VALVE UNITS FOR USE IN HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEMS OF MINING EQUIPMENT

摘要

A valve block in a mine hydraulic system contains a non-return valve which is opened when a hydraulic control signal occurs to connect a pressure fluid feed or return line to a working chamber of an appliance such as a prop. A auxiliary valve is mounted in the block and is operated manually to relieve the working chamber even if the non-return valve remains closed.
