Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydraulic pressure of excavating machinery, and in particular to a main valve of a logging machine with integrated multiple functions. Background Art
[0002] Currently, with the growing demand in the forestry market, more and more host companies are choosing to improve the actuators and hydraulic systems based on the flexible and efficient platform of excavators. They have designed and launched derivative models suitable for forestry operations and full-time logging. They use logging equipment instead of traditional buckets. This type of logging equipment can hold trees tightly and cut them into several trunks of the required length.
[0003] A typical felling machine typically features front and rear claws, a saw blade, a feed roller, and a tilting mechanism. The front and rear claws grip the tree trunk, severing forked branches and performing the limbing function. The saw blade cuts the trunk, and the feed roller advances the tree a certain distance after each cut, allowing the tree to be cut into multiple sections. The tilting mechanism adjusts the felling machine's posture, allowing it to lay down a vertical tree horizontally after cutting. Opening and closing the front and rear claws, feeding the chainsaw and blade, rotating and clamping the feed roller, and tilting the machine are typical functions of a felling machine. Some felling machines also offer additional optional features. For example, a measuring roller ensures that each section is the desired length. A slewing mechanism allows the entire machine to rotate and adjust its posture to accommodate complex forest terrain. Other features include chain saw blade lubrication and tensioning. These functions of logging equipment are relatively complex and require multiple actuators such as cylinders and hydraulic motors to achieve. Therefore, in addition to the excavator main valve, a special logging equipment main valve is required for control.
[0004] In order to meet the working conditions, most of the main valves of logging tools on the market are specially designed special valves, but they are nothing more than throttling integrated valves composed of several plate valves and superimposed valves or load-sensitive plate-type multi-way valves. Summary of the Invention

The invention sets a load-sensitive valve group for pre-valve compensation to precisely and synchronously control the feed rollers, and the speeds of the two roller motors remain the same and are not affected by the load; a reduction valve is set The pressure valve is integrated with the control oil port, which can provide pilot control oil to drive the chain saw lubrication valve to achieve chain lubrication; the main solenoid valve and the chain saw two-way flow valve are set for control, so that the speed of the chain saw motor is basically constant; multiple groups of superimposed valve groups consisting of buffer oil suction valve groups, superimposed one-way valves, superimposed pressure reducing valves, and electromagnetic reversing valves are set to control the pressure and direction of multiple actuators; at the same time, the valve group integrates multiple functional control oil ports and oil circuits, which can simplify the hydraulic system oil circuit, has high integration and small size, and is easy to install in the narrow space inside the harvesting head of logging machinery.

The movement stroke of the main valve core is controlled by the pilot solenoid valve, thereby controlling the output flow rate of the working port. The oil drain ports of the pilot solenoid valves on the two load-sensitive valve groups are both connected to the Dr oil drain port oil circuit.
[0012] Furthermore, the buffer integrated valve group is provided with a buffer oil suction valve B, a pressure reducing valve B and an oil port C for providing external pilot oil to other valves.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0024] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a main valve for a logging tool with multiple functions is provided, comprising: a main integrated valve group 1, a load-sensing valve group 2, a buffer integrated valve group 3, a two-way flow valve 4, a valve block 5, a roller clamping valve group, a front blade opening and closing valve group, a rear blade opening and closing valve group, a tilting valve group, a saw blade feed valve group, a rotary valve group, and a length measuring sensor roller retraction and extension valve group; The two-way flow valve 4 is installed on the main integrated valve group 1. The outlet of the two-way flow valve 4 is connected to the chain saw motor. The main integrated valve group 1 controls the on-off of the oil supply line to the two-way flow valve 4, thereby controlling the start and stop of the chain saw motor connected to the outlet of the two-way flow valve 4. The two load-sensing valves are installed on the main integrated valve group 1. Each load-sensing valve is connected to a feed roller motor. The two feed rollers are precisely and synchronously controlled by the two load-sensing valves so that the speeds of the two feed roller motors remain the same and are not affected by the load. The buffer integrated valve group 3 is installed on one of the load-sensing valve groups 2. The buffer integrated valve group 3 is used to limit the main oil circuit pressure of the P port of the main integrated valve group 1 of the logging machine and provide external pilot oil for other valves. The main integrated valve group 1, roller clamping valve group, front knife opening and closing valve group, rear knife opening and closing valve group, tilting valve group, saw blade feed valve group, rotary valve group, and length measuring sensor roller retraction valve group are installed on the valve block 5.

[0025] The two load-sensing valve groups 2 are respectively superimposed on the upper and lower sides of the main integrated valve group 1 .
[0026] The main integrated valve group 1 is equipped with a pressure reducing valve A1.1 of the main valve of the logging tool, a main solenoid valve 1.2, a P-port main oil circuit, a T-port return oil circuit, a Dr oil drain port oil circuit and corresponding pressure measuring joints for troubleshooting. The inlet of the pressure reducing valve A1.1 is connected to the P-port main oil circuit, and the outlet of the pressure reducing valve A1.1 is connected to two load-sensitive valves respectively. The oil drain port of the pressure reducing valve A1.1 is connected to the Dr oil drain port oil circuit, the inlet of the main solenoid valve 1.2 is connected to the P-port main oil circuit, and the outlet of the main solenoid valve 1.2 is connected to the inlet of the two-way flow valve 4. The oil supply circuit to the two-way flow valve 4 is controlled by controlling the power on and off of the main solenoid valve 1.2, thereby controlling the start and stop of the chain saw motor connected to the outlet V of the two-way flow valve 4.
[0027] Since the speeds of the two roller motors need to be kept basically consistent when feeding wood, the design of the load-sensing valve group 2 adopts the typical pre-valve compensation principle; the load-sensing valve group 2 is provided with a main valve core 2.1, a pressure compensation valve 2.2, a pilot solenoid valve 2.3, a buffer oil suction valve A2.4, a working oil circuit A, a working oil circuit B and corresponding pressure measuring oil circuits a and b for troubleshooting.

The inlet of the pressure compensation valve 2.2 is connected to the P-port main oil circuit of the main integrated valve group 1, and the outlet of the pressure compensation valve 2.2 is connected to the inlet of the main valve core 2.1. The pressure compensation valve 2.2 is used to keep the inlet and outlet pressure difference of the main valve core 2.1 constant. When the main valve core 2.1 is in the working position, the outlet of the main valve core 2.1 is connected to the working oil circuit A or the working oil circuit B, and the return oil circuit of the main valve core 2.1 is connected to the T-port return oil circuit of the main integrated valve group 1.

The two buffer oil suction valves A2.4 are arranged on the working oil circuit A and the working oil circuit B. The outlet of the buffer oil suction valve A2.4 is connected to the T-port return oil circuit of the main integrated valve group 1. The buffer oil suction valve A2.4 is used to limit the working port pressure to protect the roller motor and replenish oil to the roller motor to prevent air suction; the inlets of the two pilot solenoid valves 2.3 are connected to the outlet of the pressure reducing valve A1.1 in the main integrated valve group 1.

The outlets of the two pilot solenoid valves 2.3 are respectively connected to the two sides of the main valve core 2.1. The movement stroke of the main valve core 2.1 is controlled by the pilot solenoid valve 2.3, thereby controlling the output flow rate of the working port. The drain ports of the pilot solenoid valves 2.3 on the two load-sensitive valve groups 2 are both connected to the Dr drain port oil circuit.
[0028] By setting the pressure compensation valve 2.2, the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the main valve core 2.1 can be kept constant, so that the output flow of the working port is related to the stroke of the main valve core 2.1 and is independent of the load. The two feed rollers can be precisely and synchronously controlled, and the speeds of the two roller motors can be kept the same and unaffected by the load. This avoids the problem of inaccurate wood feed length or feeding difficulty caused by a decrease in motor speed due to an increase in load, and the problem of scratching the bark due to inconsistent speeds of the two motors due to different loads.
