Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of post-valve compensation principles, and in particular to a post-valve compensation system with pressure division and pressure limiting functions. Background Art
[0002] In current systems using the post-valve compensation principle, the pressure differential ΔP across the main valve core in each section decreases as the number of sections increases due to pressure losses in the oil channel. According to the flow formula, with the same spool opening, the output flow rate per section will also decrease as the pressure differential ΔP decreases.
[0003] Furthermore, due to the structural limitations of the post-valve compensation working section, removing signal oil from a single working port is difficult. To add low-flow pressure limiting functionality to the existing structure, most often a single working port direct unloading or overflow mechanism is employed, draining the oil directly from the working port to the return channel T. This direct discharge solution results in significant energy loss and is not conducive to future development.
[0004] In summary, the present invention solves the existing problems by designing a post-valve compensation system with pressure division and pressure limiting functions. Summary of the Invention

The hydraulically controlled one-way valve is connected to the oil inlet of the main valve core, the hydraulic control port of the hydraulic one-way valve is connected to the working port of the hydraulically controlled directional valve, and the forced closing of the hydraulically controlled one-way valve is controlled by the hydraulically controlled directional valve. The main valve core is connected to the hydraulic one-way valve, the compensation valve core, the one-way valve, the A / B working oil port and the return oil channel T, and is responsible for controlling the oil inlet and return of the A / B working port.

[0024] Implementation Cases
[0025] Based on the existing principle and structure of an electro-hydraulic proportional valve, a mechanical structure comprising multiple components is added. This mechanical structure includes: a hydraulically controlled check valve, a two-position, three-way, externally controlled, internally leaking hydraulically controlled directional control valve, two pressure-limiting signal generators, and multiple dampers. The hydraulically controlled check valve is used to control the on / off state of the main valve core's oil inlet channel. The control oil of the hydraulically controlled check valve is controlled by the two-position, three-way valve. High-pressure oil from port P enters the control chamber of the hydraulically controlled check valve after passing through the two-position, three-way, externally controlled, internally leaking hydraulically controlled directional control valve, pushing the hydraulically controlled directional control valve core to achieve reversal and limiting the flow of the main valve core's oil inlet channel. The two-position, three-way, externally controlled, internally leaking hydraulically controlled directional control valve controls the control chamber of the hydraulically controlled check valve to a high-pressure or unloaded state. Its control oil can come from any of the pressure-limiting signal generators, and the signal oil from the pressure-limiting signal generator pushes the two-position, three-way valve to reverse direction. The pressure-limiting signal generator can use a variety of modules with different structures, including but not limited to plugs, relief valves, solenoid valves, logic valves, and sequence valves. Because each oil port corresponds to a single pressure-limiting signal generator, two different pressure-limiting modules can be configured differently. The pressure-limiting signal generator can be controlled by various signals, including working port pressure, electrical signals, and mechanical signals, to deliver signal oil. This signal oil shifts the two-position, three-way valve, providing damping for flow limitation and stabilization.
[0026] Specific reference Figure 1 This patented working section can be used in conjunction with standard head and tail sections, replacing or intermixing standard working sections. Building on the principle of a standard post-valve compensation working section, this section incorporates a mechanical structure comprising multiple components. In this section, a hydraulically controlled check valve 3 controls the oil inlet of the main valve core 4. The hydraulic control port is connected to the working port of the hydraulically controlled reversing valve 1, which controls the forced closure of the hydraulically controlled check valve. The main valve core 4 connects the hydraulically controlled check valve 3, the compensation valve core 6, the check valve 5, the A / B working oil ports, and the return oil channel T, controlling the oil inlet and return of the A / B working ports. The compensation valve core 6 connects to the LS oil channel, the main valve core 4, and the check valve 5, responsible for transmitting maximum pressure and consuming excess pressure. The check valve 5 connects the compensation valve core 6 and the main valve core 4 to prevent backflow of working port pressure and protect the pump. Damping element 2 9 and damping element 3 10 connect the working port to pressure-limiting signal generators 7 and 8, respectively, providing damping. Pressure-limiting signal generators 1 (7) and 2 (8) are interchangeable modules, allowing for flexible use. You can choose between identical or different modules for a variety of configurations. They are connected to dampers 2 (9) and 3 (10), respectively, which connect to hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 and damper 1 (2), supplying signal oil to the valve. Damper 2 (2) is connected to the T-channel for unloading. Hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 is connected to pressure-limiting signal generators 1 (7) and 2 (8), controlling hydraulically controlled check valve 3.
[0027] Working process: When used as a conventional post-valve compensation principle, the main valve core 4 changes direction, and the oil in the P oil channel passes through the hydraulically controlled one-way valve 3, the main valve core 4, the compensation valve core 6, the one-way valve 5, and enters the working port A / B. The single action and compound action principles are no different from the general post-valve compensation principles; by adjusting the spring force of the hydraulically controlled one-way valve 3, the pressure difference before and after the main valve core 4 can be adjusted, and the output flow of the working port can be changed without changing the opening of the main valve core 4.
[0028] When the low-flow pressure-limiting function is activated, meaning the pressure-limiting signal generator begins operating, signal oil flows from the damper through the signal generator, pushing hydraulically controlled directional valve 1. This causes hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 to shift direction, and high pressure flows from hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 into hydraulically controlled check valve 3. This forces throttling of hydraulically controlled check valve 3, reducing the amount of oil entering the working link at port P, allowing only a small amount to pass. This oil then returns to port T via damper-2. The small amount of oil allowed to pass serves to maintain continuous reversal of hydraulically controlled directional valve 1. When the pressure-limiting signal generator stops supplying signal oil, the oil in the control chamber of hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 is unloaded from damper-2, causing hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 to reset, and the check valve in hydraulically controlled check valve 3 to resume normal operation. When this link is operating in conjunction with other links, the presence of hydraulically controlled directional valve 1 ensures that hydraulically controlled check valve 3 remains closed regardless of whether the working link is at its maximum operating pressure, enhancing the reliability of the mechanism.
[0029] The hydraulically controlled one-way valve 3 can replace the one-way valve 5 to a certain extent. If necessary, only the hydraulically controlled one-way valve 3 can be used and the one-way valve 5 can be discarded.
[0030] This technology is applied to the principle of post-valve compensation. (A post-valve compensation system (Flow Sharing System) refers to a pressure compensation valve arranged between the main valve and the actuator. During operation, the pressure oil first passes through the orifice on the main valve and then through the compensator. Therefore, the inlet pressure of the main valve core is the system working pressure, that is, the pressure PP at the P port, while the outlet pressure of the main valve core is the maximum load pressure, that is, the pressure PLs at the Ls port. △P is controlled by a three-way flow valve and can be understood as a fixed value, that is, △P = PP - PLs is a fixed value. According to the flow formula:
[0031]
[0032] Where: αd is the flow coefficient, generally set at 0.6-0.7; Q is the flow rate; A is the valve core opening area; ΔP is the pressure differential across the main valve core; and ρ is the medium density. By controlling the main valve core opening area A, the output flow rate Q can be varied. This patent utilizes a mechanical structure that partially shares the pressure differential across the main valve core, thereby precisely controlling the pressure differential across the main valve core and achieving more precise flow control. It also enables the use of low-flow pressure limiting under certain conditions, making the entire system more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient.
[0033] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
