Driving device, particularly a lifting device for a working vehicle
View Patent ↗The invention concerns a driving device, particularly a lifting device for a working vehicle, with a hydraulic drive, in the form of a motor with a first connection and a second connection, a pump, a control valve arrangement between the pump and the drive, and an operating device with at least one operating element with a setting area, with which at least one parameter of the drive can be set. It is endeavoured to provide a simple manner of extending the functionality of the lifting device. For this purpose, it is ensured that the control valve arrangement is optionally controlling the drive to be single-acting or double-acting and the setting area has a first section, in which the drive is controlled to be single-acting and a second section, in which the drive is controlled to be double-acting.
1. A driving device comprising:
a hydraulic drive, in the form of a motor with a first connection and a second connection;
a pump;
a control valve arrangement between the pump and the drive; and
an operating device, having at least one operating element with a setting area, with which at least one parameter of the drive can be set;
wherein the control valve arrangement controls the drive to be at least one of single-acting and double-acting, the setting area having a first section, in which the drive is controlled to be single-acting and a second section, in which the drive is controlled to be double-acting; and
wherein the operating element sets the lowering speed of the drive.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and the second sections are adjoining each other.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the second section is arranged at the end of the setting area, at which the lowering speed is low.
4. The device according to claim 3 , wherein the second section has a limit, at which the lowering speed amounts to maximum 20% of the maximum lowering speed.
5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the control valve arrangement has a control valve and a changeover valve.
6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the operating element controls the changeover valve.
7. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the changeover valve is pilot-controlled, and the operating element acts upon a pilot valve.
8. The device according to claim 7 , wherein the control valve forms the pilot valve.
9. The device according to claim 6 , wherein the changeover valve is a solenoid valve and in the second section the operating element produces a control signal for the solenoid valve.
10. A driving device comprising:
a hydraulic drive, in the form of a motor with a first connection and a second connection;
a pump;
a control valve arrangement between the pump and the drive; and
an operating device, having at least one operating element with a setting area, with which at least one parameter of the drive can be set;
wherein the control valve arrangement controls the drive to be at least one of single-acting and double-acting, the setting area having a first section, in which the drive is controlled to be single-acting and a second section, in which the drive is controlled to be double-acting; and
wherein the operating device renders predetermined parameters inactive, when the operating element is in the second section.
11. A driving device comprising:
a hydraulic drive, in the form of a motor with a first connection and a second connection;
a pump;
a control valve arrangement between the pump and the drive; and
an operating device, having at least one operating element with a setting area, with which at least one parameter of the drive can be set;
wherein the control valve arrangement controls the drive to be at least one of single-acting and double-acting, the setting area having a first section, in which the drive is controlled to be single-acting and a second section, in which the drive is controlled to be double-acting; and
wherein a warning display is activated, when the operating element is in the second section.
