Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydraulic systems for mining dump trucks, and in particular to a hydraulic system for a pure electric mining dump truck. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the main types of underground mining dump trucks used in China are diesel underground dump trucks, overhead line underground dump trucks, and lithium-ion battery underground dump trucks. Among them, diesel underground dump trucks account for about 90%. The hydraulic system of diesel underground dump trucks requires the diesel engine to be constantly running to drive the oil pump. In addition, underground mines require high costs to manage the mine ventilation volume, which leads to energy waste, high noise, and serious pollution, which is inconsistent with the requirements of energy conservation and consumption reduction in mines.

[0003] The 20-ton pure electric mining dump truck is designed for the working environment of large underground mines. Its main features are zero emissions, low noise, and energy saving. The vehicle's power is replaced by a power battery instead of the original diesel engine. The vehicle is equipped with several parts, including a transmission system, a running system, a hydraulic (pneumatic) system, a power system, and an electrical system. The hydraulic system mainly consists of three major systems: a steering system, a braking system, and a lifting system. A dedicated hydraulic system needs to be designed to meet the requirements of the electric mining dump truck. Summary of the Invention

[0043] The specific working principle of the present invention will be explained below: 1. Working principle of braking module 6.

[0044] The hydraulic braking module 6 mainly includes several working states such as turning off the motor, turning on the motor, applying the parking brake, releasing the parking brake, and applying the working brake.

[0045] (1) Motor off state: The pure electric mining dump truck uses hydraulic braking, with brakes 16 in three positions: front, middle, and rear. Brakes 16 are wet spring brakes. When the motor is off, the single-channel filling valve 5 cuts off the pressure oil inside the accumulator 13, ensuring that the pressure oil inside the wet spring brake 16 flows back to the oil tank 1 from the parking valve 14, thus maintaining the vehicle in the parking brake state. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the braking module 6 when the motor is off.

[0046] (2) Motor on-state: When the motor is turned on, hydraulic oil flows from the oil tank 1 into the single-way filling valve 5. The oil pressure causes the internal reversing valve to switch the oil circuit interface, allowing hydraulic oil to enter the accumulator 13. When the pressure reaches 12.5 MPa, the hydraulic oil flows back to the oil tank 1 from the T port of the single-way filling valve 5 to release pressure, ensuring the stability of the internal pressure value of the hydraulic system. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the braking module 6 when the motor is on.

[0047] (3) Run the motor to release the parking brake: When the motor is turned on, hydraulic oil flows from the oil tank 1 into the single-way filling valve 5. The oil pressure causes the internal reversing valve to switch the oil circuit interface, allowing hydraulic oil to enter the accumulator 13. When the pressure reaches 12.5 MPa, the hydraulic oil flows back to the oil tank 11 from the T port of the single-way filling valve 54 to release pressure and ensure the stability of the internal pressure value of the system. Pulling down the parking valve 14 handle connects the hydraulic oil in the accumulator 13 and the hydraulic oil in the brake 16, releasing the brakes under the action of the hydraulic oil. Figure 3 Schematic diagram of braking module 6, which activates the motor to relieve the parking brake.

[0048] (4) Run the motor and apply the working brake: When the motor is turned on and the operator depresses the foot pedal, the pedal valve 15 blocks the oil pipe connection between the accumulator 13 and the brake 16, causing the hydraulic oil inside the brake 16 to flow back into the oil tank 1 through the pedal valve 15, thus locking the brake 16 and achieving the braking effect. Figure 4 The schematic diagram of braking module 6 when the motor is turned on and the working brake is applied.

[0049] (5) Run the motor and apply the parking brake: When the motor is turned on and the operator pulls the parking lever, the parking valve 14 blocks the oil pipe between the brake 16 and the accumulator 13, causing the hydraulic oil inside the brake 16 to flow back into the oil tank 1 through the parking valve 14, thus locking the brake 16 and providing parking braking. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram showing the principle of applying the parking brake to turn on the motor.

[0050] 2. Working principle of steering module 7.

[0051] The chassis of the pure electric mining dump truck is designed with hydraulic power steering. The steering module 7 realizes the control of the vehicle's driving direction. The steering of the pure electric mining dump truck is driven by an electric motor, which mainly includes four working states: motor off, motor on, left turn, and right turn.

[0052] (1) Motor off: Under this condition, motor 2 is in the off state, there is no hydraulic oil inside the hydraulic steering module 7, the pressure oil inside steering valve 19 and steering cylinder 20 is in a static state, steering valve 19 is in the neutral position, and the oil circuit circulation between electric pump 2, oil tank 1 and steering cylinder 20 is cut off. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the hydraulic steering principle when the motor is off.

[0053] (2) The motor is on, but there is no direction of rotation: After the motor rotates, the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil tank 1 flows to the single-way filling valve 5 through the motor pump. Under the action of the hydraulic oil, the two sets of reversing valves inside the single-way filling valve 5 switch simultaneously, storing energy in the accumulator 13 inside the brake. After 2 seconds, the oil flows out through the P port of the lower single-way filling valve 5, and the entire hydraulic steering module 7 has an oil circuit circulation. Figure 7 The schematic diagram for activating the hydraulic steering module 7 for the motor.

[0054] (3) Start the motor and turn left: When the steering wheel is turned to the left, the inlet and outlet ports of the steering valve 19 switch to the right position. Hydraulic oil from the electric pump 2 flows into the steering valve 19 through the single-way filling valve 5. The steering valve 19 then distributes the hydraulic oil to the left and right steering cylinders, thus realizing the vehicle's steering function. Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the hydraulic steering module 7 in the left-turn state with the motor turned on.

[0055] (4) Start the motor and turn right: When the steering wheel is turned to the right, the inlet and outlet ports of the steering valve 19 switch to the left position. Hydraulic oil from the electric pump 2 flows through the single-way filling valve 5 into the steering valve 19, which then distributes the hydraulic oil to the left and right steering cylinders, thus realizing the vehicle's steering function. Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the hydraulic steering mechanism when the motor is on and the steering wheel is in right-turn mode.

[0056] 3. Working principle of lifting module 8.

[0057] The power source of the lifting module 8 of the pure electric mining dump truck mainly relies on the main motor of the dump truck to drive the power take-off 22, thereby controlling the rotation of the lifting pump 21. The lifting pump 21 is a gear pump. When lifting is required, the lifting control handle is moved to the lifting position. The hydraulic oil from the lifting pump 21 enters the rodless chamber of the lifting cylinder 24 through the lifting valve 23, pushing the piston rod and thus pushing the cargo box upward to achieve lifting. The system control mainly relies on the pneumatic control unit to change the position of the inlet and outlet of the lifting valve 23, thereby controlling the flow of hydraulic oil to achieve functions such as lifting, holding, and power lowering.

[0058] (1) The main motor of the dump truck is turned off: In this state, the pneumatic control valve 27 is in the off position, the power take-off 22 is not engaged, the lifting pump 21 is not working, and there is no hydraulic oil flowing in the lifting module 8. At this time, both the pneumatic control valve 27 and the lifting valve 23 are in the intermediate stop position, and the lifting cylinder 24 is in the lowest position. Figure 10 Hydraulic schematic diagram for shutting down the lifting system for the motor.

[0059] (2) The main motor of the dump truck is turned on, and the lifting pump 21 starts operating: When the truck bed needs to be lifted, the power take-off (PTO) 22 and the lifting pump 21 are first connected. Specifically, the pneumatic control valve 27 is energized, the valve core of the switching valve 31 moves to the left, connecting the control air circuit of the PTO 22, and connecting the PTO 22 with the shaft of the lifting pump 21. The power is then transmitted to the lifting pump 21 through the dump truck's main motor, causing the lifting pump 21 to rotate at high speed and generate high-pressure oil. At this time, the lifting valve 23 is in the neutral position, so the high-pressure oil flows back to the oil tank 1 through the oil passage inside the lifting valve 23 and is filtered by the return oil filter. Figure 11 Hydraulic schematic diagram of lifting module 8 for motor activation.

[0060] (3) The main motor of the dump truck is turned on, the lifting pump 21 is running, and the cargo box is in the lifting state: When lifting the cargo box, turn the pneumatic control valve 27 to the lifting position to connect the system air pressure to the lifting channel of the pneumatic control valve 27. The system air pressure flows through the pneumatic control valve 27 and the limit valve 29, acting on the inside of the lifting valve 23 and driving the valve core to move. Hydraulic oil enters the lifting cylinder 24 through the lifting valve 23 and lifts the piston rod. If the oil pressure in the lifting module 8 is too high, the bypass relief valve 26 will open to prevent high oil pressure from damaging the lifting pump 21 and pipelines. Figure 12 The hydraulic schematic diagram of the lifting module 8 is shown when the motor is turned on and the lifting mode is activated.

[0061] (4) The main motor of the dump truck is turned on, the lifting pump 21 is running, and the cargo box remains in the same position: The hydraulic lifting module 8 can stop the movement of the lifting cylinder 24 at any time. By turning the pneumatic control valve 27 to the stop position, the compressed air acting on the lifting valve 23 will be discharged from the exhaust port of the pneumatic control valve 27. Then, the valve core of the lifting valve 23 will return to the middle position under the action of the spring, and the hydraulic oil in the lifting cylinder 24 will stop flowing in or out, and the lifting cylinder 24 will be in a stationary state. Figure 13 Hydraulic schematic diagram of lifting module 8 with motor on and in the holding state.

[0062] (5) The main motor of the dump truck is turned on, the lifting pump 21 is running, and the cargo box is in the limit position: When the cargo box rises to the set angle, the valve core of the limit valve 29 is triggered to move, cutting off the air passage between the air system and the lifting valve 23. Compressed air is discharged from the exhaust port of the limit valve 29, the valve core of the lifting valve 23 returns to the middle position, and the lifting cylinder 24 stops rising and remains in the maximum angle holding state. Figure 14 This is a hydraulic schematic diagram of the lifting system with the motor turned on and in the limit position.

[0063] (6) The main motor of the dump truck is turned on, the lifting pump 21 is running, and the cargo box is in the lowered state: When the cargo box is lowered, the pneumatic control valve 27 needs to be turned to the lowering position. The system air pressure enters the lifting valve 23 through the lowering interface of the pneumatic control valve 27, pushing the valve core to move and connecting the lifting cylinder 24 with the hydraulic oil port of the lifting valve 23. The high-pressure oil in the lifting cylinder 24 flows back to the oil tank 1 and is filtered through the return oil filter. Figure 15 This is a hydraulic schematic diagram of the lifting system in the lowering state with the motor turned on.

[0064] Using the above technical solution, the dump truck's battery powers the entire system. A separate motor is used to drive the electric pump 2, which drives the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 1 to the braking module 6 and the steering module 7 to achieve braking and steering functions. For the lifting module, the dump truck's main motor drives the lifting pump through a power take-off. This invention provides a hydraulic system specifically designed for electric mining dump trucks. Compared with the existing diesel engine-driven hydraulic system, it is more energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and has lower noise.

[0065] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications, combinations, and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
