Hydraulic steering
The invention concerns a hydraulic steering with a steering initiator, a steering unit with feedback properties, which can be activated by the steering initiator, the steering unit having a supply connection arrangement with a pressure connection (P) and a tank connection (T) and a working connection arrangement with two working connections (L, R), an auxiliary-force operated steering valve, which is located in parallel with the steering unit between the supply connection arrangement (P, T) and the working connection arrangement (L, R), and a feedback suppressing device, which is active, when the steering valve is active. It is endeavored to find a simple manner of ensuring the priority of the steering initiator over the steering valve. For this purpose, the steering initiator interacts with an activation sensor, which deactivates the feedback suppressing device on an activation of the steering initiator.
1. A hydraulic steering with a steering initiator, a steering unit with feedback properties, which can be activated by the steering initiator,
an auxiliary-force operated steering valve comprised of a supply connection arrangement having a pressure connection, a tank connection, and a working connection arrangement with two working connections,
the steering unit connected to said supply connection arrangement having a pressure connection, a tank connection, and connected to said working connection arrangement with two working connections, said auxiliary-force operated steering valve and said steering unit parallel connected between said supply connection arrangement and said working connection arrangement, and
a feedback suppressing device, which is active, when the steering valve is active, wherein the steering initiator interacts with an activation sensor, which deactivates the feedback suppressing device on an activation of the steering initiator.
2. The steering in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the steering initiator exists in the form of a steering handwheel, which is connected with the steering unit via a steering shaft, the activation sensor determining an activation of the steering handwheel.
3. The steering in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the activation sensor interacts with the steering shaft.
4. The steering in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the activation sensor is a torque sensor.
5. The steering in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the activation sensor is a rotation angle sensor.
6. The steering in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the feedback suppressing device has a change-over valve acting upon the working connection arrangement.
7. The steering in accordance with claim 6 , wherein in an activated position the change-over valve blocks at least one working connection (L, R).
8. A hydraulic steering with a steering initiator, a steering unit with feedback properties, which can be activated by the steering initiator,
an auxiliary-force operated steering valve comprised of a supply connection arrangement having a pressure connection, a tank connection, and a working connection arrangement with two working connections,
the steering unit connected to said supply connection arrangement comprised of a pressure connection, a tank connection, and two working connections connected to said working connection arrangement,
said auxiliary-force operated steering valve and said steering unit parallel connected between said supply connection arrangement and said working connection arrangement, and
a feedback suppressing device, which is active, when the steering valve is active, wherein the steering initiator interacts with an activation sensor, which deactivates the feedback suppressing device on an activation of the steering initiator,
wherein the working connections of said auxiliary-force operated steering valve and said parallel connected steering unit are connected directly to a steering motor.
