The throttle valve is of conventional hydraulic design and will not be described in detail here. The filter element status indicator A16 indicates that the chamber pressure is respectively connected to the high-pressure chamber and the low-pressure chamber of the filter element A15, and is used to monitor the pressure difference of the filter element A15. The filter element status indicator B22 indicates that the chamber pressure is respectively connected to the high-pressure chamber and the low-pressure chamber of the filter element A15, and is used to monitor the pressure difference of the filter element B23.

[0024] The switching valve 19 includes a second plug 601, a switching valve housing 602, a valve body 603, a fifth magnet 604 and a sixth magnet 607. The valve body 603 is arranged in the switching valve housing 602. The fifth magnet 604 and the sixth magnet 607 are arranged on both sides of the valve body 603. The second plug 601 is arranged at both ends of the switching valve housing 602. The fifth magnet 604 and the sixth magnet 607 are fixed on the second plug 601 respectively. The second plug 601 and the switching valve housing 602 are connected to each other. 02, a sealing ring 605 is arranged between the main valve A14 and the main valve B24, and a pressure sensing hole 1 300, a pressure sensing hole 2 400, a pressure sensing hole 3 500, a pressure sensing hole 4 600 and a pressure sensing hole 5 700 are arranged on the switching valve housing 602, and a sealing ring 7 606 is arranged at the orifices of the pressure sensing hole 1 300, the pressure sensing hole 2 400, the pressure sensing hole 3 500, the pressure sensing hole 4 600 and the pressure sensing hole 5 700, respectively. The switching valve 19 is used to control the opening / closing of the main valve A14 and the main valve B24, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 6 As shown, when the valve body 603 is located on the left side, the pressure-sensing hole 2 400 is connected to the pressure-sensing hole 3 500, at this time the main valve A14 is opened, the main valve B24 is closed, and the oil is filtered through the filter element A15; when the valve body 603 is located on the right side, the pressure-sensing hole 4 600 is connected to the pressure-sensing hole 3 500, at this time the main valve B24 is opened, the main valve A14 is closed, and the oil is filtered through the filter element B23; the pressure-sensing hole 1 300 of the switching valve 19 is connected to the high-pressure chamber of the filter element A15 and the low-pressure chamber of the filter element B23 respectively. When the valve body 603 is on the left, the main valve A14 is opened and the main valve B24 is closed. At this time, there is no oil flowing in the filter element B23. The high-pressure cavity and low-pressure cavity of the filter element B23 are both closed cavities. Therefore, at this time, the pressure-sensing hole 1300 of the switching valve 19 is connected to the high-pressure cavity of the filter element A15, and the pressure-sensing hole 5700 of the switching valve 19 is connected to the low-pressure cavity of the filter element A15. On the contrary, when the valve body 603 is on the left, the main valve A14 is opened and the main valve B24 is closed. At this time, there is no oil flowing in the filter element B23. The high-pressure cavity and the low-pressure cavity of the filter element B23 are both closed cavities. Therefore, at this time, the pressure-sensing hole 1300 of the switching valve 19 is connected to the high-pressure cavity of the filter element A15, and the pressure-sensing hole 5700 of the switching valve 19 is connected to the low-pressure cavity of the filter element A15. When it is on the right side, the main valve A14 is closed and the main valve B24 is opened. At this time, there is no oil flowing in the filter element A15. The high-pressure cavity and the low-pressure cavity of the filter element A15 are both closed cavities. Therefore, at this time, the pressure-sensing hole 1300 of the switching valve 19 is connected with the low-pressure cavity of the filter element B23, and the pressure-sensing hole 5700 of the switching valve 19 is connected with the high-pressure cavity of the filter element B23. To avoid replacing the filter element B23, the valve body 603 is on the left side at this time, the main valve A14 is opened, the main valve B24 is closed, and the pressure-sensing hole 5700 of the switching valve 19 is connected. The low-pressure chamber of filter element A15 is connected, and the high-pressure chamber of filter element B23 is connected. Due to the removal of the lower shell 2, the state of "both the high-pressure chamber and the low-pressure chamber of filter element B23 are closed chambers" is changed. At this time, the pressure-sensing hole 700 of the switching valve 19 may be connected to the external environment, resulting in pressure loss, which in turn causes the valve body 603 to move to the right, causing the main valve B to open, causing the oil to flow from the filter element B23 chamber to the external environment. The one-way valve 7 set between the switching valve 19 and the high-pressure chamber of the filter element can effectively solve this problem.

[0025] The lower housing 2 is provided with two, the filter element A15 and the filter element B23 are the same and are respectively installed in the lower housing 2, the bottom of the lower housing 2 is connected with a drain screw 3 through a thread, and the drain screw 3 is loosened to discharge the oil in the filter element cavity, the inlet pipe joint 9 is connected with the upper housing 1 through a thread, and a sealing ring 10 is arranged between the inlet pipe joint 9 and the upper housing 1, the outlet pipe joint 13 is connected with the upper housing 1 through a thread, and a sealing ring 2 12 is arranged between the outlet pipe joint 13 and the upper housing 1.

The filter element status indicator A16 displays green, the main valve B24 is closed, and there is no oil flowing through the filter element B23. The filter element status indicator B22 displays orange; as the working time increases, the flow resistance of the filter element A15 gradually increases. When the filter element A15 is blocked, the filter element status indicator A16 displays green and red. At this time, the valve body 603 of the switching valve 19 moves to the right.
