Abstract

In order to improve the design efficiency and quality of hydraulic manifold blocks, architecture of intelligent CAD system for hydraulic manifold blocks was proposed. A component layout rule library and an oil circuit connection pattern library were established to integrate empirical knowledge, design expertise, design standard and code. For the components layout design, a core components based layout design method for hydraulic components was proposed, which can decrease reduce the design complexity of main oil circuits. For connection design, a hole-arrangement design approach was proposed by combining pattern matching of typical topology connection oil circulation and intelligent path planning algorithm, which can improve the design efficiency by reusing design knowledge of oil circuits. Intelligent CAD system for the hydraulic manifold blocks was developed by using SolidWorks Application Programming Interface (API). A design example is given to illustrate the feasibility and efficacy of the proposed framework.
