  • Patent number: 10273987
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydraulic valve arrangement for controlling/regulating at least one hydraulic consumer of a mobile machine, with a summation interconnection of at least two hydraulic valves and at least one consumer interconnection of hydraulic valves, wherein the outputs of the summation interconnection are hydraulically connected with the inputs of the consumer interconnection, wherein at least one backflow valve is provided in the consumer interconnection. According to the invention, the at least one backflow valve for throttling a consumer return volume flow opens or closes in dependence on a consumer inflow pressure and comprises at least one main piston arranged in a bushing and at least two further pistons arranged in a lid separate from the bushing, wherein the main piston and the control piston interact with each other via a compression spring.

  • Patent number: 6805148
    Abstract: The invention concerns a pressure-limiting valve to limit the pressure of hydraulic oil which can be admitted through two intakes, consisting of a control rod in a cylindrical housing equipped with the two intakes, which can be moved against spring force, which, when one intake is exposed to oil under high pressure, connects the other intake supplied with oil kept under low pressure to an outlet leading to the pressure-limiting valve. A pressure-limiting valve of simple construction, which easily installed, is achieved through the fact that the control rod is provided with an axial hole in which a second control rod can be moved against the force of at least one limiting spring adjusted to the pressure to be limited, and that the first control rod, depending on which of the two intakes is subjected to the high pressure, is pushed into a position in which the second control rod connects the intake that is under low pressure to an outlet opening, while overcoming the force of the limiting spring.
