Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of excavators, specifically, it relates to an excavator and its hydraulic system and main valve. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional excavator breaker control systems, such as Figure 1 As shown, a hydraulic breaker operates using hydraulic energy provided by the excavator's hydraulic system. The energy output from the main pump is transmitted to the breaker via the main valve, driving its operation. Traditional hydraulic breaker control systems typically use one main pump for control and another as an auxiliary pump; however, the auxiliary pump cannot control the hydraulic breaker independently. Using a single pump results in higher breaking efficiency, but also reduces pump lifespan. Using two pumps leads to significant energy loss.
[0003] For large hydraulic breakers, there are also products available. Figure 2 The crushing control system shown includes a first main pump 5, a second main pump 6, and a main valve 7, requiring an additional crushing control valve 8. Considering that large hydraulic breakers generally require large flow rates and high pressures, the crushing control valve 8 is inherently large and externally mounted on the side of the main valve 7, occupying significant space, complicating piping layout, and significantly increasing costs. An external crushing control system is both bulky and difficult to install. Summary of the Invention

[0058] 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 this application.
[0059] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes the excavator main valve, the excavator hydraulic system, and the excavator according to this application.
[0060] This application discloses a novel excavator main valve. For example... Figure 3 As shown, in one specific embodiment, the excavator main valve includes:
[0061] A multi-way valve assembly includes a first multi-way valve 1 with a first oil inlet P1 and a second multi-way valve 2 with a second oil inlet P2. The first multi-way valve 1 includes a breaker valve plate 11, and the second multi-way valve 2 is provided with an internal bypass oil passage L3 led out from the second oil inlet P2.
[0062] The external breaker valve 3 is connected to the internal bypass oil circuit L3 and is used to control the flow of pressure oil in the internal bypass oil circuit L3 and drive the excavator's breaker hammer 100 to work.
[0063] As can be seen, in this application, an external breaker valve 3 for controlling the breaker hammer 100 is added to the outside of the multi-way valve group of the excavator. Simultaneously, an internal bypass oil passage L3, leading from the second oil inlet P2, is added inside the second multi-way valve 2. The external breaker valve 3 is connected to the internal bypass oil passage L3, specifically to the third oil outlet P3 of the internal bypass oil passage L3 on the valve body of the multi-way valve group. Thus, pressurized oil can flow to the breaker hammer 100 via the first oil inlet P1 and the breaker hammer valve plate 11, or via the second oil inlet P2, the internal bypass oil passage L3, the third oil outlet P3, and the external breaker valve 3, providing a more flexible oil supply method.
[0064] See Figure 3The first multi-way valve 1 includes multiple first working valve plates and a first main oil supply circuit L1 that connects each of the first working valve plates (the breaker valve plate 11 is one of the first working valve plates) sequentially from the first oil inlet P1. The second multi-way valve 2 includes multiple second working valve plates and a second main oil supply circuit L2 that connects each of the second working valve plates sequentially from the second oil inlet P2. An internal bypass circuit L3 is arranged in parallel with the second main oil supply circuit L2. The second working valve plate includes a breaker confluence valve 21, which is used to control the flow of pressure oil from the second main oil supply circuit L2 to the breaker valve plate 11.
[0065] As can be seen, pressurized oil can flow to the breaker 100 via the second oil inlet P2, the second main oil supply circuit L2, the breaker confluence valve 21, and the breaker valve plate 11. This allows for independent control of the breaker 100 by the two pumps, or for the two pumps to be combined, thus improving the flexibility of breaker control. The excavator main valve equipped with this new structure can achieve flexible control of single or dual pumps.
[0066] See Figure 4 The excavator main valve in this embodiment may further include:
[0067] Controller 10 is used to control the breaker valve plate 11, the external breaker valve 3, and the breaker confluence valve 21 respectively, and is configured as follows:
[0068] In the first working mode, the control opens the hydraulic breaker valve plate 11 separately, so that the pressure oil in the first main oil supply circuit L1 is connected and drives the hydraulic breaker 100 to work.
[0069] In the second working mode, the external crushing valve 3 is opened separately, so that the pressure oil in the internal bypass oil circuit L3 is connected and drives the breaker hammer 100 to work.
[0070] In the third working mode, the control opens the breaker valve plate 11 and the external breaker valve 3 together, so that the pressure oil of the first main oil supply circuit L1 and the internal bypass oil circuit L3 jointly drives the breaker 100 to work.
[0071] Therefore, by simply controlling the breaker valve plate 11, the external breaker valve 3, and the breaker confluence valve 21 via the controller 10 using electronic and / or hydraulic control methods respectively, different oil supply methods for the breaker 100 can be easily achieved. Figure 4As can be seen, in the first working mode, the pressurized oil flows to the breaker 100 through the first oil inlet P1 and the breaker valve plate 11; in the second working mode, the pressurized oil flows to the breaker 100 through the second oil inlet P2, the internal bypass oil passage L3, and the external breaker valve 3; in the third working mode, one path of the pressurized oil flows to the breaker valve plate 11 through the first oil inlet P1 and the first main oil supply oil passage L1, while the other path of the pressurized oil flows to the breaker valve plate 11 through the second oil inlet P2, the second main oil supply oil passage L2, the breaker confluence valve 21, and the breaker valve plate 11, and then flows to the breaker 100 after converging, jointly driving the breaker to work.
[0072] Specifically, the controller 10 of this embodiment can also be configured as follows:
[0073] In the fourth working mode, the valve plate 11 of the breaker and the external breaker valve 3 are opened alternately, so that the pressure oil of the first main oil supply circuit L1 and the pressure oil of the internal bypass oil circuit L3 alternately drive the breaker 100 to work.
[0074] In other words, through the periodic control of the controller 10, the hydraulic breaker 100 can be driven alternately in the first working mode and the second working mode, which can make the two pumps work alternately and extend the service life of the single pump.
[0075] Specifically, as an example, in the fourth operating mode, the controller 10 can be configured to repeatedly perform the following control steps:
[0076] Control the opening of the hydraulic breaker valve plate 11 and the closing of the external breaker valve 3;
[0077] Continue for the first time interval T1;
[0078] Control the opening of the external crushing valve 3 and the closing of the breaker hammer valve plate 11;
[0079] Continue for the second time interval T2.
[0080] During operation, the values of T1 and T2 can be preset as needed to adjust the independent running time of a single pump, providing greater flexibility and convenience. It should be noted that the matching between the controller 10 and the solenoid valve is crucial; the quality of this matching directly affects the impact effect of the hydraulic breaker and the service life of the main pump.
[0081] The control valve associated with controller 10 can be a solenoid valve or a pilot-operated hydraulic valve, etc. Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, the breaker valve plate 11, the external breaker valve 3, and the breaker confluence valve 21 are all hydraulically piloted directional valves, and the excavator main valve includes:
[0082] The pilot valve group 4 includes a first pilot switch valve, a second pilot switch valve and a third pilot switch valve arranged in parallel. The first pilot switch valve is connected to the control port of the external crushing valve 3 through the first pilot control oil circuit. The second pilot switch valve is connected to the control port of the breaker valve plate 11 through the second pilot control oil circuit. The third pilot switch valve is connected to the control port of the crushing confluence valve 21 through the third pilot control oil circuit.
[0083] The controller 10 is also used to switch the first pilot valve, the second pilot valve and the third pilot valve on and off respectively.
[0084] See Figure 4 The pilot valve assembly 4 includes a first pilot switching valve, a second pilot switching valve, and a third pilot switching valve arranged in parallel from left to right. Each valve controls the on / off state of its respective pilot control oil circuit, thereby controlling the switching operation of the corresponding control valve. Of course, those skilled in the art will understand that the first, second, and third pilot switching valves can be solenoid valves. In other embodiments, the breaker valve plate 11, the external breaker valve 3, and the breaker confluence valve 21 can also be solenoid valves.
[0085] In this embodiment, the external crushing valve 3 is similar to a controllable check valve and can be bolted to a multi-way valve assembly. As is well known to those skilled in the art, there are many structural forms and control methods for the external crushing valve 3; this embodiment serves as an example. Figure 5 The external crushing valve 3 includes:
[0086] Cartridge valve 31, the first main oil port of cartridge valve 31 is connected to the internal bypass oil passage L3 and the second main oil port is used to connect the oil passage to the hydraulic breaker 100.
[0087] The reversing control valve 32 includes a first working port connected to the control chamber of the cartridge valve 31, a second working port located on the other side and connected to the valve core chamber of the cartridge valve 31, and a control valve return port.
[0088] The reversing control valve 32 is used to switch the first working oil port to the second working oil port or the control valve return port.
[0089] Combination Figure 4 The pilot valve assembly 4 shown has an external breaker valve 3 based on a cartridge valve 31, allowing for large flow rates. It is then combined with a directional control valve 32 as the control valve for the cartridge valve 31. Figure 4In this configuration, one main oil port of cartridge valve 31 is connected to the third oil outlet P3 on the valve body of the multi-way valve assembly, and the other main oil port is connected to the hydraulic breaker 100. To control the opening and closing of cartridge valve 31, the spring chamber of cartridge valve 31 (i.e., the left chamber of cartridge valve 31 in the figure) is connected to the upper working oil port of directional control valve 32. The directional control valve 32 has two lower working oil ports, one of which is a return oil port, and the other is connected to the valve core chamber of cartridge valve 31 (i.e., the right chamber of cartridge valve 31 in the figure).
[0090] Thus, when pilot pressure oil is introduced into port XAo, the reversing control valve 32 switches to the left position, thereby connecting the spring chamber of cartridge valve 31 with the return port. Cartridge valve 31 is in the conducting state, and the pressure oil in the internal bypass oil circuit L3 can pass through cartridge valve 31 and port Ao to the hydraulic breaker 100. When pilot pressure oil is not introduced into port XAo, the reversing control valve 32 switches to the right position, thereby connecting the spring chamber of cartridge valve 31 with the valve core chamber. The valve core of the cartridge valve blocks the valve port under the action of the spring force, and cartridge valve 31 is in the closed state. The pressure oil in the internal bypass oil circuit L3 cannot pass through cartridge valve 31.
[0091] In addition, the second main oil port of the cartridge valve 31 is also equipped with a check valve. The check valve is used to allow the pressurized oil to flow from the valve core cavity of the cartridge valve 31 to the breaker hammer 100 and to cut off the flow in the reverse direction, thereby preventing oil backflow.
[0092] In this embodiment, the excavator's crushing function only requires one oil outlet, and the crushing function does not require micro-motion. Therefore, the external crushing valve 3 does not use the traditional slide valve core control, but adopts the form of a cone valve.
[0093] This application also discloses a hydraulic system for an excavator, such as Figure 4 As shown, the excavator hydraulic system of this embodiment includes:
[0094] The aforementioned excavator main valve;
[0095] The first main pump 5 is used to pump oil toward the first oil inlet P1 of the multi-way valve group;
[0096] The second main pump 6 is used to pump oil toward the second oil inlet P2 of the multi-way valve group;
[0097] The hydraulic breaker 100 is connected by an oil circuit to the hydraulic breaker valve plate 11 and the external breaker valve 3.
[0098] As can be seen, the excavator hydraulic system of this application is a dual-circuit control system, especially suitable for the hydraulic systems of medium and large excavators. It generally has two main pumps, and the two pumps can independently control the breaking function. In this dual-circuit control system, the breaking control valve is integrated inside the main valve, which is small in size and does not require external pipelines. The two pumps can independently drive the breaker hammer to work, and can be controlled by a single pump or both pumps. At the same time, depending on the working conditions, the first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 can be controlled intermittently.
[0099] In particular, both the first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 are proportional variable pumps, so that in the intermittent working mode, the controller 10 can control the distribution of power between the first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6, thus making the control more flexible.
[0100] The aforementioned excavator hydraulic system is applied to excavators, especially those with a rated tonnage of not less than 50t.
[0101] This application adds an external hydraulic valve, namely an external breaker valve 3, to the conventional excavator main valve. This external valve is also a hydraulically controlled check valve that can be bolted to a multi-way valve assembly. The main valve is compact, facilitating pipeline layout. The breaker control system equipped with this novel structure allows for flexible control of single and dual pumps. It allows the first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 to independently control the breaker hammer, or it allows for dual-pump merging, improving the flexibility of breaker control. Furthermore, the external breaker valve 3 added outside the main valve makes the control method of the breaker hammer 100 more flexible, enabling alternating control of the two pumps, thereby achieving energy savings and significantly extending pump lifespan.
[0102] Depending on the crushing conditions, the control program of controller 10 can achieve the following functions:
[0103] 1. The first main pump 5 operates independently, while the second main pump 6 does not operate;
[0104] 2. The second main pump 6 operates independently, while the first main pump 5 does not operate;
[0105] 3. The first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 work in tandem, and the power between the two pumps is controlled proportionally by the control program;
[0106] 4. The first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 work alternately and independently, and the alternation interval can be controlled by the control program.
[0107] In actual operation, the high-pressure oil output from the first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 enters the multi-way valve group. When the operator performs crushing operations, the electrical signal output by the controller 10 controls the corresponding action of the pilot valve group 4. If the first main pump 5 needs to work alone, the pilot pressure oil can be supplied through port A2 of the pilot valve group 4, while the other ports are closed. If the second main pump 6 needs to work alone, the pilot pressure oil can be supplied through port A1 of the pilot valve group 4, while the other ports are closed. If the first main pump 5 and the second main pump 6 need to be combined to drive the breaker hammer 100, the pilot pressure oil can be supplied through ports A2 and A3 of the pilot valve group 4, while the other ports are closed.
