Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to tractor gearbox especially for tractor gearbox's multi -stop AMT valve block assembly. BACKGROUND

[0002] The gearbox is the core component of the tractor, and its performance has an important influence on the power performance, operation efficiency and economy of the tractor. At present, the traditional tractor usually adopts meshing sleeve shifting or synchronizer shifting gearbox, which realizes the shifting function through complex mechanical transmission, and the driver's operation is cumbersome. The power shift gearbox controls the combination and disconnection of multiple wet clutches and synchronizers through a hydraulic control system, and realizes the shifting function through different clutch and synchronizer combinations. Compared with the traditional gearbox, the power shift gearbox simplifies the shifting operation, has simple overall arrangement, compact structure, easy operation and high transmission efficiency, greatly improves the overall operation efficiency of the vehicle and reduces the labor intensity of the driver.

[0003] The power shift gearbox usually consists of a power shift main gearbox, a power shift auxiliary gearbox, a wet brake rear axle and a PTO. Among them, the design of the power shift auxiliary gearbox selection shift valve block assembly is related to the shifting quality, durability and safety of the gearbox, and is the key to the design of the power shift gearbox. Although Chinese patent CN216555309U discloses a harvesting machinery electro-hydraulic control shift gearbox, it belongs to the field of harvesting machinery, and the shift adopts a three-position four-way reversing valve. The three-position four-way reversing valve takes into account two oil cylinders, which cannot maintain pressure when reversing in the middle position, and thus the selection shift door has only two, which cannot realize multi-position shifting. Chinese patent CN213512025U discloses an automatic transmission electro-hydraulic control valve, but it is a selection shift valve block structure of the power shift main gearbox and does not involve the power shift auxiliary gearbox selection shift valve block. At present, the power shift auxiliary gearbox of the tractor does not separately set the valve block, and it usually directly sets the oil channel on the power shift auxiliary gearbox and installs the electromagnetic valve and the shift operating mechanism, but this way is affected by the material and preparation process of the power shift auxiliary gearbox, greatly increasing the machining difficulty of the power shift auxiliary gearbox shell, and thus reducing its machining precision.

[0059] As shown in Figure 3As shown, the upper end of the shift shaft 24 has a slot along the direction of movement of the select piston 23. The middle portion of the shift knob 19 is secured to the middle portion of the select shaft 25 via a retaining ring 20, with its upper end embedded in the slot of the shift shaft 24. The displacement direction of the shift piston 22 is defined as the X-axis, and the displacement direction of the select piston 23 is defined as the Y-axis. When the shift piston 22 moves along the X-axis, it drives the select piston 23 to rotate along the Y-axis via the shift knob 19, achieving gear shifting.

The oil return ports of the first shift proportional solenoid valve 7, the second shift proportional solenoid valve 8, the first gear selection proportional solenoid valve 9, and the second gear selection proportional solenoid valve 10 are respectively connected to the external oil tank 11 through corresponding oil circuits, so that the oil in the hydraulic system can flow back to the external oil tank 11.

[0061] In addition, the embodiment is provided with two-position four-way electromagnetic reversing valve 5, first reversing valve pressure sensor 1 and second reversing valve pressure sensor 3. The side wall of valve block 0 is further provided with first pressure oil port 2 and second pressure oil port 4 which are communicated with other mechanisms of external gearbox, the oil inlet of two-position four-way electromagnetic reversing valve 5 is communicated with total oil inlet 6 through corresponding oil path, and the two oil outlets are respectively communicated with first pressure oil port 2 and second pressure oil port 3 through corresponding oil path. First reversing valve pressure sensor 1 is installed on the oil path between two-position four-way electromagnetic reversing valve 5 and first pressure oil port 2, and second reversing valve pressure sensor 3 is installed on the oil path between two-position four-way electromagnetic reversing valve 5 and second pressure oil port 4, for monitoring the pressure state of the corresponding oil path respectively. The oil return port of two-position four-way electromagnetic reversing valve 5 is communicated with external oil tank 11 through corresponding oil path.

[0062] Gear state monitoring mechanism includes first gear shifting pressure sensor 12, second gear shifting pressure sensor 13, first gear selection pressure sensor 16, second gear selection pressure sensor 17, position sensor 18 and pressure switch 21.

At this time, the pressure contact 211 of the pressure switch 21 will be in contact with one side of the arc-shaped slot 191 of the shift knob 19, so that the pressure switch 21 completes the monitoring of the movement state of the shift piston 23. When the state of the pressure switch 21 is 0-1-0, it indicates that the pressure switch 21 is triggered, wherein 0 indicates that the switch is off, 1 indicates that the switch is on, and 0-1-0 indicates that the pressure switch 21 is triggered and the final state is off.

[0065] As shown in Figure 5 , a gear position diagram for realizing five-gear control in the embodiment is shown. The position of the shift piston 23 after being displaced in the negative direction of the Y-axis is recorded as the gate 1 position, the position of the shift piston 23 when no displacement occurs is recorded as the gate 2 position, and the position of the shift piston 23 after being displaced in the positive direction of the Y-axis is recorded as the gate 3 position.

[0075] As Figure 6As shown, this embodiment shows a multi-speed AMT valve block assembly for a tractor transmission, used to control third and fourth gears. This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that it has only one gear select cylinder 15. Accordingly, it has only the first gear select proportional solenoid valve 9 and the first gear select pressure sensor 16, but no second gear select proportional solenoid valve 10 and second gear select pressure sensor 17, for controlling third and fourth gears. In this embodiment, a gear select shaft 25 is attached to one end of the gear select piston 23 within the gear select cylinder 15, and a compression spring is interposed between the other end of the gear select piston 23 and the inner wall of the gear select piston cavity. The remaining structure of this embodiment is identical to that of the first embodiment.

[0076] Since a shift select piston 23 has only one oil inlet circuit, the pressure oil entering the shift select cylinder 15 can only push the shift select piston 23 to move in the positive direction of the Y axis. Therefore, the present invention pushes the shift select piston 23 to move in the negative direction of the Y axis by the spring force of the compression spring arranged between the shift select piston 23 and the inner wall of the shift select piston cavity.

[0077] like Figure 7 As shown, this is a schematic diagram of the gear positions for realizing four-gear control in this embodiment. The position of the gear selector piston 23 after negative displacement along the Y-axis is recorded as the door 1 position, and the position of the gear selector piston 23 after positive displacement along the Y-axis is recorded as the door 2 position. At the same time, the position of the shift piston 22 after positive displacement along the X-axis is recorded as the low-gear position, the position of the shift piston 22 when it is not displaced is recorded as the neutral position, and the position of the shift piston 22 after negative displacement along the X-axis is recorded as the high-gear position.

[0078] When there is no pressure oil in the selector cylinder 15, the selector piston 23 is displaced to the door 1 position under the spring force of the compression spring. If the shift piston 22 is displaced to the low gear position at this time, the gear state is synchronizer 1 gear; when the selector piston 23 is displaced to the door 1 position and the shift piston 22 is displaced to the high gear position, the gear state is synchronizer 2 gear; when pressure oil is introduced into the selector cylinder 15, the selector piston 23 is pushed to the door 2 position. If the shift piston 22 is displaced to the low gear position at this time, the gear state is synchronizer 3 gear; when the selector piston 23 is displaced to the door 2 position and the shift cylinder piston 22 is displaced to the high gear position, the gear state is synchronizer 4 gear; in addition, as long as the shift piston 22 is displaced to the neutral position, the gear state is synchronizer neutral. The specific steps for shifting gears are as follows:

[0079] (1) Synchronizer Neutral: Control current is applied to the first and second shift ratio solenoid valves 7 and 8, respectively. This creates a pressure differential on the outsides of the two shift cylinders 14, pushing the shift piston 22 to the neutral position. If the monitoring values ​​of the first and second shift pressure sensors 12 and 13 are consistent with their corresponding neutral pressure target values, and the monitoring value of the position sensor 18 is consistent with its corresponding neutral position target value, the gear position is in neutral.

[0080] (2) Synchronizer 1 : No control current is applied to the first gear selection proportional solenoid valve 9, and the gear selection piston 23 moves to the gate 1 position under the spring force of the compression spring. If the monitoring value of the first gear selection pressure sensor 16 is 0, the pressure switch is triggered, indicating that the gear selection position is gate 1. Then, a control current is applied to the second gear shifting proportional solenoid valve 8, and pressure is formed inside the gear shifting cylinder 14 connected to the oil outlet of the second gear shifting proportional solenoid valve 8, pushing the gear shifting piston 22 to move to the low gear position. At this time, the gear shifting knob 19 rotates around the Y axis, pushing the gear shifting yoke in the tractor gearbox to move, and the gear shifting is completed. If the monitoring value of the second gear shifting pressure sensor 13 is consistent with the low gear pressure target value corresponding thereto, and the monitoring value of the position sensor 18 is consistent with the low gear position target value corresponding thereto, it indicates that the gear position is synchronizer 1.

[0081] (3) Synchronizer 2 : No control current is applied to the first gear selection proportional solenoid valve 9, and the gear selection piston 23 moves to the gate 1 position under the spring force of the compression spring. If the monitoring value of the first gear selection pressure sensor 16 is 0, the pressure switch is triggered, indicating that the gear selection position is gate 1. Then, a control current is applied to the first gear shifting proportional solenoid valve 7, and pressure is formed inside the gear shifting cylinder 14 connected to the oil outlet of the first gear shifting proportional solenoid valve 7, pushing the gear shifting piston 22 to move to the high gear position. At this time, the gear shifting knob 19 rotates around the Y axis, pushing the gear shifting yoke in the tractor gearbox to move, and the gear shifting is completed. If the monitoring value of the first gear shifting pressure sensor 12 is consistent with the high gear pressure target value corresponding thereto, and the monitoring value of the position sensor 18 is consistent with the high gear position target value corresponding thereto, it indicates that the gear position is synchronizer 2.

[0082] (4) Synchronizer 3 : A control current is first applied to the first gear selection proportional solenoid valve 9, and pressure oil is introduced into the gear selection cylinder 15, pushing the gear selection piston 23 to move to the gate 2 position. If the monitoring value of the first gear selection pressure sensor 16 is consistent with the target value, the pressure switch is triggered, indicating that the gear selection position is gate 2. Then, a control current is applied to the second gear shifting proportional solenoid valve 8, and pressure is formed inside the gear shifting cylinder 14 connected to the oil outlet of the second gear shifting proportional solenoid valve 8, pushing the gear shifting piston 22 to move to the low gear position. At this time, the gear shifting knob 19 rotates around the Y axis, pushing the gear shifting yoke in the tractor gearbox to move, and the gear shifting is completed. If the monitoring value of the second gear shifting pressure sensor 13 is consistent with the low gear pressure target value corresponding thereto, and the monitoring value of the position sensor 18 is consistent with the low gear position target value corresponding thereto, it indicates that the gear position is synchronizer 3.

[0083] (5) Synchronizer 4th gear: first, the first gear selector proportional solenoid valve 9 is applied to the control current, the inside of the gear selector cylinder 15 is connected to the pressure oil, the gear selector piston 23 is pushed to move to the door 2 position. If the first gear selector pressure sensor 16 monitoring value is consistent with the target value, the pressure switch is triggered, indicating that the gear selection position is door 2. Then the first gear shift proportional solenoid valve 7 is applied to the control current, and the gear shift proportional solenoid valve 7 is connected to the oil outlet. The inside of the gear shift cylinder 14 forms a pressure, and the gear shift piston 22 is pushed to move to the high gear position. At this time, the gear shift knob 19 rotates around the Y axis, and the gear shift yoke in the tractor gearbox is pushed to move, and the gear shift is completed. If the monitoring value of the first gear shift pressure sensor 12 is consistent with the high gear pressure target value corresponding to the first gear shift pressure sensor 12, and the monitoring value of the position sensor 18 is consistent with the high gear position target value corresponding to the position sensor 18, it is indicated that the gear position is synchronizer 4th gear.
