DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] A specific embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiment.
[0021] Example 1:
[0022] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a steering limit device for a loader includes a hydraulic oil tank 1, a gear pump 2, a steering gear 4, a steering limit valve, and a right steering cylinder 71 and a left steering cylinder 72. The steering limit valve is a two-way limit valve 5, which includes a right push rod 51 and a left push rod 52. The right push rod 51 and the left push rod 52 are respectively arranged corresponding to the right limit piece 81 and the left limit piece 82 to achieve respective matching limits. The two interface ends of the steering gear 4 are respectively connected to the two interface ends of the two-way limit valve 5, and the two-way limit valve 5 is respectively connected to the right steering cylinder 71 and the left steering cylinder 72.
[0023] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the right limit member 81 and the left limit member 82 are both "triangle" limit frames, which are respectively connected to the two sides of the front frame 9, and the two-way limit valve 5 is connected to the axis of the rear frame 10 and is correspondingly arranged thereto.
[0024] Specific, with particular reference Figure 2As shown, the technical solution adopted by the present application also proposes a two-way limit valve, the two-way limit valve 5 includes a valve body 53, a reversing valve core 54, a right pipeline group and a left pipeline group, the left and right sides of the reversing valve core 54 are respectively connected to the left push rod 52 and the right push rod 51, the right push rod 51 and the left push rod 52 are respectively reset by the right reset member 55 and the left reset member 56, the right reset member 55 and the left reset member 56 can both be reset springs, the right pipeline group includes a first right branch pipe 571 passing through the reversing valve core 54 and the first right branch pipe 57 1 is connected in parallel with the second right branch pipe 572. The two ends of the first right branch pipe 571 are respectively connected to the right steering cylinder 71 and the right interface of the two-way limit valve 5. The left pipeline group includes a first left branch pipe 581 passing through the reversing valve core 54 and a second left branch pipe 582 connected in parallel with the first left branch pipe 581. The two ends of the first left branch pipe 581 are respectively connected to the left steering cylinder 72 and the left interface of the two-way limit valve 5. The second right branch pipe 572 and the second left branch pipe 582 are respectively connected to the right check valve 59 and the left check valve 60. For specific connection methods, refer to Figure 1-2 The basic structural form and principle of this structure are basically the same as those of the right turn limit valve 5-1 and the left turn limit valve 5-2 in the existing structure, except that the left and right limits are simultaneously realized in one valve body 53, that is, the limit coordination in the left and right directions is realized. Through such an integrated design, the pipeline connection can be reduced, the system can be simplified, and the assembly and subsequent maintenance can be simplified.
[0025] Example 2:
[0026] On the basis of Example 1, especially combined with Figure 4 As shown, in order to meet the needs of large-tonnage loaders, a pressure reducing valve 3 and a flow amplifying valve 6 are added. This structural form is also available in the existing structure to meet the needs of large-tonnage loaders. The pressure reducing valve 3 is connected to the gear pump 2, the steering gear 4 and the hydraulic oil tank 1, and the flow amplifying valve 6 is connected to the two-way limit valve 5 and the left steering cylinder 72 and the right steering cylinder 71. The specific connection relationship can be referred to Figure 4 .
[0027] The working principle of this utility model is particularly referred to Figure 3-4As shown, when the loader turns right, the steering wheel is turned clockwise, and the pressure oil enters the oil inlet of the steering gear 4 through the pressure reducing valve 3. Then, as the steering wheel turns, the hydraulic oil first enters the b1 port of the two-way limit valve 5 through the R port of the steering gear 4, and then enters the b port of the pilot oil port of the flow amplification valve 6 through the b2 port of the steering limit valve. This pushes the reversing valve core of the flow amplification valve 6 to move, allowing the oil from the gear pump 2 to enter the rodless chamber of the left steering cylinder 72 and the rod chamber of the right steering cylinder 71, thereby achieving the right turn of the loader. When the loader turns to the limit position, the right push rod 51 at the right end of the two-way limit valve 5 flexibly contacts the right limit member 81, pushing the reversing valve core 54 of the two-way limit valve 5 from the left to the right position, cutting off the oil circuit between the R port of the steering gear 5 and the pilot b port of the flow amplification valve 6, causing the main oil circuit of the flow amplification valve 6 to drain oil, and steering stops. The impact of high-pressure oil on the steering cylinder is effectively avoided during the steering limit process.
[0028] The above disclosures are only a few specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
