When it works in the right position, the oil circuit between its A port and its P port is connected, and its B port is cut off.

[0038] In the present invention, the A port and the B port of the first reversing valve are connected to the A port and the B port of the hydraulic winch motor respectively, and at the same time, the oil inlet port of the sequence valve is connected to the rod chamber oil port of the tensioning oil cylinder and the control port of the first reversing valve respectively, and the accumulator is connected to the rod chamber oil port of the tensioning oil cylinder. In this way, after the pressure in the rod chamber of the tensioning oil cylinder rises to the set pressure, the sequence valve will automatically open, and then the oil stored in the accumulator can be used to push the first reversing valve to change direction. At the same time, the oil stored in the accumulator will also push the second reversing valve to change direction through the second shuttle valve, so that the hydraulic winch motor can release the tension. Compared with the prior art, the device uses the system's own pressure to automatically control the tension release process, which can ensure the timely release of the tension, thereby avoiding the problem that the high tension cannot be released in time through the sensor feedback method, and avoiding the situation that the tension cannot be released in time and causes equipment damage, thereby improving the reliability and safety of the equipment.

[0039] Working principle: When the external pressure is higher than the set pressure of the sequence valve 13, the oil pressure on the oil inlet side of the sequence valve 13 increases, the sequence valve 13 opens, and a part of the oil stored in the accumulator 16 reaches the control port of the first reversing valve 9 through the sequence valve 13, thereby making the first reversing valve 9 work in the lower position, and the oil circuit between its A port and B port is connected, so that the A port and B port of the hydraulic winch motor 4 are connected to each other. At the same time, a part of the oil stored in the accumulator 16 reaches the right comparative oil port of the second shuttle valve 12 through the sequence valve 13, and the pressure is relatively high. At the same time, since the A port and B port of the hydraulic winch motor 4 are connected to each other, the pressures of the two comparative oil ports of the first shuttle valve 12 are basically equal, and the The pressure from the output port of the first shuttle valve 12 to the left comparative oil port of the second shuttle valve 12 is relatively low, and the output oil port of the second shuttle valve 12 outputs oil of a certain pressure to the B port of the second reversing valve 10, and then acts on the control port of the second reversing valve 10 at the same time, so that the second reversing valve 10 is reversed and works in the left position. In this way, the oil output from the output oil port of the second shuttle valve 12 enters the brake 3, the brake 3 is started, and the hydraulic winch motor 4 releases the tension. During the tension release process, the oil stored in the accumulator 16 is supplied to the oil inlet of the first oil replenishing valve 14 and the oil inlet of the second oil replenishing valve 15 through the sequence valve 13, and then replenishes oil to the low-pressure side to prevent the system from being sucked in during the tension release process. When the external pressure is less than the set pressure of the sequence valve 13, the sequence valve 13 is closed, the first reversing valve 9 is reversed, and the oil circuit between its A port and B port is disconnected. At this time, the pressures of the two comparative oil ports of the first shuttle valve 11 are almost equal, and the pressures of the two comparative oil ports of the second shuttle valve 12 are almost equal, and its output oil port hardly outputs pressure. The second reversing valve 10 works in the right position under the action of the brake 3, and the brake 3 brakes the hydraulic winch motor 4.
