After reading the present invention, any modifications of the present invention in various equivalent forms by those skilled in the art will fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
[0022] like Figure 1-3As shown, a battery-powered monorail hydraulic system includes an oil tank 1 and a dual pump assembly 2 mounted on the tank. The dual pump assembly includes a main pump 21 and an auxiliary pump 22 driven by a motor. The main pump is a load-sensitive pump, which is existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail. The load-sensitive pump can achieve zero-displacement start-up to solve the problem of stiff actuator movement in open systems. The auxiliary pump is a gear pump that pumps oil to the clamping cylinder 3 and the brake cylinder 4, respectively. The oil inlet of the main pump is connected to the oil tank. The main pump is connected to a first three-position four-way solenoid directional valve 5. The first three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is an M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve. The M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve allows the non-working main pump to be in an unloaded state, so the system does not need to continuously maintain pressure, reducing energy consumption and system heat generation, thereby effectively... This extends the service life of the main pump and the entire system. The pressure port (P) of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the outlet port of the main pump, and the return port (T) of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the oil tank. One working port (A) of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the lifting circuit 6. The lifting circuit includes two parallel second three-position four-way solenoid directional valves 61. The second three-position four-way solenoid directional valves are Y-type three-position four-way directional valves. The pressure port (P) of the second three-position four-way solenoid directional valves is connected to the working port A of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve. After the second three-position four-way solenoid directional valves are connected in parallel, a first relief valve 62 connected to the oil tank is installed on the oil line connected to the M-type three-position four-way solenoid valve to ensure pressure stability in the lifting circuit. A four-way solenoid directional valve connects to a pair of lifting motors 63. The A working port of the lifting motor is connected to the A working port of the second three-position four-way solenoid directional valve, and the B working port of the lifting motor is connected to the B working port of the second three-position four-way solenoid directional valve. A first hydraulic lock 64 is installed on the oil line connecting the lifting motor and the second three-position four-way solenoid directional valve to ensure the safety of lifting operations. The return ports of the two second three-position four-way solenoid directional valves are connected in parallel to the oil tank. The other working port (B) of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the travel circuit 7. The travel circuit includes a third three-position four-way solenoid directional valve 71, which is a Y-type three-position four-way directional valve. The pressure port (P) of the third three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve. The valve's B working port is connected to the oil line where the pressure port (P) of the third three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the B working port of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional valve. A second relief valve 72, connected to the oil tank, is installed to ensure stable pressure in the travel circuit. One working port (A) of the third three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to the first oil line 73, and the other working port (B) is connected to the second oil line 74. The third three-position four-way solenoid directional valve is connected to several pairs of travel motors 75 through the first and second oil lines. Among the pairs of travel motors, only one pair is the main travel motor, and the rest are auxiliary travel motors. A two-position three-way solenoid directional valve 76 is installed on the oil line connecting the auxiliary travel motors to the first and second oil lines for sling drive. A second hydraulic lock 77 is installed between the first and second oil lines.Ensure the monorail crane travels safely and stably.
[0023] The specific working process and principle of this utility model are as follows: During lifting, the clamping cylinder is unlocked, the brake cylinder operates, the lower side of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid valve is energized, and the P and A ports of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid valve are connected. The lower side of the second three-position four-way solenoid valve is also energized, and the P and A ports of the second three-position four-way solenoid valve are connected. The oil drawn by the main pump enters the A working port of the lifting motor, driving the lifting motor to rotate forward and lift the item. After the item is completely lifted, the brake cylinder is unlocked, the clamping cylinder operates, both the upper and lower sides of the second three-position four-way solenoid valve are de-energized, the lifting motor stops working, the upper side of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid valve is energized, and the P and B ports of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid valve are connected. The lower side of the third three-position four-way solenoid valve is energized, and the third three-position four-way solenoid valve... When the P and A ports of the directional control valve are connected, the upper side of the two-position three-way solenoid directional control valve is de-energized. The oil drawn by the main pump enters the A working oil port of the main travel motor and the auxiliary travel motor, causing the main travel motor and the auxiliary travel motor to rotate forward. After the goods are transferred to the destination, the clamping cylinder is unlocked, the brake cylinder is activated, the lower side of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional control valve is energized, and the P and A ports of the M-type three-position four-way solenoid directional control valve are connected. The upper side of the second three-position four-way solenoid directional control valve is energized, and the P and B ports of the second three-position four-way solenoid directional control valve are connected. The oil drawn by the main pump enters the B working oil port of the hoisting motor, driving the hoisting motor to reverse and lower the goods. When the monorail is returning, since it is unloaded, the upper side of the two-position three-way solenoid directional control valve can be energized to cut off the oil circuit of the auxiliary travel motor, thereby increasing the return speed. This invention uses an M-type three-position four-way solenoid valve to switch between lifting and walking actions. Lifting cannot be done while walking, and walking cannot be done while lifting, thus avoiding the phenomenon of lifting while walking due to misoperation and improving safety.
