Definitions
- the invention relates to a gas-hydraulic damping device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Gas-hydraulic damping devices for shock and / or pulling devices from Rail vehicles are in various designs, for example in the form of Buffering, known.
- a generic damping device can, for example can also be used for clutches, by means of which rail vehicles are springy get connected.
- the Buffer is in the unloaded, i.e. shown sprung state.
- the buffer has one on the rail vehicle (not shown) to be attached buffer sleeve 1 and a Buffer tappet 2 with an outer tappet tube 4, an inner plunger tube 5 and one Buffer plate 3 on. Both the tappet tube 4 and the plunger tube 5 are in Active connection with the buffer plate 3.
- the plunger tube 5 is on the vehicle side of one Flange 6 closed, the latter being formed by two separate flange parts 6a, 6b becomes. In its interior, the plunger tube 5 forms a gas space 8 for receiving a gas under an overpressure of approx. 10-20 bar and a partial amount of the hydraulic medium.
- An oil space 9 is formed in the interior of the buffer sleeve 1.
- the buffer 8 is in the idle state of the gas chamber 8, in part with hydraulic oil filled, while the oil space 9 is completely filled with hydraulic oil.
- the left one Flange part 6b forms together with a valve arrangement 13 accommodated therein a gas-hydraulic control device 12, which the when the buffer is deflected Flow of the oil from the oil space 9 into the gas space 8 as a function of the acting one Shock forces regulates.
- the right flange part 6a has an annular circumferential projection 17 and acts together with channels, recesses, Bores and valves as a venting arrangement 7, their structure and mode of operation is then explained in more detail. However, from the representation according to FIG only one channel 20a with a valve flap 19a arranged therein can be seen.
- the valve arrangement 13 Recess 15 In the right flange part 6a is a central one, which adjoins the valve arrangement 13 Recess 15 recessed. From this recess 15 leads a bore 16 in substantially radially upwards, where they on the left side of the projection 17 in the Oil room 9 opens. Between the projection 17 of the flange 6a and the wall 10 there is an annular gap 18 in the oil space 9. About this annular gap 18 If the buffer compresses, any accumulated in the upper part of the oil space 9 Gas to the left side of the projection 17, from where it goes through the bore 16 in the Recess 15 and via the valve arrangement 13 opened by the excess pressure can flow back the gas space 8.
- the ventilation arrangement 7 is shown in a perspective view. From this illustration, four channels 20a embedded in the flange part 6a are 20b, 20c, 20d, in each of which a V-shaped valve flap 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d is arranged. Each of these V-shaped valve flaps 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d has two legs, with the following representing all valve flaps 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d only on the two legs 21, 22 of one valve flap 19a is referred to. The two legs 21, 22 of the respective valve flap 19a resiliently lie on the side walls of the respective one in the rest state shown here Channel 20a and close it.
- the two legs 21, 22nd are pressed against the spring force - deflected - so that in the respective Channel 20a creates a passage through which the oil displaced from the oil space in the central recess 15 can reach.
- the essentially radial through the Flange part 6a running bore 16 can also be seen from this illustration.
- the inside diameter of the oil space 9 narrows towards the right towards the vehicle, so that the annular gap 18 between the projection 17 and the wall of the oil space 9 reduced with increasing insertion of the buffer plunger 2.

Thereby oil flows and that in the Upper part of the oil space 9 possibly accumulated gas from the oil space 9 via the ring-shaped Gap 18 on the left side of the projection 17 of the flange 6a. By in the oil room 9 prevailing excess pressure, the gas is in the upper part of the oil space 9 opening bore 16 displaced into the recess 15, from where it is via the valve assembly 13 enters the gas space 8.
- the venting arrangement 7 shown is simple and inexpensive to implement.
- the V-shaped valve flaps 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d have the advantage that at high compression speeds they only give the oil flowing through a very great deal oppose little resistance.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine gashydraulische Dämpfungseinrichtung gemäss dem Oberbegriff
des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a gas-hydraulic damping device according to the preamble
of
Gashydraulische Dämpfungseinrichtungen für Stoss- und/oder Zugeinrichtungen von Schienenfahrzeugen sind in verschiedensten Ausführungen, beispielsweise in Form von Puffern, bekannt. Eine gattungsgemässe Dämpfungseinrichtung kann jedoch beispielsweise auch für Kupplungen verwendet werden, mittels welchen Schienenfahrzeuge federnd verbunden werden.Gas-hydraulic damping devices for shock and / or pulling devices from Rail vehicles are in various designs, for example in the form of Buffering, known. However, a generic damping device can, for example can also be used for clutches, by means of which rail vehicles are springy get connected.
Bei gashydraulischen Dämpfungseinrichtungen ohne physisches Trennmittel zwischen dem Gas und dem Hydraulikmedium besteht grundsätzlich die Gefahr, dass sich im Ölraum mit der Zeit Gas ansammelt, was natürlich unerwünscht ist und zu Fehlfunktionen führen kann. Beispielweise kann sich dies bei Puffern in einem undefiniertem bzw. ungenügendem Federverhalten äussern. Insbesondere durch starke Aufstösse besteht bei Puffern die Gefahr, dass Gas vom Gasraum in den Ölraum gelangt.With gas-hydraulic damping devices without physical separating means between the gas and the hydraulic medium there is a fundamental risk that the Oil space accumulates gas over time, which of course is undesirable and causes malfunctions can lead. For example, this can be the case with buffers in an undefined or express inadequate spring behavior. Especially due to strong belches in the case of buffers, there is a risk that gas will enter the oil space from the gas space.
Es ist daher die Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1
ausgebildete gashydraulische Dämpfungseinrichtung vorzuschlagen, welche sich während
des Betriebs selber entlüftet, indem das sich im Ölraum ggf. angesammelte Gas
selbsttätig in den Gasraum zurückgeführt wird.It is therefore the object of the invention, one according to the preamble of
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 angeführten Merkmale
gelöst.This object is achieved by the features stated in the characterizing part of
Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen 2 bis 7 umschrieben.Preferred embodiments of the invention are in dependent claims 2 to 7 circumscribed.
Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert. In diesen
Zeichnungen zeigt:
Anhand der Fig. 1, welche einen Längsschnitt durch eine gashydraulische Dämpfungseinrichtung
in Form eines Puffers mitsamt einer erfindungsgemäss gestalteten Entlüftungsanordnung
zeigt, wird der grundsätzliche Aufbau des Puffers näher erläutert. Der
Puffer ist im entlasteten, d.h. ausgefederten Zustand dargestellt. Der Puffer weist eine
am Schienenfahrzeug (nicht dargestellt) zu befestigende Pufferhülse 1 sowie einen
Pufferstössel 2 mit einem äusseren Stösselrohr 4, einem inneren Plungerrohr 5 und einem
Pufferteller 3 auf. Sowohl das Stösselrohr 4 wie auch das Plungerrohr 5 stehen in
Wirkverbindung mit dem Pufferteller 3. Das Plungerrohr 5 ist fahrzeugseitig von einem
Flansch 6 verschlossen, welch letzterer durch zwei separate Flanschteile 6a, 6b gebildet
wird. In seinem Innenraum bildet das Plungerrohr 5 einen Gasraum 8 zur Aufnahme
eines unter einem Überdruck von ca. 10-20 bar stehenden Gases sowie einer Teilmenge
des Hydraulikmediums.1, which shows a longitudinal section through a gas-hydraulic damping device
in the form of a buffer together with a ventilation arrangement designed according to the invention
shows, the basic structure of the buffer is explained in more detail. The
Buffer is in the unloaded, i.e. shown sprung state. The buffer has one
on the rail vehicle (not shown) to be attached
Im Innenraum der Pufferhülse 1 ist ein Ölraum 9 ausgebildet. Im hier dargestellten ausgefederten
Ruhezustand des Puffers ist der Gasraum 8 zu einem Teil mit Hydrauliköl
gefüllt, währenddem der Ölraum 9 vollständig mit Hydrauliköl gefüllt ist. Der linke
Flanschteil 6b bildet zusammen mit einer darin aufgenommenen Ventilanordnung 13
eine gas-hydraulische Regeleinrichtung 12, welche beim Einfedern des Puffers den
Durchfluss des Öls vom Ölraum 9 in den Gasraum 8 in Abhängigkeit der einwirkenden
Stoss-Kräfte regelt. Der rechte Flanschteil 6a weist einen ringförmig umlaufenden Vorsprung
17 auf und wirkt zusammen mit darin eingelassenen Kanälen, Ausnehmungen,
Bohrungen und Ventilen als Entlüftungsanordnung 7, deren Aufbau und Wirkungsweise
anschliessend noch näher erläutert wird. Aus der Darstellung gemäss Fig.1 ist jedoch
lediglich ein Kanal 20a mit einer darin angeordneten Ventilklappe 19a ersichtlich.An oil space 9 is formed in the interior of the
In den rechten Flanschteil 6a ist eine zentrale, an die Ventilanordnung 13 angrenzende
Ausnehmung 15 eingelassen. Von dieser Ausnehmung 15 führt eine Bohrung 16 im
wesentlichen radial nach oben, wo sie auf der linken Seite des Vorsprungs 17 in den
Ölraum 9 mündet. Zwischen dem Vorsprung 17 des Flansches 6a und der Wandung 10
des Ölraums 9 besteht ein ringförmiger Spalt 18. Über diesen ringförmigen Spalt 18
gelangt beim Einfedern des Puffers das sich im Oberteil des Ölraums 9 ggf. angesammelte
Gas auf die linke Seite des Vorsprungs 17, von wo es über die Bohrung 16 in die
Ausnehmung 15 und über die durch den Überdruck geöffnete Ventilanordnung 13 in
den Gasraum 8 zurückströmen kann.In the right flange part 6a is a central one, which adjoins the
In der Fig. 2 ist die Entlüftungsanordnung 7 in einer perspektivischen Ansicht dargestellt.
Aus dieser Darstellung sind vier in den Flanschteil 6a eingelassene Kanäle 20a,
20b, 20c, 20d ersichtlich, in welchen je eine V-förmig ausgebildeten Ventilklappe 19a,
19b, 19c, 19d angeordnet ist. Jede dieser V-förmig ausgebildeten Ventilklappen 19a,
19b, 19c, 19d weist zwei Schenkel auf, wobei nachfolgend stellevertretend für alle Ventilklappen
19a, 19b, 19c, 19d nur auf die beiden Schenkel 21, 22 der einen Ventilklappe
19a Bezug genommen wird. Die beiden Schenkel 21, 22 der jeweiligen Ventilklappe
19a liegen im hier dargestellten Ruhezustand federnd an den Seitenwänden des jeweiligen
Kanals 20a an und verschliessen diesen. Durch den beim schnellen Einfedern des
Stössels 2 im Ölraum 9 entstehenden Überdruck können die beiden Schenkel 21, 22
entgegen der Federkraft zusammengedrückt -ausgelenkt- werden, so dass im jeweiligen
Kanal 20a ein Durchlass entsteht, über den das aus dem Ölraum verdrängte Öl in
die zentrale Ausnehmung 15 gelangen kann. Die im wesentlichen radial durch den
Flanschteil 6a verlaufende Bohrung 16 ist aus dieser Darstellung ebenfalls ersichtlich.
Der Innendurchmesser des Ölraums 9 verengt sich nach rechts zum Fahrzeug hin, so
dass sich der Ringspalt 18 zwischen dem Vorsprung 17 und der Wandung des Ölraums
9 mit zunehmendem Einschieben des Pufferstössels 2 verkleinert.2, the
Die Funktionsweise der Entlüftungsanordnung 7 stellt sich wie folgt dar: Beim Einfedern
des Puffers verschiebt sich das äussere Stösselrohr 4 zusammen mit dem inneren
Plungerrohr 5 und dem Flansch 6 nach rechts. Dabei strömt Öl sowie das sich im
Oberteil des Ölraums 9 ggf. angesammelte Gas vom Ölraum 9 über den ringförmigen
Spalt 18 auf die linke Seite des Vorsprungs 17 des Flansches 6a. Durch den im Ölraum
9 vorherrschenden Überdruck wird das Gas über die in den oberen Teil des Ölraums 9
mündende Bohrung 16 in die Ausnehmung 15 verdrängt, von wo es über die Ventilanordnung
13 in den Gasraum 8 gelangt. Da die vier in den Flanschteil 6a eingelassenen
Kanäle 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d im Ruhezustand von je einer Ventilklappe 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d
verschlossen sind, entsteht beim Verschieben des Stössels 2 bzw. des Plungerrohrs 5
mitsamt dem Flansch 6 ein Staudruck, welcher bewirkt, dass bereits bei tiefen Einfedergeschwindigkeiten
das ggf. aus dem Ölraum 9 zu verdrängende Gas zwingend
über die radiale Bohrung 16 entweicht.The operation of the
Bei hohen Einfedergeschwindigkeiten wird ein entsprechend grosser Überdruck im Ölraum
9 erzeugt. Dieser bewirkt, dass die beiden Schenkel 21, 22 der jeweiligen Ventilklappe
19a zusammengedrückt werden, so dass das Öl ohne nennenswerten Widerstand
am jeweiligen Ventil 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d vorbei durch den entsprechenden Kanal
20a, 20b, 20c, 20d strömen kann. Bei hohen Einfedergeschwindigkeiten kann das Öl
demnach über alle vier Kanäle 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d vom Ölraum in die Ausnehmung 15
strömen, während bei tiefen Einfedergeschwindigkeiten das sich im Ölraum 9 angesammelte
Gas zwingend über die radiale Bohrung 16 entweicht.At high compression speeds, there is a correspondingly large overpressure in the oil space
9 generated. This causes the two
Da im regulären Betrieb eines Puffers jedoch praktisch nie zwei starke, eine hohe Einfedergeschwindigkeit des Pufferstössels bewirkende Aufstösse aufeinander folgen, sondern dazwischen immer mehrere kleine und langsame Hübe erfolgen, wird durch die dargestellte Entlüftungsanordnung 7 ein zuverlässiges, zwangsweises Entlüften des Ölraums 9 sichergestellt.Since in normal operation of a buffer, however, there are practically never two strong, high compression rates impacts causing the buffer tappet follow one another, but there are always several small and slow strokes in between, is achieved by the shown venting arrangement 7 a reliable, forced venting of the Oil space 9 ensured.
Die gezeigte Entlüftungsanordnung 7 ist einfach aufgebaut und kostengünstig zu realisieren.
Die V-förmig ausgebildeten Ventilklappen 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d haben den Vorteil,
dass sie bei hohen Einfedergeschwindigkeiten dem durchströmenden Öl nur einen sehr
geringen Widerstand entgegensetzen.The
