Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bulldozer technology, and more specifically to a hydraulic system that simultaneously applies a bulldozer ripper and a universal shovel. Background Technology

[0002] For small-horsepower bulldozers and construction machinery, the space layout is compact, but there are many requirements for the operation of the working devices. Under the premise of meeting the flow and functional requirements, the working valves cannot be arranged normally. For example, the bulldozer requires both a universal shovel and a ripper. There is not enough space to arrange multiple working valves in a small space. Even if they can be arranged inside the vehicle body, they will take up too much space, which will affect other functions such as heat dissipation. Utility Model Content

[0003] One advantage of this invention is that it provides a hydraulic system for the simultaneous use of a bulldozer ripper and a universal shovel. The blade and ripper working devices share a single main valve working link, which can realize the control of two working devices by a single working valve. The blade and ripper can be operated separately by a two-position six-way valve and a solenoid valve. This solves the problem that multi-link working valves cannot be used to simultaneously match the universal shovel and ripper due to the limited space of the whole machine, and can also reduce the overall cost of the machine.

[0004] To achieve at least one of the advantages of this utility model, this utility model provides a hydraulic system for the simultaneous application of a bulldozer ripper and a universal shovel, including a working valve and a blade tilting cylinder and a ripper cylinder connected to the working valve.

When the solenoid valve 2 is energized, the two-position six-way valve 1 operates in the right position, and the hydraulic fluid input from the blade tilting coupling 11 in the working valve 6 flows through the right position of the two-position six-way valve 1 to the blade tilting cylinder 3. The right position of the two-position six-way valve 1 is connected to the ripper cylinder 4; the working valve 6 also includes a blade angle adjustment linkage 9 and a blade lifting and lowering linkage 10. The working valve 6 is connected to the blade angle adjustment cylinder 7 and the blade lifting and lowering cylinder 8 via a hydraulic circuit. The blade angle adjustment linkage 9 is connected to the blade adjustment cylinder, and the blade lifting and lowering linkage 10 is connected to the blade lifting and lowering cylinder 8.

It also includes an oil tank 5, which is connected to the working valve 6 and the two-position six-way valve 1 via a hydraulic circuit to form a loop.

[0016] The first embodiment of this utility model is as follows:

[0017] A hydraulic system for simultaneous use of a bulldozer ripper and shovel includes a working valve 6 and a blade angle adjustment cylinder 7, a blade lifting and lowering cylinder 8, a blade tilting cylinder 3, and a ripper cylinder 4 connected to the working valve 6. An oil tank 5 is connected to the working valve 6, a two-position six-way valve 1, and each cylinder via a hydraulic circuit to form a loop. The working valve 6 internally has multiple working connections, including a blade tilting connection 11, a blade angle adjustment connection 9, and a blade lifting and lowering connection 10. The blade angle adjustment connection 9 is connected to the blade adjustment cylinder, and the blade lifting and lowering connection 10 is connected to the blade lifting and lowering cylinder 8. The blade tilting linkage 11 is connected to a two-position six-way valve 1 via a hydraulic circuit. The two-position six-way valve 1 is connected to the blade tilting cylinder 3 and the ripper cylinder 4 via a hydraulic circuit. The two-position six-way valve 1 is equipped with a solenoid valve 2. When the solenoid valve 2 is de-energized, the two-position six-way valve 1 operates in the left position. The oil input from the blade tilting linkage 11 in the working valve 6 flows through the left position of the two-position six-way valve 1 to the blade tilting cylinder 3. When the solenoid valve 2 is energized, the two-position six-way valve 1 operates in the right position. The oil input from the blade tilting linkage 11 in the working valve 6 flows through the right position of the two-position six-way valve 1 to the ripper cylinder 4.

[0018] It also includes a blade and a ripper that are hinged to the bulldozer. The blade angle adjustment cylinder 7 and the blade lifting and lowering cylinder 8 are hinged to the bulldozer and the blade at both ends, respectively, to adjust the angle and height of the blade. The ripper cylinder 4 is hinged to the bulldozer and the ripper at both ends, respectively, to drive the ripper to work.

[0019] A two-position six-way valve 1 and a solenoid valve 2 are used to enable the bulldozer to be equipped with a universal shovel and a ripper simultaneously. The blade tilting cylinder 3 and the ripper cylinder 4 share a common working link, namely the blade tilting link 11. When the solenoid valve 2 is de-energized, the two-position six-way valve 1 operates in the left position. The oil output from the working pump enters the working valve 6 through the P port, passes through the blade tilting link 11 in the working valve 6, and enters the left position of the two-position six-way valve 1 to the blade tilting cylinder 3, which can then operate. When the solenoid valve 2 is energized, the two-position six-way valve 1 operates in the right position. The oil output from the working pump enters the working valve 6 through the P port, passes through the blade tilting link 11 in the working valve 6, and then passes through the right position of the two-position six-way valve 1 to the ripper cylinder 4, which then operates.

[0020] The shovel and ripper work devices share a single working link. The shovel and ripper can be operated separately through a two-position six-way valve 1 and a solenoid valve 2. This invention can solve the problem that the multi-link working valve 6 cannot be used to simultaneously operate the universal shovel and ripper due to the limited space of the whole machine.
