7 Claims, 2 Drawing Figures 14 1G 18 IO Z ,28 I as, g \x l o 2o 22 38 HYDRAULIC VALVE WITH LEAKAGE CONTROL This is a continuation, of Ser. No. 873,172, filed Nov. 3, 1969 and since abandoned.
Hydraulic systems on some machines now employ pressures as high as 5,000 psi and it is difficult to contain hydraulic fluid at such pressures with aspool type valve which is used extensively in such systems. It is found that despite very close machining tolerances, some leakage persists and causes a build-up of pressure in a hydraulic motor employed for actuating or adjusting a machine component so that the component will move slowly or creep even though the valve is in its closed position.
The present invention overcomes this difficulty by providing a spool valve in which leakage tending to pass a spool in its closed position is trapped and bled away from the valve before it enters the lines leading to the hydraulic motor. Check valve means are provided in the passage through which the leaking fluid is bled and the check valves are automatically closed when the spool valve is opened for the purpose of directing pressure to a machine component to be actuated.
The invention is more fully disclosed in the following specification wherein reference is made to the accompanying drawing.
In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is a schematic view in section of a spool valve embodying the present invention and FIG. 2 is a enlarged fragmentary section of a part of the valve shown in FIG. 1.
In the drawing, the valve is shown as having a body suitably bored for the reception of a spool 12 which is slidably mounted in the bore. Actuating linkage is connected to the extending end of the spool in a conventional manner.
In the position in which the spool is illustrated, fluid under pressure entering through a port 14 is prevented from flowing out either of ports 16 or 18 by lands 20 and 22 respectively of the spool. For purpose of this description, the ports 16 and 18 may be considered as connected with opposite ends of a motor such as a hydraulic jack so that when one port is opened to admit fluid to one end of the jack, the other port will be opened for return of fluid to tank from the opposite end. When the spool is moved toward the right as shown in FIG. 1, land 22 admits fluid under pressure from port 14 to port 18 communicating with one end of the jack cylinder. At the same time land 20 uncovers port 16 for return of fluid from the opposite end of the cylinder. The returned fluid enters a passage 24 and is returned through a port 26 to a tank illustrated at 28'. Upon adjustment of the spool in the opposite direction or toward the left, pressure is communicated through port 16 to one end of the jack cylinder and returned from the opposite end through port 18 into the other end of passage 24 for discharge through port 26.
If with the valve in its closed position, as shown in FIG. 1, fluid leaks past either of the lands 20 or 22, it will increase pressure at the corresponding end of the jack cylinder imparting motion thereto and moving or creeping of the component actuated thereby.
The present invention provides annular chambers 28, one of which is disposed in the wall of the valve bore intermediate the inlet port 14 and each of the ports 16 or 18 which communicate with the motor. Leakage fluid is intercepted by these annular chambers and communicated to the discharge, passage 24 by means best illustrated in FIG. 2. In this figure, a
threaded plug 30 is contained in a passage which extends between the main valve bore and the discharge 5 passage 24. This plug contains a check valve which includes a ball 32 urged toward an open position by a spring 34 which seats against an orificed spring seat 36 pressed into the plug 30. The ball is urged into contact with a piston 38 slidable in the bore above the ball and having a small orifice 40 through which leaking fluid is discharged. Plugs 42 in the main valve housing are shown in FIG. 1 for closing openings through which the check valve and cylinder means may be inserted and removed.
In operation, any small quantity of hydraulic fluid tending to leak past the lands 20 or 22 will be bled through the orifice 40 of the piston 38 and through the open check valve. During operation of the spool valve for directing high pressure fluid to either of the outlets 16 or 18, the corresponding leakage port is uncovered and, since the pressure and volume of fluid is too great to pass through the small orifice 40, the piston 38 moves downwardly forcing the ball 32 onto its seat against pressure of the spring 34. Consequently, with the valve spool open, the leakage passage is closed.
What is claimed is:
1. In a spool valve having a bore and spaced inlet and outlet ports communicating with said bore, a spool reciprocable in said bore and having land means forming a closure between the inlet and outlet ports when the valve is closed, the improvement which comprises: means to prevent leakage of fluid under pressure to said outlet ports when the valve is closed including drain passage means communicating with said bore intermediate said inlet and outlet ports for directing leaked fluid to a low pressure area, and check valve means in said drain passage means, said check valve means being responsive to pressure at the area of communication of said drain passage means with said bore to close said drain passage means when said valve is open and open said drain passage means when said valve is closed.
