Definitions
- the invention relates to a gas spring device, for example, to support the opening movement or to keep open a motor vehicle tailgate.
- Gas spring devices of the type discussed here are known. They serve, for example, to support the applied manual force for opening or closing a tailgate. Such gas spring devices also allow automatic opening or closing, for example, a tailgate without the use of manual power. It has been found in the known gas spring devices that may result in a disability of the movement of a motor vehicle tailgate, damage to the gas spring device or injury to persons. To avoid this, overpressure valves can be used, but this increases the cost of such a gas spring device and its space requirements.

- the opening of the control chamber connected to the gas spring accumulator is connected to the openings communicating with the cylinder-piston device.
- the openings of the control chamber, which are connected to the cylinder-piston device are also connected to each other.

- Figure 6 shows a structural design of a valve device
- FIG. 1 shows a gas spring device 1 which is filled with a fluid, for example hydraulic oil, and comprises a fluid delivery device 2 which can be driven, for example, by an electric motor 3.
- the direction of rotation of the electric motor 3 is the redesignrich- tion of the fluid conveyor 2 before. This is preferably designed as a re versierpumpe.
- the electric motor 3 does not drive the fluid delivery device 2, ie it is switched off, so that no hydraulic oil is conveyed through the fluid delivery device 2.
- the gas spring device 1 further comprises a cylinder-piston device 5, which has a hydraulic piston 7 and a piston rod 9, which are movably mounted in the cylinder-piston device 5.
- the cylinder-piston device 5 also comprises two cylinder chambers 11 and 13, which are arranged spatially separated from each other by the hydraulic piston 7.
- the hydraulic piston 7 is movably mounted with the piston rod 9 in the cylinder-piston device 5.
- the hydraulic piston 7 has a smaller effective area 14a and a larger effective area 14b.
- the smaller effective area 14a corresponds to the effective area 14b minus the cross-sectional area of the piston rod 9.
- the gas spring device 1 in Figure 1 also includes a valve means 15. This is, for example, as shown in Figure 1, designed as a pressure-controlled 5/3-way valve.
- the valve device 15 has, inter alia, two return springs 17 and 19 and a control piston 21, shown schematically here by means of switching symbols.
- the gas spring device 1 in FIG. 1 also has a gas spring accumulator 23 which serves, in conjunction with the hydraulic piston 7, to obtain the characteristic of a gas spring.
- the gas spring accumulator 23 is under a pressure also referred to as biasing pressure and stores excess hydraulic oil, which the result of the arranged in the cylinder chamber 11 piston rod 9 different maximum capacity of the two cylinder chambers 11 and 13 results.
- the fluid delivery device 2 is connected via lines 25 and 27 with here only indicated openings 29 and 31 of a control chamber of the valve device 15, not shown.
- the gas spring accumulator 23 is connected via a line 33 with a again only indicated opening 35 of the control chamber of the valve device 15.
- the cylinder-piston device 5 is connected via lines 37 and 39 with interpreted openings 41 and 43 of the control chamber of the valve device 15. In this case, the line 37 establishes a connection between the opening 41 of the valve device 15 and the cylinder chamber 11, while the line 39 establishes a connection between the opening 43 and the cylinder chamber 13.
- a leakage line 45 which connects the gas spring accumulator 23 to the fluid delivery device 2. This serves to keep the pretensioning pressure of the fluid delivery device 2 at a certain level, for example 100 bar.
- FIG. 2 shows a structural design of the valve device 15 of the gas spring device 1 shown in FIG. 1.
- the openings 29 and 31 connected to the fluid delivery device 2 are clearly visible in the control chamber 47.
- the opening 35 connected to the gas spring accumulator 23 is shown as well as the openings 41 and 43, which are connected to the cylinder-piston device 5.
- Figure 2 also shows the return springs 17 and 19, which act on one end 49 and 51 of the control piston 21 respectively.
- the valve device 15 has a control spring 53, which is mounted in the control chamber 47 of the valve device 15.
- the control piston 21 comprises two partial pistons 55 and 57, between which the control spring 53 is arranged.
- the control spring 53 has a higher spring stiffness than the restoring springs 17 and 19.
- the two sub-pistons 55 and 57 are constructed identically in the embodiment of Figure 2 and arranged in mirror image to each other in the control chamber 47.
- the sub-pistons 55 and 57 also have two facing abutment surfaces 59 and 61.
- the sub-pistons 55 and 57 have on their the abutment surfaces 59, 61 opposite side each formed as a hollow cylinder portion 63.
- two passages 65 and 67 are introduced and in the outer surface of the wall in each case a groove 69 and 71, into each of which a passage 65, 67 opens.
- the control chamber 47 also has two control pressure chambers 73 and 75, in which the return springs 17 and 19 are arranged, and which are each bounded on one side by the portion 63 of the control piston 21 formed as a hollow cylinder.
- the electric motor 3 does not drive the fluid delivery device 2.
- the control piston 21 is in the control chamber 47 in a neutral position.
- the spring forces of the return springs 17 and 19 provide for a centering of the control piston 21 within the control chamber 47. While the return spring 17, the sub-piston 55 and thus the control spring 53 is acted upon by spring force, the sub-piston 57 and thus also the control spring 53 with the spring force of the return spring 19 acted upon. Characterized in that the control spring 53 has a higher spring stiffness than the return springs 17 and 19, this is not significantly compressed by the force of the return springs 17 and 19. Starting from the same spring forces of the return springs 17 and 19, the control piston 21 is thus urged into a middle position or neutral position.
- control pressure chamber 73 In this neutral position of the control piston 21, the control pressure chamber 73 is connected to the fluid delivery device 2 via the passage 67 in the partial piston 55 and the opening 29. Accordingly, the control pressure chamber 75 is connected to the fluid delivery device 2 via the passage 67 in the partial piston 57 and the opening 31. Because the electric motor 3 does not drive the fluid delivery device 2, for example a reversing pump, the control pressure chambers 73 and 75 are not subjected to pressurized fluid, for example hydraulic oil.
- the openings 41 and 43 connected to the cylinder-piston device 5 are connected to one another via a region 77 of the valve device 15.
- the region 77 is arranged between the two sub-pistons 55 and 57.
- opening 35 is connected via the region 77 with the openings 41 and 43 of the control chamber 47.
- the piston rod 9 occupies a portion of the volume, the excess hydraulic oil in the gas spring accumulator 23 must be cached. If the piston rod 9 is now pulled up with manual force, corresponding to an opening movement of the tailgate, hydraulic oil is in turn directed out of the cylinder chamber 11 via the opening 41 and the opening 43 to the cylinder chamber 13. Since the capacity of the cylinder chamber 13 is greater than that of the cylinder chamber 1 1, the resulting difference volume with hydraulic oil from the gas spring accumulator 23 must be compensated.
- FIG. 3 shows a gas spring device 1 with connected fluid delivery device 2 and a first delivery position of the control piston 21. The same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the preceding figures.
- the gas spring device 1 in FIG. 3 shows a gas spring device 1 with connected fluid delivery device 2 and a first delivery position of the control piston 21. The same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the preceding figures.
- the electric motor 3 drives the fluid delivery device 2 in a first direction of rotation.
- the pump thus conveys fluid in the direction of arrow 79 via line 25 and openings 29 and 41 of valve device 15 via line 37 into cylinder chamber 11 pressed, so that the volume of the cylinder chamber 13 is reduced and there existing hydraulic oil via line 39 and the opening 43 to the valve means 15 and transported from there on the one hand via the opening 35 to the gas spring accumulator 23, and on the other hand via the opening 31 to the suction side of the fluid conveyor 2 becomes.
- the cylinder-piston device 5 is thus connected on the one hand to the fluid delivery device 2 and on the other hand to the gas spring accumulator 23.
- the first direction of rotation of the fluid delivery device 2 shown in FIG. 3 causes a downward movement of the piston rod 9 in the cylinder-piston device 5 and thus an automatic closing movement of a tailgate.
- FIG. 4 shows a gas spring device 1 with connected fluid delivery device 2 and a second delivery position of the control piston 21.
- the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the preceding figures.
- the electric motor 3 drives the fluid delivery device 2 in a second direction of rotation.
- a fluid for example a hydraulic oil, in Direction of the arrow 81 via the line 27, the openings 31 and 43 of the valve means 15 and conveyed via the line 39 into the cylinder chamber 13.
- the movement of the fluid delivery device 2 in a second direction of rotation by means of the electric motor 3 causes an extension of the piston rod 9 and thus an automatic opening movement of a tailgate.
- FIG. 5 shows a structural design of the valve device 15 shown in FIG. 3.
- the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the preceding figures.
- the first delivery position of the control piston 21 shown in FIG. 5 results from the drive of the fluid delivery device 2 by the electric motor 3 in the first direction of rotation, whereby the fluid delivery device 2 conveys hydraulic oil via the line 25, not shown, to the opening 29 of the control chamber 47.
- the pressurized hydraulic oil thus passes through the opening 29 in the control pressure chamber 73. This is acted upon by the hydraulic oil under pressure, so that the sub-piston 55 and 57 and the control spring 53 moves against the force of the return spring 19 become.
- the sub-piston 57 is pressed against the force of the return spring 19 to a stop 83 of the control chamber 47.
- control spring 53 Due to the preferably much higher rigidity of the control spring 53, this is not or only slightly compressed in the operating state described here, so that the distance between the sub-piston 55 at a nominal operating pressure, which acts on the sub-piston 55, at best only slightly changes.
- the second delivery position of the control piston 21 shown in Figure 4 is not shown here as a structural design, however, corresponds to their basic operation of the shown in Figure 5.
- the electric motor 3 drives the fluid delivery device 2 in the second direction of rotation, whereby the control pressure chamber 75 is acted upon by a pressurized fluid and the sub-piston 55 and 57 are pressed with the control spring 53 against the force of the return spring 17 until the sub-piston 55 to a Stops stop 85 of the control chamber 47.
- FIG. 6 shows the structural design of a valve device 15 in a fail-safe position, starting from a first delivery position of the control piston 21 according to FIG. 5. The same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that reference is made to the preceding figures.
- the control piston 21 is urged into the fail-safe position. This may be the case, for example, when holding the tailgate by hand.
- the hydraulic piston 7 is held in the cylinder-piston device 5 in a fixed position, but the fluid conveyor 2 promotes constantly pressurized hydraulic oil through the valve means 15 to the cylinder-piston device 5.
- valve device 15 Due to the symmetrical design of the valve device 15, a fail-safe position is also possible starting from the second delivery position of the control piston 21 according to FIG. 4 without further ado. A corresponding structural design is not shown here.
- the partial piston 57 is pressed against the force of the control spring 53 when the permissible operating pressure in the control pressure chamber 75 is exceeded, so that the stop surfaces 59 and 61 of the two sub-pistons 55 and 57 are pressed against each other and the control piston 21 is again in a fail-safe position.
- this fail-safe position of the control piston 21 there is a short circuit between the openings 29 and 31 connected to the fluid delivery device 2 via the opening 35.
- the overpressure limiting device with the control spring 53 which is arranged between two sub-pistons 55 and 57, enables a particularly simple, space-saving and cost-effective realization of an overpressure function, which can be integrated directly into a valve device.
- the permissible maximum operating pressure, which acts on pressure-carrying components of the gas spring device 1, can be adjusted, for example, via the spring stiffness of the control spring 53.
- a gas spring device 1 can be seen, which can be operated on the one hand manually with gas spring characteristic.
- the control piston 21 of the valve device 15 is in a neutral position, and the fluid delivery device 2 is not driven by the electric motor 3.
- an automatic operation of the gas spring device 1 is possible, which allows, for example, an automatic opening or closing a tailgate without the use of manual power.
- the electric motor 3 drives the fluid delivery device 2 either in the first direction of rotation or in the second direction of rotation, which respectively urges the control piston 21 into a first or second delivery position, so that the hydraulic piston 7 and the piston rod 9 either downwards or downwards move upward, whereby a motor vehicle tailgate is opened or closed.
- the control piston 21 becomes in a fail-safe position displaced so that a short circuit between the pressure and suction side of the Fluidför- device 2 and the gas spring accumulator 23 on the one hand and on the other hand a connection between the two cylinder chambers 11 and 13 of the cylinder-piston device 5 is formed so that pressure-bearing components are relieved.
- the proposed gas spring device 1 has a particularly simple and compact design and in this case comprises an effective pressure limiting device which can be integrated directly into the valve device. Thus, it requires no additional components, such as pressure relief valves or a motor current monitoring device, which otherwise requires additional electronics.
- the tailgate can be kept open with manual force during a closing process effected by the fluid conveyor without the gas spring device 1 thereby being damaged or persons being injured. LIST OF REFERENCE NUMBERS
