[0022] A control oil port a of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve is connected to a pilot handle oil port for controlling right slewing, and a control oil port b of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve is connected to a pilot handle oil port for controlling the left slewing.
[0023] When a slewing pilot handle is not operated, the control oil port a and the control oil port b of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve have no pressure, the oil inlet control valve 2 and the oil return control valve 3 remain in a middle position and do not reverse the direction; the first solenoid reversing valve 17 and the second solenoid reversing valve 18 are not energized. Oil from the metering pump 1 enters the pressure equalizing valve 14 via port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2, and the pressure equalizing valve 14 is opened to return oil.
[0024] When a crane works to lift a heavy object, if a wire rope is not perpendicular to the heavy object, the first solenoid reversing valve 17 is energized to connect port A and port B of the slewing motor 22 with the port P of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve by means of the first solenoid reversing valve 17 to realize the alignment of the wire rope with the heavy object.
[0025] When the pilot handle for controlling right slewing is pushed step by step, a pressure at the control oil port a of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve gradually increases and at this moment, the oil inlet control valve 2 gradually reverses the direction and a throttle port from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 to the port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2 is narrowed gradually to closed, a throttle port from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 to the port A of the oil inlet control valve 2 is widened gradually to fully open, a path between the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2 and the port T is cut off, the port Lsb of the oil inlet control valve 2 is connected to the oil return port T, the port B of the oil inlet control valve 2 is closed, the pressure at the port A of the oil inlet control valve 2 is built up, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22 is fed back to the port sa of the oil return control valve 3 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2, the first damper 4, the first gap damper 6 and the first one-way valve 8 to push the oil return control valve 3 to reverse the direction, the throttle port for the port B of the oil return control valve 3 to return oil via the port T is widened gradually, and the port A of the oil return control valve 3 is closed and at the same time, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22 is fed back to the spring chamber of the pressure equalizing valve 14 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2, the third one-way valve 10 and the third damper 12 to narrow the opening of the pressure equalizing valve 14; at the same time, the oil from the metering pump 1 pushes the slewing motor 22 to slew right via the oil inlet control valve 2, and the oil from the port B of the slewing motor 22 reaches the port T via the oil return control valve 3.
[0026] When the slewing mechanism slews right, if the pressure at port A of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve is too high, the corresponding first oil replenishment overflow valve 15 is opened to protect the system pressure from exceeding a set value.
[0027] When the pilot handle for controlling right slewing gradually returns, the pressure at the control oil port a of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve gradually decreases and at this moment, the oil inlet control valve 2 gradually returns to the middle position from a reversing position, the throttle port from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 to the port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2 is widened gradually, the throttle port from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 to the port A of the oil inlet control valve 2 is narrowed to closed, the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2 is connected to the port T, the port Lsb of the oil inlet control valve 2 is connected to the port T, the pressure at the port A of the oil inlet control valve 2 gradually decreases, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22, which is fed back to the port sa of the oil return control valve 3 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2, the first damper 4, the first gap damper 6 and the first one-way valve 8, decreases gradually, the oil return control valve 3 gradually returns to the middle position from a reversing position, and the throttle port for the port B of the oil return control valve 3 to return oil via the port T is narrowed gradually to closed and at the same time, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22, which is fed back to the spring chamber of the pressure equalizing valve 14 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2, the third one-way valve 10 and the third damper 12, decreases gradually, and the opening of the pressure equalizing valve 14 is widened; at this moment, the oil from the metering pump 1 enters the pressure equalizing valve 14 via the port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2, and the pressure equalizing valve 14 is opened to return the oil, and then the slewing motor 22 stops slewing.
[0028] When the slewing mechanism stops right slewing, the slewing mechanism keeps rotating due to its inertia, and the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22 decreases and at this moment, the oil is replenished to the port A of the slewing motor 22 by the first oil replenishment overflow valve 15, thereby preventing the slewing motor 22 from sucking air.
[0029] When the slewing mechanism stops right slewing, the slewing mechanism keeps rotating due to its inertia. The pressure at port B of the slewing motor 22 increases because the oil return control valve 3 is closed; at this moment, the second solenoid reversing valve 18 is closed with a delay, and the pressure at port B of the slewing motor 22 is unloaded by means of the shuttle valve 21, the fifth one-way valve 20, the soft overflow valve 19, and the second solenoid reversing valve 18 to avoid stop impact.
[0030] The start and stop of the slewing motor to slew left are operated in the same way as the process described above.
[0031] As shown in Fig. 2, it is a cross-sectional structural diagram of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve. The load-adaptive slewing cushion valve consists of three parts: a left end cover 23, a right end cover 24 and a valve body 25. The cross-sectional diagram includes the oil inlet control valve 2, the oil return control valve 3, the pressure equalizing valve 14, the first oil replenishment overflow valve 15, the second oil replenishment overflow valve 16, the first solenoid reversing valve 17, and the second solenoid reversing valve 18.
[0032] The left end cover 23 and the right end cover 24 are installed at two ends of the valve body 25 by bolts, the valve cores of the oil inlet control valve 2 and the oil return control valve 3 are installed in valve core holes of the valve body 25, and the first oil replenishment overflow valve 15, the second oil replenishment overflow valve 16, the first solenoid reversing valve 17, and the second solenoid reversing valve 18 are installed on the valve body 25 by threads.
[0033] When the control oil port a and the control oil port b of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve have no pressure, the oil inlet control valve 2 and the oil return control valve 3 remain in a middle position and do not reverse the direction; the first solenoid reversing valve 17 and the second solenoid reversing valve 18 are not energized. The oil from port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 enters the pressure equalizing valve 14 via port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2, and the pressure equalizing valve 14 moves up to open to return oil to port T.
[0034] When the pressure at the control oil port a of the oil inlet control valve 2 on the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve gradually increases, a valve core of the oil inlet control valve 2 gradually reverses the direction to the right, the throttle port from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 to the port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2 is narrowed gradually to closed, the throttle port from the port P to the port A is widened gradually to fully open, a path between the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2 and the port T is cut off, the port Lsb is connected to the port T, the port B of the oil inlet control valve 2 is closed, the pressure at the port A of the oil inlet control valve 2 is built up, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22 is fed back to the port Lsa of the oil return control valve 3 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2 to push the oil return control valve 3 to move to the right and reverse the direction, and the throttle port for the port B of the oil return control valve 3 to return oil via the port T is widened gradually, and the port A of the oil return control valve 3 is closed and at the same time, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor 22 is fed back to the upper chamber of the pressure equalizing valve 14 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2 to narrow the opening of the pressure equalizing valve 14; the oil from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 reaches the port A via the oil inlet control valve 2, and the oil from the port B reaches the port T via the oil return control valve 3.
[0035] When the pressure at the working oil port A of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve is too high, the corresponding first oil replenishment overflow valve 15 is opened to protect a system pressure from exceeding a set value.
[0036] When the pressure at the control oil port a of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve gradually decreases and at this moment, the oil inlet control valve 2 gradually moves to the left to return to the middle position from the reversing position, the throttle port from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 to the port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2 is widened gradually, the throttle port from the port P to the port A is narrowed to closed, the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2 is connected to the port T, the port Lsb is connected to the port T, the pressure at the port A of the oil inlet control valve 2 gradually decreases, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor, which is fed back to the port sa of the oil return control valve 3 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2, decreases gradually, the oil return control valve 3 gradually moves to the left to return to the middle position from the reversing position, and the throttle port for the port B of the oil return control valve 3 to return oil via the port T is narrowed gradually to closed and at the same time, the pressure at the port A of the slewing motor, which is fed back to the upper chamber of the pressure equalizing valve 14 via the port Lsa of the oil inlet control valve 2, decreases gradually, and the opening of the pressure equalizing valve 14 is widened; at this moment, the oil from the port P of the oil inlet control valve 2 passes through the port P1 of the oil inlet control valve 2 to push the pressure equalizing valve 14 to move up, and the pressure equalizing valve 14 is opened to return the oil to port T.
[0037] When the pressure at port A of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve decreases due to inertia, the oil is replenished to port A by the first oil replenishment overflow valve 15 to avoid air suction.
[0038] Similar to the process described above, when the pressure at the control oil port b of the oil inlet control valve 2 on the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve increases, the oil inlet control valve 2 completely reverse the direction and when the pressure decreases, the oil inlet control valve 2 returns to the middle position.
[0039] The oil inlet control valve 2 on the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve of the present invention adopts an open center throttle system to reduce the flow stiffness during reversal and reduce the impact during direction reversing.
[0040] The present invention designs a pressure equalizing valve 14 on a P-to-T oil path so that pressure differences at two ends of the P-to-A / B throttle port and the P-to-T port are approximately equal. The control flow of the slewing valve is only related to the area of a throttle groove and is not affected by the load pressure, thereby improving the control range during slewing with a high load. Moreover, the control range will not change under saturated flow, thereby achieving better controllability.
[0041] In the present invention, the load feedback chamber of the pressure equalizing valve 14 is connected to port T by the fourth damper 13. When the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve is in the middle position, the spring chamber of the pressure equalizing valve 14 relieves the pressure to avoid the pressure build-up of the load-adaptive slewing cushion valve.
[0042] In the present invention, a load signal is screened by the valve core of the oil inlet control valve 2. When the valve core is in the middle position, the pressure of a load signal chamber can be relieved by means of port T. During direction reversing, only the load pressure of one chamber of port A or B is fed back, and the pressure of the other chamber is relieved by means of the T port, thereby avoiding the flow error distribution caused by the feedback of the pressure from the oil return port due to the high impact pressure of the oil return port during slewing.
[0043] The present invention uses the oil inlet control valve to screen the oil inlet load pressure to control the opening of a throttle groove of the oil return control valve, thereby realizing adaptive control of different inertial loads, and achieving better controllability of slewing stop and a larger control range.
[0044] The slewing oil inlet pressure of the present invention controls the opening and closing of the throttle valve core of the oil return control valve 3 by means of the one-way gap damper composed of the first gap damper 6 (the second gap damper 7) and the first one-way valve 8 (the second one-way valve 9). When the slewing oil inlet pressure fluctuates, the gap damper can filter the pressure fluctuation, and the one-way valve can realize the rapid closing of the valve core.
[0045] The present invention adopts the soft overflow valve 19 and the second electromagnetic reversing valve 18 to reduce the stop impact of slewing. When the adaptive slewing mechanism starts to stop, the second solenoid reversing valve 18 is closed with a delay. At this moment, the oil return impact pressure caused by slewing is relieved by means of the soft overflow valve 19. When the slewing mechanism works at a high speed, the pressure of the soft overflow valve 19 is high. When the slewing mechanism works at a low speed, the pressure of the soft overflow valve 19 is low, thereby avoiding the stop impact of the slewing mechanism.Embodiment 2:
