Abstract:
A hydraulic pressure supply unit has two exits (6, 7) that are alternately pressurized, a reversible pumping unit comprising at least two pumps (9, 10) as well as a reversible electric motor (11) that drives all pumps jointly, if necessary with mutually de-locking check valves (8) before the exits. Furthermore envisioned is a supply for hydraulic medium. One pump is configured as a low-pressure pump (10) and one pump is configured as a high-pressure pump (9), and whereby the pressurized exits of both pumps are placed against the same exit (6, 7) of the pressure supply unit. In order to provide, with a simple setup and the highest possible level of flexibility in terms of the configuration of the system, a large quantity of hydraulic medium for both working directions until a pressure level that can be preset is reached and, following the reaching of this pressure level, to provide said hydraulic medium at high pressure, it is envisioned that both exits of high-pressure pump (9) are separated from low-pressure pump (10) via check valves (10, 13), and each pump (9, 10) is connected to the supply for hydraulic medium via its own shuttle valve (14, 15); it is also envisioned that both exits of low-pressure pump (10) can be connected to tank (12) via pressure on-off valves (16, 17), and whereby the control connections of pressure on-off valves (16, 17) are connected to the exits of high-pressure pump (9) in such a way that the control connection of that pressure on-off valve (16, 17) on the currently pressurized side is applied with pressure by the currently pressurized exit of high-pressure pump (9).
Abstract:
A fluid flow control valve assembly that can be actuated using an electrically operated or pneumatically operated flow control valve includes a valve body having a fluid supply passageway, a fluid exhaust passageway, and a fluid bypass passageway. A pilot operated relief valve is disposed in the fluid bypass passageway, wherein the pilot operated relief valve blocks the fluid bypass passageway to create a pressure upstream of the pilot operated relief valve to actuate a different pilot operated device having a pilot line in fluid communication with the fluid bypass passageway upstream of the pilot operated relief valve. Fluid flowing through a venturi nozzle in the fluid bypass passageway that intersects the fluid exhaust passageway lowers the pressure in the fluid exhaust passageway.
Abstract:
A control device for hydraulically operated hoisting mechanisms used to raise and lower loads includes an electrically controllable throttle valve connected to a return line of the hoisting mechanism, and a pressure scale with at least one blocking position and one control position. The pressure scale operates in conjunction with an unblocking mechanism. When in its normal position, the pressure scale blocks the return line. The pressure scale assumes its control position in lowering of a load as a result of triggering of the unblocking mechanism. In the event of failure of the throttle valve, the pressure scale may be moved to its blocking position by the unblocking mechanism. In the event of failure of the pressure scale, the throttle valve assumes its blocking position. The load retention function is performed by two series-connected closed hydraulic actuators which can be electrically controlled individually. Both a hydraulic redundancy and an electric redundancy of the load retention function are provided as a result, so that higher safety requirements are satisfied.
Abstract:
A buffered valve having a longitudinal passage leading to a valve chamber. The valve chamber is divided by a spacer into a front and rear chamber which are connected by a port in the spacer. A normally closed main valve member is in the front chamber which blocks the longitudinal passage. A sub-valve which has a vessel or cup-like configuration is in the rear valve chamber and is biased toward the port in the spacer by a coil spring. The sub-valve has a through hole which is blocked by a check valve. Adjustable passages are provided for connecting between the front and rear chambers of the valve. When the main valve opens, the flow of fluid from behind the main valve member to the rear chamber is restricted by the port in the spacer and the sub-valve assembly to provide a buffered valve action. When the main valve is closing, the flow of fluid is again restricted by the passage in the sub-valve and the port in the spacer to provide a buffered action. The main valve member has an attached buffer member which substantially interferes with the flow of fluid through the longitudinal passage increasing the buffering action.

A second control conduit (5) including a first restrictor (6), is arranged to convey a load pressure (PL) that acts at the motor port connection (A′) from a second connection point (7) positioned between the flow regulating valve (F) and the motor port connection (A′) via the first restrictor (6) to a third connection point (8) at which a first control pressure (Pc) acts and which third connection point (8) is connected to the pressure regulator (R) to act on the same in the opening direction by means of said first control pressure (Pc), wherein the third connection point (8) is connected to the low pressure connection (T), via an adjustable second restrictor (9).
Abstract:
A hydraulic drive system for a track device of crawler type has right and left hydraulic track motors. The hydraulic drive system is capable of correcting for skew occurring in the straight line traveling of the track device. A traveling test is conducted upon shipment from a factory. If skew is noted during the test, a plug disposed on the side of a valve opening-side pressure receiving portion of a pressure compensating valve for the track which is lower in speed is removed and, replaced with an adjusting mechanism-mounted plug having an adjusting pin. The pin is operated so as to strengthen a biasing force of a target compensating differential pressure adjusting spring. An opening in the pressure compensating valve is thereby corrected in an opening direction and a flow rate to one of the left and right track motors is thereby adjusted to be equal to the other motor.
Abstract:
A hydraulic drive system (1) including a meter-in compensator (37) and a bleed-off compensator (42) comprises a plurality of sensors (64 to 68), a controller (62), and an outlet pressure switching valve (61) The controller (62) determines whether or not the state of a wheel loader (2) which is detected based on the signals output from the sensors (64 to 68) meets a predetermined steering limiting condition. When the controller (62) determines that the state of the wheel loader (2) meets the steering limiting condition, it outputs a command signal to the outlet pressure switching valve (61). The outlet pressure switching valve (61) reduces the flow rate of the hydraulic oil flowing to steering cylinders (18L, 18R), in response to the command signal in such a manner that the flow rate becomes lower than that corresponding to the operation amount of a handle of a steering device (35).
