CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to hydraulic control technologies, and in particular, to a hydraulic control system.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Generally, an hydraulic control apparatus or device is applied to synchronous control and independent operation of two actuators.


Conventional synchronous control methods include mechanical synchronization of an independent torsion beam structure, synchronization of convergence and collection control, synchronization of a motor, volume synchronization of series hydraulic cylinders, closed-loop synchronization of electrical rate control, and the like. The foregoing synchronous control principle cannot meet the requirement for independent operation except the rate control. However, the rate control is relatively high in costs.


The present invention provides a hydraulic system, which can resolve the problem that currently two actuators need to independently act to adjust an angle or a position relationship and further need to synchronously act in the case of the adjusted relative angle or position relationship.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

According to an aspect of the present invention, a hydraulic control system is provided, including a first hydraulic cylinder, a second hydraulic cylinder, and an fluid supply apparatus, where the fluid supply apparatus is provided with a fluid conveying port and a fluid returning port, and the hydraulic control system further includes: a first control valve bank, where the first hydraulic cylinder is connected to the fluid conveying port and the fluid returning port by using the first control valve bank, and the first control valve bank is configured to independently control the first hydraulic cylinder; a second control valve bank, where the second hydraulic cylinder is connected to the fluid conveying port and the fluid returning port by using the second control valve bank, and the second control valve bank is configured to independently control the second hydraulic cylinder; a third control valve bank, where one port of the first hydraulic cylinder and one port of the second hydraulic cylinder are connected in series, the other port of the first hydraulic cylinder and the other port of the second hydraulic cylinder are connected to the fluid conveying port and the fluid returning port by using the third control valve bank respectively, and the third control valve bank is configured to synchronously control the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder; and a first check valve, where the first check valve is disposed on a series-connection fluid path of the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder, and a sensing connection of the first check valve is connected to the third control valve bank.


The hydraulic control system provided in the present invention can independently or synchronously control the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder. The first control valve bank controls telescopic action of the first hydraulic cylinder, the second control valve bank controls telescopic action of the second hydraulic cylinder, and the third control valve bank controls synchronous telescopic action of the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder. In synchronous control, the first hydraulic cylinder, the second hydraulic cylinder, the third control valve bank, and the fluid supply apparatus are connected in series. Synchronous volume control is implemented through series connection of the hydraulic cylinders, and has quite high synchronization precision, which is measured to be up to two percent. The present invention differs from the prior art mainly in that a function of combining independent action with synchronous action is implemented. Compared with the prior art in which synchronous action hydraulic cylinders can only operate synchronously and independent action hydraulic cylinders can only act independently, the present invention differs mainly in that two hydraulic cylinders are used for independent action without requiring two actuation hydraulic cylinders for synchronization.

Therefore, synchronous telescopic action of the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder is controlled by controlling the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve.

When the second solenoid valve is energized, the first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder extend synchronously.

Therefore, the second check valve and the third check valve ensure stable supply by a system fluid path.

Therefore, independent telescopic action of the first hydraulic cylinder is controlled by controlling the third solenoid valve and the fourth solenoid valve. When the third solenoid valve is energized, the first hydraulic cylinder retracts. When the fourth solenoid valve is energized, the first hydraulic cylinder extends.


In some embodiments, the first control valve bank further includes a fourth check valve and a fifth check valve, where the third port of the third solenoid valve is connected to one port of the first hydraulic cylinder by using the fourth check valve, and the third port of the fourth solenoid valve is connected to the other port of the first hydraulic cylinder by using the fifth check valve; a sensing connection of the fourth check valve is connected between the fourth solenoid valve and the fifth check valve, and a sensing connection of the fifth check valve is connected between the third solenoid valve and the fourth check valve.


Therefore, the fourth check valve and the fifth check valve ensure stable supply by a system fluid path.


In some implementations, the third port of the first solenoid valve is connected to one port of the first hydraulic cylinder by converging between the third solenoid valve and the first hydraulic cylinder; and the second port of the first solenoid valve is connected to the fluid returning port by converging between the third solenoid valve and the fluid returning port.


Therefore, an fluid path layout is simplified, a pipeline length is reduced, and costs are reduced.

Therefore, independent telescopic action of the second hydraulic cylinder is controlled by controlling the fifth solenoid valve and the sixth solenoid valve. When the fifth solenoid valve is energized, the second hydraulic cylinder retracts. When the sixth solenoid valve is energized, the second hydraulic cylinder extends.


In some embodiments, the second control valve bank further includes a sixth check valve and a seventh check valve, where the third port of the fifth solenoid valve is connected to one port of the second hydraulic cylinder by using the sixth check valve, and the third port of the sixth solenoid valve is connected to the other port of the second hydraulic cylinder by using the fifth check valve; a sensing connection of the sixth check valve is connected between the sixth solenoid valve and the seventh check valve, and a sensing connection of the seventh check valve is connected between the fifth solenoid valve and the sixth check valve.


Therefore, the sixth check valve and the seventh check valve ensure stable supply by a system fluid path.


In some embodiments, the third port of the second solenoid valve is connected to one port of the second hydraulic cylinder by converging between the sixth solenoid valve and the second hydraulic cylinder; and the second port of the second solenoid valve is connected to the fluid returning port by converging between the sixth solenoid valve and the fluid returning port.


Therefore, an fluid path layout is simplified, a pipeline length is reduced, and costs are reduced.
