At this time, the one-way valve inside the load control valve 2 is in a cut-off state, and the goods cannot be lowered, realizing the load holding state. When descending energy recovery is performed, the pilot oil enters the first pilot oil circuit 1G from the first pilot oil port LS. At this time, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, and the pilot oil passes through the second pilot oil circuit 1C to push the load control valve 2, so that the load control valve 2 opens. At this time, the hydraulic oil enters the fourth pilot oil port B from the third pilot oil port A to enter the motor, driving the motor to rotate, thereby driving the motor to recover energy.

In one embodiment of the utility model, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is a two-position two-way solenoid valve. When the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is not energized, the pilot pressure oil is blocked outside and cannot enter the first pilot oil circuit LS to push the valve core. After the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, the first pilot oil circuit LS is opened.

[0053] In this embodiment, considering that different currents will lead to different control output pressures, in the present utility model, the system further includes a proportional pressure reducing valve 4, a first end of the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 is connected to the second pilot oil port 2Y to form a third pilot oil circuit 1G, a second end of the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 is connected to the second end of the load control valve 2 to form a fourth pilot oil circuit 1F, and a third end of the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 is connected to the second oil drain hole T. When the pilot oil enters the proportional pressure reducing valve 4, the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 determines the output pressure according to the current, thereby controlling the opening size of the load control valve 2 to control its descending speed.

[0054] In this embodiment, the structure of the load control valve 2 can be various known to those skilled in the art. In one embodiment of the present utility model, the load control valve 2 includes a first load control valve 21 and a second load control valve 22, wherein a first end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to one end of the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F to form a fifth pilot oil circuit 1G, a second end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to the fifth pilot oil port A1 to form a sixth pilot oil circuit 1H, and a third end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to the seventh pilot oil port A2 to form a sixth pilot oil circuit 1H. The oil port B1 is connected to form the seventh pilot oil circuit 1J, the fourth end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to the first oil drain hole Y; the first end of the second load control valve 22 is connected to the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F to form the eighth pilot oil circuit 1K, the second end of the second load control valve 22 is connected to the sixth pilot oil port A2 to form the ninth pilot oil circuit 1L, the third end of the second load control valve 22 is connected to the eighth pilot oil port B2 to form the tenth pilot oil circuit 1W, and the fourth end of the second load control valve 22 is connected to the first oil drain hole Y.

The second pilot oil circuit 1C includes the third pilot oil circuit 1D and the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F.

[0055] In this embodiment, the other end of the first pilot oil port LS is connected to the pilot oil source, and the other end of the third pilot oil port A is connected to the lifting cylinder.

[0056] When the fork is lifting the cargo and is not moving, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 and the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 shall not be energized. Due to the cut-off effect of the one-way valves in the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22, the hydraulic oil cannot return from the oil ports of other oil circuits. At this time, the hydraulic oil can only enter the fifth pilot oil port A1 and the sixth pilot oil port A2. At this time, the one-way valves in the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22 are in the cut-off state, and the cargo cannot be lowered. Therefore, the load holding state can be achieved. When descending energy recovery is performed, the pilot pressure oil enters the first pilot oil circuit 1A from the first pilot oil port LS. At this time, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, and the pilot oil passes through the third pilot oil circuit 1D from the second pilot oil port 2Y to the proportional pressure reducing valve 4. The proportional pressure reducing valve 4 determines the size of the output pressure according to the size of the current. The pilot hydraulic oil output by the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 passes through the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F to push the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22, so that the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22 are opened. At this time, the valve cores of the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22 have been opened under the action of the pilot hydraulic oil output by the proportional pressure reducing valve 4. The hydraulic oil in the lifting cylinder enters the sixth pilot oil circuit 1H and the ninth pilot oil circuit 1L from the fifth pilot oil port A1 and the sixth pilot oil port A2, and then enters the seventh pilot oil port B1 and the eighth pilot oil port B2 through the seventh pilot oil circuit 1J and the tenth pilot oil circuit 1W, and enters the motor, pushing the motor to rotate and drive the motor to recover energy.

[0057] In addition, the utility model also includes an energy recovery and load holding valve block for an electric forklift, such as Figures 3 to 8 As shown, the valve block includes a pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1, a load control valve 2, an energy recovery pipeline 3 and a valve body 5, wherein one end of the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is connected to one end of the first pilot oil port LS to form a first pilot oil circuit 1G, and the other end of the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is connected to one end of the second pilot oil port 2Y; the first end of the load control valve 2 is connected to the other end of the second pilot oil port 2Y to form a second pilot oil circuit 1C, and the second end of the load control valve 2 is connected to the third pilot oil port A, and the load control The third end of the valve 2 is connected to the fourth pilot oil port B, and the fourth end of the load control valve 2 is connected to the first oil drain hole Y; one end of the energy recovery pipeline 3 is connected to the fourth pilot oil port B, and the other end of the energy recovery pipeline 3 is connected to the motor; the top surface of the valve body 5 is provided with a pilot oil source switch solenoid valve interface, a load control valve interface and an energy recovery pipeline interface, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve interface is connected to the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1, the load control valve interface is connected to the load control valve 2, and the energy recovery pipeline interface is connected to the energy recovery pipeline 3.

[0058] When the fork lifts the goods and does not move, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is not energized, and the hydraulic oil can only enter from the third pilot oil port A. At this time, the one-way valve inside the load control valve 2 is in the cut-off state, and the goods cannot be lowered, so the load is kept in the state. When the energy recovery is performed during the descent, the pilot oil enters the first pilot oil circuit 1G from the first pilot oil port LS. At this time, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, and the pilot oil passes through the second pilot oil circuit 1C to push the load control valve 2, so that the load control valve 2 opens. At this time, the hydraulic oil enters the fourth pilot oil port B from the third pilot oil port A to enter the motor, drive the motor to rotate, and thus drive the motor to recover energy.

[0059] In this embodiment, the type of the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 can be a variety known to those skilled in the art. In one embodiment of the utility model, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is a two-position two-way solenoid valve. When the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is not energized, the pilot pressure oil is blocked outside and cannot enter the first pilot oil circuit LS to push the valve core. After the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, the first pilot oil circuit LS is opened.

[0060] In this embodiment, considering that different currents will lead to different control output pressures, in the present utility model, the system further includes a proportional pressure reducing valve 4, a first end of the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 is connected to the second pilot oil port 2Y to form a third pilot oil circuit 1G, a second end of the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 is connected to the second end of the load control valve 2 to form a fourth pilot oil circuit 1F, and a third end of the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 is connected to the second oil drain hole T. When the pilot oil enters the proportional pressure reducing valve 4, the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 determines the output pressure according to the current, thereby controlling the opening size of the load control valve 2 to control its descending speed.

[0061] In this embodiment, the structure of the load control valve 2 can be various known to those skilled in the art. In one embodiment of the present utility model, the load control valve 2 includes a first load control valve 21 and a second load control valve 22, wherein a first end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to one end of the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F to form a fifth pilot oil circuit 1G, a second end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to the fifth pilot oil port A1 to form a sixth pilot oil circuit 1H, and a third end of the first load control valve 21 is connected to the seventh pilot oil port A2 to form a sixth pilot oil circuit 1H.

The second pilot oil circuit 1C includes the third pilot oil circuit 1D and the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F.

[0062] In this embodiment, the other end of the first pilot oil port LS is connected to the pilot oil source, and the other end of the third pilot oil port A is connected to the lifting cylinder.

[0063] When the fork is lifting the cargo and is not moving, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 and the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 shall not be energized. Due to the cut-off effect of the one-way valves in the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22, the hydraulic oil cannot return from the oil ports of other oil circuits. At this time, the hydraulic oil can only enter the fifth pilot oil port A1 and the sixth pilot oil port A2. At this time, the one-way valves in the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22 are in the cut-off state, and the cargo cannot be lowered. Therefore, the load holding state can be achieved. When descending energy recovery is performed, the pilot pressure oil enters the first pilot oil circuit 1A from the first pilot oil port LS. At this time, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, and the pilot oil passes through the third pilot oil circuit 1D from the second pilot oil port 2Y to the proportional pressure reducing valve 4. The proportional pressure reducing valve 4 determines the size of the output pressure according to the size of the current. The pilot hydraulic oil output by the proportional pressure reducing valve 4 passes through the fourth pilot oil circuit 1F to push the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22, so that the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22 are opened. At this time, the valve cores of the first load control valve 21 and the second load control valve 22 have been opened under the action of the pilot hydraulic oil output by the proportional pressure reducing valve 4. The hydraulic oil in the lifting cylinder enters the sixth pilot oil circuit 1H and the ninth pilot oil circuit 1L from the fifth pilot oil port A1 and the sixth pilot oil port A2, and then enters the seventh pilot oil port B1 and the eighth pilot oil port B2 through the seventh pilot oil circuit 1J and the tenth pilot oil circuit 1W, and enters the motor, pushing the motor to rotate and drive the motor to recover energy.

[0064] Through the above technical solution, the utility model provides an energy recovery and load holding system and valve block for electric forklifts. When the cargo fork is lifting the cargo and is not moving, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is not energized, and the hydraulic oil can only enter from the third pilot oil port A. At this time, the one-way valve inside the load control valve 2 is in a cut-off state, and the cargo cannot be lowered, thereby realizing the load holding state. When descending energy recovery is performed, the pilot oil enters the first pilot oil circuit 1G from the first pilot oil port LS. At this time, the pilot oil source switch solenoid valve 1 is energized, and the pilot oil passes through the second pilot oil circuit 1C to push the load control valve 2, so that the load control valve 2 is opened. At this time, the hydraulic oil enters the fourth pilot oil port B from the third pilot oil port A to enter the motor, and push the motor to rotate, thereby driving the motor to recover energy. This system and valve block have a simple structure and high energy recovery efficiency. In the prior art, the load control valve 2 is placed in different valve bodies. Due to the difference in signal sources and the valve blocks themselves, the opening of the two valve blocks will be inconsistent, thereby affecting the synchronization performance of the lifting cylinder. In the utility model, the load control valve 2 is arranged in the same valve body, the load control valve 2 is always open, and the lifting cylinder has higher synchronization in controlling the load control valve 2.
