ABSTRACT:
A control circuit for a radial piston pump that uses a four position control valve and an orifice to regulate fluid flow from the stroke control chamber to the pump inlet. The control valve also regulates the addition of high pressure fluid for destroking the pump and provides pressure relief of the pump output during destroking to eliminate pressure spikes. Elimination of pressure spikes is done by an overshoot function which relieves high pressure output fluid directly to the pump inlet and to the pump control chamber while also venting the pump control chamber to the pump inlet. V-notch openings in the control valve for regulating the addition of high pressure fluid to the stroke control chamber enhance control during steady state operations. The circuit also uses a down sized orifice between the stroke control chamber and the pump inlet which allows a portion of the pump destroking phase to be done by piston leakage flow, thereby minimizing control fluid usage.
