Patent ID: 7900445

Claim:
Hydraulic system for utility vehicles, in particular agricultural tractors, for supplying primary and auxiliary pressure medium consumers with different system pressures, which are built up as a function of the load pressure of the pressure medium consumers and which exceed the load pressure by a pre-determined control pressure differential whereby, in order to produce a first control pressure differential for operating a primary pressure medium consumer, its load pressure is used directly for building up the system pressure and in order to produce a second, higher control pressure differential for operating an auxiliary pressure medium consumer, its load pressure is converted in an amplifying device ( 34 ) to an increased pressure, which is used for building up a higher system pressure, the amplifying device having of a pressure reducing valve, which is permanently adjusted to a pre-determined reduced pressure and has a first pressure inlet, a second inlet, an outlet and a control piston, whereby a line conducting the system pressure is connected to the first pressure inlet, a load reporting line conducting the load pressure of the auxiliary pressure medium consumer is connected to the second inlet and a load reporting line conducting the increased load pressure is connected to the outlet, and the control piston is subjected on its one side to the force of a permanently adjusted spring, which determines the pre-determined reduced pressure as well as the load pressure of the auxiliary pressure medium consumer prevailing at the second inlet, and on its other side to the pressure at the outlet.
