Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve assembly technology, and in particular to a flushing valve assembly. Background Technology

[0002] When a hydraulic system is working, pressure loss, volumetric loss, and mechanical loss are all converted into heat energy, causing the oil temperature to rise. This is especially true in high-power closed-loop circuits, where the oil temperature tends to rise even higher over extended periods. The operating temperature of the hydraulic fluid affects the lifespan of the hydraulic oil and hydraulic components. Changes in oil temperature cause changes in oil viscosity, leading to instability in the mechanical system's movement speed. Therefore, it is essential to control the oil temperature within a certain range. In this case, reducing the hydraulic oil temperature and providing cooling is crucial. This application provides a flushing valve assembly that helps control the return oil cooling of the motor, allowing the oil temperature in the hydraulic system to return to normal and ensuring that the lifespan of the hydraulic oil and hydraulic components is not affected by oil temperature.

[0017] The present invention will be further described below by way of embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a flushing valve assembly. The flushing valve assembly includes a rectangular valve body 1, a low-pressure side shuttle valve 2 installed on the left side of the valve body 1, a return oil port 5 on the front side of the valve body 1, a first actuator interface 3 and a second actuator interface 4 on the rear side of the valve body 1, and a pressure measuring port 6 on the upper side of the valve body 1; wherein, the low-pressure side shuttle valve 2 includes a first working port 21, a second working port 22 and a common port 23, the first working port 21 is connected to the first actuator interface 3, the second working port 22 is connected to the second actuator interface 4, and the common port 23 is connected to the return oil port 5.

[0020] Pressure test port 6 is located between return port 5 and common port 23, and is used to measure the pressure at return port 5. An external pressure gauge can be connected to pressure test port 6, allowing customers to monitor the pressure value at return port 5 in real time, and better set the return back pressure according to customer pressure requirements.

[0021] The first actuator interface 3 is connected to the first motor, the second actuator interface 4 is connected to the second motor, and the oil return port 5 is connected to the oil cylinder.

[0022] Mounting holes 7 are four through holes located on the upper side of valve body 1; the low-pressure side shuttle valve 2 is a slide valve; valve body 1 is made of alloy steel. In this embodiment, the low-pressure side shuttle valve 2 has a floating structure, which can reduce interference caused by installation torque and errors in hole machining.

[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In the initial state, the low-pressure side shuttle valve 2 is in a normally closed state, that is, the first working port 21 and the second working port 22 of the low-pressure side shuttle valve 2 are not connected to the common port 23.

[0024] When hydraulic oil enters from the first actuator interface 3 (first motor), the high pressure will switch to the low pressure side shuttle valve 2. The low pressure side shuttle valve 2 is connected, that is, the second working port 22 of the low pressure side shuttle valve 2 is connected to the common port 23, so that a small part of the oil returning from the second actuator interface 4 (second motor) flows out through the second working port 22 and the common port 23 of the low pressure side shuttle valve 2, and returns to the oil tank through the return port 5, so that the oil is cooled.

[0025] When hydraulic oil enters from the second actuator interface 4 (second motor), the high pressure will switch to the low pressure side shuttle valve 2. The low pressure side shuttle valve 2 is connected, that is, the first working port 21 of the low pressure side shuttle valve 2 is connected to the common port 23, so that a small part of the oil returning from the first actuator interface 3 (first motor) flows out through the first working port 21 and the common port 23 of the low pressure side shuttle valve 2, and returns to the oil tank through the return port 5, so that the oil is cooled.

[0026] While specific embodiments of this utility model have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that these are merely illustrative examples, and the scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims.
