Hydraulic valve arrangement
View Patent ↗The invention concerns a hydraulic valve arrangement ( 1 ) having at least two working connections (A, B), a check valve ( 5, 6 ) being allocated to each working connection (A, B), and a pressure relief valve ( 7, 8 ) being allocated to each check valve ( 5, 6 ), each pressure relief valve ( 7, 8 ) being connected to a control pressure passage ( 17, 18 ). The valve arrangement shall ensure a reliable, pressure-less lowering, also in connection with single-actuated consumers, and further enable a pressure-less float position. For this purpose, the check valves ( 5, 6 ) can be opened by means of tappets ( 20, 21 ), whose sides facing away from the check valves ( 5, 6 ) are ending in a pressure chamber ( 22 ), which is connected to the control pressure passage ( 17, 18 ) of one of the pressure relief valves ( 7, 8 ).
1. A hydraulic valve arrangement having at least two working connections, a check valve being allocated to each working connection, and a pressure relief valve being allocated to each check valve, each pressure relief valve being connected to a control pressure passage, wherein the check valves can be opened by means of tappets, whose sides facing away from the check valves are ending in a pressure chamber, which is connected to the control pressure passage of one of the pressure relief valves.
2. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure chamber is connected to the control pressure passage that is pressure relieved during raising.
3. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the hydraulic valve arrangement has a control valve, which is arranged between a supply connection arrangement and the working connections.
4. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein the control valve is connected to the check valves via working passages and to the pressure relief valves via the control pressure passages.
5. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure in the control pressure passages depends on the position of the control valve.
6. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein a mechanical contact between the tappets exists, when the pressure chamber is pressure-less.
7. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the side of each tappet facing the check valve is acted upon by the pressure in the corresponding working passage.
8. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the tappets and the valve elements of the check valves have a common movement axis.
9. The hydraulic valve arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the check valves can be acted upon in the closing direction by a spring and a reduced load pressure and in the opening direction by the tappets and the load pressure.
