Abstract
An integrated multi-connection hydraulic group for connecting the hydraulic circuit on-board an operating machine to a plurality of hydraulic, electrical, and/or pneumatic lines for the connection of corresponding lines of a user includes a block or manifold having connection elements for connecting the block to the circuit of the machine, and a plurality of fast female couplings housed in the block that face outwardly from a plate-shaped surface of the block and connect with a corresponding number of male couplings of the user. A plurality of hydraulic elements is provided within the block or manifold for adjusting the flow that feeds the lines and is in fluid connection with the fast female couplings via respective channels defined inside the block.
Claims9
An integrated multi-connection hydraulic group (1) for connecting a hydraulic circuit on-board an operating machine to a plurality of hydraulic, electrical, and/or pneumatic lines to connect corresponding lines of a user, comprising:
- a block or manifold (10) comprising connection elements (50, 70) configured to connect said block (10) to the hydraulic circuit of said operating machine;
- a plurality of quick female couplings (21) housed within said block (10) and facing outwardly from a surface of said block (10), said surface being plate-shaped (20), said plurality of quick female couplings (21) being configured to connect a corresponding number of male couplings of said user;
- and
- a plurality of individually operable hydraulic elements (40) provided within said block or manifold (10), and in fluid connection with said female couplings through respective internal channels (30) inside the block (10), said plurality of individually operable hydraulic elements (40) comprising compensation valves, proportional valves, or control valves each operable to independently adjust a hydraulic flow within a corresponding hydraulic line and provide a controlled distribution of a working fluid in the hydraulic circuit.
