Current divider devices and supply device using such a current divider
DRIVE
August 1, 2012
The divider device has a pressure supply port (P) and two working ports (HA, VA). A control piston (36) activates the respective working ports. The control piston divides the volume flow supplied via the pressure supply port between the working ports in a pre-definable ratio in a pressure balanced manner. A pressure limitation or pressure shut-off is provided for the working port (VA) by a safety device (68) using the control piston in the event of a failure of the working port (HA), where the safety device is provided with a bypass (76).
