Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a field of radial piston hydraulic device technology, and in particularly to a four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution and a working method thereof.


BACKGROUND

A radial piston hydraulic device is an extremely important actuator in a hydraulic system, which is widely used in construction machinery, construction machinery, mining machinery, and other fields. Common commercial radial piston hydraulic devices include hydraulic motors and hydraulic pumps, which are characterized by low speed and high torque. A radial piston pump provides power to the hydraulic system by outputting oil with a certain pressure. A radial piston motor outputs a certain torque and speed to outside, making an actuator to do work on the outside. Performance of the hydraulic motors and the hydraulic pumps directly affects performance of hydraulic systems.


There are three main flow distribution methods of the radial piston hydraulic device: shaft distribution method, end face distribution method, and valve distribution method. Both the shaft distribution method and the end face distribution method enable the radial piston hydraulic device to switch between a pump state and a motor state. When a torque is input, the radial piston hydraulic device works in the pump state, and outputs fluid with high pressure to outside. When a high-pressure fluid is input, the radial piston hydraulic device works in the motor state, and at this time, the radial piston hydraulic device outputs torque and speed to the outside. However, there are inevitable clearances in the radial piston hydraulic device with these two distribution methods, wear caused by the working process cannot be automatically compensated, resulting in a higher risk of leakage under high-pressure conditions, which limits the maximum working pressure of the radial piston hydraulic device.


The CN patent application No. CN115898748A discloses a radial piston hydraulic device and a working method for controlling flow distribution of two valves with a single group of oil-ways, but the application only realizes one-way rotation of a pump or a motor thereof, and cannot realize two-way rotation of the pump and the motor.


SUMMARY

The present disclosure provides a four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution, where a structure thereof is simple, and operation is convenient. The present disclosure aims to solve a problem that the conventional radial piston hydraulic device can only realize the unidirectional rotation of the pump or the motor device and cannot realize the two-way rotation of the pump and the motor.


The present disclosure adopts the following scheme:


The present disclosure provides a four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution. The four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution includes a housing, plunger assemblies, an eccentric spindle rotatably disposed on the housing, pilot-operated check valves one-to-one corresponding to the plunger assemblies, and two-way cartridge valves one-to-one corresponding to the plunger assemblies.


The housing defines plunger cavities, an eccentric spindle cavity, pilot-operated check valve cavities, two-way cartridge valve cavities, high-pressure oil-ways, low-pressure oil-ways, and control oil-ways therein.

Each first high-pressure oil cavity is communicated with a corresponding plunger cavity. Each first low-pressure oil cavity is communicated with the low-pressure ring groove. Each first control oil cavity is alternately communicated with the first distribution semi-ring groove and the second distribution semi-ring groove. When each first control oil cavity and each first high-pressure oil cavity are subjected to high pressure simultaneously, each first high-pressure oil cavity is communicated with a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity. Each of the two-way cartridge valves comprises a second control oil cavity, a second high-pressure oil cavity, and a second low-pressure oil cavity.

Furthermore, the reversing slide valve comprises a valve spool. A first stop block, a second stop block, and a third stop block are disposed on the valve spool. A communicating groove is defined between each two adjacent stop blocks, and each communicating groove is configured to enable the high-pressure ring groove to switch between being communicated with the first distribution ring groove and being communicated with the second distribution ring groove when the valve spool slides, and to enable the low-pressure ring groove to switch between being communicated with the second distribution ring groove and being communicated with the third distribution ring groove.

Furthermore, each of the pilot-operated check valves comprises a first valve body and a second valve body, and each second valve body is disposed in a corresponding first valve body.

Furthermore, a first control oil-way of the housing, the first oil hole, and a second control oil-way of the housing are communicated, or, the first control oil-way of the housing, the second oil hole, and the second control oil-way of the housing are communicated.


The present disclosure further provides a working method of the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution mentioned above. Specifically, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is configured as a hydraulic motor, the high-pressure main port is connected with a pressure oil source. The high-pressure main port is an oil inlet channel, and the low-pressure main port is an oil outlet channel.


When the reversing slide valve is located at a first end of the reversing slide valve cavity, one of the plunger assemblies is located at a topmost position. Low-pressure oil is introduced into a corresponding second control oil cavity and a corresponding pilot-operated check valve cavity.


High-pressure oil flows through the high-pressure main port, a corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity, and a corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity and enters a corresponding plunger cavity. The high-pressure oil in the corresponding plunger cavity pushes a corresponding plunger to move downward, so that a volume of the corresponding plunger cavity increases, so as to drive the eccentric spindle to do positive circular motion until the one of the plunger assemblies reaches a bottommost position.


When the one of the plunger assemblies is located in the bottommost position, the eccentric spindle and the distribution shaft forwardly rotate 180 degrees, so that the high-pressure oil is introduced into the corresponding second control oil cavity and the corresponding pilot-operated check valve cavity. Under the thrust of other plunger assemblies and an inertial force of the eccentric spindle, the one of the plunger assemblies moves upward to reduce the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity. Oil in the corresponding plunger cavity flows out from the low-pressure main port after passing through a corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity and a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity, so as to realize periodic movement of the one of the plunger assemblies. Reciprocating motion of the plunger assemblies causes the eccentric spindle to continuously output forward torque to convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy.


When the reversing slide valve is located at a second end of the reversing slide valve cavity, the high-pressure oil flows through the high-pressure main port, a corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity, and a corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity and enters the corresponding plunger cavity. The high-pressure oil in the corresponding plunger cavity pushes the corresponding plunger to move downward to increase the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity, and drives the eccentric spindle to do reverse circular motion until the one of the plunger assemblies reaches the bottommost position.


After a reverse rotation of 180 degrees, under the thrust of the other plunger assemblies and the inertial force of the eccentric spindle, the one of the plunger assemblies moves upward to reduce the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity flows out from the low-pressure main port after passing through the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity and the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity, so as to realize the periodic movement of the one of the plunger assemblies. The reciprocating motion of the plunger assemblies causes the eccentric spindle to continuously output reverse torque to convert the hydraulic energy into the mechanical energy.


The present disclosure further provides a working method of the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution mentioned above. Specifically, in the working method, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution is configured as a hydraulic pump, the high-pressure main port is connected with a high-pressure oil tank or a hydraulic load. The high-pressure main port is an oil outlet channel, the low-pressure main port is connected with an oil tank, and the low-pressure main port is an oil inlet channel.


When the reversing slide valve is located at a first end of the reversing slide valve cavity, the eccentric spindle rotates in reverse to drive one of the plunger assemblies to move downward from a topmost position, so that a volume of a corresponding plunger cavity increases to generate a vacuum. At this time. a pressure in the corresponding plunger cavity is lower than a pressure of a low-pressure oil tank. oil in the low-pressure oil tank flows into the corresponding plunger cavity through the low-pressure main port, and a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity and a corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity until the one of the plunger assemblies moves to a bottommost position. During this process, the eccentric spindle drives the distribution shaft to reversely rotate 180 degrees. The eccentric spindle continues to reversely rotate and the one of the plunger assemblies moves upward to reduce a volume of the corresponding plunger cavity and increase a pressure thereof. The pressure of the corresponding plunger cavity is greater than a pressure in the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity flows through a corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity and a corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity and enters the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load to realize an oil discharge movement of the one of the plunger assemblies. Through a reverse rotation of the eccentric spindle, low-pressure oil is sucked into each of the plunger cavities, is converted into high-pressure oil, and is discharged, so mechanical energy is converted into hydraulic energy.


When the reversing slide valve is located at a second end of the reversing slide valve cavity, the eccentric spindle rotates forward to drive the one of the plunger assemblies to move downward from the topmost position, so that the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity increases, and the vacuum is generated. At this time, the pressure in the corresponding plunger cavity is lower than the pressure in the low-pressure oil tank, the oil in the low-pressure oil tank flows into the corresponding plunger cavity through the low-pressure main port, the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity, and the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity until the one of the plunger assemblies moves to the bottommost position. During this process, the eccentric spindle drives the distribution shaft to forwardly rotate 180 degrees.


The eccentric spindle continues to rotate forward, so the one of the plunger assemblies moves upward to reduce the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity and increase the pressure thereof. The pressure of the corresponding plunger cavity is greater than the pressure in the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity flows through the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity and the corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity and enters the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load to realize the oil discharge movement of the one of the plunger assemblies. Through the forward rotation of the eccentric spindle, the plunger assemblies are driven to suck the low-pressure oil into each of the plunger cavities, and the low-pressure oil is then converted into the high-pressure oil and is discharged, so that the mechanical energy is converted into the hydraulic energy.


In the present disclosure, the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution adopts the pilot-operated check valves and the two-way cartridge valves for flow distribution, so as to realize a distribution method of the present disclosure. Each of the pilot-operated check valves and a corresponding two-way cartridge valve that correspond to each plunger are controlled by a same control oil-way, which simplifies the control oil-ways of the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device. In addition, by arranging the distribution shaft that is inserted into the eccentric spindle and the confluence plate with the reversing slide valve therein, when the pilot-operated check valves and two-way cartridge valves perform flow distribution, a problem that the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device cannot rotate bidirectionally when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is serves as the hydraulic pump or the hydraulic motor is solved. The pilot-operated check valves have excellent sealing performance, and the two-way cartridge valves have excellent sealing performance and large valve diameter, so that the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is capable of being used in high-pressure environments and achieves high volumetric efficiency. The four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device realizes bidirectional rotation under the condition of working as the hydraulic motor and the hydraulic pump, solving a problem of limitations of valve flow distribution in the hydraulic motor and the hydraulic pump,

A plunger 21 and a plunger end cover 1 form each of the plunger cavities 20. As shown in FIG. 2, in the embodiment, there are five plunger end covers 1 and five plunger cavities 20. Each of the pilot-operated check valves 7 and a corresponding two-way cartridge valve 10 are correspondingly disposed on a corresponding plunger cavity 20. Each of the pilot-operated check valves 7 and each of the two-way cartridge valves 10 are respectively disposed in a corresponding pilot-operated check valve cavity 8 and a corresponding two-way cartridge valve cavity 9. The number of the plunger cavities 20 is not limited thereto, and there may be 8 or 10 plunger cavities 20. The eccentric spindle cavity 23 is configured for installing the eccentric spindle 12.

When the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is served as a hydraulic motor, each plunger 21 slides up and down in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 and drives the eccentric spindle 12 to rotate by the corresponding connecting rod sliding shoe 22 and the corresponding return ring 31. Alternatively, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is served as a hydraulic pump, the eccentric spindle 12 rotates and drives each plunger 21 to slide up and down in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 by the corresponding connecting rod sliding shoe 22 and the corresponding return ring 31.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 4, in the embodiment, there are 5 pilot-operated check valves 7, all of the pilot-operated check valves 7 are distributed on one side (i.e., an F2 side shown in FIG. 2) of the housing 2. Each of the pilot-operated check valves 7 comprises a first valve body 44, a second valve body 51, a first valve core 48, and a first elastic piece 47. Each second valve body 51 defines a first movable cavity 49, a first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and a first low-pressure oil cavity 38 thereon. Each first valve body 44 defines a corresponding first control oil cavity 43. A first valve core 48 is movably disposed on each second valve body 51, and each first valve core 48 is configured to control on-offs between each first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38. Each first high-pressure oil cavity 35 is communicated with a corresponding plunger cavity 20. Each first low-pressure oil cavity 38 is communicated with a low-pressure main port 30. Each first control oil cavity 43 is alternately connected with the first distribution semi-ring groove 75 and the second distribution semi-ring groove 79. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, each first valve body 44 defines a first ring groove 46, and a first through hole 45 is on the first ring groove 46, so that each first ring groove 46 is communicated with a corresponding first control oil cavity 43. Each second valve body 51 defines a second ring groove 50, and a second through hole 39 is on the second ring groove 50 thereof, so that each second ring groove 50 is communicated with a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38. The first valve core 48 of each of the pilot-operated check valves 7 includes a valve core column 40, a first valve core block 37, and a second valve core block 41. Each first valve core block 37 and a corresponding second valve core block 41 are fixedly connected with two ends of the valve core post 40 respectively. Each valve core column 40 is movably sleeved in a corresponding first movable cavity 49 and is configured to drive a corresponding first valve core block 37 to move synchronously with a corresponding second valve core block 41. Each second valve core block 41 is located in a corresponding first control oil cavity 43 and separates the corresponding first control oil cavity 43 into two independent valve body oil control cavities. Each first valve core block 37 is accommodated in a corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and is configured to control the on-offs of the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35. A first elastic piece 47 is disposed on each of the pilot-operated check valves 7, and each first elastic piece 47 is disposed between a corresponding second valve core block 41 and a corresponding second valve body 51. Each first valve core block 37 defines a first compressed surface 36, and each second valve core block 41 defines a second compressed surface 42. An area of each first compressed surface 36 is less than an area of each second compressed surface 42. Therefore, under a certain suitable pilot ratio, under a condition that each first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and a corresponding first control oil cavity 43 are subjected to high-pressure oil at the same time, each first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38 are opened.

As shown in FIG. 15 to FIG. 22, in another embodiment, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a working method of the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution. Specifically, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is served as the hydraulic motor, the high-pressure main port 32 is connected with a pressure oil source. The high-pressure main port 32 is an oil inlet channel, and the low-pressure main port 30 is an oil outlet channel. The embodiment takes one of the plunger assemblies 11 as an example for illustration.


As shown in FIG. 15 to FIG. 22, when the reversing slide valve 101 is located on one side away from the compression spring 100, the reversing slide valve 101 is in contact with the limiting screw 102 under an elastic force of the compression spring 100, so that the reversing slide valve 101 is in a stable position. At this time, the high-pressure ring groove 65 is communicated with the second distribution ring groove 78, and the low-pressure ring groove 66 is communicated with the third distribution ring groove 77. When the one of the plunger assemblies 11 is located at a topmost position, a first part of the high-pressure oil flows into the high-pressure ring groove 65 from the high-pressure main port 32, and enters the first high-pressure oil-way 90 of the housing. The first high-pressure oil-way 90 of the housing is communicated with each second high-pressure oil cavity 52. A second part of high-pressure oil enters high-pressure ring groove 65 from the high-pressure main port 32, enters the reversing slide valve cavity 72 from high-pressure ring groove hole 70, enters the second distribution ring groove 78 again, enters the manifold control oil-way 71 after flowing through the first oil hole 82 of the distribution shaft again, and then enters the second control oil-way 95 of the housing. The second control oil-way 95 of the housing is communicated with a corresponding second control oil cavity 59. The distribution shaft 6 rotates together with the eccentric spindle 12, so the first control oil-way 105 of the housing and the second control oil-way 95 of the housing are switched between high pressure and low pressure.


The first control oil-way 105, the first oil hole 82 or the second oil hole 81, the second control oil-way 95 are communicated, so the first control oil-way 105 of the housing and the second control oil-way 95 of the housing are in a high pressure state or a low pressure state at the same time. When the first control oil-way 105 of the housing and the second control oil-way 95 of the housing are in the low pressure state a corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52 is communicated with a corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 53, the high-pressure oil flows through the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55 and the first oil-way 92 of the plunger end cove, and enters the corresponding plunger cavity 20. The high-pressure oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 pushes the one of the plunger assemblies 11 to move downward. When the one of the plunger assemblies 11 is located in the bottommost position, the eccentric spindle 12 and the distribution shaft 6 forwardly rotate 180 degrees, and the first control oil-way 105 of the housing and the second control oil-way 95 of the housing are in the high pressure state. The corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52 and the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55 are closed, and the first control oil-way 105 of the housing and corresponding first control oil cavity 43 are communicated. At this time, a corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and a corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38 are communicated, oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 flows out from the low-pressure main port 30 after passing through a second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover, a third oil-way 94 of the plunger end cover, a second high-pressure oil-way 93 of the housing, the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35, the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38, the low-pressure oil-way 107 of the housing, and the low-pressure ring groove 66. Reciprocating motion of the plunger assemblies 11 causes the eccentric spindle to continuously output forward torque to convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy.


When the hydraulic motor is to reversely rotate, the high-pressure oil is introduced into, a control oil port 103, and the high-pressure oil pushes the reversing slide valve 101 to move to one side close to the compression spring 100. The reversing slide valve 101 is in a stable position after moving to a limiting step 106. At this time, the high-pressure ring groove 65 is communicated with the first distribution ring groove 76, and the low-pressure ring groove 66 is communicated with the second distribution ring groove 78. The high-pressure oil flows through the high-pressure main port 32, a corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52, and a corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55 and enters the corresponding plunger cavity 20. The high-pressure oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 pushes the corresponding plunger 21 moves downward so as to increase the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity 20, and drives the eccentric spindle 12 to do reverse circular motion until the one of the plunger assemblies 11 reaches the bottommost position. After the eccentric spindle 12 reversely rotates for 180 degrees, under the thrust of other plunger assemblies 11 and the inertial force of the eccentric spindle 12, the one of the plunger assemblies 11 moves upward, so that the volume of the corresponding plunger cavity 20 is reduced. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 flows out from the low-pressure main port 30 after passing through the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35 and the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38, to realize the periodic movement of the one of the plunger assemblies 11. The reciprocating motion of the plunger assemblies 11 causes the eccentric spindle 12 to continuously output reverse torque to convert the hydraulic energy into the mechanical energy.


In other words, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is served as the hydraulic motor, flow direction of the high-pressure oil is: the pressure oil source→the high-pressure main port 32→the high-pressure ring groove 65→the first high-pressure oil-way 90→the corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52→the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55→the first oil-way 92 of the plunger end cover→the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover→the plunger cavity 20→the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover→the third oil-way 94 of the plunger end cover→the second high-pressure oil-way 93 of the housing→the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35→the low-pressure cavity 38→the low-pressure oil-way 107 of the housing→the low-pressure ring groove 66→the low-pressure main port 30.


As shown in FIG. 15 to FIG. 22, the embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a working method of the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device having two types of valves for flow distribution. Specifically, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is served as a hydraulic pump, the high-pressure main port 32 is connected with a high-pressure oil tank or a hydraulic load. The high-pressure main port 30 is an oil outlet channel, the low-pressure main port is connected with an oil tank, and the low-pressure main port is an oil inlet channel. The embodiment takes one of the plunger assemblies 11 as an example for illustration.


When the reversing slide valve 101 is located on one side away from the compression spring 100, the high-pressure ring groove 65 is communicated with the second distribution ring groove 78, and the low-pressure ring groove 66 is communicated with the third distribution ring groove 77. The eccentric spindle 12 reversely rotates and drives the one of the plunger assemblies 11 to move downward from the topmost position. The volume of the corresponding plunger cavity 20 increases, and a vacuum is generated. A pressure in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 is lower than a pressure in the low-pressure oil tank. The low-pressure oil of low-pressure oil tank enters the second high-pressure oil-way 93 of the housing through the low-pressure main port 30, the low-pressure ring groove 66, the low-pressure oil-way 107 of the housing, the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38 of a corresponding pilot-operated check valve, the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35, and enters the corresponding plunger cavity 20 after passing through the third oil-way 94 of the plunger end cover and the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover.


The low-pressure oil pushes the one of the plunger assemblies 11 to move down until the one of the plunger assemblies 11 moves to the bottommost position. At this time, the eccentric spindle 12 drives the distribution shaft 6 to reversely rotate 180 degrees. The eccentric spindle 12 continues to reversely rotate, and the one of the plunger assemblies 11 begins to move upward. The volume of the corresponding plunger cavity 20 decreases, and the pressure thereof increases. The pressure of the corresponding plunger cavity 20 is greater than the pressure of the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 flows through the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover and the first oil-way 92 of the plunger end cover and enters the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55. Then, the oil enters the first high-pressure oil-way 90 of the housing and the high-pressure ring groove 65 from the corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52. Then, the oil enters the high-pressure main port 32, and finally enters the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load place, realizes the oil discharge movement of the one of the plunger assemblies 11. The plunger assemblies reciprocate to convert the mechanical energy into the hydraulic energy.


When the hydraulic pump forwardly rotates, the high-pressure oil is introduced into the control oil port 103. The high-pressure oil pushes the reversing slide valve 101 to move to one side close to the compression spring 100. After the reversing slide valve 101 moves to the limiting step 106, the reversing slide valve 101 is in a stable position. At this time, the high-pressure ring groove 65 is communicated with the first distribution ring groove 76, and the low-pressure ring groove 66 is communicated with the second distribution ring groove 78. The eccentric spindle 12 rotates forward and drives the one of the plunger assemblies 11 to move downward from the topmost position. The volume of the corresponding plunger cavity 20 increases, and the vacuum is generated. The pressure in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 is lower than the pressure in the low-pressure oil tank.


The oil in the low-pressure oil tank enters the second high-pressure oil-way 93 of the housing after passing through the low-pressure main port 30, the low-pressure ring groove 66, the low-pressure oil-way 107 of the housing, the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38 of the corresponding pilot-operated check valve, and the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35. Then, the oil flows through the third oil-way 94 and the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover and enters the corresponding plunger cavity 20. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 pushes the one of the plunger assemblies 11 to move down until the one of the plunger assemblies 11 moves to the bottommost position. At this time, the eccentric spindle 12 drives the distribution shaft 6 to forwardly rotate 180 degrees. The eccentric spindle 12 continues to forwardly rotate, and the one of the plunger assemblies 11 begins to move upward. The volume of the corresponding plunger cavity 20 decreases, and the pressure therein increases. The pressure in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 is greater than the pressure in the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load. The oil in the corresponding plunger cavity 20 flows through the second oil-way 91 and the first oil-way 92 of the plunger end cover, and enters the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55. Then, The oil enters the first high-pressure oil-way 90 and the high-pressure ring groove 65 of the housing from the corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52 again. Finally, the oil enters the high-pressure main port 32, and then enters the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load, so as to realize the oil discharge movement of the one of the plunger assemblies 11. The plunger assemblies reciprocate to convert the mechanical energy into the hydraulic energy.


In other words, when the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is served as the hydraulic pump, the flow direction of the oil is: the low-pressure oil tank→low-pressure main port 30→the low-pressure ring groove 66→the low-pressure oil-way 107 of the housing→the corresponding first low-pressure oil cavity 38→the corresponding first high-pressure oil cavity 35→the second high-pressure oil-way 93 of the housing→the third oil-way 94 of the plunger end cover→the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover→the corresponding plunger cavity 20→the second oil-way 91 of the plunger end cover→the first oil-way 92 of the plunger end cover→the corresponding second low-pressure oil cavity 55→the corresponding second high-pressure oil cavity 52→the first high-pressure oil-way 90 of the housing→the high-pressure ring groove 65→the high-pressure main port 32→the high-pressure oil tank or the hydraulic load.


The embodiment of the present disclosure adopts a dual valve flow distribution scheme, and the control oil-ways of the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is simplified. At the same time, the four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device realizes the two-way rotation as the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor, solves a problem that a conventional pilot-operated check valve or a conventional two-way cartridge valve distribution cannot realize the two-way rotation as the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor.
