Abstract:
A valve (10) is specified, having a closing member (2), co-operating with a valve seat (11), said closing member (2) and said valve seat (11) each having in their contact area a closing surface (16, 17), which bear against each other in the closed state. With such a valve the improvement of the tightness must also be possible, even with a simple construction. For this purpose one of the closing surfaces (16, 17) is coated with a coating material (18), which is softer than the material of the other closing surface.
Abstract:
The invention concerns an axial sealing for pumps or motors, in which a medium is pumped into a chamber (7), limited by a first side wall (5) and a second side wall (6). The medium is pumped by a rotating element (9), preferably a pump wheel driven by a rotatable shaft (2). Due to the use of new pump media having a lower viscosity than previously used pump media, and due to the detrimental corrosive effect of these pump media, among others on the rotatable shaft, it is necessary to provide new sealings. The axial sealing according to the invention comprises a sealing element (19) extending around the rotatable shaft (2). In the radial direction the sealing element (19) is arranged between the rotatable shaft (2) and an inlet (12) and/or an outlet (13). The axial sealing according to the invention is able to maintain sufficient pressures in the chamber at high speeds of the rotating element, under which pumps and motors for the new pump media are working. The axial sealing according to the invention is also able to maintain the sealing in case of a leak of pump medium between the side walls (5, 6) and the rotating element (9), and is also able to maintain the sealing during a standstill of the pump.
Abstract:
A compressor operated refrigeration plant is equipped with a self-acting diaphragm valve (7), which blocks the condenser (5) in the standstill periods of the compressor. The valve (7) has a temperature sensor (23) in thermal contact with the suction pipe of the compressor. During the operation of the compressor the temperature sensor (23) is cooled, as the suction pipe is cooled by the cold refrigerant gas from the evaporator flowing through said suction pipe. During standstill of the compressor the temperature sensor is heated by radiated heat from the compressor and by the heat led back into the suction pipe from the compressor. The valve (7) is actuated by the pressure difference arising between the temperature sensor and the condenser due to the alternating cooling and heating of the temperature sensor. The valve is a diaphragm valve in which the diaphragm serves as valve plate. The valve seat is a lilp of elastic material on a valve seat element. The valve seat element has a second lip of elastic material, which surrounds a through-hole in the body and lies sealingly against the valve housing around an outlet opening. The lifting height of the valve plate can be adjusted by displacing the valve seat element, whereby the second lip is compressed more or less strongly.
Abstract:
When measuring fault currents in an inverter, in which controlled semiconductor switches are pulse width modulated, PWM-VSI, to convert a DC voltage from an intermediary circuit to a 3-phase AC voltage, DC currents are measured in the positive and the negative rail of the inverter, so that it is possible to detect faults originating from both short-circuits and earthing faults, maintaining a high sensitivity when reconstructing phase currents, which can be made by a so-called vector modulation, called (SFAVM), in which the states of the individual transistor switches are defined in a vector room (SFAVM) having six active states in which current flows in the inverter and two active states in which no current flows in the inverter. On the basis of the DC current measurements the phase currents can be reconstructed, and all faults can be detected. As mentioned, the measurement takes place as a measurement of DC currents, and for this purpose two transducers are used, which are constructed in a way that at the same current they give two different physical values, so that if there is no fault on the inverter, the phase current can still be reconstructed. The invention is especially expedient in connection with motor controls, active inverters, active filters, compensators, etc.
Abstract:
A valve arrangement for a hydraulic control apparatus, in particular a hydrostatic steering device, has a priority valve (1). From the priority outlet (CF) thereof a load pressure sensing line (19) extends to a load-pressure sensing point in the control apparatus (3). A pressure control valve (18) which holds the pressure arising at it constant is inserted in the load pressure sensing line (19). In this manner, with the customary priority valve largely being maintained, the stand-by pressure of this priority valve is increased.
Abstract:
A priority valve (1) for a hydraulic control apparatus (3), in particular a hydrostatic steering device, has a slide (10), a first pressure chamber (11) arranged at one end of the slide and connected by way of a first throttle (14) to a priority outlet (CF), and a second pressure chamber (12) arranged at the other end of the slide and having a spring (13). This second pressure chamber is connected by way of a series connection of first throttle (14), first pressure chamber (11) and second throttle (15) to the outlet (CF) and by way of a third throttle (13) to the load pressure connection (LS). In this manner the first pressure chamber (11) has liquid under pressure flowing continuously through it, with the result that operation is improved.
Abstract:
A hydraulic machine (1) is disclosed, having a gearwheel (4), which is arranged on a shaft (2) so that they rotate together and which has a first external toothing (5), a gear ring (7), which has a second external toothing (8) and a first internal toothing (6) which engages with the first external toothing (5), a toothed rim (10), which has a second internal toothing (9) that engages with the second external toothing (8), and having a commutation arrangement for supplying and discharging in the correct order hydraulic fluid in pressure pockets which are formed in the first and/or second toothed coupling in each case between external and internal toothing. It is desirable to be able to improve the operational behaviour of such a machine. For that purpose, on both axial sides of gearwheel (4) and gear ring (7) there is a respective lateral plate (34, 37), which plates are joined axially to one another and move jointly with the gearwheel (4) or the gear ring (7).
Abstract:
An adjustment device (1) for a radiator thermostat is disclosed, having a housing (17, 18, 2) in which a temperature sensor (6) is arranged. In such an adjustment device it is desirable to improve the thermal behaviour. For that purpose the housing (17, 18) is closed at its exterior.
Abstract:
A valve arrangement (9) for hydraulic work motors, especially for steering devices, that are operated by a control device, has an inlet (14) to be connected to a motor line, an outlet (18) to be connected to a tank line and a valve (10, 11) between the inlet and the outlet. The valve (10, 11) is controlled in dependence on the rate of rise of the input pressure and opens when the rate of rise exceeds a predetermined value. In that manner, undesirable acceleration of the work motor can be prevented.
Abstract:
In a stop valve (1) in which the maximum percentage opening is adjustable, the restriction of the valve is carried out by adjustment of a valve rod (3), on which a valve disc (4) is fixed, which cooperates with a valve seat (5) within the valve body (2) of the stop valve. The valve rod (3) consists of two axially movable parts (6, 7) which are adjustable in relation to each other by means of a driver connection, the most inner part (7) supporting the valve disc (4). In order to facilitate the adjustment and simplify the design the axially extreme valve rod part (6) is cylindric and has external threads (8), which cooperate with threads which are fixed in relation to the valve body. When said valve rod part (6) is rotated it moves in axial direction to or away from said valve seat (5). The axially inner valve rod part (7) is inserted in the cylindric extreme valve rod part (6) and the driver connection consists of a friction arrested screw connection (9) connecting the two valve rod parts.
