load lifting system and, in particular, to a system including a hydraulic cylinder, a check valve mounted to said hydraulic cylinder and being responsive to a vent valve for preventing a load carried by said cylinder from moving should a leak occur in a hydraulic line to the cylinder.
- Hydraulic systems such as are found in excavators and the like, employ a hydraulic cylinder to raise and lower relatively heavy loads and at times to support such loads in an elevated position.
- a hydraulic cylinder When the cylinder is required to support the load in such an elevated position, it is normally desirable to isolate a relatively high load generated pressure in the load supporting end of the cylinder from the remainderof the system. This is to prevent the downward drifting of the load due to leakage past a valve spool of a conventional control valve normally used in such systems.
- the load pressure is also normally isolated to prevent the movement of the load in the event of a hydraulic line failure. This isolation can be accomplished by positioning a load check valve in the hydraulic line leading from the control valve to the hydraulic cylinder.
- Such a load check valve permits the free flow of fluid to the cylinder, but normally prevents the escape of fluid from the cylinder.
- the load check valve can be of the type which is vented behind the check valve spool, such that the check valve closes when the hydraulic line from the venting line is blocked. When the venting line is open, hydraulic fluid can flow from the cylinder through the check valve to the control valve.
- the load check valve can be mounted directly to the hydraulic cylinder elminating the need for a conduit to connect the cylinder to the check valve and thus eliminating the possibility of a break therein.
- the present invention is directed to overcoming one or more of the problems as set forth above.
- the improvement comprises means for selectively actuating said vent valve means subject to a predetermined pressure condition existing in said hydraulic lines to allow communication between said hydraulic cylinder and said hydraulic line. Accordingly, should there be a rupture in the hydraulic line directing hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic cylinder, the predetermined pressure condition would not exist in the hydraulic line and the operator would not be able to actuate the vent valve means in order to lower the load held in position by the hydraulic cylinder until the predetermined pressure condition was again established in the hydraulic line. Consequently, should the hydraulic line be ruptured, the operator cannot inadvertently or unknowingly initiate load lowering, and in progress lowering ceases.
- Fig. 1 shows an overall schematic circuit diagram of an embodiment of a hydraulic load lifting system of the invention which includes a vent valve for actuating a cylinder mounted check valve.
- Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the vent valve and the check valve as depicted in Fig. 1.
- Fig. 2A is a cross-sectional view of the vent valve and the check valve of Fig. 2 with the spool of the vent valve moved to another position.
- Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a blocker valve as depicted in Fig. 1.
- FIG. 3A is a cross-sectional view of the blocker valve of Fig. 3 with one of the spools thereof moved to another position.
- Fig. 3B is a view similar to Fig. 3 with the other of the spools moved to another position.
- Fig. 4 Is a cross-sectional view of a sequence valve as depicted in Fig. 1.
- the hydraulic load lifting system of Fig. 1 is designated by the numeral 10 and includes load supporting hydraulic motor means such as hydraulic jacks or cylinders 12 and a control circuit 14 operatively connected to control the extension of such cylinders 12 for raising load 16 and the retraction of cylinders 12 for lowering load 16.
- the cylinders 12 include a head end 18 and a rod end 20.
- Control circuit 14 includes a fluid reservoir 22, a main pump 24 connected for drawing fluid from the reservoir 22 and a pilot operated main control valve 26.
- a pump line 28. connects pump 24 to the main control valve 26.
- the control valve 26 is selectively positioned between the depicted neutral or hold position and either of the two other operative positions for raising and lowering load 16.
- the control valve 26 communicates with the reservoir 22 by way of a tank line 30.
- a relief valve 32 selectively controls communication between the pump line 28 and the tank line 30 to limit the maximum pressure in the control circuit between the pump 24 and the control valve 26.
- The. control valve 26 is further connected to the head end 18 and the rod end 20 of the cylinders 12 by main control lines 34 and 36, respectively.
- a pair of main control line relief valves 38 and 40 limit the maximum pressure in the control lines 34 and 36 and the control circuit 14 on the cylinder side of control valve 26.
- a pair of identical load check valves 46 and 48 communicate with main control line 34 and with each of the head ends 18 of the hydraulic cylinders 12.
- the purpose of such load check valves 46 and 48 is to avoid downward drifting of the load 16 due to leakage through the main control valve 26 and to prevent uncontrolled lowering of the load 16 in the event of a line failure. While a schematic drawing in Fig. 1 shows valves 46 and 48 as being somewhat spaced from cylinders 12, they are preferably mounted directly on their respective cylinders or integral therewith to allevlate the possibility of a line failure between cylinders 12 and the load check valve 46 and 48.
- the control circuit 14 is provided with vent valves 50 and 52 which are mounted directly to load check valves 46 and 48 respectively, and actuating means 51 for actuating vent valves 50 and 52 subject to a predetermined pressure condition existing in line 34.
- Means 51 includes a blocker valve 54 which communicates with and can provide a positive pressure signal to vent valves 50 and 52 by a line 56, and a communication means 59 comprising a one way valve 60 which is integral with a sequence valve 58. Communication means 59 as will be explained below will communicate positive pressure fluid from the blocker valve 54 to line 34 absent a predetermined pressure in line 34. Blocker valve 54 will selectively vent the load check valves 46 and 48, as will be discussed further hereinbelow.
- a pilot control system is provided for selectively and simultaneously controlling the operation of the main control valve 26 and the blocker valve 54.
- the pilot system includes a pilot pump 64 connected for drawing fluid from the reservoir 22. Pilot pump 64 supplies fluid to the pilot control valve 66 by a pilot pressure line 68. Line 68 is shown dotted as are all the other pilot lines described below.
- the pilot control valve 66 communicates with the reservoir 22 through a pilot line 70.
- a relief valve 72 is disposed between pilot pressure line 68 and pilot line 70 to maintain the pressure in the pilot system at a predetermined level.
- pilot control valve 66 is further communicated with the opposite ends of the main control valve 26 by way of pilot pressure lines 74 and 76 for providing actuation of the main control valve 26 to one of three positions depending on the position of pilot control valve 66, as can be appreciated by one of ordinary skill in the art.
- pilot pressure for system 62 can come directly from main pump 24 described below.
- the pilot pressure line 74 also communicates with pilot pressure line 75 which communicates with blocker valve 54 to communicate pilot fluid thereto when pilot fluid is directed to the main control valve 26 to shift the control valve 26 to the hydraulic cylinder lowering position.
- a pilot pressure line 78 provides a positive pressure fluid signal from pilot pressure line 68 to blocker valve 54.
- Blocker valve 54 and vent valves 50 and 52 are further provided in communication by return lines 80 and 81.
- Return line 80 also communicates with reservoir 22.
- a pilot pressure line 82 communicates pilot fluid from blocker valve 54 to one way valve 60, the significance of which will be discussed hereinbelow.
- Load check valve 46 includes a valve body 90 which defines a passage 92.
- Check valve 46 selectively communicates main control line 34 with fluid line 94 which communicates with the head end 18 of the adjacent hydraulic cylinder 12, and additionally communicates main control line 34 with equalizer line 96 which communicates with the other check valve 48.
- a manually operated load lowering valve 84 (Fig. 1) communicates with line 96. Valve 84 communicates with tank 22 through a return line 86. Accordingly, load 16 can be lowered should, for example, the engine driven pumps 24 and 64 fail, by draining fluid from the head ends 18 of cylinders 12 through valve 84 to reservoir 22. As shown in Fig. 2, a spool 98 is urged by a spring 100 mounted in spring cavity 102 into a position so as to block passage 92. In order to raise load 16 control valve 26 directs hydraulic fluid through line 34 against spool 98, urging said spool 98 into spring cavity 102 against spring 100.
- Vent valve 50 is provided with a signal comprised of pressurized hydraulic fluid through line 56 from blocker valve 54.
- Vent valve 50 includes a valve body 120 which defines a bore 122.

- annular metering recess 150 comes in to fluid communication with annular channel 126 such that spring chamber 102 is vented to line 80.
- This allows the fluid pressure in the head end of the cylinder to urge spool 98 into spring chamber 102 and provide communication with head end 18 and control line 34 for lowering the load 16.
- a fluid signal is provided to line 56 to urge spool 134 into the second position, some of said fluid signal is passed through orifice 146 into axial passage 144, radial bore 148 and to return line 80 in order to keep the vent valve

- a spool 260 Disposed in rear portion 245 of longitudinal passage 242 is a spool 260.
- Spool 260 includes a first end 262 which defines a beveled edge 264.
- the other end 266 of spool 260 defines a cavity 268 which receives at least a portion of spring 270 which is additionally received in spring cavity 246.

- system 10 can be incorporated in, for example, an excavator and the like.
- the operation of the above hydraulic load lifting system 10 is as follows.
- pump 64 With the engine of the vehicle running, such that both pumps 24 and 64 are operable, pump 64 provides pressurized pilot fluid to line 78.
- the pressurized pilot fluid in line 78 urges spool 216 of blocker valve 54 to the actuated position (Fig. 3) such that pressure line 82 is charged. If the portion of main control line 34 between sequence valve 58 and vented load check valves 46 and 48 is fully operable, the pressure therein will be made equal to the pressure in line 82 by means of flow through one-way valve 60 and spool 216 remains in the actuated position.
- pilot control valve 66 is actuated to actuate main control valve 26 to provide hydraulic fluid through the main control line 34 which urges spool 260 of sequence valve 58 rightwardly, providing communication of fluid to the remainder of line 34 and to load check valve 46 and 48.
- the pressure in line 34 forces the spool 98 of check valves 46 and 48 to open, allowing hydraulic fluid to flow into the cylinders 12 to raise the load 16.
- pilot control valve 66 is properly actuated in order to actuate main control valve 26 to allow hydraulic fluid to flow into main control line 36 and from main control line 34 to tank.
- pilot control valve 66 directs a pilot signal through line 75 urging spool 192 rightwardly to the position shown in Fig. 3A.
- spool 192 allows pilot fluid pressure to flow from pilot pressure line 78 through annular recesses 176 and 178, axial passage 188, and annular recesses 206 and 208 of spool bore 162 to line 56.
- Pilot fluid pressure in line 56 urges spools 134 of vent valves 50 and 52 upwardly so that annular metering recess 150 provides fluid communication between annular channels 126 and 130 allowing the spring cavity 102 to drain through return line 80.
- hydraulic fluid is provided through the orifice 146 and an axial passage 144 of spool 134 when pilot pressure is provided through line 56.
- This hydraulic fluid also flows through radial bore 148.
- the pressure drop across orifice 146 provides a force to overcome the bias of spring 138 and moves spool 134 to an open position.
- This hydraulic fluid keeps the valve 50 at normal operating temperatures even in cold ambient conditions so that valve 50 is responsive to changing conditions in line 56 and is not slowed up by hydraulic fluid that has not been heated to the proper operating temperature.
- spring chamber 140 is in fluid communication with axial passage 144.
- the spring 234 will urge spool 2l6 leftwardly due to the reduced pressure in annular recess 204 causing spool 216 to block communication between annular recess 206 and annular recess 208 and thus blocking communication between passage 188 and line 56.
- T-shaped passage 224 will come into communication with line 56 allowing any fluid in line 56 to be drained therefrom through blocker valve 54 and to tank through line 8l.
- main control valve 26 and spool 192 will not allow the loads 16 to be lowered as spool 216 in said blocker valve 54 will prevent signal pilot pressure from entering line 56 to actuate vent valves 50 and 52 to vent the spring chambers of load check valves 46 and 48.
- orifice 186 restricts the flow of fluid to recess 204 from line 78 such that if line 34 should rupture, the flow of fluid from line 78 will not maintain sufficient pressure in recess 204 to maintain spool 216 in a rightward position. Spool 216 will immediately move to the leftward position shown in Fig. 3B.
- the invention solves the disadvantages of the prior art device as the load 16 is not allowed to lower if there is a rupture in the main control line 34, except as indicated above by operation of manual valve 84. Further, the motor of the vehicle must be operable and running in order to power the pilot pressure system 62 to provide a positive pressure pilot signal to blocker valve 54 and thus to vent valves 50 and 52 in order to allow the load 16 to be lowered.
