Ⅰ. Basic Principle of Hydraulic Transmission

● A machine is basically made up of four parts, including prime motor,


transmission device, working mechanism, and assistant mechanism.

The purpose of prime motor is to change various forms of energy into


mechanical energy, which is power supply of the machine. Working
mechanism works outside with mechanical energy. Transmission device
between prime motor and working mechanism transfers power and
controls.

There are many transmission types. Transmission can be divided into


mechanical transmission, power transmission, pneumatic transmission and
liquid transmission by parts or working medium.

19/05/2015
Ⅰ. Basic Principle of Hydraulic Transmission

● Transferring and controlling energy with liquid as working medium is


called liquid transmission.

It can be divided into hydraulic pressure transmission and hydraulic


transmission by principle. Hydraulic pressure transmission mainly
delivers power with liquid pressure. Hydraulic transmission mainly
transfers power with kinetic energy of liquid.

Ⅱ. Composition of Hydraulic Transmission System
1. Hydraulic Power Supply
Components converting mechanical energy into liquid pressure. Typical
component is hydraulic pump.

2. Control Components
Control force, movement speed and direction actuating components by
controlling pressure, flow quantity and direction of fluid. Pressure, flow
quantity and direction usually control hydraulic valve.

3. Actuating Components
Components converting liquid pressure into mechanical energy,
including hydraulic cylinder moving in a straight line and hydraulic
motor with rotation movement.

Ⅱ. Composition of Hydraulic Transmission System

4. Assistant Components
Other devices besides the above three components to guarantee
normal operation of the system in the system have delivering, storage,
heating, cooling, filtration, measurement and other functions, such as
pipeline, connector, fuel tank, radiator, filter, etc.

5. Working Medium
Deliver energy and signal with it.

19/05/2015
Ⅲ. Advantages of Hydraulic Transmission System
1. Unit power is light in weight, which means large force and torque can be obtained with
lighter equipment weight.
2. Small inertia, fast starting and braking due to its small volume and light weight.
3. Stepless speed regulation is easy during operating process with a large speed regulation
range.
4. Linear reciprocating motion can be easily achieved with the help of hydraulic cylinder with
simple structure.
5. Easy to realize automation
6. Easy to achieve overload protection. Work is safe and reliable.
7. Hydraulic transmission can layout transmission mechanism flexibly.
8. Liquid working medium with elasticity and vibration absorbing ability makes hydraulic
transmission smooth and reliable.
It can be lubricated by itself during operation. Easy heat dissipation and long service life.
9. Easy to realize standardization, serialization and universalization. Easy to design,
manufacture and market.

19/05/2015
Ⅳ. Disadvantages of Hydraulic Transmission System
1. Low transmission efficiency (75% ~ 80%). Leakage and environmental pollution.
2. Largely influenced by temperature change during operation.
3. Reliability of hydraulic system is still not as good as that of power transmission and
mechanical transmission.
4. Hydraulic components have high requirements to manufacturing accuracy and high
manufacturing cost. Use and maintenance require a certain professional knowledge and
a higher level of skill.
5. Acquisition and transfer of hydraulic energy is not as convenient as that of electricity.
Due to pressure loss and other reasons, hydraulic energy should not be transmitted
over a long distance.
6. Components, accessories and working medium in the hydraulic system work in a
closed system. Failures are difficult to discover in time. Failure causes are difficult to
determine.
7. Hydraulic transmission is sensitive to pollution of hydraulic oil and easy to have
failures.

and antioxidant and anti-rust . It is anti-corrosive and anti-oxidative type.
• HM Hydraulic Oil. HM Oil is developed from HL anti-corrosive and anti-oxidative
oil.
• HR Hydraulic Oil. HR Oil is HL Oil added with viscosity index additive, which
makes oil viscosity decrease with temperature change.

liquid filling;
3)
)New oil must be filtered before use;
4)

Ⅴ. Hydraulic Transmission Medium
5. Reasonable Use and Maintenance of Hydraulic Medium
● Monitoring of hydraulic oil of mineral oil type
Due to mechanical, chemical and physical effect, additive in oil will be
gradually consumed during use and oil will decay. Its performance will
gradually deteriorate, which is characterized by:
1)
)Changes of oil state, such as odor, color and appearance;
2)
)Point of flammability decreases. other oil may be mixed;
3)
)Mechanical impurities increase;
4)
)Viscosity changes;

5)

Ⅴ. Hydraulic Transmission Medium
5. Reasonable Use and Maintenance of Hydraulic Medium
● Replacing of hydraulic oil of mineral oil type
• For some main performance parameters of oil should be monitored periodically
and frequently. When deterioration reaches a certain degree, oil must be
replaced. At present, there are generally 3 methods to determine the oil
replacing period.
1) Specify fixed oil replacing period
Specify fixed oil replacing period according to equipment, condition and type of
oil and oil injection quantity, such as half a year, one year or operation of 1000
to 2000h;
2)
)Determine whether to replace oil according to experience and observation of oil
sample; and
3)
)Specify oil drainage index. Determine whether to replace oil according to test
result of oil sample;

6. Pollution and Protection of Hydraulic Oil
● Pollution of hydraulic oil is mainly caused by the following reasons.
1)
)If sand, scraps, abrasive materials, welding slag, rust slice, dust and other dirt in
pipelines of hydraulic system and hydraulic components are not removed in
washing before use, these dirt will enter hydraulic oil when hydraulic system
works.
2)
)External dust and sand, and oil lead flowing back into the tank pass the
repeatedly stretching piston rod during operation of hydraulic system and enter
hydraulic oil. In addition, dust, cotton lint and other things may enter hydraulic oil
during maintenance due to carelessness.
3)
)Hydraulic system itself also constantly produces dirt, which will directly enter
hydraulic oil, such as wear particles of metal and seal materials, particles
dropping form filter materials, jelly generated due to oxidative deterioration of
fiber and oil caused by oil temperature increase, etc.

Ⅴ. Hydraulic Transmission Medium
6. Pollution and Protection of Hydraulic Oil

● Harms of oil pollution


Serious hydraulic oil pollution will directly influence work performance of
hydraulic system, cause frequent failure of hydraulic system , and shorten
service life of hydraulic components. Main reason causing these risks are
particles in dirt. For hydraulic components, if these solid particles enter
components, wear of sliding parts of components will be intensified, orifice and
damping hole in hydraulic components may be blocked, or spool will be stuck,
causing hydraulic system failure. Water and air mixing will reduce lubrication
capacity of hydraulic oil reduction, accelerate oxidative deterioration, cause
corrosion, accelerate corrosion of hydraulic components, and make hydraulic
system vibrate or craw.

② Nominal diameter Unit of nominal diameter of hydraulic control valve is mm. A
certain nominal diameter represents a certain of flow capacity, which is
permissible maximum flow (nominal flow). It should be pointed out that, valves

2) Pressure reducing valve
As in the picture above, working principle of fixed pressure reducing valve can be considered according to
that of pilot operated overflow valve .
Compare pilot operated pressure reducing value and pilot operated overflow valve. They have the
following differences.
a. Pressure reducing valve keeps outlet pressure basically unchanged, and overflow valve keeps inlet
pressure basically unchanged.
b. When not working, inlet opening and outlet opening of pressure reducing valve are connected. Inlet
opening and outlet opening of overflow are not connected.
c. To ensure pressure setting value of outlet of pressure reducing valve is constant, its spring cavity of
pilot valve needs to be connected to external oil tank separately through drain port. Outlet of overflow
valve is connected to oil tank, so its spring cavity and oil leakage of pilot valve can be connected to
outlet through pass on the valve. It doesn’t need to be connected to external oil tank separately.
★ Other types of pressure reducing valves will not be described.

◆ DC power type: Small reversing impact. High tolerance level of


reversing frequency. Due to constant current, coil is not easy to burn out.
Working reliability is high, but structure is complicated.

★ Performance of hydraulic reversing valve
Hydraulic reversing valve changes position of valve core with oil pressure. It has
big starting force. When flow of hydraulic controlled oil is big, reversing impact is
big. To control movement speed of valve core and reduce impact, one-way
throttling device (called damper regulator) is usually installed in front of
hydraulic controlled pressure port.

2. Motor
1)
)Features of Motor
Hydraulic motor is a device converting fluid pressure into mechanical energy. In
principle, hydraulic pump can be used as hydraulic motor, and hydraulic motor
can be also used as hydraulic pump. In fact the same type of hydraulic pump
and hydraulic motor have similar structure, but by the two have different work
situation, which makes the two different in structure. Main differences are as
follows:

19/05/2015
Ⅷ. Hydraulic Actuating Components
1)
)Features of Motor

• Hydraulic motor generally needs forward and reversing rotating, so it should


have symmetry in the inside structure. Hydraulic pump usually rotates in single
direction. It doesn’t have this requirement.
• In order to reduce oil absorption resistance and radial force, inlet port of
hydraulic pump is generally larger than outlet port. Pressure in low-pressure
cavity of hydraulic motor is slightly above atmospheric pressure, so it doesn’t
have the above requirement.
• Hydraulic motor is required to operate normally at a wide speed range. Therefore,
we should adopt hydraulic bearing or hydrostatic bearing. Because when motor
is at low speed, if hydraulic bearing is used, it is not easy to formed lubrication
film.

19/05/2015
Ⅷ. Hydraulic Actuating Components
1)
)Features of Motor (Continued)
• Vane pump rotates at high speed with blades to generate centrifugal force, so that
blades always adhere to the inner surface of stator to seal the oil and form working
volume. If it is used as motor, spring must be installed on root of blades of hydraulic
motor, in order to ensure that blades always adhere to the inner surface of stator and
motor can normally start.
• Hydraulic pump should have self-priming capacity in structure , and hydraulic motor
doesn’t have this requirement.
• Hydraulic motor must have large starting torque. Starting torque is the torque that
can be output by motor axle when motor starts from static state. The torque is
generally larger than that under operation condition under the same operating
differential pressure. Therefore, in order to make the starting torque near to torque
under operation condition, it is required that motor torque has small pulsation and
small internal friction.

● Working Principle of Gear Pump
Gear pump is a hydraulic pump widely used in hydraulic system. It is generally made into quantitative
pump. By structure, gear pump can be divided into outer gearing gear pump and inner gearing gear pump.
Outer gearing gear pump is most widely used. working principle of outer gearing gear pump will be
explained with outer gearing gear pump.

It generally has separate three-piece structure. Three-piece


means front and back pump cover and pump body. A pair of gear
are installed in the pump body. They have the same number of
gear teeth and gear into each other. Their width are close to that
of pump body. This pair of gear form a seal chamber with covers
at two ends and pump body. Tooth point of gear and gearing line
divide the seal chamber into two parts, which are oil absorption
cavity and oil pressure chamber. Two gears are respectively
Demo
fixed on driving axle and driven axle supported by needle roller Map
bearing with keys. Driving axle is driven by power machine.
Figure of Outer Gearing Gear

19/05/2015
● Working Principle of Gear Pump (Continued)
When driving gear of the pump rotates according to direction of arrow as shown in the figure,
teeth on the right of gear (oil absorption cavity) will throw out of gear and gear teeth will exit
tooth space, so that sealing volume will increase and partial vacuum will be formed. Under
the action of external atmospheres, oil in the oil tank will enter tooth space through oil
absorption channels and oil absorption cavity. With gear rotating, inhaled tooth between oil
was brought to the other side, into the pressure oil chamber. Then rotation of gear, oil
absorbed into tooth space will be brought to the other side and enter oil pressure cavity. At
this time, gear teeth are engaged each other, so that sealing volume will decrease and some
oil in the gear will be squeezed out, which forms oil pressure process of gear pump. During
gear engagement, tooth contact line will separate oil absorption cavity and oil pressure
cavity for oil distributing. When driving gear of gear pump is driven by power machine, the
gear meshing side, withdraw because sealing capacity greaten is constantly from tank in oil
absorption, gear meshing side, the side of teeth throwing out of gear will continually absorb
oil from oil tank because sealing volume increases. The side with gear engagement will
continually discharge oil because sealing volume decreases. This is the working principle of
gear pump.

)Safety valve of multiple unit reversing valve is between oil inlet cavity and returning
cavity. When system pressure is greater than setting pressure, safety valve will open
and overflow, so that working pressure of the system will be within the scope limited
by the setting pressure for safeguard of system. See structure chart for working

Overload Supplemental Valve
Overload supplemental valve (also called safety valve) is the combination of pilot type
overflow valve and on-way valve. It is installed on multiple unit reversing valve through
bolt. Two ports are respectively connected to oil channels in big and small cavity of turn
cylinder in multiple unit reversing valve . The other two ports are connected to oil-
returning circuit.

Profile Map of Overload


Supplemental Valve

19/05/2015
Overload Supplemental Valve (Continued)

1)
)Functions of Overload Supplemental Valve

● When turn reversing valve is in the middle position, front and back
cavity of turn cylinder are closed. At this time, if the bucket is affected by
external impact load, sharp rise of partial pressure can be effectively
prevented.

19/05/2015
Overload Supplemental Valve
● When swing arm lifts or drops, oil drainage and oil supplementation will be automatically
completed. If swing arm lifts to a certain position, piston rod of turn cylinder will be pulled
out, which will cause pressure rise in front cavity of turn oil cylinder. When the pressure
increases to a certain degree, hydraulic oil cylinder or hydraulic pipelines may be
destroyed. Due to double-acting safety valve, oil trapped in front cavity of hydraulic oil
cylinder can return to hydraulic oil tank through safety valve. When volume of front cavity
of oil cylinder reduces, volume of back cavity will increase, forming partial vacuum.
Supplemental valve of double-acting safety valve will be opened to supplement hydraulic
oil for back cavity of turn oil cylinder and eliminate partial vacuum.

● During unloading of loader, the bucket can quickly turn down by its weight. When the
bucket quickly turns down, after gravity center of the bucket goes over lower hinge point,
the bucket will turn faster by gravity, but movement speed of turn oil cylinder will be limited
by insufficient oil supple of oil pump. Because supplemental valve of double-acting safety
valve supplements oil timely for front cavity of turn oil cylinder, bucket can quickly turn
down, hit stop block, and realize unloading.

• Setting pressure of overload valve in big cavity of turn cylinder of LG953, LG956

and LG958 Loader is 21MPa. Setting pressure of small cavity is 12MPa.

• Setting pressure of overload valve in big cavity of turn cylinder of LG952, LG936

and LG933 Loader is 19 MPa. Setting pressure of small cavity is 12MPa.

• Setting pressure of overload valve in big cavity of turn cylinder of LG918 Loader

Hydraulic Pilot Control Working Hydraulic System
1)
)Features of the System
Working hydraulic system of LG918, LG933, LG936, LG956L, LG958L and other loaders, which
are export products of our company, uses pilot control working hydraulic system. main oil
channels with high pressure and big flow are controlled by pilot oil channels with low pressure
and small flow. Compared with mechanical control hydraulic system, this working hydraulic
system has the following features:
● Pilot control is light, flexible and efficient. Finger control can be realized.
● By pressure-relief type proportional pilot valve control, stroke of valve rod of main valve is in
proportion to control angle of pilot value handle, which means proportional pilot control to
work of main valve is realized.
● Safety valve, overload valve, supplemental valve and one-way valve use insert type structure.
With good generality, it is convenient to maintain.

19/05/2015
)Features of the System (Continued)
1)
● Pilot valve uses overall structure. With a small volume it is convenient to arrange.
● When engine shuts down, drop of swing arm and forward tilting of bucket can be realized
by pressure selecting valve and pilot valve.
● Pilot valve has orientation with electromagnetic iron at lifting position of swing arm and
backward tilting position of bucket. Vertical limit of lifting height of swing arm and automatic
leveling control of bucket at any position can be realized, which simplifies operating
procedures, reduces labor intensity, and avoids energy loss and pressure shock caused by
frequent movement of safety valve.

)System Composition

Composition of pilot control working hydraulic system:

Consists of Working pump, pilot pump. Pilot valve, multiple unit valve, pressure selecting
valve, swing arm cylinder, rotating bucket cylinder, oil tank, pipelines filter and other
accessories. See principle chart of hydraulic system.

Principe of Hydraulic Pilot
Control System

19/05/2015
Pilot Valve
Pilot valve is equipped with control rod. Rotating bucket control has
forward tilting, middle standing and backward titling positions. Swing
arm control has lifting, neutral, middle standing, dropping and floating
positions. Pilot valve has orientation with electromagnetic iron at lifting,
floating and backward titling position. See figure.

Structure of Pilot Valve

19/05/2015
● Working principle of pilot valve(proportional pilot

control and automatic control of electromagnet)


When pulling the control rod to dropping position, pressure pin will push down pressure
lever. Measurement spring will push down measurement valve core, cut off the channel
between control cavity and oil returning chamber, connect oil inlet cavity to control oil cavity,
guide pressure oil to the end of multiple unit valve, push multiple unit valve to move, and
corresponding reversing action. Meanwhile, oil pressure of control cavity will act on lower
end of measurement valve core, and balance with the force of measurement spring. When
control rod remains in one position, the spring force and control cavity pressure will be fixed,
which is similar to action process of fixed pressure reducing valve. Spring force will change
with pivot angle of control rod. The bigger pivot angle is, the bigger spring force will be and
the higher control cavity pressure will be. Thrust on valve core of multiple unit valve will
increase accordingly, which means stroke of main valve core is in proportion to pivot angle
of control rod of pilot valve, so as to achieve proportional pilot control.

19/05/2015
● Working principle of pilot valve(proportional pilot
control and automatic control of electromagnet)
When control rod is pulled from dropping position to floating position, because this
position has electromagnet positioning, pilot valve will be locked. At this time, oil pressure
at control port will increase. Sequence valve in pilot valve will open. Hydraulic oil in Drain
Hole K of multiple unit valve will enter oil tank through Drain Hole 2C in pilot valve.
Supplemental valve in small cavity of swing arm oil cylinder will open. Port P, A2, B2 and T
will be connected. Swing arm floating will be realized. When pilot valve is pulled out of
floating position and loosen, restoring spring will push up pressure lever. Control rod will
return to the middle position.
When control rod of pilot valve is pulled from whole lifting or bucket collecting position,
control rod will be locked and positioned. When swing arm or bucket reaches limited lifting
height or limited bucket angle, which is close to switch action, magnetic coil will shut off
and lose its magnetism. Control rod will automatically go back to the middle position under
the action of restoring spring.

19/05/2015
Multiple Unit Valve (D32)
• The function of multiple unit valve is changing flow direction of working oil,
realizing different movement direction of turn oil cylinder and swing arm oil
cylinder, and completing corresponding different action of working device,
by different open direction of slide valve under the action of pilot control oil.

19/05/2015
Multiple Unit Valve (D32 Continued)
• There are two-joint multiple unit valve and three-joint multiple unit valve.
Two-joint valve is used for common loader. Three-joint valve is used for
multifunctional work device of loader. As shown in the following profile
structure chart, two-joint multiple unit valve is hydraulic multiple unit valve
with overall structure. It is mainly consists of rotating bucket reversing valve,
swing arm reversing valve, overload valve, supplemental valve and one-way
valve.

19/05/2015
Multiple Unit Valve (D32 Continued)
• Rotating bucket reversing valve is three-position valve. It can control middle
standing, forward titling and backward titling action of bucket. Swing arm
reversing valve is four-position valve. It can control middle standing, lifting,
dropping and floating action of swing arm. Movement of slide valve relies on
action of pilot control oil. It restores by spring. Two reversing valves are
connected to oil channels by series-parallel connection. They are at a certain
position under the pressure of pilot hydraulic oil and action of spring.

19/05/2015
Multiple Unit Valve (D32 Continued)
● Automatic control of lifting height of swing arm
When swing arm automatically controls lifting
position, work position of slide valve of
multiple unit valve is exactly the same to lifting
position of swing arm. Because control rod of
pilot valve is pulled to whole lifting position,
control rod is locked and positioned at this
time. When swing arm reaches lifting height
limit, and stator fixed on swing arm is close to
switch action, magnetic coil will disconnect
and lose magnetic force. Control rod will move
to the middle position under the action of
restoring spring. Multiple unit valve will lose
control of pilot oil. Lifting of swing arm will Structure of Multiple
Unit Valve
automatically end.

19/05/2015
Multiple Unit Valve (D32 Continued)
● Floating of swing arm
When swing arm is at floating position, work position of slide valve of multiple
unit valve is exactly the same to dropping position of swing arm. Because
control rod of pilot valve is at floating position and this position doesn’t have
electromagnet, sequence valve in pilot valve will open. Hydraulic oil in Drain
Hole K of multiple unit valve will enter oil tank through Drain Hole 2C in pilot
valve. Supplemental valve in small cavity of swing arm oil cylinder will open.
Port P, A2, B2 and T will be connected. At this time, piston rod of swing arm oil
cylinder will freely float under the action of external force. When control rod of
pilot valve is pulled out of floating position and returns to the middle position,
floating of swing arm will end.

19/05/2015
Multiple Unit Valve (D32 Continued)

● Automatic leveling of bucket


When bucket is at automatic leveling position, work position of multiple unit
valve is exactly the same to backward titling position of bucket. Because
control rod of pilot valve is pulled to whole bucket collecting position, control
rod is locked and positioned at this time. When bucket reaches limited bucket
collecting angle, and stator fixed on turn oil cylinder is close to switch action,
magnetic coil will disconnect and lose magnetic force. Control rod will move to
the middle position under the action of restoring spring. Multiple unit valve will
lose control of pilot oil. Backward titling of swing arm will automatically end.
With this function, at any unloading height, when swing arm drops to ground
shoveling position of bucket, undersurface of bucket will be parallel with
ground.

19/05/2015
Pressure Selecting Valve

● Function: Purpose of pressure selecting valve


is to provide a certain pressure of control oil to One-way
valve
pilot valve, and ensure swing arm on the ground
position when diesel engine shuts off.

● Structure: Pressure selecting valve is installed


in pilot oil channel. Control valve of pressure
selecting valve mainly consists of valve body,
valve core, spring, etc. Port P1 is connected to
One-way
pilot pump. Port Pr is connected to big cavity of valve
swing arm oil cylinder. Port P2 is oil outlet,
which is connected to pilot valve. L is oil
returning port. See structure chart. Structure and Principle of
Pressure Selecting Valve

19/05/2015
● Working Principle
During operation, oil in pilot pump enters Port P1, and flows to pilot valve through valve
centre hole and oil outlet P2. When pressure of oil outlet P2 is greater than 1.5 MPa, valve
core will move left. Port P1 and Port Pr mouth will stagger to close the oil in lower cavity of
swing arm oil cylinder. Port Pr is equipped with one-way valve, in order to prevent reverse
flow of oil.
When diesel engine shuts off, Port P1 doesn’t have oil supple of pilot pump. Pressure will
drop. Under the action of control spring, valve core will return to the connection position of
Port Pr and Port P2. If swing arm in at lifting condition and control rod is at the middle
position at this time , hydraulic oil in big cavity of swing arm oil cylinder will be sealed. At
this time as long as control rod is pulled to dropping position of swing arm, under the
gravity hydraulic oil in big cavity of swing arm oil cylinder will enter pilot valve through Port
Pr and Port P2. Pilot valve controls multiple unit reversing valve, so that valve core of swing
arm is at dropping position. Swing arm can be put down. In this process, valve core of
pressure selecting valve also controls pressure from Port Pr to pilot valve of about 1.5 MPa.
If pressure of oil outlet P2 rises, valve core will move left, throttling damping will be
increased, flow of Port Pr will be reduced, and pressure of oil outlet P2 will be reduced,
which will realize pilot pressure control.

Ⅱ. Steering System
• Function: Wheel loader steering system is used to control driving direction of
loader. It can make loader run straight steadily and change driving direction
flexibly according to requirements.

• Classification: By steering method, wheel loader can be divided into deflection


wheel steering, skid steering and articulated steering.

• Advantages of articulated steering: Work device is installed on front frame.


When the frame deflects relatively, direction of work device will be always same
to that of front frame, which can help work device to quickly aim at working
plane, reduce distance and time of work cycle, and improve working efficiency
of the loader. Therefore, articulated steering becomes the most widely used
steering method of modern loader.

●Type of Steering System
Steering system has many varieties. Different types of steering system
respectively represent development level of different hydraulic technique.
At present wheel loader uses the following types of steering system.

① Whole hydraulic steering system consisting of single stable valve and


open center non-reaction steering gear;
② Load sensing whole hydraulic steering system consisting of priority valve
and load sensing steering gear;
③ Load sensing whole hydraulic steering system consisting of priority valve
and coaxial flow amplifying steering gear;
④ Flow amplifying steering system

3) Combined Valve Block
Combined valve block is a combined hydraulic component. Connected between
steering oil pump and steering gear, it forms a complete set with whole hydraulic
steering gear. It is generally installed directly on flange of valve body, and makes a
whole with steering gear.

Functions:On one hand, ensure that steering gear and the whole steering system
Functions:
works normally and smoothly under pressure rated; On the other hand, ensure that
steering cylinder and connected pipelines will not be damaged during sudden
overload, and protect steering pump. So valve block is an indispensable hydraulic
component in hydraulic steering system.

3) Combined Valve Block
Composition of Combined Valve Block:

According to different requirements of
steering system, combined types of valve
block are different. Valve block generally
consists of one-way valve, overflow valve
(safety valve), two-way buffer overload
valve, supplementary valve, etc. (but some
valve blocks are only equipped with two-
way buffer valve and one-way valve, and
some only have overflow valve and one-way
valve). Structure of valve block is shown in

4) Single stable Valve
Single-channel stable flow divider valve (single stable valve for short) mainly works with BZZ
series of whole hydraulic steering gear. It is used in whole hydraulic steering system. When oil
supply of steering oil pump and system load change, stable flow required by steering gear is
ensured by single stable valve, to satisfy hydraulic steering requirement of loader.
Single-channel stable flow divider valve mainly consists of valve body, valve core, spring,
safety valve, damping plug and other parts. It has shunt type and constant-current type. See
figure.

Single stable valve is used in


independent system. Oil from steering is
supplied to the system. The rest oil and
oil overflowing when safety valve opens
unloading will flow back to the oil tank
through Port T.

Structure of BZZ5 Load Sensing Whole Hydraulic Steering Gear is similar to that of BZZ1
Whole Hydraulic Steering Gear. It is mainly consists of rotary valve and measurement motor.
The valve body has 4 ports, respectively connected to oil inlet, oil outlet and two cavities of oil

● Working Principle(
(BZZ5 Continued)

When steering wheel turns, priority valve will preferentially satisfy steering needs.
Oil in steering pump will go to measurement motor through priority valve and
following rotary valve, and turn in the direction of steering wheel with rotor.
Working oil will be delivered to a cavity of steering cylinder and realize steering.
Oil in the other cavity of steering cylinder will return to oil tank with following
rotary valve. When steering wheel turns fast, a large amount of oil will reach
steering cylinder through measurement motor. Steering will be fast.

19/05/2015
4) Priority Valve
This valve works together with BZZ5 Steering
Gear (or BZZ6 Steering Gear) and forms load
sensing steering system. When rotate speed of
steering wheel changes, flow required by
steering gear can be ensured preferentially.
The red oil will enter working device hydraulic
system or flow back to oil tank.

Principle Chart of
Priority Valve

4) Priority Valve (Continued)
● When steering wheel doesn’t move, pressure oil from steering pump will enter working
device hydraulic system or directly flow back to oil tank through Port P, valve core and
Port EF.

● When steering wheel turns, valve core will move right under the action of spring force and
LS pressure. Port P will be connected to Port CF. Pressure oil will enter steering gear and
push oil cylinder to realize loader steering. The rest oil will be distributed by Port EF, enter
working device hydraulic system or flow back to oil tank. Therefore, when priority valve
preferentially satisfies steering, the rest power oil will be distributed by Port EF and
applied to other working hydraulic system, which will reduce system power loss and save
energy.

19/05/2015

)Coaxial Flow Amplifying Steering Gear

Coaxial Flow Amplifying Steering Gear (BZZ6 and TLF) and BZZ5 type are all load
sensing steering gear. With the same displacement, two steering gears can replace
each other. But displacement of coaxial flow amplifying steering gear changes with
input turning speed of steering wheel.

19/05/2015
5)
)Coaxial Flow Amplifying Steering Gear
(Continued)
In low-speed steering (turning speed of steering wheel is under 10 rpm), effective
displacement and measurement displacement of steering gear are identical; When input
turning speed of steering wheel increases (turning speed of steering wheel is 10 ~ 40 rpm),
the effective displacement is in proportion to turning speed of steering wheel. At this time
only part of oil in oil inlet P will enter stator and rotor pair for measurement. The rest oil will
directly enter oil cylinder through Port A or Port B, so it has flow amplifying function at this
stage. When input turning speed of steering wheel is above 40rpm, effective displacement of
steering gear will be its calibrated equivalent displacement.

Coaxial Flow Amplifying Steering Gear has good relative performance. It has high pressure
loss (about 0.5MPa higher than the first two kinds), good sealing and small leakage.) At
present, LG953 Loader uses BZZ6 (or TLF) Coaxial Flow Amplifying Whole Hydraulic Steering
Gear to replace BZZ5 Load Sensing Steering Gear.

19/05/2015
3. Flow Amplifying Steering System (Flow
Amplifying Valve)
• Flow amplifying system mainly consists of hydraulic pump, flow
amplifying valve, limit valve, steering gear (BZZ3) , steering cylinder, etc.
Oil channels are divided into pilot oil channel and main oil channel. oil
amount change of pilot oil channel is in proportion to flow change of
steering cylinder in main oil channels. High pressure and big flow is
controlled by low pressure and small flow, so that steering control is
convenient and flexible. Because flow amplifying valve has pressure
compensation device, flow doesn’t change with load, which improves
performance and has certain energy-saving effect. Therefore, it has small
power consumption, reduces system heating, and improves flow
adjusting property.

19/05/2015
3. Flow Amplifying Steering System(
(Continued)

• Besides functions of common flow amplifying valve, priority flow


amplifying valve can combine with working hydraulic system by priority
valve. It has characteristics of load sensing steering system.

• For example, LG958 Flow Amplifying Steering System mainly consists of


double pump, steering gear, flow amplifying valve, unloading valve,
steering cylinder, hydraulic oil tank, pipeline accessories, etc. See the
following figure for system principle.

)Flow Amplifying Valve(
(Continued)

● Middle Position

When steering wheel stops turning or turns to extreme position, pilot oil will be
cut off. Steering valve spring (5) will make amplify valve spool (2) keep in
middle position. Oil in steering pump will push distributing valve core (12) right.

19/05/2015
1)
)Flow Amplifying Valve(
(Continued)

Flowing into working system from Port PF, oil in steering pump is fully utilized,
so as to reduce displacement of working pump. Because amplifying valve core (2)
is at the middle position, hydraulic oil in p cavity will not be connected to
hydraulic oil in A and B cavity of left and right steering cylinder, so that loader
will run in the direction when steering wheel loader stops turning. Hydraulic oil
sealed in A and B cavity of left and right steering port will act on cone valve (9) of
safety valve through internal channel. When steering wheel carries external
resistance, pressure in A (or B) cavity will increase, until cone valve (9) is opened,
in order to protect steering cylinder and other hydraulic components from
damage.

19/05/2015
● Right Steering Position

When steering wheel turns right, pilot oil will flow into spring chamber from pilot oil port
along direction b. As pressure in spring cavity of steering valve spring (5) increases,
amplifying valve core (2) will be pushed left. Then P cavity will be connected to right
steering port (B). Left steering port (A) will be connected to oil returning port (T1).
Hydraulic oil will enter oil cylinder of right turning port and realize right turning. When
right turning is preferentially met, the rest oil will be distributed to working system
through Port PF.
Movement amount of valve core is controlled by turning speed of steering wheel. The
faster steering wheel turns, the larger pilot oil flow is, the greater valve core displacement
is, and the higher steering speed is. Conversely, if steering wheel turns slow, valve core
displacement will be small and steering speed will be low (Note: Two ends of valve core
are connected to orifice on the oil channels. The hydraulic damping realizes this function).

19/05/2015
● Right Steering Position (Continued)
When pressure oil flows into right turning port (B), because of load feedback effect,
pressure difference of two ends of distributing valve (12) remain unchanged, so as to
ensure that flow in steering cylinder only relates to displacement of valve core , and
doesn’t related to load pressure. Oil pressure acts on core valve (9) and distributing
valve core (12) through shuttle valve (13) , which automatically controls flow. If
pressure continues to rise and goes beyond the setting pressure of safety valve,
cone valve (9) will open, distributing valve core (12) will move right, and flow will go
to working system. Oil returning in oil channels at middle position will have
protection function. When load is eliminated, pressure will reduce, distributing valve
core (12) will go back to its normal position, and cone valve (9)will be closed.
Left steering is similar to right steering.
