Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to load sensitive multi-way valve, and particularly relates to a load sensitive multi-way valve with double-pump combined flow control and priority function. BACKGROUND
[0002] The slice multi-way valve is widely applied to the engineering machinery and other industries due to its compact structure, good processing technology and strong versatility. The valve rear compensation type load sensitive multi-way valve can also distribute the flow to each actuator in proportion when the main pump flow is less than the required flow of the hydraulic system composite action, and the coordination of each actuator is better compared with other systems. However, the excavator and other engineering machinery have multiple composite actions, and the maximum number of composite actions of the upper vehicle and the lower vehicle is five. When the flow is saturated, the small load flow is too small due to the shunt of the multiple actuator composite actions, and the speed is obviously reduced. In order to solve this problem, the series-parallel oil circuit is introduced to realize the priority, and the working link assembly with priority requirement is placed in front of the working link without priority requirement, so that the system flow is preferentially distributed to the working link with priority requirement. In this case, the oil entering the multi-way valve can only pass through one inlet, and the above-mentioned technology cannot realize the priority function when multiple priority functions are required and the oil is supplied from both sides of the main valve or double pumps.
[0003] The existing patent with the name of a valve group and multi-way valve for high-low pressure pump series-parallel work, the application number CN201811096001.5, is recorded as follows: the valve group includes a five-position six-way valve body, a back oil bridge body and a one-way valve bridge body fixedly arranged on the left and right sides of the five-position six-way valve body, wherein the first oil inlet P1 and the second oil inlet P2 return to the T1 port and the T2 port to unload when the valve rod is in the middle position; when the valve rod is forwardly reversed by one position, the first oil inlet P1 supplies oil to the actuator alone and the second oil inlet P2 returns to the T1 port to unload; when the valve rod is forwardly reversed by two positions, the second oil inlet P2 and the first oil inlet P1 supply oil to the actuator after the oil inlets are combined in the third oil inlet, which can adapt to the high-low pressure pump series-parallel work, and the double pumps are combined in the light load, and the single pump supplies oil in the heavy load; the technology can be used in the forging machine, the press machine, the injection molding machine or the truck-mounted crane, and is not suitable for the engineering machinery such as the excavator with high composite action requirement; moreover, the technology is only the traditional double-pump combined flow technology, and does not reflect the advantage of the flow priority distribution of the series-parallel mixed oil circuit in the multiple action composite.
