The steering axle also includes a hydraulic steering system, and the hydraulic steering system includes an oil cylinder 7 and a hydraulic system. The oil cylinder 7 includes a cylinder body 8, in which a partition plate 9 is fixedly arranged, and a first piston 10 is provided in the cylinder body on one side of the partition plate along the cylinder body axis direction in a sliding and sealing manner.

A first mounting hole for sliding and sealing installation of the first piston rod is provided on the partition plate, and a second mounting hole for sliding and sealing installation of the second piston rod is provided at one end of the cylinder body. The first piston 10 and the cylinder body form a first cavity 15, the first piston, the partition and the cylinder body form a second cavity 16, the partition, the second piston and the cylinder body form a third cavity 17, and the second piston and the cylinder body form a fourth cavity 18. The cylinder body is provided with at least one first oil port 19 communicating with the first cavity, the cylinder body is provided with at least one second oil port 20 communicating with the second cavity, the cylinder body is provided with at least one third oil port 21 communicating with the third cavity, and the cylinder body is provided with at least one fourth oil port 22 communicating with the fourth cavity. In this embodiment, the number of the first oil port 19, the second oil port 20, the third oil port 21 and the fourth oil port 22 are all one. In this embodiment, one end of the oil cylinder 7 is hinged to the axle 3, and the piston rod is hinged to the tie rod 7.

[0024] The hydraulic system includes hydraulic lines for communicating with corresponding ports on the cylinder body to realize the hydraulic power steering function and the hydraulic self-steering function. The following will introduce the different functions that can be realized when the oil cylinder cooperates with different hydraulic systems.

[0025] Hydraulic power steering system: Figure 5As shown, at this time, the hydraulic system includes a tractor steering cylinder 23 and a tractor hydraulic steering device 24, and the tractor steering cylinder and the tractor hydraulic steering device are connected through a first oil circuit 25 and a second oil circuit 26 to form a circuit. The tractor steering device and the tractor steering cylinder are both provided by the tractor and are used to control the steering. The hydraulic pipeline includes a third oil circuit 27 connecting the third oil port 21 and the first oil circuit 25, and the hydraulic pipeline also includes a fourth oil circuit 28 connecting the fourth oil port 22 and the second oil circuit 26. A vent plug 30 is provided at the second oil port 20, and the first oil port 19 is connected to the oil tank 29. A first accumulator 32 is provided on the third oil circuit 27, and a second accumulator 34 is provided on the fourth oil circuit 28. The accumulator can play a role of buffering and high-pressure oil source supplement to a certain extent. The function of the vent plug is to connect the atmosphere with the second cavity, and the second cavity can freely adjust the air capacity when the piston rod moves telescopically. A first throttle valve 31 is provided on the third oil circuit 27, and a second throttle valve 33 is provided on the fourth oil circuit 28. The setting of the throttle valve can slow down the flow rate of the oil, form resistance, and play a role in buffering and shock absorption, eliminating the need to separately set a shock absorber on the tie rod in the prior art.

[0026] The principle of the hydraulic power steering function realized by the oil cylinder is as follows: For the convenience of description, the two oil ports of the tractor steering oil cylinder are defined as oil port A and oil port B respectively. Figure 5 As shown. When the tractor steering system supplies high-pressure oil to oil port A, oil port B is connected to the oil return line, and the high-pressure oil also flows into the third cavity through the third oil port. The fourth cavity is connected to the oil return line like oil port B. At this time, the high-pressure oil pushes the piston rod to extend, which can drive the steering knuckle arm to rotate, so that the vehicle can turn to one side. On the contrary, when oil port A is connected to the oil return line and oil port B is connected to the high-pressure oil line, the third cavity is connected to the oil return line and the fourth cavity is connected to the high-pressure line. The high-pressure oil pushes the piston rod to retract, which can drive the steering knuckle arm to rotate, so that the vehicle can turn to the other side. At this time, the function of hydraulic power steering is realized.

[0027] Hydraulic self-steering system: Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, at this time, the hydraulic system includes a first reversing valve 35 and a second reversing valve 36, and the hydraulic pipeline includes a fifth oil circuit 37 connecting the first oil port 19 and the first reversing valve 35, a sixth oil circuit 38 connecting the third oil port 21 and the second reversing valve 36, and a seventh oil circuit 39 connecting the fourth oil port 22 and the second reversing valve 36. A vent plug is provided at the second oil port. The hydraulic pipeline also includes a main oil circuit 43, an eighth oil circuit 41 connecting the main oil circuit 43 and the first reversing valve 35, and a ninth oil circuit 42 connecting the main oil circuit 43 and the second reversing valve 36. The first reversing valve has a first working position connecting the fifth oil circuit and the eighth oil circuit and a second working position connecting the fifth oil circuit and the oil tank. The second reversing valve has a first working position connecting the sixth oil circuit and the seventh oil circuit, and the second reversing valve also has a second working position connecting the seventh oil circuit and the ninth oil circuit while the sixth oil circuit and the oil tank are connected. A third throttle valve 40 is provided on the sixth oil circuit 38. The first reversing valve is used for switching between forced centering and self-steering modes. The second steering valve is used for opening and closing and reversing the oil circuit between the third cavity and the fourth cavity to extend or retract the piston rod, and can also connect the third cavity and the fourth cavity for automatic steering. The vent plug is connected to the second cavity for free breathing of the second cavity.

[0028] The principle of the hydraulic cylinder to realize the hydraulic power steering function is: when the first reversing valve is in the first working position and the second reversing valve is in the second working position, Figure 6 As shown, the first cavity and the fourth cavity are connected to the high-pressure oil source, and the third cavity is connected to the return oil pipeline. At this time, the first piston moves to the right, and the piston rod retracts. Since the force area of ​​the first piston is larger than that of the second piston, the first piston will move to the right to the partition position and remain motionless under the action of the hydraulic oil pressure, so that the piston rod is in the middle stroke position, which is the so-called forced centering. At this time, the axle is in a straight state. When the first reversing valve is in the second working position and the second reversing valve is in the first working position, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the first cavity is connected to the oil return pipeline and is pressure-free, and the third cavity is connected to the fourth cavity. At this time, the axle is in a self-steering state.

[0029] When in use, when the oil cylinder of the above structure is equipped with different hydraulic systems, the functions of the hydraulic power steering system and the hydraulic self-steering system can be realized, and the versatility is strong. The oil cylinder of the same structure can be used for the hydraulic power steering system and the hydraulic self-steering system, saving costs.

[0030] A second embodiment of a steering bridge of the present invention is as follows Figure 7 As shown, the only difference from the first embodiment is the position where the piston rod is hinged. In this embodiment, the piston rod is hinged on the right steering knuckle arm.

[0031] In other embodiments of the present invention, the number of the first oil port, the second oil port, the third oil port and the fourth oil port may also be adjusted according to actual needs. For example, in order to adjust the flow rate, the number of each oil port may be two or more; the piston rod may also be hinged to the left steering knuckle arm; if the use is satisfactory, a throttle valve may not be provided on the hydraulic pipeline; if the use is satisfactory, an accumulator may not be provided on the hydraulic pipeline; a protrusion may be provided on the side of the first piston located in the first cavity, and a groove for accommodating the first part of the piston rod may be provided on the other side of the first piston.

[0032] The embodiment of a multifunctional steering cylinder of the present invention has the same function as the cylinder in each embodiment of the above-mentioned steering axle, and will not be described in detail here.
