Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ship lift technology, specifically a safety braking hydraulic system for a ship lift balance drum. Background Technology

[0002] In large ship lift projects, it is necessary to take precautions against water leakage accidents in the ship box. For example, the known patent publication number CN219242513U discloses a friction-type balancing drum device for ship lifts, with safety brakes at both ends of the friction-type balancing drum. The safety brake in the preferred technical solution disclosed is a hydraulic disc brake, which is activated by a disc spring and released hydraulically.

[0003] However, during normal operation and shutdown of the ship lift, the safety brake on the balance drum must always be in the open state. Only in the event of a large amount of water leakage in the ship chamber, after the main hoist stops and the ship chamber stops rising and falling, will the safety brake engage to prevent the waterless ship chamber from overshooting under the drag of the counterweight. In practical applications, considering that a large amount of water leakage in the ship chamber is an extreme accident, the required engagement time of the safety brake is very short throughout the ship lift's entire lifespan. If a normally closed hydraulic disc brake with disc spring engagement and hydraulic release is used, a power source must be continuously provided to maintain the brake in the open state for a long time, resulting in low equipment utilization and wasted energy. Therefore, in actual project applications, a normally open safety brake with hydraulic engagement and spring return release is often preferred.

[0004] In addition to the normally open safety brake, the balance drum safety braking system is also equipped with a safety braking hydraulic system and a control system. In the event of an extreme accident such as water leakage from the ship's hull, the safety brake is activated by the hydraulic pump in the hydraulic system, and the accumulator maintains the pressure. To ensure the stability and reliability of the safety brake's activation pressure, the accumulator capacity is set for a pressure holding time of no less than 12 hours. The overall pressure drop within 12 hours should not exceed 0.8 MPa. The hydraulic pump is only allowed to be activated to recharge after the pressure drops to the set value.

[0005] In the existing hydraulic system technology for safety braking of hoisting drums, the safety brake circuit uses a two-way cartridge valve as the main valve, which is pilot-controlled by a two-position four-way solenoid directional valve to achieve rapid braking response and synchronous brake release and engagement. In this system, the two-position four-way solenoid directional valve is a spool valve, which has a certain leakage. Conventional configurations cannot meet the requirement that the overall pressure drop within 12 hours of pressure holding should not exceed 0.8 MPa. If used to balance the drive and control of the safety brake of the hoisting drum, it will affect the stability and reliability of the safety brake's engagement pressure, posing a safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a safety braking hydraulic system for the balance drum of a ship lift.

The main oil circuit is connected to a pressure gauge, a first pressure sensor, an accumulator, a safety brake module, and a shut-off valve.

[0011] The safety brake module inlet is equipped with a third check valve and a fourth check valve.

The A8 port of the eighth solenoid directional valve is then connected back to the oil tank. The output of port B10 of the tenth solenoid directional valve is divided into two paths: one path is connected to the control X port of the fifth two-way cartridge valve, and the other path is connected to port B9 of the ninth solenoid directional valve. The A9 port of the ninth solenoid directional valve is then connected back to the oil tank. The output of port B12 of the twelfth solenoid directional valve is divided into two paths: one path is connected to the control X port of the sixth two-way cartridge valve, and the other path is connected to port B11 of the eleventh solenoid directional valve. The A11 port of the eleventh solenoid directional valve is then connected back to the oil tank.

[0013] The B ports of the first, second, fourth, and fifth two-way cartridge valves are connected in parallel and output in three paths. The first path is connected to the second pressure sensor, and the second and third paths are connected to the safety brake assembly via symmetrical pipelines. The A port of the second two-way cartridge valve is connected to the B port of the third two-way cartridge valve, and the A port of the fifth two-way cartridge valve is connected to the B port of the sixth two-way cartridge valve. The A ports of the third and sixth two-way cartridge valves are connected in parallel and output as the return oil port of the safety brake module.

[0017] Furthermore, each solenoid directional valve is equipped with a valve core position feedback limit switch.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0019] 1) The main valve of the safety brake circuit adopts a high-flow two-way cartridge valve, which is pilot-controlled by a two-position two-way solenoid directional valve to achieve synchronous activation and deactivation of multiple safety brakes; the valve core of the solenoid directional valve adopts a cone valve structure, which has extremely low internal leakage when the safety brake is activated and pressure is maintained, and can meet the requirements of the safety brake for long-term activation and pressure maintenance.

[0020] 2) The connection of each electromagnetic reversing valve in this utility model is redundant, which can avoid the accident caused by the sudden failure of any electromagnetic reversing valve to reset the safety brake when the safety brake is engaged and holding pressure under extreme accident conditions, resulting in a rapid decrease or failure of the safety brake force and the accident of the ship's tank being dragged by the counterweight under the weight of gravity.

[0021] 3) This utility model is particularly effective in the safety braking system of the balance drum of the ship lift. In the extreme accident condition of water leakage in the ship box, the control of the normally open safety brake to maintain pressure can meet the requirement that the comprehensive pressure drop within 12 hours of a single pressure maintenance is not greater than 0.8MPa, ensuring the stability and reliability of the safety brake's pressure, and eliminating the safety hazards of large leakage and unstable braking force of the pilot control of the slide valve type electromagnetic reversing valve.

[0029] In this embodiment, the first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7, the seventh solenoid directional valve 13.9, the ninth solenoid directional valve 13.11, and the eleventh solenoid directional valve 13.13 are all normally open two-position two-way solenoid directional valves with a conical valve core. Preferably, they are Hawe BVP1-SK series solenoid directional valves with conical seat valves and no leakage.

[0030] In this embodiment, the second electromagnetic directional valve 13.4, the fourth electromagnetic directional valve 13.6, the sixth electromagnetic directional valve 13.8, the eighth electromagnetic directional valve 13.10, the tenth electromagnetic directional valve 13.12, and the twelfth electromagnetic directional valve 13.14 are all normally closed two-position two-way electromagnetic directional valves with a conical valve core. Preferably, they are Hawe BVP1-RK series electromagnetic directional valves with conical seat valves and no leakage.

[0031] In this embodiment, each solenoid directional valve is equipped with a valve core position feedback limit switch. When any solenoid directional valve malfunctions, an alarm signal can be issued in a timely manner to remind the operator to safely stop the machine and replace the faulty solenoid directional valve in a timely manner to eliminate potential safety hazards.

[0032] The electromagnetic directional valves of this invention are connected in a redundant configuration, which can prevent the safety brake from suddenly malfunctioning and resetting due to a sudden failure of any electromagnetic directional valve, causing the safety brake to rapidly decrease or fail, thus preventing the ship from overturning under the drag of the counterweight during extreme accident conditions.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0034] Pressure building up of the safety brake hydraulic system: The main unit issues a pressure building up command for the balance drum safety brake hydraulic system, the first motor pump unit 2 is energized and starts under no-load. After a delay of several seconds, the motor reaches its rated speed, controlling the first solenoid relief valve 4 to be energized (when the motor pump unit is first started, the solenoid valve is not energized, the hydraulic oil output by the plunger pump is unloaded from the solenoid relief valve, the motor pump unit achieves no-load start, after the motor reaches its rated speed, the solenoid valve is energized again to build up pressure, eliminating the impact and abnormal noise when the motor pump unit starts under load). The pump unit begins to build up pressure, and the pressurized oil enters the accumulator 12 through the first high-pressure filter 6 and the first check valve 8. When the first pressure sensor 11 detects that the pressure in the accumulator 12 has reached the set value, the first solenoid relief valve 4 is de-energized. After a delay of several seconds, the first motor pump unit 2 is de-energized, and the hydraulic system begins to maintain pressure; when the pressure in the accumulator 12 is due to internal leakage in the system, the first pressure sensor 11 detects the pressure. If the pressure drops below the set low pressure, the first motor pump group 2 will be powered on again to replenish the pressure. If the first motor pump group 2 fails and cannot build up pressure, after a delay of several seconds, if the first pressure sensor 11 cannot detect the high pressure, it will report "Main motor pump group failure" and promptly switch to the second motor pump group 3. The operating logic of the second motor pump group 3 is the same as that of the first motor pump group 2. At the same time, the first motor pump group 2 and the second motor pump group 3 are configured in parallel with redundancy. In the event of failure of the main motor pump group, the system can switch to the standby pump group in a timely manner. This avoids the safety hazard that the balance drum safety brake hydraulic system cannot work when the main motor pump group fails, which could cause the ship lift to fail to engage the safety brake in the event of a water leak in the ship box. After the system has been running for a period of time, the main and standby pump groups can be rotated to avoid the risk of performance degradation caused by the prolonged inactivity of any motor pump group.

[0035] Safety brake assembly engaged: The main unit issues an engagement command for the balance drum safety brake assembly 13.22. The main motor pump unit starts operating and builds pressure. The first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and eleventh solenoid directional valves 13.10, 13.11, 13.12, 13.13, and 13.14 are energized. The first and fourth two-way cartridge valves 13.15 and 13.18 open, and the second, third, and fifth two-way cartridge valves 13.16, 13.17, and 13.18 open. The two-way cartridge valve 13.19 and the sixth two-way cartridge valve 13.20 are closed. The pressure oil output from the motor pump unit and the accumulator 10 passes through the third check valve 13.1 and the fourth check valve 13.2, and then splits into two paths from ports A and B of the first two-way cartridge valve 13.15 and ports A and B of the fourth two-way cartridge valve 13.18, and merges into the safety brake group 13.22. At the same time, when the second pressure sensor 13.21 detects that the pressure of the safety brake group 13.22 has reached the set value, it outputs a signal that the safety brake group 13.22 has reached the braking pressure. All safety brakes are engaged and maintain pressure. Meanwhile, the cone valve structure adopted by the electromagnetic reversing valve core has extremely low internal leakage when the safety brakes are engaged and maintain pressure, ensuring the stability and reliability of the safety brake engagement pressure.

[0036] Safety brake assembly release: The main unit issues a release command for the balance drum safety brake assembly 13.22. The first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the second solenoid directional valve 13.4, the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, the fourth solenoid directional valve 13.6, the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7, the sixth solenoid directional valve 13.8, the seventh solenoid directional valve 13.9, the eighth solenoid directional valve 13.10, the ninth solenoid directional valve 13.11, the tenth solenoid directional valve 13.12, the eleventh solenoid directional valve 13.13, and the twelfth solenoid directional valve 13.14 are de-energized. The first two-way cartridge valve 13.15 and the fourth two-way cartridge valve 13.18 close, and the second two-way cartridge valve... Valve 13.16, third two-way cartridge valve 13.17, fifth two-way cartridge valve 13.19, and sixth two-way cartridge valve 13.20 are opened; the pressure oil in the safety brake assembly 13.22 is divided into two paths, flowing from ports B and A of the second two-way cartridge valve 13.16 and the third two-way cartridge valve 13.17, and from ports B and A of the fifth two-way cartridge valve 13.19 and the sixth two-way cartridge valve 13.20, before flowing back to the oil tank 1 through the return oil filter 15. At the same time, the second pressure sensor 13.21 detects that the pressure of the safety brake assembly 13.22 is lower than the set value and outputs a signal that the safety brake assembly 13.22 has reached the release pressure, and all safety brakes are released and reset.

[0037] The fault operation principle of the electromagnetic reversing valve in safety brake module 13 is as follows:

[0038] When the safety brake assembly 13.22 executes the engagement command, if the first solenoid directional valve 13.3 malfunctions and fails to engage, the valve core position feedback limit of the first solenoid directional valve 13.3 firstly sends a fault signal to the solenoid directional valve, controlling the second solenoid directional valve 13.4 to de-energize. At this time, the first two-way cartridge valve 13.15 closes, and simultaneously the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, the fourth solenoid directional valve 13.6, the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7, the sixth solenoid directional valve 13.8, the seventh solenoid directional valve 13.9, and the eighth solenoid directional valve... Under the coordinated control of directional valve 13.10, the ninth solenoid directional valve 13.11, the tenth solenoid directional valve 13.12, the eleventh solenoid directional valve 13.13, and the twelfth solenoid directional valve 13.14, the second two-way cartridge valve 13.16 and the third two-way cartridge valve 13.17 are closed, the fourth two-way cartridge valve 13.18 is opened, and the fifth two-way cartridge valve 13.19 and the sixth two-way cartridge valve 13.20 are closed. The pressurized oil enters the safety brake assembly 13.22 from the fourth two-way cartridge valve 13.18 to realize the brake activation action.

[0039] When the safety brake assembly 13.22 executes the brake engagement command, if the third solenoid directional valve 13.5 malfunctions and fails to engage, firstly, the valve core position feedback limit of the third solenoid directional valve 13.5 sends a fault signal, controlling the fourth solenoid directional valve 13.6 to de-energize. At this time, the second two-way cartridge valve 13.16 opens, and simultaneously the first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the second solenoid directional valve 13.4, the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7, the sixth solenoid directional valve 13.8, the seventh solenoid directional valve 13.9, and the eighth solenoid directional valve 13.10... Under the coordinated control of the ninth solenoid directional valve 13.11, the tenth solenoid directional valve 13.12, the eleventh solenoid directional valve 13.13, and the twelfth solenoid directional valve 13.14, the first two-way cartridge valve 13.15 and the fourth two-way cartridge valve 13.18 are opened, the third two-way cartridge valve 13.17, the fifth two-way cartridge valve 13.19, and the sixth two-way cartridge valve 13.20 are closed, and the series connection of the second two-way cartridge valve 13.16 and the third two-way cartridge valve 13.17 ensures the normal braking action of the safety brake assembly 13.22.

[0040] When the safety brake assembly 13.22 executes the brake engagement command, if the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7 malfunctions and fails to engage, firstly, the valve core position feedback limit of the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7 sends a fault signal, controlling the sixth solenoid directional valve 13.8 to de-energize. At this time, the third two-way cartridge valve 13.17 opens, and simultaneously the first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the second solenoid directional valve 13.4, the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, the fourth solenoid directional valve 13.6, the seventh solenoid directional valve 13.9, and the eighth solenoid directional valve 13.10... Under the coordinated control of the ninth solenoid directional valve 13.11, the tenth solenoid directional valve 13.12, the eleventh solenoid directional valve 13.13, and the twelfth solenoid directional valve 13.14, the first two-way cartridge valve 13.15 and the fourth two-way cartridge valve 13.18 are opened, and the second two-way cartridge valve 13.16, the fifth two-way cartridge valve 13.19, and the sixth two-way cartridge valve 13.20 are closed. The series connection of the second two-way cartridge valve 13.16 and the third two-way cartridge valve 13.17 ensures the normal braking action of the safety brake assembly 13.22.

[0041] Similarly, when the safety brake assembly 13.22 executes the brake-on command, if any of the second solenoid directional valve 13.4, the fourth solenoid directional valve 13.6, or the sixth solenoid directional valve 13.8 malfunctions, the corresponding first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, and the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7 will be de-energized in coordination, and the pressure oil flow direction will be consistent with that when any of the first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, or the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7 malfunctions.

[0042] Similarly, when the safety brake assembly 13.22 executes the brake-on command, if any of the seventh solenoid directional valve 13.9, the eighth solenoid directional valve 13.10, the ninth solenoid directional valve 13.11, the tenth solenoid directional valve 13.12, the eleventh solenoid directional valve 13.13, or the twelfth solenoid directional valve 13.14 malfunctions, the pressure oil flow direction is the same as when any of the first solenoid directional valve 13.3, the second solenoid directional valve 13.4, the third solenoid directional valve 13.5, the fourth solenoid directional valve 13.6, the fifth solenoid directional valve 13.7, or the sixth solenoid directional valve 13.8 malfunctions. The difference lies in the two-way cartridge valve being controlled.

[0043] Similarly, the flow and transmission routes of hydraulic oil when any of the following electromagnetic directional valves malfunctions—the first (13.3), the second (13.4), the third (13.5), the fourth (13.6), the fifth (13.7), the sixth (13.8), the seventh (13.9), the eighth (13.10), the ninth (13.11), the tenth (13.12), the eleventh (13.13), or the twelfth (13.14)—are also suitable for the operating condition of any electromagnetic directional valve malfunctioning while the safety brake assembly 13.22 is maintaining the braked state. The redundant setting of the electromagnetic directional valves avoids the safety brake assembly 13.22 from experiencing a rapid decrease or failure of the brake's braking force due to a sudden malfunction and reset of any electromagnetic directional valve, which could lead to a ship overturning accident under the drag of the counterweight.
