Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydraulic technology, and in particular to a hydraulic system and a working machine. Background Technology
[0002] With the current trends of electrification and intelligentization, energy saving and fuel consumption reduction have become major research hotspots, and the effective utilization rate of energy has become one of the important indicators for evaluating the advancement of operating machinery. The existing boom potential energy recovery of operating machinery mainly involves recovering the high-pressure oil in the boom from the rodless chamber to the rod chamber, which has a low recovery rate.
[0003] Taking an excavator as an example, it achieves digging and unloading through single or combined actions of the boom, stick, bucket, and swing. The operator operates a pilot handle in the cab to switch the main valve spool, pumping out high-pressure oil to supply various working devices, while simultaneously returning oil from the working devices to the oil tank. Because the excavator's boom and working devices are very heavy, there is a problem of recovering gravitational potential energy during descent. The traditional method is to regenerate high-pressure oil from the rodless chamber to the rod chamber through the boom control valve spool. The area ratio of the rodless chamber to the rod chamber is approximately 2:1. Therefore, during boom descent, even if all the flow in the rodless chamber is regenerated, about 50% of the flow cannot be regenerated and is discharged to the oil tank, causing some potential energy to be converted into heat energy, resulting in waste.

[0049] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 4 The hydraulic system described in the embodiments of the present invention, wherein, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the hydraulic connection structure of a hydraulic system provided by the present invention; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first control valve 3 in the first working position 11 of a hydraulic system provided by the present invention; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first control valve 3 in the second working position 13 in a hydraulic system provided by the present invention; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first control valve 3 in the third working position 14 in a hydraulic system provided by the present invention; Figure 2 and Figure 4 The curved arrows in the diagram indicate the direction of hydraulic oil flow.
[0050] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a hydraulic system includes: a cylinder 5, a first control valve 3, a pressure supply device, a main oil circuit 20, and an oil tank. The oil inlet of the pressure supply device is connected to the oil tank, and the oil outlet of the pressure supply device is connected to the first control valve 3. When the pressure supply device is running, it can supply hydraulic oil to the first control valve 3. The first control valve 3 is connected to the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5, the oil tank, and the main oil circuit 20, and has a first working position. When the cylinder 5 retracts, the first control valve 3 is placed in the first working position, and the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 flows back to the main oil circuit 20 through the first control valve 3.
[0051] In the above scheme, the hydraulic cylinder 5 can be installed on, for example, the boom of an excavator. The retraction process of the hydraulic cylinder 5 is the boom retraction process. During this process, the boom moves from a high position to a low position, and the potential energy of the boom can be converted into the kinetic energy of the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 through the piston movement of the hydraulic cylinder 5. This kinetic energy can be supplied to the main oil circuit 20 when the first control valve 3 is in the first working position, realizing potential energy recovery and effectively reducing energy waste. It can be understood that the main oil circuit 20 is connected to other working devices in the operating machinery, and the potential energy recovered by the hydraulic cylinder 5 can provide kinetic energy for the operation of other working devices. It is worth noting that during the potential energy recovery process of the hydraulic cylinder 5, oil can also be supplied to other working devices through the pressure supply device. During use, the working pressure of the pressure supply device can be used to determine whether regeneration is needed, or the pressure supply device can be operated based on the return pressure, and the working pressure of the pressure supply device can be adjusted.
[0052] According to an embodiment of the hydraulic system of the present invention, the first operating position includes a full operating position 11 and a half operating position 12.
[0053] When the first control valve 3 is in the full operating position 11, the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 is connected to the main oil circuit 20 through the first control valve 3, and the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 is disconnected from the oil tank. The hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 flows back to the main oil circuit 20 through the first control valve 3. This process is to recover all the potential energy of the boom, so as to maximize the recovery and utilization of energy. The "complete recovery" mentioned here refers to the complete recovery under the premise of eliminating unavoidable energy loss. Moreover, the maximization of recovery and utilization is only the maximization compared to the partial return and non-return of hydraulic oil. The energy loss caused by the conversion of other forms of energy also needs to be considered.
[0054] When the first control valve 3 is in the semi-operating position 12, the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 is connected to the main oil circuit 20 and the oil tank through the first control valve 3. The hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 flows back to the main oil circuit 20 and the oil tank through the first control valve 3. During this process, the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 partially flows back to the oil tank and partially flows back to the main oil circuit 20 through the first control valve 3. The ratio of the two flows can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual use situation, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0055] In the above scheme, the hydraulic oil recovery method of cylinder 5 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage needs, making it more flexible and applicable.
[0056] According to an embodiment of the hydraulic system of the present invention, the first control valve 3 further has a second working position 13 and a third working position 14. Wherein:
[0057] When the cylinder 5 is in the same position, the first control valve 3 is in the second working position 13. The rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 is simultaneously disconnected from the pressure supply device, the main oil circuit 20 and the oil tank. The hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 cannot flow back to the main oil circuit 20 or the oil tank through the first control valve 3, and the hydraulic oil supplied by the pressure supply device cannot be supplied to the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 through the first control valve 3, thus achieving the sealing of the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51, and the cylinder 5 is held in a fixed position.
[0058] When cylinder 5 extends, the first control valve 3 is placed in the third working position 14. The rodless chamber 51 of cylinder 5 is connected to the pressure supply device and disconnected from the oil tank. The pressure supply device supplies oil to the rodless chamber 51 of cylinder 5 through the first control valve 3, providing power for the extension of cylinder 5. It can be understood that during the extension of cylinder 5, the pressure supply device can also simultaneously supply hydraulic oil to other working devices through the main oil circuit 20.
[0059] In this embodiment of the invention, the first control valve 3 can switch between the first working position, the second working position 13 and the third working position 14 to realize the action control of the extension and holding of the hydraulic cylinder 5, as well as the backflow control of the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the hydraulic cylinder 5.
[0060] The structure of the first control valve 3 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below:
[0061] According to an embodiment of the hydraulic system of the present invention, the first control valve 3 includes a valve body and a valve core.
[0062] The valve body is provided with a valve cavity, and the valve body is provided with a first valve port, a second valve port and a third valve port that are respectively connected to the valve cavity. The first valve port is connected to the oil tank, the second valve port is connected to the pressure supply device and the main oil circuit 20, and the third valve port is connected to the rodless cavity 51 of the oil cylinder 5.
[0063] The valve core is slidably disposed in the valve cavity. The valve core is provided with a first check valve 31 and a second check valve 30. The outlet of the first check valve 31 is connected to the outlet of the second check valve 30.
[0064] When the first control valve 3 is in the first working position, it has the following two states:
[0065] One state is that the first control valve 3 is in the fully operating position 11. At this time, the third valve port is connected to the second valve port through the first check valve 31 or the second check valve 30. Figure 1 As shown, the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 can be returned to the main oil circuit 20 through the first check valve 31 or the second check valve 30 (connected to the second valve port via the first check valve 31).
[0066] Another state is that the first control valve 3 is in the half-operation position 12. At this time, the third valve port is connected to the second valve port through the first check valve 31 or the second check valve 30. Figure 1 The diagram shows a connection between the first check valve 31 and the second valve port, and also a connection between the first valve port and the second valve port.
[0067] Optionally, when the first control valve 3 is in the second working position 13, the third valve port is disconnected from the first valve port and the second valve port respectively, the pressure supply device stops supplying hydraulic oil to the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5, and the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 cannot flow into the oil tank or the main oil circuit 20.
[0068] When the first control valve 3 is in the third working position 14, the first valve port is connected to the inlet of the first check valve 31, the second valve port is connected to the outlet of the first check valve 31, and the third valve port is connected to the outlets of the first check valve 31 and the second check valve 30. The hydraulic oil supplied by the pressure supply device flows into the first control valve 3 through the second valve port, and after passing through the second check valve 30, flows into the rodless chamber 51 of the cylinder 5 through the third valve port of the first control valve 3.
[0069] According to an embodiment of the hydraulic system of the present invention, the inner wall of the valve cavity of the valve body is provided with a first annular groove 18, a second annular groove 4 and a third annular groove 19. The first annular groove 18 is connected to the first valve port, the second annular groove 4 is connected to the second valve port, and the third annular groove 19 is connected to the third valve port. The inner side of the valve core is provided with a first mounting cavity, a continuous channel 32 and a second mounting cavity connected in sequence. The side wall of the valve core is provided with a first through hole 25 connected to the first mounting cavity, a second through hole 24 connected to the continuous channel 32 and a third through hole 28 connected to the second mounting cavity. A first check valve 31 is provided in the first mounting cavity and a second check valve 30 is provided in the second mounting cavity. The first check valve 31 and the second check valve 30 are arranged facing each other.
[0070] In the above scheme, the first check valve 31 forms a one-way hydraulic channel between the first mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32, and the second check valve 30 forms a one-way hydraulic channel between the second mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32. The one-way conduction principle of the first check valve 31 and the second check valve 30 is described below:
[0071] The guide tip of the first check valve 31 abuts against the connection position between the first mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32 under the action of a spring. The first inlet pipe 34 of the first check valve 31 extends into the continuous channel 32. When high-pressure oil is introduced into the continuous channel 32, the hydraulic oil in the continuous channel 32 enters the first spring cavity 27 of the first check valve 31 through the first inlet pipe 34. At this time, since the diameter da of the guide tip of the first check valve 31 is smaller than the diameter Da of the first spring cavity 27, the hydraulic pressure on the guide tip of the first check valve 31 towards the first spring cavity 27 is less than the hydraulic pressure on the guide tip of the first check valve 31 towards the continuous channel 32. Therefore, the first check valve 31 remains in the state where the guide tip abuts against the connection position between the first mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32, and the hydraulic oil in the continuous channel 32 cannot flow into the first spring cavity 27. Inside the mounting cavity; when high-pressure oil is introduced into the first mounting cavity, the high-pressure oil acts on the outer annular groove of the guide front end of the first check valve 31. Since the area of the side wall of the outer annular groove near the first spring cavity 27 is larger than the area of the side wall near the continuous channel 32, the guide front end of the first check valve 31 bears the hydraulic resultant force toward the first spring cavity 27. If the hydraulic resultant force is greater than the spring force of the first check valve 31, it can push the guide front end of the first check valve 31 to move away from the continuous channel 32, so that the first mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32 are connected, and the hydraulic oil in the first mounting cavity can flow into the continuous channel 32.
[0072] The guide tip of the second check valve 30 abuts against the connection position between the second mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32 under the action of a spring. The second inlet pipe 33 of the second check valve 30 extends into the continuous channel 32. When high-pressure oil is introduced into the continuous channel 32, the hydraulic oil in the continuous channel 32 enters the second spring cavity 29 of the second check valve 30 through the second inlet pipe 33. At this time, since the diameter db of the guide tip of the second check valve 30 is smaller than the diameter Db of the second spring cavity 29 of the second check valve 30, the hydraulic pressure on the guide tip of the second check valve 30 towards the second spring cavity 29 is less than the hydraulic pressure on the guide tip of the second check valve 30 towards the continuous channel 32. Therefore, the second check valve 30 remains in the state where the guide tip abuts against the connection position between the second mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32, and the hydraulic oil in the continuous channel 32 cannot flow into the second spring cavity 29. Inside the mounting cavity; when high-pressure oil is introduced into the second mounting cavity, the high-pressure oil acts on the outer annular groove of the guide front end of the second check valve 30. Since the area of the side wall of the outer annular groove near the second spring cavity 29 is larger than the area of the side wall near the continuous channel 32, the guide front end of the second check valve 30 bears the hydraulic resultant force toward the second spring cavity 29. If the hydraulic resultant force is greater than the spring force of the second check valve 30, it can push the guide front end of the second check valve 30 to move away from the continuous channel 32, so that the second mounting cavity and the continuous channel 32 are connected, and the hydraulic oil in the second mounting cavity can flow into the continuous channel 32.
[0073] Based on the above scheme, it can be understood that since the first through hole 25 is connected to the first mounting cavity, the second through hole 24 is connected to the continuous channel 32, and the third through hole 28 is connected to the second mounting cavity, controlling the hydraulic oil flow state of the first through hole 25, the second through hole 24, and the third through hole 28 can control the opening and closing states of the first check valve 31 and the second check valve 30, thereby controlling the flow direction of the hydraulic oil. The hydraulic oil flow state of the first through hole 25, the second through hole 24, and the third through hole 28 can be controlled by moving the valve core within the valve cavity of the valve body.
[0074] Specifically, by applying the first signal pressure 21 to the left end of the valve core or applying the second signal pressure 22 to the right end of the valve core, the valve core can be moved along the valve cavity. For example... Figure 2 As shown, when the first through hole 25 is connected to the second annular groove 4 and the second through hole 24 is connected to the third annular groove 19, the first control valve 3 is in the full operating position 11. The hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 can enter the first mounting chamber through the first through hole 25, and reach the continuous channel 32 through the first check valve 31, and then flow back to the main oil circuit 20 through the third through hole 28 and the third annular groove 19. When the first through hole 25 is connected to both the first annular groove 18 and the second annular groove 4, and the third through hole 28 is connected to the third annular groove 19, the first control valve 3 is in the half operating position 12. Part of the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 can enter the first annular groove 18 through the first through hole 25 and flow back to the oil tank. Another part of the hydraulic oil in the rodless chamber 51 can enter the first mounting chamber through the first through hole 25, and reach the continuous channel 32 through the first check valve 31, and then flow back to the main oil circuit 20 through the third through hole 28 and the third annular groove 19. Figure 3 As shown, when the first through hole 25 is displaced from the second annular groove 4, and the second through hole 24 is located between the second annular groove 4 and the third annular groove 19, and is simultaneously displaced from both the second annular groove 4 and the third annular groove 19, the first control valve 3 is placed in the second working position 13, and the position of the oil cylinder 5 is maintained; as Figure 4 As shown, when the second through hole 24 is connected to the second annular groove 4 and the third through hole 28 is connected to the third annular groove 19, the first control valve 3 is placed in the third working position 14. The hydraulic oil of the pressure supply device can enter the second mounting cavity through the third annular groove 19, and enter the continuous channel 32 through the second check valve 30, and then be supplied to the rodless cavity 51 of the oil cylinder 5 through the second through hole 24 and the second annular groove 4.
[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, the hydraulic system further includes a second control valve 7.
