[0002] For the oil return device, in order to prevent the hydraulic oil from bringing impurities into the oil tank during the oil return process, a filter is installed in the oil return pipeline. However, the oil flow direction of the traditional oil return filter glass fiber filter element is from outside to inside, such as Figure 1 As shown, the oil tank is the filter housing, which requires pressure-resistant structural strength; and there are pollutants deposited in the oil return area, and once the filter element is replaced, the oil needs to be drained and thoroughly cleaned; after the one-way conduction device is turned on, the pollutants directly enter the oil suction area, and the oil suction area also needs to be drained and cleaned after the filter element is replaced. The oil suction filter is a negative pressure form, so the filtration accuracy is low and the filtration area is large. In order to solve the above problems, we proposed an oil return filter and an oil tank using it. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in 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.

[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the filter of this embodiment includes a cylindrical return oil filter element 1 and a protective filter element 2 longitudinally connected to the bottom of the return oil filter element 1, and a connecting component 11 is arranged between the return oil filter element 1 and the protective filter element 2, and the connecting component 11 is connected to the one-way conduction device 3.

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the connecting member 11 is a "J"-shaped structure, including an outer mounting portion and a middle conducting portion, the cross section of the mounting portion is an I-shaped structure, the return oil filter element 1 and the protection filter element 2 are respectively nested in the mounting grooves 111 on the upper and lower sides, and the mounting grooves 111 are tightly connected to the connection of the filter element to prevent leakage of oil from the return oil filter element 1 to the protection filter element 2. The conducting portion of the connecting member 11 is fixedly connected to the one-way conducting device 3 by bolts 34, and a dirt accumulation area 5 is formed between the two sides of the conducting portion and the return oil filter element 1.

[0024] A layer of 10 μm filter material is arranged on the top surface of the connecting member 11, and an oil inlet hole 112 is opened on the top surface of the conducting part around the central bolt hole. After the one-way conducting device 3 is opened, the oil is first filtered by the filter material on the top surface of the connecting member 11, and then enters the protective filter element 2 through the oil inlet hole 112 on the top surface of the conducting part of the connecting member 11.

[0025] like Figure 3As shown, the one-way conductive device 3 includes a spring 31 with an inverted cone structure, which is connected to the connecting member 11 by bolts. The larger side of the bottom surface of the spring 31 is fitted with the inner top surface of the conductive part of the connecting member 11, and a spacer 32 is arranged at the fitting position. A spacer 2 33 is arranged above the bottom nut to support the spring 31. The spacer 1 32 blocks the oil inlet hole 112 on the connecting member 11 under the action of the spring 31. The sensitivity of the one-way conductive device 3 can be adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the bottom nut.

[0026] The return oil filter element 1 and the protection filter element 2 are fixedly connected by the filter element axial load pull rod 4. The oil is connected from the top of the return oil filter element 1, and the oil is filtered from the inside of the return oil filter element 1 to the outside through the oil pressure. After the return oil filter element 1 has worked for a period of time, the return oil filter element 1 will intercept impurities inside the filter element and precipitate them in the dirt accumulation area 5. When the oil flow rate of the return oil filter element 1 gradually decreases during use, causing the internal oil pressure to increase, the one-way conduction device 3 is opened under the push of the oil pressure, and the protection filter element 2 is activated at this time.

[0027] The filter material of the return oil filter element 1 is 10μm glass fiber filter material, and the filter material of the protection filter element 2 is 50μm stainless steel filter material. 10μm glass fiber filter material is also used at the connection between the bottom of the return oil filter element 1 and the connecting mechanism 11. Even after the one-way conduction device 3 is turned on, the filtered impurities in the return oil filter element 1 will not flow into the protection filter element 2.

[0028] like Figure 5 The embodiment shown also provides an oil tank, the oil tank adopts the above-mentioned return oil filter inside, the oil tank shell 6 is provided with a filter oil chamber 65 and an oil storage chamber 66 in parallel, the side wall of the filter oil chamber 65 is provided with a bubble removal partition 8, the filter oil chamber 65 is provided with a return oil filter, the side of the oil tank shell 6 is provided with a return oil port 61, the return oil port 61 is connected to the upper end of the return oil filter element 1 through a connecting pipe 7, the top of the oil tank shell 6 is provided with an oil tank cover 63 corresponding to the filter oil chamber 65, the oil tank cover 63 is provided with a breathing valve 64, and the bottom of the oil tank shell 6 is provided with an oil suction port 62. The opening of the return oil filter element 1 on the return oil filter is connected to the return oil port 61 through a connecting pipe 7, and quick-release chucks 71 are provided at both ends of the connecting pipe 7 to facilitate the replacement of the filter.

[0029] The working method is:

[0030] like Figure 5As shown, the oil enters the return oil filter element 1 at the upper part of the return oil filter through the return oil port 61 and the connecting pipe 7. After the oil enters the return oil filter element 1, it flows into the filter oil chamber 65 through the filter from the inside of the return oil filter element 1 under the action of oil pressure. When the oil level in the filter oil chamber 65 rises to the highest point of the bubble removal baffle 8, it flows into the oil storage chamber 66. The oil suction port 62 set at the bottom of the oil storage chamber 66 discharges the oil. The impurities in the oil are first filtered through the return oil filter element 1 to the dirt accumulation area 5. The filtered oil is deposited in the filter oil chamber 65 as sediment to the bottom of the filter oil chamber 65. After the filter oil chamber 65 reaches an overflowing state, the bubble removal baffle 8 also completes the removal of the oil bubbles in the filter oil chamber 65.

[0031] As the amount of oil filtered by the return oil filter element 1 increases, the permeability of the oil in the filter material decreases, causing the internal oil pressure of the return oil filter element 1 to gradually increase. At this time, the pressure pushes the one-way conduction device 3 to open, and the oil enters the protective filter element 2 and then releases the pressure, preventing the return oil filter element 1 from being damaged due to excessive internal pressure and leaking unfiltered oil. At this time, the user can judge that the return oil filter element 1 has reached the maximum service life based on the external pressure gauge, so that the filter element can be replaced in time.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
