[0019] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention comprises a working link 13, and the working link 13 is used for distributing fluid to drive the actuator to work.
[0021] like Figure 2 , the left and right sides of the top of the working link 13 are respectively provided with oil passages A and B, and the oil passages A and B are used to connect the actuator. An oil inlet P port and a pressure compensation valve are provided on one side of the bottom of the working link 13, and an annular oil passage 14 and a U-shaped oil passage 13 are provided in the middle. The inlets of the oil passages A and B are connected to the annular oil passage 14, and the two ends of the U-shaped oil passage 13 are connected to the annular oil passage 14 outside the oil passages A and B. The P port is connected to the inlet of the oil inlet passage 12 through the pressure compensation valve, and the U-shaped oil passage 13 is located between the valve core 5 and the pressure Between the force compensator valve core, the outlet of the oil inlet channel 12 is connected to the annular oil channel 14 outside the U-shaped oil channel 13, and the valve core 5 is arranged horizontally along the working link 13, penetrating the annular oil channel 14, and controlling the oil inlet channel 12 to supply oil to one of the oil channels A and the oil channel B. Specifically, when the oil channel A supplies oil to the actuator, the oil inlet channel 12 supplies oil to the oil channel A through the annular oil channel 14 and the U-shaped oil channel 13; when the oil channel B supplies oil to the actuator, the oil inlet channel 12 directly supplies oil to the oil channel B through the annular oil channel 14.
[0022] A plug 2 and a sealing ring 3 are arranged on the working joint 13 at one end of the valve core 5, and the other end extends out of the working joint 13 and is provided with a joint, which is connected to the control valve to control the left and right movement of the valve core 5. The displacement of the valve core 5 controls the output of the flow.
[0023] In order to simplify the oil passage and reduce the number of interfaces, the U-shaped oil passage 13 is set outside the oil passages A and B, but at the same time, the LS oil passage is blocked, so the U-shaped oil passage 13, the bottom of the U-shaped oil passage 13 is connected to the spring chamber of the pressure compensation valve spool 11, thereby, the LS port 4 is formed between the annular oil passage 14 and the U-shaped oil passage 13, no matter whether the oil inlet passage 12 supplies oil to the oil passage A or the oil passage B, the oil in the oil inlet passage 12 can enter the spring chamber of the compensation valve spool 11 through the annular oil passage 14, so that the oil pressure of the oil inlet passage 12 is stable. There is no need to open the LS oil passage on the valve core 5.
[0024] There is an oil return T port between oil channel A and oil channel B. When the oil inlet oil channel 12 is connected to one of oil channel A and oil channel B, the other unconnected one is connected to the T port to perform oil return. The two ends of the U-shaped oil channel 13 are connected to the annular oil channel 14 outside the oil channels A and B, which can reduce the number of oil return T ports to one, thereby increasing the inner diameter of the oil channel and reducing pressure loss.
[0025] The pressure compensating valve includes a compensating valve core 11, which has three steps, a neck between two steps, a throttling groove on the middle step, the opening direction of the throttling groove toward the spring end 1 of the compensating valve core 11, a damping hole on the neck near the spring end 1, an internal oil channel on the bottom end of the compensating valve core 11 (away from the spring end 1), and oil can enter the bottom end of the compensating valve core from the damping hole and the oil channel, and a plug is provided on the working joint at the bottom end of the compensating valve core 11. The compensator valve core 11 is parallel to the valve core 5.
[0026] The U-shaped oil passage 13 is arranged outside the oil passages A and B, and the hydraulic control type hydraulic lock is limited in driving. Therefore, a hydraulic lock is arranged on the oil passage B. The hydraulic lock is arranged longitudinally along the working joint 13 and is perpendicular to the valve core 5. The hydraulic lock includes a lock core 10, a plug 8, and a butterfly spring 7. The butterfly spring 7 is located between the plug 8 and the lock core 10 to reset the lock core 10, and the lock core 10 controls the opening and closing of the oil passage B. There is a steel ball 9 in the lock core 10, and the steel ball 9 presses the free end of the butterfly spring 7. A push pin 6 is connected to the bottom of the lock core 10. One end of the push pin 6 contacts the steel ball 9, and the other end contacts the valve core 5. There is a slope in the middle of the valve core 5. When the valve core 5 moves, the steel ball can be lifted up by the slope and the push pin, so that the pressure in the lower cavity of the steel ball is equal to the pressure in the upper cavity of the steel ball, and then the lock core 10 is pushed open by the push pin 6, so that the lock core is fully opened, the oil passage B is connected, and the flow passes through. The oil passage B is also provided with an additional oil passage 15, which is used to install other valves, such as an anti-cavitation valve and an overflow protection valve.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, when the valve core 5 moves to the right position 1 in the figure, the oil enters from the P port, enters the bottom end of the compensation valve core 11 through the damping hole of the compensation valve core 11 and the internal oil channel, pushes open the compensation valve core 11, and enters the annular oil channel 14. A part of the oil in the annular oil channel 14 enters the oil channel B, pushes open the lock core 10, and enters the actuator, and the other part is fed back to the spring chamber of the compensation valve core 11 through the U-shaped oil channel 13. At the same time, the end of the U-shaped oil channel 13 close to the oil channel A is blocked by the valve core 5, and the oil channel A is connected to the T port, and the actuator returns oil through the oil channel A.
[0028] When the valve core 5 moves to the left 2 position in the figure, the oil enters the actuator through the annular oil passage 14, the U-shaped oil passage 13, and the oil passage A, the valve core 5 pushes the lock core 10 through the push pin 6, the oil passage B is connected to the T port, and the actuator returns oil through the oil passage B. When the valve core 5 moves to the F position in the figure, it is a floating position.
