Novel concept for stabilising a hydraulic circuit containing counterbalance valve and pressure compensated flow supply
2016
In this paper, a novel concept for stabilising a hydraulic system containing a counterbalance valve and a pressure compensated flow supply is presented. The concept utilizes a secondary circuit where a low-pass filtered value of the load pressure is generated and fed back to the compensator of the flow supply valve. The novel concept has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. A linear model has been developed to verify the improved stability conditions. The novel concept has been implemented on a single boom actuated by a cylinder. The results show that the pressure oscillations in an otherwise unstable system can be suppressed with the novel concept. This happens without any c…
Numerical and Experimental Study of a Novel Concept for Hydraulically Controlled Negative Loads
2016
This paper presents a numerical and experimental investigation of a novel concept that eliminates oscillations in hydraulic systems containing a counterbalance valve in series with a pressure compensated flow supply. The concept utilizes a secondary circuit where a low-pass filtered value of the load pressure is generated and fed back to the compensator of the flow supply valve. The novel concept has been implemented on a single boom actuated by a cylinder. A nonlinear model of the system has been developed and an experimental verification shows good correspondence between the model and the real system. The model is used for a parameter study on the novel concept. From the study it is found…
Boom Motion Control Using Pressure Control Valve
2014
This paper focuses on the reduction in oscillations created by counterbalance valves by using a proportional pressure control valve. The motion control of a cylinder boom is presented using this valve, which is a 4/3-way directional control valve with the main spool in series with an upstream compensator. The input to the valve control is a main spool position reference and, indirectly, the compensator downstream pressure. This gives a different flow gain and, therefore, a different feedforward scheme as compared to applications with the more common pressure compensated flow control valve. The theory behind the pressure control valve is presented and applied to both a theoretical and experi…
Reduction of Oscillations in Hydraulically Actuated Knuckle Boom Cranes
2016
Doktorgradsavhandling ved Universitetet i Agder, Institutt for ingeniørvitenskap, 2016 A knuckle boom crane is characterized by being a versatile machine that during operation experiences large load variations caused by the changes in position and payload. Common uses are as a mobile loader crane mounted on trucks and in offshore applications. Since their introduction the use of counterbalance valves (CBV) have been the de facto standard on load-carrying hydraulically actuated applications like the knuckle boom crane. It offers a simple and practical solution to one of the issues of mobile cranes: Controlling the load safely when lowering. By law (e.g. European Standard) the hydraulic circu…
