[0030] The core of the present utility model lies in disclosing a combined hydraulic cylinder to improve work efficiency.

[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, the embodiment of the present utility model discloses a combined hydraulic cylinder, including a first hydraulic cylinder 10, a second hydraulic cylinder 20, and a third hydraulic cylinder 30.

[0033] As Figure 2 shown, the first hydraulic cylinder 10, the third hydraulic cylinder 30, and the second hydraulic cylinder 20 are coaxially arranged, and the third hydraulic cylinder 30 is arranged between the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20. As Figure 1As shown in the figure, the first hydraulic cylinder 10 includes a first cavity 11 that houses a working medium and a first piston rod 12 disposed within the first cavity 11. A first piston 13 is provided on the first piston rod 12. The second hydraulic cylinder 20 includes a second cavity 21 that houses a working medium and a second piston rod 22 disposed within the second cavity 21. A second piston 23 is provided on the second piston rod 22.

[0034] The third hydraulic cylinder 30 includes a third piston rod 31. A third piston 311 is provided on the third piston rod 31. The third piston rod 31 is respectively connected to the first piston rod 12 and the second piston rod 22, and the third piston rod 31 can reciprocate along the axial direction, that is, the third piston rod 31 can move in the direction close to the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and close to the second hydraulic cylinder 20. The moving direction of the third piston rod 31 shown in the figure is the left-right direction.

[0035] When the third piston rod 31 moves leftward as shown in the figure, it can drive the first piston rod 12 to move leftward, thereby pressurizing the working medium in the first cavity 11; when the third piston rod 31 moves rightward as shown in the figure, it can drive the second piston rod 22 to move rightward, thereby pressurizing the working medium in the second cavity 11.

[0036] The first piston rod 12, the second piston rod 22, and the third piston rod 31 can be of an integral structure or a split structure. Preferably, they are of an integral structure. The first piston 13 and the second piston 23 are disposed at both ends of the third piston rod 31, and the third piston 311 is disposed between the first piston 13 and the second piston 23 and is located within the third hydraulic cylinder 30, forming a three-piston structure.

[0037] The combined hydraulic cylinder disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention adopts a three-piston structure. By the reciprocating movement of the third piston rod 31, it drives the first piston rod 12 and the second piston rod 22 to reciprocate, and can continuously pressurize the working medium in the first cavity 11 and the second cavity 21. It can reduce energy consumption, improve work efficiency, save space, and be environmentally friendly and energy-saving. At the same time, compared with the prior art of pressurizing the working medium by using a high-pressure plunger pump or a multistage centrifugal pump, the structure of using the combined hydraulic cylinder is simpler, can improve efficiency, enhance the stability and reliability of the system, and reduce the need for maintenance.

[0038] Such as Figure 1As shown, the third hydraulic cylinder 30 includes a third cavity 32 and a fourth cavity 33. The third piston 311 separates the third cavity 32 and the fourth cavity 33. The third piston rod 31 passes through the third cavity 32 and the fourth cavity 33. Both the third cavity 32 and the fourth cavity 33 are connected to the hydraulic system. The hydraulic system supplies a transmission medium to the third cavity 32 and the fourth cavity 33 to push the third piston 311 to move, thereby driving the first piston rod 12 and the second piston rod 22 to move. The transmission medium is preferably hydraulic oil.

[0039] In some specific embodiments, the third hydraulic cylinder 30 is provided with a first interface and a second interface connected to the hydraulic system. The first interface is connected to the third cavity 32, and the second interface is connected to the fourth cavity 33. The first interface and the second interface are respectively connected to the hydraulic system. When the third piston rod 31 needs to move in the direction close to the first hydraulic cylinder 10 (shown as moving to the left in the figure), the transmission medium in the hydraulic system enters the fourth cavity 33, thereby pushing the third piston rod 31 to move in the direction close to the first hydraulic cylinder 10, and the transmission medium in the third cavity 32 flows out. When the third piston rod 31 needs to move in the direction close to the second hydraulic cylinder 20 (shown as moving to the right in the figure), the transmission medium in the hydraulic system enters the third cavity 32, thereby pushing the third piston rod 31 to move in the direction close to the second hydraulic cylinder 20, and the transmission medium in the fourth cavity 33 flows out. By setting a reversing valve on the hydraulic system, the switching between the first interface and the second interface is realized. Here, the switching means that one of the first interface and the second interface is for liquid inlet and the other is for liquid outlet.

[0040] In some specific embodiments, the combined hydraulic cylinder includes a controller. Under the action of the controller, the switching between the first interface and the second interface can be realized. Specifically, it can be switched according to the set time, or can be switched according to the positions of the first piston rod 12 and the second piston rod 22. In some specific embodiments, at least one of the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20 is provided with a magnetostrictive displacement sensor 40. The magnetostrictive displacement sensor 40 is electrically connected to the reversing valve of the hydraulic system. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the magnetostrictive displacement sensor 40 is arranged on the first hydraulic cylinder 10. The arrangement of the magnetostrictive displacement sensor 40 can detect the position of the first piston rod 12 at any time and transmit the detected position information to the controller. The controller can control the reversing action of the reversing valve according to the detected position information. The setting of the controller can realize the digitalization of the movement displacement of the combined hydraulic cylinder.

[0041] In some specific embodiments, the first hydraulic cylinder 10, the third hydraulic cylinder 30, and the second hydraulic cylinder 20 are connected in sequence. Specifically, it can be by a detachable connection method, such as connected by a flange, or can be by a non-detachable connection method, such as a welding connection method. The detachable connection method is preferred for convenient maintenance.

[0042] In the combined hydraulic cylinder disclosed in the embodiment of the present utility model, the working medium in the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20 includes, but is not limited to, water, polymer, and slurry, and may also be other liquids. The types of the working medium in the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20 may be the same or different, and are specifically determined according to actual requirements. When the working media are different, the combined hydraulic cylinder can be used to boost different media.

[0043] Further, a first liquid inlet and a second liquid outlet are provided on the first hydraulic cylinder 10, and check valves are provided on both the first liquid inlet and the first liquid outlet. A second liquid inlet and a second liquid outlet are provided on the second hydraulic cylinder 20, and check valves are provided on both the second liquid inlet and the second liquid outlet. The check valves can prevent the backflow of the working medium.

[0044] Further, air release and evacuation valves are provided on both the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20 to remove the gas in the working medium and ensure the normal operation of the system. In order to filter out the solid impurities in the working medium and ensure the normal operation of the system, hydraulic filters are provided on both the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20. At the same time, in order to discharge the overflowing working medium in the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20, overflow pipes are also provided on the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20, which can centralize the overflow water. When the working medium is water, water discharge ports are also provided on the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20.

[0045] In the combined hydraulic cylinder disclosed in the embodiment of the present utility model, a sealing structure is provided between the first hydraulic cylinder 10 and the third hydraulic cylinder 30, and between the third hydraulic cylinder 30 and the second hydraulic cylinder 20. The sealing structure can prevent the leakage of the working medium.

[0046] It should be noted that each embodiment in this specification is described in a progressive manner. The key point of each embodiment is to illustrate the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts among the embodiments can be referred to each other.
