Abstract:
A proportional pressure regulating valve has a valve piston (12) longitudinally movable in a valve housing (10) and connecting a utility connection (A) to a pressure supply connection (P) or to a tank or return flow connection (T) dependent on the displacement position of the valve piston. The valve piston is actuated by an actuation magnet (48) that can be supplied with current. A control device (50) is between the valve piston (12) and the actuation magnet (48), and allows the valve piston (12) to become pressureless on the valve piston side (52) facing the actuation magnet (48). The valve piston (12) is displaced in the direction of the actuation magnet (48) under the supply and/or utility connection pressure when the actuation magnet is not actuated.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for improving the energy efficiency in hydraulic systems, comprising at least one working cylinder (58) which, in an operating state, operates as a consumer of hydraulic energy and, in a different operating state, as a generator of hydraulic energy, and a hydraulic accumulator (1) which, in an operating state of the working cylinder (58), can be charged by the same for storing energy and, in a different operating state, can be discharged for delivering energy to the working cylinder (58). The invention is characterized in that at least one hydraulic accumulator is provided in the form of an adjustable hydropneumatic piston accumulator (1), in which are formed a plurality of pressure chambers (19, 21, 23, 25) which adjoin effective surfaces (11, 13, 15, 17) of different sizes on the fluid side of the accumulator piston (5), and an adjusting arrangement (51) is provided which connects a selected pressure chamber (19, 21, 23, 25) or a plurality of selected pressure chambers (19, 21, 23, 25) of the piston accumulator (1) to the working cylinder (58) as a function of the pressure level that prevails respectively on the gas side of the piston accumulator (1) and on the working cylinder (58).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a directional poppet valve (10), comprising valve pistons (16-22) arranged in a valve housing (12) for controlling a plurality of fluid connections (A, B, P, T), wherein the positions of each of the valve pistons (16-22) in the valve housing (12) can be changed by means of at least one actuating device, and wherein the fluid connections (A, B, P, T) are connected to one another or separated from one another alternately depending on the position of the valve pistons (16-22). The invention is characterised in that the valve pistons (16-22) are arranged inline along at least one axis (R), consecutively and/or at least such as to partially interengage, in the valve housing (12).
Abstract:
A device includes a regulating piston (12) guided longitudinally movably in a housing (10) and interacting with a control edge (56), at a pressure supply port (P) that supplies a utility port (A) in regulating positions of the regulating piston (12) with fluid. The pressure can be preset via a fluid connection, pulling the regulating piston towards a closed position blocking this fluid connection due to occurring flow forces. The regulating piston (12) has a change of shape (60) from its general outer basic shape in the area of the control edge (56) of the housing (10) for a flow force compensation. A flow contact surface for fluid is provided causing a compensating force acting against the flow force to be introduced into the regulating piston (12), which flow force pulls the regulating piston (12) into an open position opposite from the blocked position. The change of shape (60) also follows a step function, the function graph of which has at least one step more than the number of steps required to form the control edge (56).
Abstract:
A hydraulic hybrid system for rotatory applications has an actuator (49, 91) in the form of a motor pump unit (91). The motor pump unit is coupled to a rotatory-operating device (94) and works as a consumer of hydraulic energy in one operating state of the device (94) and works as a producer of hydraulic energy in another operating state of the device (94). A hydraulic accumulator (1) can be charged by the motor pump unit (91) for energy storage in the one operating state and can be discharged for energy release to the motor pump unit (91) in the other operating state. The hydraulic accumulator is an adjustable hydropneumatic piston accumulator (1) in which a plurality of pressure chambers (19, 21, 23, 25) are delimited by active surfaces (11, 13, 15, 17) of different sizes on the fluid side of the accumulator piston (5). An adjusting arrangement (51) connects a selected pressure chamber (19, 21, 13, 25) or a plurality of selected pressure chambers (19, 21, 23, 25) of the piston accumulator (1) to the actuator (49, 91) depending on the prevailing pressure level on the gas side of the piston accumulator (1) and at the actuator (49, 91).
Abstract:
A valve device, in particular a double stop-check valve, preferably of the two-way valve type, has at least three fluid connections (1, 2, 3) provided in a valve housing (51). Two valve elements (65, 67) can slide in the valve housing (51). One control device (71) controls the valve elements (65, 67). At least one of the valve elements (65, 67) forms, together with parts (59/61) of the valve housing (51), a seat leak-tight closure part for the associated fluid connections (1, 2, 3).
