[0028] To make the objectives, contents and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following further describes the detailed implementation manners of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0029] This embodiment provides a highly adaptable pressure - controllable flow - dividing control valve, and its structure is as shown in Figure 1 and 2 It mainly includes a flow - dividing valve block 1, a check valve 2, a relief valve 3, a pressure sensor 4, a temperature sensor 5, a main inlet oil joint 6, a main return oil joint 7, a main drain oil joint 8, two branch inlet oil joints 9, two branch return oil joints 10, a main confluence drain oil joint 11, two M22 plugs 12, two φ22 mm combined gaskets 13, an M33 plug 14 and a φ33 mm combined gasket 15.

[0030] The flow - dividing control valve is generally fixed on the horizontal deck of a special vehicle during use. As shown in Figure 3As shown, the material of the flow dividing valve block 1 is 45# high carbon steel. Six bolt fixing holes 110 are machined on the surface and it is fixed on the horizontal deck with M8×70 bolts. Inside the flow dividing valve block 1, an oil inlet channel 101, an oil return channel 102, an oil drain channel 103, a check valve mounting hole 104, a relief valve mounting hole 105, a pressure sensor mounting hole 106, a temperature sensor mounting hole 107, a tubing joint mounting hole 108 and a plug mounting hole 109 are machined.

[0031] The check valve 2 is installed in the check valve mounting hole 104 of the flow dividing valve block 1, enabling the oil in the return oil circuit to return to the inlet oil circuit through the check valve 2, forming a protection mechanism to protect the fan motor. This prevents the fan motor from being burned due to lack of oil lubrication when the hydraulic system suddenly loses pressure and the hydraulic control fan continues to rotate due to inertia.

[0032] The relief valve 3 is installed in the relief valve mounting hole 105 of the flow dividing valve block 1. The relief valve 3 is small in volume, compact in structure, has good flow characteristics, low noise and stable pressure, and is widely used as a safety valve in hydraulic systems. This type of relief valve is an adjusting screw type and can adjust the pressure within the range of 0 to 40 Mpa. As Figure 4 shown, the end of the relief valve 3 is an internal hexagonal adjusting screw 302 for adjusting the system pressure. When the pressure of the fan drive system is too high, the system pressure can be steplessly adjusted by rotating the locking nut 301 and the adjusting screw 302, enabling the oil in the main inlet oil circuit to directly enter the main return oil circuit and return to the fuel tank through the relief valve 3, ensuring the safety and reliability of the system.

[0033] The pressure sensor 4 and the temperature sensor 5 are respectively installed in the pressure sensor mounting hole 106 and the temperature sensor mounting hole 107 of the flow dividing valve block 1. Among them, the pressure sensor 4 is located on the main inlet oil circuit and the temperature sensor 5 is located on the main return oil circuit, respectively used to collect the pressure of the main inlet oil circuit and the temperature of the main return oil circuit of the system. The sensors upload the collected pressure and temperature data to the driver's terminal, and the driver can monitor the health status of the fan drive system in real time through the terminal and judge whether the pressure of the main inlet oil circuit and the temperature of the main return oil circuit of the fan drive system are normal.

[0034] The main inlet oil joint 6, the main return oil joint 7, the main drain oil joint 8, two branch inlet oil joints 9, two branch return oil joints 10 and the main confluence drain oil joint 11 are respectively installed in the corresponding mounting holes of the flow dividing valve block 1 for connecting the pipelines of the hydraulic system. Among them,

[0035] The main oil inlet joint 6 is installed at the oil inlet end of the oil pipe joint mounting hole 108, the main oil return joint 7 is installed at the oil return end of the oil pipe joint mounting hole 108, the main oil drain joint 8 is installed at the oil drain end of the oil pipe joint mounting hole 108, the two branch oil inlet joints 9 are installed on the two oil inlet holes above the oil inlet oil channel 101, the two branch oil return joints 10 are installed on the two oil return holes above the oil return oil channel 102, and the oil drain joint 11 is installed on the oil drain hole above the oil drain oil channel 103.

[0036] The M22 screw plug 12 and the φ22mm combination gasket 13 are installed in the corresponding screw plug installation hole 109 in the diverter valve block 1 to block the process hole required for the diverter valve oil channel processing. There are two process holes, one in the main oil inlet and one in the main oil return. During the system maintenance process, the two process holes can be connected to the required type of test oil gauge as needed to improve the accessibility of system maintenance and guarantee.

[0037] The M33 screw plug 14 and the φ33 mm combination gasket 15 are cooperatively installed on the corresponding one-way valve installation hole 104 in the diverter valve block 1 to block the one-way valve installation hole 104 after the one-way valve 2 is installed.

[0038] The present invention realizes that the pressure of the fan drive system can be adjusted and monitored by adopting the measures of built-in overflow valve, pressure sensor and temperature sensor in the diverter control valve. The following briefly describes the system pressure adjustment operation process:

[0039] When the pressure of the fan drive system is too high, the pressure can be adjusted by adjusting the adjusting screw 301 of the relief valve 3. To ensure the safety of equipment and personnel, the hydraulic system must be turned off before adjustment to put the system in a pressure-free state. First, loosen the fastening nut 301 on the adjusting screw 302 of the relief valve 3 with a wrench, and then use the hexagonal wrench to adjust the extension length of the screw 302. The extension length of the adjusting screw 302 determines the system pressure. Adjust the adjusting screw 302 to an appropriate length according to actual needs, then run the hydraulic system, and read the system pressure through the driver terminal to see if it meets the use requirements. If it does not meet the requirements, turn off the hydraulic system and continue to adjust the length of the screw 302. If it meets the requirements, tighten the fastening nut 301.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
