[0036] The first filter 101 is used for protecting the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil entering the second priority valve 92, preventing the second priority valve 92 from being stuck, and causing the abnormal function of the steering system.
[0037] The first priority valve 91 and the second priority valve 92 can limit the maximum pressure of the system, ensure the flow of the steering system, and reduce the energy consumption of the hydraulic system when the steering is not working.
[0038] The main steering oil cylinder 12 and the auxiliary steering oil cylinder 19 are driving elements of the steering mechanism, and the output shafts of the main steering oil cylinder 12 and the auxiliary steering oil cylinder 19 drive the drag arm on the steering axle to realize the steering function of the vehicle.
[0039] The main steering oil cylinder 12 and the auxiliary steering oil cylinder 19 are both provided with two, when one output shaft is extended, the other output shaft is retracted, to achieve the effect of adjusting the steering axle of the dump truck, and the steering axle is connected with the steering tire, that is, the tire angle is adjusted.
[0040] The main steering motor 5 provides a power source for the steering system during normal driving, the main steering pump 6 provides hydraulic oil for the main steering system and converts the mechanical energy of the main steering motor 5 into hydraulic energy, the auxiliary steering pump 7 provides hydraulic oil for the auxiliary steering system and converts the mechanical energy of the main steering motor 5 into hydraulic energy, and the main steering motor 5 can drive the main steering pump 6 and the auxiliary steering pump 7 at the same time.
[0041] The main steering pump 6, the auxiliary steering pump 7, the priority valve, the first emergency motor pump group 1, the second emergency motor pump group 13, the one-way valve 14 and the proportional valve 18 are all connected with the oil tank 16. The oil tank 16 is an energy storage container for hydraulic oil, and also provides heat dissipation function for the hydraulic oil.
[0042] The first emergency motor pump group 1 and the second emergency motor pump group 13 provide power sources for the main steering system and the auxiliary steering system in the emergency state respectively.
[0043] The oil tank 16 is provided with a liquid level gauge 17 and a temperature sensor 8.
[0044] The first pressure switch 41 is arranged above the main steering pump 6 and is connected with the first shuttle valve 31 and the main steering pump 6.
[0045] The second pressure switch 42 is arranged on the auxiliary steering pump 7 and is connected with the auxiliary steering pump 7, the first filter 101 and the second emergency motor pump group 13.
[0046] The one-way valve 14 is connected between the first priority valve 91 and the proportional valve 18, and the cooler 15 is connected in parallel with the one-way valve 14.
[0047] The second filter 102 sends the cleaned hydraulic oil to the second priority valve 92.
[0048] The first filter 101 is connected with the second priority valve 92, and the second priority valve 92 is connected with the first priority valve 91 and the one-way valve 14.
[0049] The main steering pump 6 sends the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 16 to the main steering system and converts the mechanical energy of the main steering motor 5 into hydraulic energy.
[0050] The first emergency motor pump group 1 and the second emergency motor pump group 13 are integrated with the first emergency safety valve A11 and the second emergency safety valve 131 respectively, which are used to limit the maximum pressure of the emergency system and play a safety protection role.
[0051] When the mine dump truck needs to turn, the steering wheel is turned to drive the steering gear 11 to work, the main steering motor 5 works to drive the main steering motor 5 to work, and the main steering motor 5 sucks the hydraulic oil in the oil tank 16 to convert the mechanical energy of the main steering motor 5 into hydraulic energy. In this process, if the first pressure switch 41 detects an abnormality, the first emergency motor pump group 1 starts to work, the first emergency motor A13 rotates to drive the first emergency pump A12 to suck hydraulic oil, and the first emergency safety valve A11 is used to ensure the normal work of the first emergency motor A13 and the first emergency pump A12. The hydraulic oil passes through the second filter 102 and enters the first priority valve 91, and then is sent to the main steering oil cylinder 12. The two main steering oil cylinders 12 adjust the steering axle according to the rotation angle of the steering wheel, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the angle of the front tire.
[0052] In the process of adjusting the front wheel, if the angle of the steering gear 11 is greater than the angle threshold of the angle sensor, the signal is transmitted to the proportional valve 18, the main steering motor 5 drives the main steering pump 6 and the auxiliary steering pump 7 at the same time, the auxiliary steering pump 7 sucks the hydraulic oil, in this process, if the second pressure switch 42 detects an abnormality, the second emergency motor pump group 13 starts to work, the second emergency motor 133 rotates to drive the second emergency pump 132 to suck hydraulic oil, and the second emergency safety valve 131 is used to ensure the normal work of the second emergency motor 133 and the second emergency pump 132. The hydraulic oil is transported to the second priority valve through the first filter 101, and then is sent to the auxiliary steering oil cylinder 19 through the second priority valve 92 adjusted by the proportional valve 18, and then is adjusted through the output end of the two auxiliary steering oil cylinders 19. The rear steering axle of the dump truck is adjusted, thereby adjusting the direction of the tire. By simultaneously equipping the main and auxiliary steering axles with emergency steering function, the effect of still being able to perform emergency steering function after the main steering pump 6 or the auxiliary steering pump 7 fails is achieved. By using the first emergency motor pump group 1 and the second emergency motor pump group 13 in cooperation with the main steering pump 6 and the auxiliary steering pump 7, the effect of improving safety performance and reducing cost is achieved.
[0053] In example two, the main / auxiliary steering system independent emergency pump group design is cancelled, the first emergency motor pump group 1 and the second emergency motor pump group 13 are modified into a bidirectional switchable pump group, and a three-way reversing valve (not shown in the figure) is added in parallel with the main steering pump 6 and the auxiliary steering pump 7.
[0054] When the main steering pump 6 or the auxiliary steering pump 7 pressure is abnormal, the three-way reversing valve automatically switches to the corresponding emergency pump group to realize seamless emergency power supply of the main and auxiliary systems. When the main steering pump 6 fails, the first emergency motor pump group 1 works, and when the auxiliary steering pump 7 fails, the second emergency motor pump group 13 works. The first emergency motor pump group 1 and the second emergency motor pump group 13 are installed together, reducing the space and allowing the same pipeline to be set, thereby reducing the hardware cost.
