[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a built-in oil circuit steering valve body of an embodiment of the utility model includes a valve body 1, in which an internal small oil channel 11 and an annular oil groove 12 are opened, and the internal small oil channel 11 is connected to the annular oil groove 12, and the internal small oil channel 11 and the annular oil groove 12 are both cast.

[0022] In this embodiment, the internal small oil passage 11 is directly cast when casting the valve body 1, thereby avoiding the problem of difficult processing of the internal small oil passage 11, and improving the situation that the steering gear will produce abnormal noise when the angle is too large or the aperture is too small. Secondly, the internal small oil passage 11 is directly cast and does not require processing, which reduces the production cost. In addition, by casting the annular oil groove 12, the oil storage area of ​​the valve body 1 can be increased, thereby increasing the oil storage capacity of the valve body 1.

[0023] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the built-in oil circuit steering valve body 1 also includes an adjusting piston 2 and a spring 3. An assembly groove 14 is also opened inside the valve body 1. The opening of the assembly groove 14 is communicated with the internal small oil channel 11. The spring 3 and the adjusting piston 2 are arranged in the assembly groove 14 in sequence. One end of the spring 3 is connected to the adjusting piston 2, and the other end of the spring 3 is connected to the bottom surface of the assembly groove 14. The adjusting piston 2 is slidably connected to the assembly groove 14, and the end of the adjusting piston 2 is used to extend into the internal small oil channel 11 to control the flow of the internal small oil channel 11.

[0024] Specifically, the extending direction of the assembly groove 14 is parallel to the axial direction of the valve body 1 .

[0025] In this embodiment, the internal small oil passage 11 is directly cast, which may cause the problem of too large an aperture of the internal small oil passage 11. If the aperture of the internal small oil passage 11 is too large, it is easy to cause too large a flow rate of hydraulic oil, which will lead to poor control of the hydraulic oil and make it difficult to ensure the stability of the steering gear.

[0026] By setting the adjusting piston 2 and the spring 3, the elastic force of the spring 3 is used to push the adjusting piston 2 to move in the assembly groove 14, which can drive the end of the adjusting piston 2 to extend into the internal small oil channel 11. By using the adjusting piston 2 to block a part of the aperture of the internal small oil channel 11, the flow of the internal small oil channel 11 can be reduced. Therefore, when the aperture of the internal small oil channel 11 directly cast is too large, the elastic force generated by the spring 3 pushes the end of the adjusting piston 2 to be inserted into the internal small oil channel 11, which can achieve the adjustment of the aperture size of the internal small oil channel 11, thereby improving the control accuracy of the hydraulic oil and ensuring the stability of the steering gear.

[0027] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the built-in oil circuit steering valve body 1 also includes an adjusting bolt 4, which is threadedly connected to the valve body 1, and the end of the adjusting bolt 4 is used to extend into the assembly groove 14 and connect with the adjusting piston 2.

[0028] In this embodiment, the spring 3 generates elastic force to push the regulating piston 2 into the internal small oil channel 11, but the hydraulic oil entering the internal small oil channel 11 will generate a force on the regulating piston 2, which can easily push the end of the regulating piston 2 back into the assembly groove 14.

[0029] By setting the adjusting bolt 4 and connecting it to the adjusting piston 2 through the assembly groove 14, the adjusting piston 2 can be positioned to prevent the hydraulic oil from pushing the adjusting piston 2 to move, thereby ensuring the effect of the adjusting piston 2 controlling the flow of the internal small oil channel 11.

[0030] Secondly, the adjusting bolt 4 is threadedly connected to the valve body 1. By loosening the adjusting bolt 4, the elastic force generated by the spring 3 can push the adjusting piston 2 to move toward the side close to the internal small oil channel 11. By tightening the adjusting bolt 4, the adjusting piston 2 can be fixed relative to the assembly groove 14, so that the distance by which the end of the adjusting piston 2 extends into the internal small oil channel 11 can be adjusted. Specifically, the smaller the extending distance, the larger the flow rate of the internal small oil channel 11, and the larger the extending distance, the smaller the flow rate of the internal small oil channel 11, which facilitates the flow control function of the adjusting piston 2 on the internal small oil channel 11.

[0031] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, a clamping groove 21 is provided on the outer side wall of the regulating piston 2 , and the end of the regulating bolt 4 is used to be inserted into the clamping groove 21 .

[0032] In this embodiment, by opening a clamping groove 21 on the outer wall of the adjusting piston 2, when tightening the adjusting bolt 4, the end of the adjusting bolt 4 can be inserted into the clamping groove 21, which facilitates the connection between the adjusting bolt 4 and the adjusting piston 2.

[0033] Optionally, a plurality of the clamping grooves 21 are provided, and the plurality of the clamping grooves 21 are distributed in sequence along the axial direction of the regulating piston 2 .

[0034] Specifically, the axial direction of the regulating piston 2 is parallel to the extending direction of the assembly groove 14 .

[0035] In this embodiment, by providing a plurality of snap-fit ​​grooves 21 and distributing the plurality of snap-fit ​​grooves 21 in sequence along the axial direction of the regulating piston 2, the regulating piston 2 can be controlled to be fixed at different positions relative to the assembly groove 14 by tightening the regulating bolt 4 and inserting the end of the regulating bolt 4 into different snap-fit ​​grooves 21, thereby controlling the distance that the end of the regulating piston 2 extends into the internal small oil channel 11, thereby ensuring the flow control effect of the regulating piston 2 on the internal small oil channel 11.

[0036] Alternatively, if Figure 2 As shown, the built-in oil circuit steering valve body 1 also includes a slider 5, which is connected to the outer wall of the regulating piston 2. A slide groove 13 is also provided in the valve body 1, and the extension direction of the slide groove 13 is parallel to the extension direction of the assembly groove 14. The slider 5 is slidably connected to the slide groove 13.

[0037] Specifically, the slider 5 is configured as a long strip structure.

[0038] In this embodiment, by providing a slider 5 and opening a slide groove 13 in the valve body 1, the slider 5 is slidably connected to the slide groove 13, so that the movement direction of the regulating piston 2 in the assembly groove 14 can be limited, thereby preventing the regulating piston 2 from being offset during the movement in the assembly groove 14, thereby avoiding the regulating piston 2 from being stuck during the movement, and ensuring the flow control effect of the regulating piston 2 on the internal small oil channel 11.

[0039] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
