Abstract
Abstract A multiple consumer hydraulic device is provided having a pump and at least two consumers, where a multiway control valve throttling in the intermediate positions is located in front of each of these consumers and a hydraulically controlled additional valve is located in the line between the pump and this mulitway control valve and is acted upon in the closing direction by the pressure in front of this multiway control valve and is loaded in the opposite direction by the pressure of the assigned consumer in which case, in order to achieve a load-independent proportioning of the pump stream for both pumps with and pumps without load-sensing, the additional multiway valve is provided with two additional control pressure chambers, of which the one acting in the closing direction is acted upon by the pressure of the one of the consumers carrying the highest pressure, and the oppositely acting additional control pressure chamber is acted upon by the pressure in the delivery line of the pump.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
168 words
In a hydraulic device with a pump and with at least two hydraulic-energy consumers acted upon by the pump, where an arbitrarily actuatable multiway control valve that throttles in the intermediate positions is located in front of each consumer and an additional hydraulically controlled valve is located in the line between the pump and this multiway control valve, the control pressure chamber of this additional valve, which loads in the closing direction, being acted upon by the pressure in front of the multiway control valve and its control pressure chamber, which loads in the opening direction, being acted upon by the pressure of the assigned consumer, the improvement comprising said additional multiway valve having two additional control pressure chambers, of which the additional control pressure chamber loading in the closing direction is acted upon by the pressure of the consumer loaded with the highest pressure and the additional control pressure chamber loading in the opening direction is loaded with the pressure in the delivery line of the pump.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
168 words
In a hydraulic device with a pump and with at least two hydraulic-energy consumers acted upon by the pump, where an arbitrarily actuatable multiway control valve that throttles in the intermediate positions is located in front of each consumer and an additional hydraulically controlled valve is located in the line between the pump and this multiway control valve, the control pressure chamber of this additional valve, which loads in the closing direction, being acted upon by the pressure in front of the multiway control valve and its control pressure chamber, which loads in the opening direction, being acted upon by the pressure of the assigned consumer, the improvement comprising said additional multiway valve having two additional control pressure chambers, of which the additional control pressure chamber loading in the closing direction is acted upon by the pressure of the consumer loaded with the highest pressure and the additional control pressure chamber loading in the opening direction is loaded with the pressure in the delivery line of the pump.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
Device according to claim 1, wherein the control pressure line carrying the pressure of a consumer and pertaining to said at least two consumers are connected to a reversing valve, whose outlet is connected with the additional control pressure chamber of the additional multiway valve, which loads in the closing direction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the active surfacesof the control pressure chambers of an or each additional multiway valve are the same size as the active surface of the additional control pressure chambers of the same said additional multiway valve.
