20120031088 | HYDRAULIC DRIVE SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION MACHINE - A hydraulic drive system for a construction machine allows automatic changes of the operational characteristics of a boom directional control valve by judging whether or not a hydraulic boom cylinder needs driving pressure at the time of a boom lowering operation. | 02-09-2012 |
20130055705 | HYDRAULIC DRIVE SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION MACHINE - A hydraulic drive system for a construction machine has a travel detection device which detects whether or not the operation mode is a traveling operation and a setting changing device. The setting changing device sets the target differential pressure of load sensing control at an absolute pressure Pa when the operation mode is not a traveling operation, and sets the target differential pressure of the load sensing control at an absolute pressure Pa′ rather than the absolute pressure Pa. In this way, in the actuator operation other than traveling, a necessary actuator speed can be obtained and supplied with the necessary maximum flow rate. In addition, during the combined operation, a flow rate in accordance with the opening area ratios of flow control valves can be distributed to actuators different in load pressure from one another; and energy efficiency is enhanced due to less energy loss during traveling operation. | 03-07-2013 |
20130152573 | HYBRID SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION MACHINE - When the actuator drive torque of a hydraulic pump is lower than a switching torque τ0, a controller closes a solenoid switching valve and makes a rotary electric machine function as a generator. With the increase in the actuator drive torque, the controller controls a pressure compensated flow control valve so that the flow rate of hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pump to a rotary hydraulic device decreases. When the actuator drive torque is higher than the switching torque, the controller opens the solenoid switching valve, makes the rotary electric machine function as an electric motor, and controls the pressure compensated flow control valve so that the hydraulic fluid discharged by the hydraulic pump is not supplied to the rotary hydraulic device. Consequently, shocks due to flow rate fluctuation are prevented when operational states of the rotary hydraulic device and the rotary electric machine are switched. | 06-20-2013 |

The hydraulic drive system is capable of correcting for skew occurring in the straight line traveling of the track device. A traveling test is conducted upon shipment from a factory. If skew is noted during the test, a plug disposed on the side of a valve opening-side pressure receiving portion of a pressure compensating valve for the track which is lower in speed is removed and, replaced with an adjusting mechanism-mounted plug having an adjusting pin. The pin is operated so as to strengthen a biasing force of a target compensating differential pressure adjusting spring. An opening in the pressure compensating valve is thereby corrected in an opening direction and a flow rate to one of the left and right track motors is thereby adjusted to be equal to the other motor. | 10-31-2013 |
