Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a winch drive mechanism, and in particular to a hydraulic motor balancing valve group with energy recovery and safety release functions. Background Art

[0002] When lifting, cranes often experience a power failure, leaving the load suspended in mid-air. For safety reasons, the load must be lowered. However, for particularly valuable loads, lowering the load at a low tension setting is essential. If the load remains outside the safe lowering range when power is lost, the crane must be hoisted, and the boom and slew angle adjusted, requiring additional power.

[0003] To safely lower heavy objects, a manual release function is typically employed. This is achieved by opening the winch brake and connecting the winch motor's A and B ports. Conventional motor balancing valves lack a low-tension control function between motor ports A and B. This makes it impossible to achieve low-tension control between motor ports A and B in emergency situations, hindering the effective and safe release of valuable loads. In the event of a complete power loss, conventional motor balancing valves are unable to capture the potential energy of the lowered load, making it impossible to lower the load safely in the event of a complete power loss. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a motor balancing valve that can address these issues. Summary of the Invention

[0021] Preferably, the balancing valve group is additionally provided with an L port connected to the external oil circuit system, and the l0 port of the balancing valve 2 and the t port of the hydraulically controlled reversing valve 7 are respectively connected to the L port of the balancing valve group, and the oil leakage of both is discharged to the external oil circuit system through the L port of the balancing valve group.

[0022] Preferably, the third oil circuit is connected to the HY port of the balancing valve group through the third relief valve YL3, and then enters the external oil tank; the third oil circuit is connected to the GY port of the balancing valve group through the sixth stop valve JZ6; and the third oil circuit is connected to the QJ port of the balancing valve group through the seventh stop valve JZ7.

[0024] Preferably, the balancing valve assembly further includes a second solenoid reversing valve DC2 and a first relief valve YL1. Port a of the second solenoid reversing valve DC2 communicates with the first oil circuit and port a of the first solenoid reversing valve DC1.

[0027] Preferably, a pressure sensor 8 is added to the balancing valve assembly, with the detection end of the pressure sensor 8 located in the third oil circuit. When the winch lowers a heavy object, its potential energy is converted into hydraulic energy to store in the accumulator. If the lowering is prolonged, the accumulator will be full. At this time, a signal can be sent via the pressure sensor 8 to the first electromagnetic reversing valve DC1 to cut off the flow of oil, and the oil can be released at high pressure via the second relief valve YL2. 2. If the winch is not used for an extended period of time, the accumulator pressure may decrease due to internal leakage in the balancing valve assembly. This can be monitored by the pressure sensor 8, and the accumulator can be appropriately replenished for short-distance lifting of heavy objects in emergency situations.

[0028] In the present invention, the balancing valve 2 is a flow type balancing valve 2; the stop valves JZ1 to JZ8 are all throttling stop valves; the second relief valve YL2 and the third relief valve YL3 are both high-pressure relief valves, and the first relief valve YL1 is a low-pressure relief valve.

[0029] like Figure 1As shown, the balancing valve group described in this embodiment is connected to the A1 and B1 ports of the hydraulic motor 1 respectively. The GY port of the balancing valve group is an external oil replenishment port, used to replenish high-pressure oil from other external systems into the accumulator; the HY port is the overflow port after the accumulator reaches the maximum pressure, which is directly connected to the external oil tank of the hydraulic system; the QJ port is the accumulator oil release port, used to drain the oil in the accumulator when the accumulator is damaged, replaced, cleaned, or in non-operating operations; the XQ port is the connecting oil port between the accumulator and the balancing valve block, through which the accumulator communicates oil with the balancing valve block; the L port is the main oil drain port of the balancing valve block, which is connected to the external oil tank of the hydraulic system. The other oil ports and related configurations of the balancing valve group are commonly used in the prior art and will not be repeated here. A pressure measuring point MA is added to the connecting pipe of the A1 port of the hydraulic motor 1, and a pressure measuring point MB is added to the connecting pipe of the B1 port of the hydraulic motor 1. The other configurations of the hydraulic motor 1 are all in the prior art. The following is a detailed description of this embodiment.

[0030] The working principle of this embodiment is:

[0031] 1. Safe release action

[0032] The oil in the pressure chamber of the hydraulic motor 1 enters the balancing valve group through the A1 port, flows out from the a port of the second electromagnetic reversing valve DC2 through its b port, enters through the p port of the first relief valve YL1 and flows out from its t port, flows out through the B1 port of the balancing valve group and enters the oil suction chamber of the hydraulic motor 1, realizing the high-speed and stable operation of the hydraulic motor 1 at a low tension value, so as to increase the release speed.

[0033] The leaked oil generated by the operation of hydraulic motor 1 flows out through its L1 port and into the external oil tank.

[0034] The forced oil replenishment oil enters the balancing valve group through the BY port, flows in through the a port of the one-way valve 4, flows out through its b port, and enters the oil suction chamber of the hydraulic motor 1 through the B1 port to realize the replenishment of oil.

[0035] The variable control oil flows in from the PA port of the variable control cylinder of hydraulic motor 1, enters one side of the variable control cylinder through the ya port, pushes the variable control cylinder to the right to increase the displacement of hydraulic motor 1, and the oil on the other side of the variable control cylinder flows out through the yb port, flows out from the PB port of the variable control cylinder of hydraulic motor 1, and returns to the variable balancing valve group (external) of hydraulic motor 1.

[0036] During safe release, if release is difficult (i.e., the hydraulic motor 1 does not run or runs very slowly), it means that the displacement of the hydraulic motor 1 is set too large. By reducing the displacement of the hydraulic motor 1, the pressure value of its pressure chamber can be increased, and the pressure of the pressure oil from the first relief valve YL1 can be increased, thereby increasing the operating speed of the hydraulic motor 1. Since the operation of the hydraulic motor 1 is blocked by the pressure of the first relief valve YL1, it can achieve a smooth release of heavy objects within a certain speed range.

[0037] 2. Energy recovery action during release

[0038] When releasing, first close the second stop valve JZ2, the third stop valve JZ3 and the fourth stop valve JZ4, open the fifth stop valve JZ5, and the external power source (usually a manual pump) provides pressure oil to enter through the SB port of the balance valve group, flow through the fifth stop valve JZ5, and then flow out from the SC port of the balance valve group to the hoisting brake, opening the hoisting brake; the variable control oil flows from its PB port to the yb port and enters its variable control cylinder, driving its displacement to decrease, and the oil on the other side of the variable control cylinder is discharged from the ya port to the PA port, and then flows through its external The variable control valve returns the oil to the oil tank; when the pressure value displayed at pressure measuring point MA meets the energy recovery pressure range, the first solenoid reversing valve DC1 is energized (or manually controlled if power is lost). The oil in the pressure chamber of hydraulic motor 1 (the space enclosed by port b of balancing valve 2 and the detection position of pressure measuring point MA of hydraulic motor 1) enters through port a of the first solenoid reversing valve DC1, flows out through port b, passes through the eighth shut-off valve JZ8, flows to port XQ of the balancing valve group, and then enters the (external) accumulator, achieving energy storage and recovery. After energy recovery is completed, the oil discharged from the pressure chamber of hydraulic motor 1 enters through port p of YL3 (relief valve), is discharged through port t, flows to port HY of the balancing valve group, and then flows out into the external oil tank.

[0039] When hydraulic motor 1 is operating, the oil discharged from its pressure chamber and leaked through its L1 port (drain port) during operation needs to be replenished in its suction chamber (the space enclosed by the third shut-off valve JZ3 and the pressure measuring point MB of hydraulic motor 1). External forced oil replenishment enters through the BY port of the balancing valve block, flows to the a port of DX (check valve 4), and flows out through its b port to the B1 port of the balancing valve block. After passing through B1, it flows into the suction chamber of hydraulic motor 1, completing the oil replenishment.

[0040] During energy recovery, the displacement of hydraulic motor 1 is adjusted in real time based on the pressure in the hydraulic motor 1 pressure chamber measured at port MA. The variable control oil in hydraulic motor 1 flows through port PB to port yb, ultimately entering the variable control cylinder, reducing its displacement. The oil on the other side of the variable control cylinder is discharged through port ya to port PA, then returns to the tank via the external variable control valve. During operation, the pressure in the hydraulic motor 1 pressure chamber must be higher than the set value of the third relief valve YL3 to facilitate energy recovery and smooth lowering.

[0041] 3. Recovery energy drive mechanism action

[0042] The recovered energy stored in the accumulator (external) passes through the eighth stop valve JZ8 and then the bottom air stop valve to the QJ port of the balancing valve group, and then flows out through the QJ port to the main balancing valve group (external) of other external mechanisms. Other mechanisms (rotation and amplitude adjustment, etc.) can change the rotation angle of the whole machine and the lifting amplitude, thereby realizing the spatial position movement of the lifting, so that it can be lowered within a safe range; the recovered energy stored in the (external) accumulator can also pass through the eighth stop valve JZ8 and then enter through the first electromagnetic reversing valve DC1b port, flow out through its a port, and enter the pressure chamber of the hydraulic motor 1 through the A1 port, thereby driving the hydraulic motor 1 to operate in the forward hoisting direction.

[0043] In this embodiment, the return oil flow direction is as follows:

[0044] 1. When the load is lifted, the oil enters through port A of the balancing valve group, passes through balancing valve 2, enters port A1 of the balancing valve group, and then flows to the pressure chamber of hydraulic motor 1. After the hydraulic motor 1 is running, the oil flows out through port B1 and enters the balancing valve group, passes through the third stop valve JZ3, flows to port B of the balancing valve group, and then flows out and enters the external main balancing valve group;

[0045] 2. During safety release, the oil in the pressure chamber of hydraulic motor 1 enters the balancing valve group through port A1, enters through port a of the second solenoid reversing valve DC2, flows out through port b and enters port p of the first relief valve YL1, flows out through port t, and enters the oil suction chamber of hydraulic motor 1 through port B1 of the balancing valve group;

[0046] 3. During energy recovery, the oil in the pressure chamber of hydraulic motor 1 enters the balancing valve group through port A1, enters through port a of the first solenoid reversing valve DC1, and flows out through port b. A portion of the oil flows through the eighth stop valve JZ8 and then enters the external accumulator through port XQ of the balancing valve group. A portion of the oil flows through port p of YL3 (relief valve), flows out through port t, and flows out through port HY of the balancing valve group back to the external oil tank.

[0047] 4. When recovering energy to drive the hoisting mechanism, the oil enters from the first solenoid reversing valve DC1b port after passing through the eighth stop valve JZ8, flows out through port a, and enters the pressure chamber of hydraulic motor 1 from port A1 of the balancing valve group, driving the hydraulic motor 1 to operate in the forward hoisting direction. The oil discharged from hydraulic motor 1 flows in from port B1 of the balancing valve group, passes through the third stop valve JZ3, flows out from port B of the balancing valve group, enters the external main reversing valve group, and then returns to the oil tank.

[0048] In this embodiment, the oil drain flow direction of the hydraulic system is as follows:

[0049] 1. Hydraulic system oil leakage occurs regardless of winch lifting, lowering and releasing conditions;

[0050] 2. The oil drain of hydraulic motor 1 is discharged through port L1 of the hydraulic motor 1 housing;

[0051] 3. The oil leakage of the external brake is discharged through the L port of the balance valve group;

[0052] 4. All leaked oil is collected by pipelines outside the balancing valve group and then enters the external main pump station tank.

[0053] In the present invention, external oil enters the balancing valve assembly through port A. Port A connects to shuttle valve 5, which in turn connects to hydraulically controlled reversing valve 7, which in turn connects to fourth shut-off valve JZ4. Fourth shut-off valve JZ4 connects to fifth shut-off valve JZ5, which in turn connects to port SB of the balancing valve assembly, enabling emergency release of the hydraulic brake. Fourth shut-off valve JZ4 connects to balancing valve assembly SC, enabling normal hydraulic brake operation. Oil enters the balancing valve assembly through port A and connects to balancing valve 2, achieving dynamic braking of hydraulic motor 1 from dynamic to static and maintaining static pressure. Balancing valve 2 is connected to the second relief valve YL2 to achieve impact filtering and maximum pressure limitation.

Balancing valve 2 is connected to hydraulic motor 1's A1 port to achieve forward rotation (winch) operation of hydraulic motor 1.

[0054] The oil of the external accumulator enters the balancing valve group from the XQ port of the balancing valve group. On the one hand, the XQ port is connected to the eighth stop valve JZ8, and the eighth stop valve JZ8 is connected to the seventh stop valve JZ7 to release the accumulator oil; the eighth stop valve JZ8 is connected to the pressure sensor 8 (PT) to realize the pressure monitoring of the accumulator and the hydraulic motor 1A1 port; the eighth stop valve JZ8 is connected to the third overflow valve YL3 to realize the maximum pressure limit of the accumulator; the eighth stop valve JZ8 is connected to the first electromagnetic reversing valve DC1 to realize the filling and release of the hydraulic oil between the external accumulator and the hydraulic motor 1; the eighth stop valve JZ8 is connected to the sixth stop valve JZ6 to realize the filling of the accumulator.

The pilot filter 3 is connected to the second throttle orifice JL2 of the balancing valve 2, ensuring smooth opening of the balancing valve 2.

This allows for safe, adjustable speed communication between the A1 and B1 ports of the hydraulic motor 1 in an emergency, enabling an adjustable speed freewheeling state for the hydraulic motor 1 and manual release. The third shut-off valve JZ3 is connected to the B1 port of the hydraulic motor 1, enabling reverse (lowering) operation of the hydraulic motor 1.
