Abstract

A hydraulic stabilizing device for vehicles having an actuator which can be acted on in opposite directions comprises a switching device, which is formed by a directional control valve, and, in series with the switching device, a switching apparatus, which is formed by two separate directional control valves which are connected in parallel and correspondingly have a blocking position and different pass-through positions.

Claims (8)

1. A hydraulic stabilizing device for vehicles, having an actuator that is selectively acted on in opposite directions with a switching device, which is switched between a direct pass-through position and a crossed-over pass-through position, and, in series with the switching device, a switching apparatus, which is switched between a pass-through position and a blocking position as its basic position, located in the connection of connection lines to a pressure source and a reservoir, wherein the switching apparatus ( 18 ) comprises two separate switching valves ( 20 , 21 ) which are arranged in parallel with one another and of which one switching valve ( 20 ) has a blocking position and a direct pass-through position and the other switching valve ( 21 ) has a blocking position and a crossed-over pass-through position, wherein said device is a roll stabilizing device and wherein the actuator is assigned to an axle of a vehicle and said connection lines open out on its acted-on sides corresponding to the opposite directions.

2. The hydraulic stabilizing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the switching device ( 17 ) is formed by a 4/2 way valve.

3. The hydraulic stabilizing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the switching valves ( 20 , 21 ) of the switching apparatus ( 18 ) are formed by 4/2 way valves.

4. The hydraulic stabilizing device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the switching device ( 17 ) is arranged downstream of the switching apparatus ( 18 ).

5. The hydraulic stabilizing device as claimed in claim 1 wherein pressure sensors ( 24 , 25 ) are arranged downstream of the switching apparatus ( 18 ) in the lines ( 22 , 23 ) leading to the actuator.

6. The hydraulic stabilizing device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the pressure sensors ( 24 , 25 ) are located between switching apparatus ( 18 ) and switching device ( 17 ).

7. A hydraulic stabilizing device for vehicles, having an actuator that is selectively acted on in opposite directions with a switching device, which is switched between a direct pass-through position and a crossed-over pass-through position, and, in series with the switching device, a switching apparatus, which is switched between a pass-through position and a blocking position as its basic position, located in the connection of connection lines to a pressure source and a reservoir, wherein the switching apparatus ( 18 ) comprises two separate switching valves ( 20 , 21 ) which are arranged in parallel with one another and of which one switching valve ( 20 ) has a blocking position and a direct pass-through position and the other switching valve ( 21 ) has a blocking position and a crossed-over pass-through position, and wherein the switching device ( 17 ) is arranged upstream of the switching apparatus ( 18 ).

8. A hydraulic stabilizing device for vehicles, having an actuator that is selectively acted on in opposite directions with a switching device, which is switched between a direct pass-through position and a crossed-over pass-through position, and, in series with the switching device, a switching apparatus, which is switched between a pass-through position and a blocking position as its basic position, located in the connection of connection lines to a pressure source and a reservoir, wherein the switching apparatus ( 18 ) comprises two separate switching valves ( 20 , 21 ) which are arranged in parallel with one another and of which one switching valve ( 20 ) has a blocking position and a direct pass-through position and the other switching valve ( 21 ) has a blocking position and a crossed-over pass-through position, and further comprising pressure sensors ( 24 , 25 ) arranged downstream of the switching apparatus in the lines leading to the actuator, and downstream of the switching device ( 19 ).
