Hydraulic valve arrangement
View Patent ↗The invention concerns a hydraulic valve arrangement with a supply connection arrangement, which has a high-pressure connection (P) and a low-pressure connection (T), a working connection arrangement, which has two working connections (A, B), which can be connected with a consumer, a directional valve and a compensation valve arranged between the directional valve and the supply connection arrangement, the pressure outlet of the compensation valve being connected with a pressure inlet of the directional valve. It is endeavoured to avoid dangerous situations, which occur because of uncontrolled pressures. For this purpose, it is ensured that the compensation valve has a relief outlet, which can be connected with the pressure outlet.
1. A hydraulic valve arrangement comprising a supply connection arrangement, having a high-pressure connection and a low-pressure connection, a working connection arrangement, having two working connections, which can be connected with a consumer, a directional valve and a compensation valve arranged between the directional valve and the supply connection arrangement, the pressure outlet of the compensation valve being connected with a pressure inlet of the directional valve, and wherein the compensation valve has a relief outlet, which can be connected with the pressure outlet,
wherein the relief outlet is connected with a load-sensing line, which is connected with the directional valve.
2. A valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the relief outlet is connected with the low-pressure connection (T).
3. A valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the compensation valve has a valve element, movable in opposite directions from a normal position, which performs a pressure control function when moved in one direction and a pressure relief function when moved in the opposite direction.
4. A valve arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein the valve element is in the form of a slide, which is acted upon on one side by the pressure in the load-sensing line and the force of a spring and on the other side by the pressure at the pressure outlet.
5. A valve arrangement according to claim 4 , wherein the slide has a longitudinal channel, which is connected with the pressure outlet via a diagonal bore and ends in a first pressure chamber, the longitudinal channel extending over the diagonal bore and being connectable with a second pressure chamber via a lockable connection, in which a relief pressure rules.
6. A valve arrangement according to claim 5 , wherein the second pressure chamber is connected with the load-sensing line.
7. A valve arrangement according to claim 5 , wherein the lockable opening is formed on the circumference of the slide and covered over a certain movement path by the wall of a housing bore, in which the slide is arranged.
8. A valve arrangement according to claim 7 , wherein the predetermined movement path is shorter than a path, after which the slide releases a connection between the pressure outlet and the high-pressure connection (P).
9. A valve arrangement according to claim 5 , further comprising a non-return valve arranged in the longitudinal channel between the opening and the diagonal bore.
10. A hydraulic valve arrangement comprising a supply connection arrangement, having a high-pressure connection and a low-pressure connection, a working connection arrangement, having two working connections, which can be connected with a consumer, a directional valve and a compensation valve arranged between the directional valve and the supply connection arrangement, the pressure outlet of the compensation valve being connected with a pressure inlet of the directional valve, and
wherein the compensation valve has a relief outlet, which can be connected with the pressure outlet,
wherein the compensation valve has a valve element, movable in opposite directions from a normal position, which performs a pressure control function when moved in one direction and a pressure relief function when moved in the opposite direction,
wherein the valve element is in the form of a slide, which is acted upon on one side by the pressure in a load-sensing line and the force of a spring and on the other side by the pressure at the pressure outlet, and wherein the slide has a longitudinal channel, which is connected with the pressure outlet via a diagonal bore and ends in a first pressure chamber, the longitudinal channel extending over the diagonal bore and being connectable with a second pressure chamber via a lockable connection, in which a relief pressure rules.
11. A valve arrangement according to claim 10 , wherein the relief outlet is connected with the low-pressure connection.
12. A valve arrangement according to claim 10 , wherein the relief outlet is connected with a load-sensing line, which is connected with the directional valve.
13. A valve arrangement according to claim 10 , wherein the second pressure chamber is connected with the load-sensing line.
14. A valve arrangement according to claim 10 , wherein the lockable opening is formed on the circumference of the slide and covered over a certain movement path by the wall of a housing bore, in which the slide is arranged.
15. A valve arrangement according to claim 14 , wherein the predetermined movement path is shorter than a path, after which the slide releases a connection between the pressure outlet and the high-pressure connection (P).
16. A valve arrangement according to claim 10 , further comprising a non-return valve arranged in the longitudinal channel between the opening and the diagonal bore.
