Abstract
A hydraulic control device with a pressure control valve that has a control piston and a modulating piston which can move relative to one another. The control piston and the modulating piston are pushed apart from one another by at least one spring. At one end face of the modulating piston there is arranged a pressure chamber in such a manner that when the pressure chamber is filled, the modulating piston is caused to move in the direction toward the control piston. The pressure chamber can be filled by a first volume flow Q1 of a pressure medium. A venting line, with at least one further throttle, is connected to the pressure chamber. A second volume flow Q2 can be discharged, via the venting line, from the pressure chamber. The hydraulic control device can be utilized in a marine transmission.

A hydraulic control device with a pressure control valve comprising:
- a control piston and a modulating piston being coaxially movable relative to one another,
- at least one spring being arranged between the control piston and the modulating piston and axially pushing the control piston and the modulating piston in opposite directions away from one another,
- a pressure chamber being arranged adjacent an end face of the modulating piston such that pressurization of the pressure chamber, by a third volume flow of pressure medium, pushing the modulating piston in a direction toward the control piston,
- a first volume flow of the pressure medium flowing, via a first throttle, into the pressure chamber for pressurizing the pressure chamber,
- a venting line being connected to the pressure chamber and having a second throttle through which a second volume flow of the pressure medium can be discharged from the pressure chamber, and
- the third volume flow being equal to a difference between the first volume flow and the second volume flow, and
- wherein respective dimensions of the first throttle and the further throttle are matched to one another in such a manner that the third volume flow is produced in the pressure chamber, and this differential volume flow behaves in a temperature-stable manner or has a desired temperature dependence.
