Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of construction machinery, specifically relating to an all-terrain tire crane and its suspension cylinder hydraulic system. Background Technology
[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, the rear suspension of an off-road tire crane is generally a hydraulic spring suspension, typically consisting of two suspension cylinders: a first suspension cylinder 1 and a second suspension cylinder 2. The rodless and rod-side chambers of the first and second suspension cylinders are connected in an X-shape and connected to the hydraulic oil tank 3 (i.e., the return oil tank) via oil circuits equipped with switching valves. When both the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 are energized, the oil in the suspension cylinders is connected to the hydraulic oil tank 3, and the rear suspension is in a flexible state. In this flexible state, the bumps during travel cause the hydraulic oil in the two suspension cylinders to be forced out of the hydraulic oil tank 3 and drawn into the cylinders by negative pressure.
[0003] However, the presence of air in the suspension cylinders initially reduces the elastic modulus of the hydraulic oil, impairing the performance of the oil spring suspension. This severely impacts both tire-loading and driving conditions of the crane. During tire-loading, air in the suspension cylinders causes the vehicle to tilt during load rotation, increasing the risk of rollover accidents. During driving, air in the suspension cylinders leads to poor rear axle damping, affecting ride comfort. Therefore, it is crucial to optimize and improve the suspension cylinder hydraulic system to facilitate cylinder venting and enhance vehicle performance. Summary of the Invention

[0017] Once the piston rod of the suspension cylinder assembly reaches its maximum extension position, the fourth and sixth switching valves are switched to disconnect the fourth and sixth connecting oil circuits, thus ending the venting of the suspension cylinder assembly.

[0057] The specific embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0058] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes a suspension cylinder hydraulic system and an all-terrain tire crane according to this application.
[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, in one specific embodiment, a novel suspension cylinder hydraulic system is disclosed, comprising:
[0060] The suspension cylinder assembly includes a first suspension cylinder 1 and a second suspension cylinder 2. The first suspension cylinder 1 is provided with a first rod-side port R1, a first rodless port P1, and a third rodless port P3 for venting oil and gas. The second suspension cylinder 2 is provided with a second rod-side port R2, a second rodless port P2, and a fourth rodless port P4 for venting oil and gas. The first rodless port P1 and the second rod-side port R2 are connected by a first connecting oil passage L1, and the first rod-side port R1 and the second rodless port P2 are connected by a second connecting oil passage L2.
[0061] Hydraulic oil tank 3 is connected to a first connecting oil passage L1 via a first connecting oil passage L01 equipped with a first switching valve Y1, and to a second connecting oil passage L2 via a second connecting oil passage L02 equipped with a second switching valve Y2; and
[0062] Introduce pressure oil source 4 and selectively replenish oil to the first connecting oil circuit L1 or the second connecting oil circuit L2.
[0063] As can be seen, the suspension cylinder hydraulic system of this application adds a third rodless chamber port P3 and a fourth rodless chamber port P4 for oil and gas discharge, as well as an external pressure oil source 4, to control the venting of the suspension cylinder in a timely manner, thereby improving the working performance of the oil spring suspension. The following will specifically explain how the venting of the rod and rodless chambers of each suspension cylinder in the suspension cylinder group is achieved by introducing the pressure oil source 4 and combining it with the on / off control of the switching valve. The optimized design of the hydraulic system of this application does not significantly increase the system complexity; the solution is simple and feasible, effectively achieving cylinder venting control with significant results.
[0064] In comparison, one of the main methods for venting suspension cylinders is to passively replenish oil and vent air by driving on bumpy roads; the other is to use auxiliary equipment to simulate bumpy roads, such as using a forklift to repeatedly lift the two rear axle tires of the machine to vent air. Both of these venting methods are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and ineffective.
[0065] Specifically, see Figure 2After adding the pressure oil source 4, a third connecting oil circuit L03 is connected between the pressure oil source 4 and the first connecting oil circuit L1. The third connecting oil circuit L03 is equipped with a third switching valve Y3. A fourth connecting oil circuit L04 is connected between the pressure oil source 4 and the second connecting oil circuit L2. The fourth connecting oil circuit L04 is equipped with a fourth switching valve Y4. In this way, by controlling the switching of the third switching valve Y3 and the fourth switching valve Y4, the third connecting oil circuit L03 and the fourth connecting oil circuit L04 can be controlled to be opened or closed, which facilitates selective control of the external hydraulic oil supplied to the specific rod chamber or rodless chamber of the suspension cylinder assembly. For example, when the third switching valve Y3 is energized, opening the third connecting oil circuit L03, hydraulic oil from the pressure oil source 4 is introduced into the first connecting oil circuit L1, thereby flowing to the rodless chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rod chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 for replenishment. The oil-gas mixture in the rodless chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rod chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 will be forced to exit through the third rodless chamber port P3. Similarly, when the fourth switching valve Y4 is energized, opening the fourth connecting oil circuit L04, hydraulic oil from the pressure oil source 4 is introduced into the second connecting oil circuit L2, thereby flowing to the rod chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rodless chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 for replenishment. The oil-gas mixture in the rod chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rodless chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 will be forced to exit through the fourth rodless chamber port P4.
[0066] To control the discharge of the oil-gas mixture from the third rodless chamber port P3 or the fourth rodless chamber port P4, in Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, a fifth connecting oil circuit L05 connects the third rodless chamber oil port P3 to the hydraulic oil tank 3, and a fifth switching valve Y5 is installed in the fifth connecting oil circuit L05. A sixth connecting oil circuit L06 connects the fourth rodless chamber oil port P4 to the hydraulic oil tank 3, and a sixth switching valve Y6 is installed in the sixth connecting oil circuit L06. Thus, by controlling the switching of the fifth switching valve Y5 and the sixth switching valve Y6, the oil-air mixture in the cylinder can be discharged into the hydraulic oil tank 3. Optionally, it can be discharged into the hydraulic oil tank 3 after passing through an oil filtration device.
[0067] The first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 constitute the rigidity / flexibility switching valve group of the suspension cylinder assembly. When both the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 are energized, the first connecting oil circuit L01 and the second connecting oil circuit L02 are both connected, linking the suspension cylinder to the hydraulic oil tank 3, thus placing the suspension cylinder assembly in a flexible state, allowing the piston rod and cylinder to slide relative to each other. When both the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 are de-energized, the first connecting oil circuit L01 and the second connecting oil circuit L02 are both cut off, isolating the suspension cylinder from the hydraulic oil tank 3, thus placing the suspension cylinder assembly in a rigid state, fixing the positions of the left and right pistons. When an exhaust action is required, connecting the introduced pressure oil source 4, the rigidity / flexibility switching valve group needs to be switched to the rigid state beforehand, i.e. Figure 2Both the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 in the system are in a de-energized state.
[0068] exist Figure 2 In this embodiment, the first switching valve Y1, the second switching valve Y2, the third switching valve Y3, the fourth switching valve Y4, the fifth switching valve Y5, and the sixth switching valve Y6 are all two-position, two-way solenoid switching valves. In this case, the suspension cylinder hydraulic system also includes an exhaust controller, configured as follows:
[0069] Control the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 to disconnect the first connecting oil circuit L01 and the second connecting oil circuit L02, so that the suspension cylinder assembly is in a suspended rigid state.
[0070] Control the third switching valve Y3 and the fifth switching valve Y5 to open the third connecting oil circuit L03 and the fifth connecting oil circuit L05, so that air is discharged from the rodless chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rod chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 through the third rodless chamber oil port P3.
[0071] Once the piston rod of the cylinder in the suspension cylinder assembly has reached its limit extension position, switch the control of the third switching valve Y3 and the fifth switching valve Y5 to disconnect the third connecting oil circuit L03 and the fifth connecting oil circuit L05.
[0072] Control the fourth switching valve Y4 and the sixth switching valve Y6 to open the fourth connecting oil circuit L04 and the sixth connecting oil circuit L06, so that air is discharged from the rod chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rodless chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 through the fourth rodless chamber oil port P4.
[0073] Once the piston rod of the suspension cylinder assembly reaches its maximum extension position, switch the control valves Y4 and Y6 to disconnect the fourth connecting oil circuit L04 and the sixth connecting oil circuit L06, thus ending the venting of the suspension cylinder assembly.
[0074] By combining the above control process of multiple electromagnetic switching valves, the air in the rod chamber and rodless chamber on both sides of the suspension cylinder assembly can be completely removed in sequence, thereby improving the safety of tire lifting conditions and enhancing driving comfort.
[0075] exist Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, with Figure 2 Similar, the difference lies in Figure 3 The suspension cylinder hydraulic system also includes:
[0076] External container (not shown in the diagram);
[0077] The first pressure testing hose 5 connects the third rodless chamber oil port P3 to the external container; and
[0078] The second pressure testing hose 6 connects the fourth rodless chamber oil port P4 to the external container.
[0079] Furthermore, the third rodless chamber oil port P3 and the first pressure measuring hose 5, and the fourth rodless chamber oil port P4 and the second pressure measuring hose 6 can be connected respectively through pressure measuring connectors 7.
[0080] Thus, with pressure testing connectors 7 and pressure testing hoses connected to the external ports P3 and P4 of the rodless chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the second suspension cylinder 2 respectively, and both the first and second switching valves Y1 and Y2 being de-energized, energizing the third switching valve Y3 allows the oil-gas mixture in port P3 of the first suspension cylinder 1 to be discharged through the first pressure testing hose 5. Energizing the fourth switching valve Y4 allows the oil-gas mixture in port P4 of the second suspension cylinder 2 to be discharged through the second pressure testing hose 6. The discharged oil-gas mixture needs to be discharged into a container, specifically an external container. After purging the air, the pressure testing hose can be removed.
[0081] exist Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, it is also related to Figure 2 Similar, the difference lies in Figure 4 The suspension cylinder hydraulic system includes a third directional valve Y3' and a fourth directional valve Y4'. The main valve inlet P on one side of the third directional valve Y3' and the fourth directional valve Y4' are both connected to the pressure oil source 4, and the main valve return port T is connected to the hydraulic oil tank 3. The other side of the third directional valve Y3' is provided with a first working port A1 connected to the first connecting oil circuit L1 and a second working port A2 connected to the third rodless chamber port P3. The other side of the fourth directional valve Y4' is provided with a third working port A3 connected to the second connecting oil circuit L2 and a fourth working port A4 connected to the fourth rodless chamber port P4.
[0082] in, Figure 4 The embodiment also involves local optimization of the hydraulic system, similarly introducing other pressurized oil sources to replenish the suspension cylinder and expel air from inside the cylinder. This is achieved by replacing the third directional valve Y3' and the fourth directional valve Y4'. Figure 2 The third switching valve Y3, the fourth switching valve Y4, the fifth switching valve Y5, and the sixth switching valve Y6 in the embodiment.
[0083] Similarly, when the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 are simultaneously de-energized, disconnecting the first connecting oil circuit L01 and the second connecting oil circuit L02, and making the suspension cylinder assembly in a suspended rigid state, the third directional valve Y3' is energized and switched to the left position in the figure. The main valve inlet P is connected to the first working oil port A1, and the hydraulic oil introduced from the pressure oil source 4 is supplied to the rodless chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rod chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 through the first connecting oil circuit L1. This drives the oil-gas mixture in the rodless chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rod chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 to be discharged through the third rodless chamber oil port P3, and then discharged to the hydraulic oil tank 3 through the second working oil port A2 of the third directional valve Y3' and the main valve return oil port T, completing the venting on one side. Similarly, when venting is required on the other side, the fourth directional valve Y4' is energized and switched to the left position shown in the figure. The main valve inlet P is connected to the first working port A3, and the hydraulic oil from the pressure oil source 4 is introduced to replenish the rod chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rodless chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 through the second connecting oil circuit L2. This drives the oil-gas mixture in the rod chamber of the first suspension cylinder 1 and the rodless chamber of the second suspension cylinder 2 to be discharged through the fourth rodless chamber port P4, and then discharged to the hydraulic oil tank 3 through the fourth working port A4 of the fourth directional valve Y4' and the main valve return port T, thus completing the venting on the other side.
[0084] exist Figure 4 In this design, the first switching valve Y1 and the second switching valve Y2 can be simple two-position two-way valves, and the third reversing valve Y3' and the fourth reversing valve Y4' can be two-position four-way valves. The valve bodies are simple and practical. However, it should be noted that each switching valve can also be a more complex multi-position multi-way valve. This application is not limited to this.
[0085] The requirement emphasizes that in the suspension cylinder hydraulic system of this application, the suspension cylinder should be in a rigid state when venting; otherwise, the introduced hydraulic oil will flow directly into the hydraulic oil tank 3, affecting the venting effect. Furthermore, the hydraulic oil introduced into the pressure source 4 should be low-pressure oil with a low pressure; otherwise, it will lead to excessive rigidity of the suspension cylinder assembly, affecting driving comfort. Of course, it would be more convenient if the pressure source 4 came from the machine's own hydraulic system.
[0086] In addition, this application also discloses an off-road tire crane that includes the aforementioned suspension cylinder hydraulic system, thereby improving the safety of tire lifting operations and enhancing driving comfort.
[0087] Off-road tire cranes are non-highway vehicles primarily used in deserts, oil fields, mines, and ports. They can travel off-road, perform tire-based lifting, and travel with loads. Off-road tire cranes generally consist of a front axle suspension (rigid suspension) and a rear axle suspension (flexible suspension). Small and medium-tonnage off-road tire cranes are mostly equipped with two axles, while large-tonnage products are equipped with three axles.
[0088] It should be noted that the suspension cylinder hydraulic system of this application is not limited to use as an oil spring in all-terrain cranes, but can also be applied to other engineering machinery that requires the use of oil springs.
[0089] Reference Figure 5 The rear axle suspension includes a rear swing arm 400 and the aforementioned suspension cylinder hydraulic system. The first and second suspension cylinders are elastically supported between the rear swing arm 400 and the vehicle frame 200, respectively. The rear swing arm 400 is mounted on the rear axle 100, and tires 300 are mounted on both sides of the rear axle 100. In this way, the rear axle suspension, acting as oil springs, effectively dampens shocks between the vehicle frame 200 and the tires 300, especially after the air in the suspension cylinders is expelled, making the effect of the oil springs even more significant.
[0090] A cross-country tire crane typically includes a traveling hydraulic system, a slewing hydraulic system, and a lifting hydraulic system. Among them, the introduced pressure oil source 4 is a low-pressure oil whose oil pressure is lower than the working oil pressure of the traveling hydraulic system, the slewing hydraulic system, and the lifting hydraulic system, or it comes from the working oil circuit of the hydraulic system itself with low oil pressure.
