Title:
IMPROVED HYDRAULIC CONNECTION ASSEMBLY WITH ELECTRO-ACTUATED CARTRIDGES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/208480
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hydraulic connection assembly for the connection of hydraulic lines of pressurized fluids which is characterized in that it comprises electro- actuated cartridges. More specifically, the hydraulic assembly according to the present invention comprises a manifold (1) which houses, in corresponding seats, a plurality of female cartridges (2,3), and further comprises actuation means (4) of the cartridges configured for selectively decompressing the hydraulic lines (20,30) and connecting/disconnecting said cartridges (2,3) to/from corresponding male couplers provided on the utilizer apparatus to be hydraulically connected to said assembly (10). It is characterized in that it comprises electro -actuated actuators (11) for actuating said actuation means (4) of the cartridges for decompressing the hydraulic lines (20,30) and for connecting/disconnecting said cartridges (2,3). The electro-actuated actuators (11) can comprise an actuator controlled by an electromechanical system or by an electronic control system. The possible use of an electronic control system allows additional control and interface systems to be integrated, such as, for example, proximity sensors and RFID recognition systems, to recognize the approach of the rapid coupling counterpart, and univocally define the identity of the coupling and the equipment to which it is connected.
