Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of hydraulic systems, and in particular relates to a bifurcated hydraulic system of an oil delivery arm. Background Art
[0002] With the development of industrial technology, modern hydraulic system technology has become increasingly sophisticated. In existing technology, the oil transfer arm, also known as the marine oil transfer arm or marine liquid loading and unloading arm, is a special device installed on the dock to load and unload fluid materials between the dock and the tank ship. The oil transfer arm consists of an inner arm, an outer arm, and a rotary joint. The rotary joint connects the inner and outer arms to perform related operations, realizing the rotation of the outer arm. The oil transfer arm realizes the loading and unloading of materials through the inner and outer arms. In order to realize the hydraulic drive of the oil transfer arm, a hydraulic system is required. Patent CN110939620B discloses a boom lifting hydraulic system comprising: an oil cylinder connected to the boom; a balancing valve connected to the rod chamber of the oil cylinder and a load-independent balancing valve connected to the rodless chamber, the two balancing valves being used to supply oil to the oil chamber of the oil cylinder; a reversing valve connected to the two balancing valves; an oil pump for supplying oil to the reversing valve; a pressure-relief valve connected to the reversing valve; and an electro-proportional pressure-reducing valve connected to the pressure-relief valve, the electro-proportional pressure-reducing valve being connected to the load-independent balancing valve. When the boom is lowered, the reversing valve switches direction, and the pressure oil provided by the oil pump enters the rod chamber of the oil cylinder through the balancing valve. Simultaneously, the pressure oil is reduced in pressure by passing through the pressure-relief valve and the electro-proportional pressure-reducing valve. The reduced-pressure hydraulic oil then enters the load-independent balancing valve to control the opening of its valve core, allowing the boom to descend steadily under the action of gravity. This device still has defects when in use. Each hydraulic pipeline of the system needs to be equipped with an oil pump device. When the system fails, a lot of manpower is needed to find out which oil pump has a problem, which wastes maintenance time. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to address the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a forked hydraulic system for an oil transfer arm. When the device is in use, the hydraulic pump applies oil pressure to the annular steel pipe through the oil pump pipe. At this time, the servo motor drives the slot frame to rotate one unit angle each time, and the slot frame drives the oil supply valve and the annular steel pipe to rotate until the docking port is aligned with one of the forks. The oil pressure output by the annular steel pipe can be transmitted through the docking port and the fork at this position. Each fork corresponds to a hydraulic valve. When the docking port is rotated to align with the hydraulic valve at the position of the boom hydraulic pipe, the boom hydraulic press starts working to lift up the boom of the cantilever beam. When the docking port is rotated to align with the hydraulic valve at the position of the fork hydraulic pipe, the fork hydraulic press starts working to lift up the boom of the cantilever beam, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a bifurcated hydraulic system of an oil delivery arm, comprising a fixed arm, a cantilever beam arm and a cantilever beam arm, the fixed arm and the cantilever beam arm are hinged by a first hinge shaft, the cantilever beam arm and the cantilever beam arm are hinged by a second hinge shaft, a boom hydraulic press is further connected between the side walls of the fixed arm and the cantilever beam arm, a cantilever beam arm hydraulic press is further connected between the side walls of the cantilever beam arm and the cantilever beam arm, and the boom hydraulic press and the cantilever arm hydraulic press are connected to a hydraulic control mechanism; the hydraulic control mechanism comprises a hydraulic box at the top of the fixed arm, the top of the hydraulic box is provided with an annular groove, the annular groove The cross-section of the groove is semicircular, and an annular steel pipe is slidingly provided inside the annular groove, and a clamping assembly matching the annular steel pipe is provided on the top of the hydraulic box; a docking port is provided at the bottom of the annular steel pipe, and eight forked openings that can be docked with the docking port are provided on the inner side wall of the annular groove, and each fork is connected to a hydraulic valve, two of which are connected to the boom hydraulic pipe and the arm hydraulic pipe, the boom hydraulic pipe is connected to the hydraulic cavity of the boom hydraulic press, and the arm hydraulic pipe is connected to the hydraulic cavity of the arm hydraulic press; the annular steel pipe is connected to the oil supply device, and the annular steel pipe is also connected to the angle control mechanism.
[0005] When in use, the annular steel pipe rotates one unit angle each time until the docking port is aligned with one of the forks. The oil pressure output by the annular steel pipe can be transmitted through the docking port and the fork at this position. Each fork corresponds to a hydraulic valve. When the docking port is rotated to align with the hydraulic valve at the position of the boom hydraulic pipe, the boom hydraulic press starts working to lift up the boom of the cantilever beam. When the docking port is rotated to align with the hydraulic valve at the position of the forearm hydraulic pipe, the forearm hydraulic press starts working to lift up the forearm of the cantilever beam. The hydraulic system of this process only needs one annular steel pipe to drive the oil pressure.
[0006] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a pressure cover plate and a center cover plate, and the inner wall of the pressure cover plate and the outer wall of the center cover plate are both provided with docking grooves, the three arcs of the cross-section of the two docking grooves and the annular groove are at the same center of the circle, and the two docking grooves and the annular groove are tightly fitted on the outer wall of the annular steel pipe.
[0007] During use, when assembling the annular steel pipe, first install the annular steel pipe into the annular groove, and then press the pressure cover plate and the center cover plate against the annular steel pipe and lock it.
[0008] Furthermore, the pressure cover plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the hydraulic box by four pressure bolts, and the center cover plate is fixed to the top surface of the hydraulic box by five countersunk bolts.
[0009] When in use, the pressure cover is locked by four pressure bolts, and the center cover is locked by five countersunk bolts, thereby increasing the installation strength of the annular steel pipe and preventing oil from entering the gap between the annular steel pipe and the annular groove.
[0010] Furthermore, the oil supply device includes a hydraulic pump fixedly installed on the side wall of the fixed arm, an oil pump pipe is provided at the output end of the hydraulic pump, the input end of the hydraulic pump is connected to the hydraulic oil tank, an oil supply valve is provided on the top side wall of the annular steel pipe, and the end of the oil pump pipe is connected to the oil supply valve.
[0011] When in use, the oil pump pipe draws the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic oil tank and transports the hydraulic oil to the inside of the annular steel pipe through the oil pump pipe. Every time the device fails, the staff does not need to check which hydraulic pump has the problem. The use of one oil pump in this device also reduces the number of oil pressure pipelines. Compared with the lifting device of the prior art, each hydraulic rod of the previous lifting device needs to be equipped with a hydraulic pump. If the device fails, it needs to be shut down to check which hydraulic pump has the problem. The failure rate of the oil pressure pipeline of this device is relatively low, and there is only one hydraulic pump, which can improve the maintenance efficiency in the event of a failure.
[0012] Furthermore, the angle control mechanism includes a fixed servo motor, a slot frame is provided at the output end of the servo motor, the oil supply valve is inserted into the inside of the slot frame, a motor loading port is provided in the middle of the hydraulic box, the servo motor is loaded inside the motor loading port, a motor avoidance port is provided in the middle of the center cover plate, and the servo motor passes through the middle of the motor avoidance port.
[0013] When in use, the servo motor drives the notch frame to rotate one unit of angle each time, and the notch frame drives the oil supply valve and the annular steel pipe to rotate until the docking port is aligned with one of the forked ports.
[0014] Furthermore, the diameter of the oil supply valve is smaller than the width of the gap between the pressure cover plate and the center cover plate.
[0015] When in use, the annular gap between the pressure cover plate and the center cover plate is used to provide torsional space for the oil supply valve.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of the present application have the following beneficial effects: First, when the device is in use, the hydraulic pump applies oil pressure to the annular steel pipe through the oil pump pipe. At this time, the servo motor drives the slot frame to rotate one unit angle each time. The slot frame drives the oil supply valve and the annular steel pipe to rotate until the docking port is aligned with one of the forks. The oil pressure output by the annular steel pipe can be transmitted through the docking port and the fork at this position. Each fork corresponds to a hydraulic valve. When the docking port is rotated to align with the hydraulic valve at the position of the boom hydraulic pipe, the boom hydraulic press starts working to lift up the boom of the cantilever beam. When the docking port is rotated to align with the hydraulic valve at the position of the forearm hydraulic pipe, the forearm hydraulic press starts working to lift up the forearm of the cantilever beam. The hydraulic system of this process only needs one hydraulic pump to drive the oil pressure. Every time the device fails, the staff does not need to check which hydraulic pump has a problem, and the use of one oil pump in the device also reduces the number of oil pressure pipelines.
[0017] Secondly, the remaining six groups of forks and corresponding hydraulic valves are not used. If the crane is equipped with other devices that require hydraulic drive, a hydraulic valve will be activated and a hydraulic oil pipe will be connected to output hydraulic pressure.
