Description

Technical Field

[0002] At present, excavators are increasingly widely used in the field of construction machinery. An excavator has a variety of series of actions. For example, the leveling action and the dumping and loading action are the most commonly used series of actions of an excavator. Among the two construction actions included, the leveling action is the combined action of boom lifting and stick digging, and the dumping and loading action is the combined action of boom lifting and slewing. In many cases, it is necessary to adjust the leveling or dumping and loading actions under different construction conditions. However, after the operability of the current excavator is determined, the priority of the leveling action and the dumping and loading action has been determined, and the selection of the priority in the mode cannot be performed. To adapt to the leveling or dumping and loading operations under different construction conditions, it can only be controlled by the operator's experience, which requires a high level of the operator and thus results in a high labor cost.

[0043] Embodiment 1

[0044] This embodiment provides a custom action priority control hydraulic system. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the custom action priority control hydraulic system includes an operator 100, a controller 200, a hydraulic actuator 300, and a hydraulic oil circuit. Specifically, the hydraulic oil circuit includes a hydraulic pump 410, a priority valve 420, a reversing main valve 430, a pilot pump 440, and a solenoid valve 450. More specifically, the hydraulic pump 410 is connected to the priority valve 420 through a pipeline, the priority valve 420 is connected to the reversing main valve 430 through an oil circuit, and the reversing main valve 430 is connected to the hydraulic actuator 300 through a pipeline; the pilot pump 440 is connected to the hydraulic pump 410, and the reversing main valve 430 is connected to the pilot pump 440 through a pilot oil circuit (the pilot oil circuit is not fully shown in the figure); the solenoid valve 450 is respectively connected to the pilot pump 440 and the priority valve 420 through pipelines; the controller 200 is connected to the solenoid valve 450, the operator 100 is connected to the controller 200, the operator 100 is configured to be able to send a control signal to the controller 200, and the controller 200 is configured to be able to receive the control signal and control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 450 according to the control signal, and further control the opening and closing of the priority valve 420.

[0045] In this embodiment, by Figure 1The engine 600 therein powers the hydraulic pump 410. The hydraulic pump 410 is connected to the hydraulic actuator 300 through the main oil circuit. A priority valve 420 and a reversing main valve 430 are sequentially arranged on the main oil circuit from near the hydraulic pump 410 to away from the hydraulic pump 410. At the same time, a pilot pump 440 connected in series with the hydraulic pump 410 provides a pilot pressure, and the pilot pressure can push the reversing main valve 430 to change its direction. The opening and closing of the priority valve 420 and the direction change of the reversing main valve 430 can both connect or cut off the main oil circuit. During operation, if it is necessary to start the hydraulic actuator 300 preferentially, then: First, use the pilot pressure provided by the pilot pump 440 to push the reversing main valve 430 to change its direction to conduct the main oil circuit. Then, send a control signal to the controller 200 through the operator 100. After receiving the control signal, the controller 200 controls the solenoid valve 450 to open according to the control signal and then controls the priority valve 420 to open. When the priority valve 420 opens, hydraulic oil in the main oil circuit flows into the hydraulic actuator 300 through the reversing main valve 430, thereby driving the hydraulic actuator 300 to act. When it is necessary to stop the hydraulic actuator 300 from acting, the pilot pump 440 stops providing the pilot pressure to the reversing main valve 430, and the reversing main valve 430 returns to its original position, cutting off the main oil circuit, so that the hydraulic actuator 300 stops acting.

[0046] In multiple alternative embodiments of this embodiment, the hydraulic drive part of the boom cylinder or swing motor or other moving structural parts of the excavator can be used as the hydraulic actuator 300. For example, referring to Figure 1 , that is, using the boom cylinder of the excavator as the hydraulic actuator 300, referring to Figure 2 , then using the swing motor of the excavator as the hydraulic actuator 300. In this embodiment, the operator 100 can manually control whether the hydraulic actuator 300 acts preferentially. The overall structure of this embodiment is simple, convenient to implement, has low requirements for operators, is beneficial to saving labor costs, and can reduce the operation error rate and improve the engineering safety.

[0047] In an alternative embodiment of this embodiment, preferably, the solenoid valve 450 is a proportional solenoid valve, and the controller 200 is configured to be able to control the opening degree of the proportional solenoid valve according to the control signal under the condition that the proportional solenoid valve is opened, and then control the opening degree of the priority valve 420. Through such a structure, the flow rate of the hydraulic oil entering the reversing main valve 430 can be controlled by adjusting the opening degree of the priority valve 420, so as to adjust the flow rate of the hydraulic oil that the main oil circuit can enter the hydraulic actuator 300, and further achieve the function of controlling the action speed of the hydraulic actuator 300.

[0048] Further preferably, the operator 100 adopts a knob operator, and the knob operator has multiple selection levels, and each selection level corresponds to an opening degree of the solenoid valve 450. Thus, the opening degree of the solenoid valve 450 can be changed by rotating the knob on the knob operator corresponding to the selection level, and further the action speed of the hydraulic actuator 300 can be controlled, which has the beneficial effects of simple operation selection and strong practicability.

The first priority valve 421 is connected to the first main directional valve 431 through an oil circuit. The first main directional valve 431 is connected to the first hydraulic actuator 310 through a pipeline. The first main directional valve 431 is connected to the pilot pump 440 through a pipeline. The first solenoid valve 451 is respectively connected to the pilot pump 440 and the first priority valve 421 through pipelines.

The controller 200 is configured to be able to control the opening and closing of the second solenoid valve 452 according to a control signal, and further control the opening and closing of the second priority valve 422.

[0052] In this embodiment, the engine 600 in Figure 3 can provide power for the hydraulic pump 410. The hydraulic pump 410 is connected to the first hydraulic actuator 310 through a first main oil circuit. The first priority valve 421 and the first main directional valve 431 are sequentially arranged on the first main oil circuit from near the hydraulic pump 410 to far from the hydraulic pump 410. At the same time, the pilot pump 440 connected in series with the hydraulic pump 410 can provide pilot pressure for the first main directional valve 431. The pilot pressure can push the first main directional valve 431 to change direction. The opening and closing of the first priority valve 421 and the change of direction of the first main directional valve 431 can both connect or cut off the first main oil circuit. The hydraulic pump 410 is also connected to the second hydraulic actuator 320 through a second main oil circuit.

[0053] During operation, if it is necessary to start the first hydraulic actuator 310 preferentially, the following steps are taken: First, use the pilot pressure provided by the pilot pump 440 to push the first reversing main valve 431 to reverse to conduct the first main oil circuit. Then, send a control signal from the operator 100 to the controller 200. After receiving the control signal, the controller 200 controls the first solenoid valve 451 to open according to the control signal, and then controls the first priority valve 421 to open. When the first priority valve 421 opens, hydraulic oil in the first main oil circuit flows into the first hydraulic actuator 310 through the first reversing main valve 431, thereby driving the first hydraulic actuator 310 to act. When it is necessary to stop the first hydraulic actuator 310 from acting, stop the pilot pump 440 from providing pilot pressure to the first reversing main valve 431. The first reversing main valve 431 returns to its original position, and the first main oil circuit is cut off, so that the first hydraulic actuator 310 stops acting. If it is necessary to start the second hydraulic actuator 320 preferentially, the following steps are taken: First, use the pilot pressure provided by the pilot pump 440 to push the second reversing main valve 432 to reverse to conduct the second main oil circuit. Then, send a control signal from the operator 100 to the controller 200. After receiving the control signal, the controller 200 controls the second solenoid valve 452 to open according to the control signal, and then controls the second priority valve 422 to open. When the second priority valve 422 opens, hydraulic oil in the second main oil circuit flows into the second hydraulic actuator 320 through the second reversing main valve 432, thereby driving the second hydraulic actuator 320 to act. When it is necessary to stop the second hydraulic actuator 320 from acting, stop the pilot pump 440 from providing pilot pressure to the second reversing main valve 432. The second reversing main valve 432 returns to its original position, and the second main oil circuit is cut off, so that the second hydraulic actuator 320 stops acting. If it is necessary to start the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the second hydraulic actuator 320 simultaneously prior to other actuators, the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the second hydraulic actuator 320 can be started simultaneously in the above manner. When closing, the first main oil circuit and the second main oil circuit can be cut off simultaneously or the first main oil circuit and the second main oil circuit can be cut off sequentially according to the required order.

[0054] In multiple alternative embodiments of this embodiment, one of the boom cylinder and the swing motor of the excavator can be used as the first hydraulic actuator 310, and the other of the boom cylinder and the swing motor of the excavator can be used as the second hydraulic actuator 320. For example, referring to Figure 3 , that is, using the boom cylinder of the excavator as the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the swing motor of the excavator as the second hydraulic actuator 320. In this embodiment, the operator 100 can manually control whether the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the second hydraulic actuator 320 act preferentially. The overall structure of this embodiment is simple, convenient and easy to implement, has low requirements for operators, is beneficial to saving labor costs, and can reduce the operation error rate and improve the engineering safety.

[0055] Under many construction conditions of this embodiment, preferably, the controller 200 is configured to: in the first condition, control the first solenoid valve 451 to open and the second solenoid valve 452 to close according to the control signal, and then control the first priority valve 421 to open and the second priority valve 422 to close; and in the second condition, control the second solenoid valve 452 to open and the first solenoid valve 451 to close according to the control signal, and then control the second priority valve 422 to open and the first priority valve 421 to close, so as to selectively start the first hydraulic actuator 310 or the second hydraulic actuator 320 preferentially.

[0056] In the above-preferred embodiment, further preferably, both the first solenoid valve 451 and the second solenoid valve 452 are proportional solenoid valves; the controller 200 is configured to: in the condition where the first solenoid valve 451 is open, control the opening degree of the first solenoid valve 451 according to the control signal, and then control the opening degree of the first priority valve 421; or, in the condition where the second solenoid valve 452 is open, control the opening degree of the second solenoid valve 452 according to the control signal, and then control the opening degree of the second priority valve 422. With such a structure, the flow rate entering the first reversing main valve 431 or the second reversing main valve 432 can be controlled by adjusting the opening degree of the first priority valve 421 or the second priority valve 422, so as to adjust the hydraulic oil flow rate that the first main oil circuit can enter the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the hydraulic oil flow rate that the second main oil circuit can enter the second hydraulic actuator 320, and further achieve the function of controlling the action speed of the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the second hydraulic actuator 320.

[0057] Further preferably, the operator 100 adopts a knob operator, and the knob operator has a first gear position and a second gear position, and the first gear position and the second gear position respectively have multiple selection levels; the first gear position corresponds to the first solenoid valve 451 being open and the second solenoid valve 452 being closed, and the second gear position corresponds to the second solenoid valve 452 being open and the first solenoid valve 451 being closed; each selection level respectively corresponds to an opening degree of the solenoid valve 450 that is open in the corresponding gear position. Thus, the selective action of the first hydraulic actuator 310 and the second hydraulic actuator 320 can be selected by rotating the knob on the knob operator to correspond to the gear position, and at the same time, after selecting the action of one hydraulic actuator 300, rotate to the required level to change the opening degree of the corresponding solenoid valve 450, and then control the action speed of the corresponding hydraulic actuator 300, which has the beneficial effects of simple operation selection and strong practicability.
