A hydraulic drive system for an electrically-driven hydraulic work machine makes it possible to make a rated voltage of various electric equipment such as power storage devices common to one of an electrically-driven hydraulic work machine that is capable of being operated with lower horsepower and to prevent that only a power storage situation of one of the plurality of power storage devices significantly degrades together with operation of the electrically-driven hydraulic work machine and besides, to extend a time period within which each of actuators of the electrically-driven hydraulic work machine can obtain a predetermined speed. Accordingly, a controller 50 includes a virtual limitation torque calculation section 51 and electric motor rotational speed control sections 52 and 53. Variable horsepower control tables 52r and 53r are provided in the electric motor rotational speed control sections 52 and 53, and limit values q1*limit and q2*limit for a virtual displacement of the variable horsepower control tables 52r and 53r are changed such that a charge state of a power storage device 170 and a charge state of another power storage device 270 become equal to each other.

A hydraulic system includes a pump in communication with a fluid reservoir and powered by a motor. A pressure compensator is adapted to adjust a position of a variable displacement mechanism of the pump. A load sensing line is adapted to communicate a highest load sensing pressure from a plurality of valves to the pressure compensator. The pressure compensator adjusts the variable displacement mechanism of the pump based on the highest load sensing pressure for maintaining a constant pressure drop across one or more work ports in each of the plurality of valves. The plurality of valves each include a load sense port having an integrated check valve that includes a metering orifice.

A hydraulic system and method of controlling such on a machine is disclosed. The hydraulic system may comprise a primary hydraulic circuit that includes a first load sense controlled pump, a secondary hydraulic circuit that includes a second load sense controlled pump, a flow sharing valve, and a load sense arrangement. The load sense arrangement may include a main resolver configured to select a higher pressure signal between the primary and secondary hydraulic circuits, and a load sense valve having an open position at which pressure signal flow between the primary hydraulic circuit and the main resolver is allowed, and a closed position at which pressure signal flow between the primary hydraulic circuit and the main resolver is blocked. In an embodiment, when the load sense valve is in the closed position, the second load sense controlled pump may be controlled only by the secondary hydraulic circuit.

A hydraulic drive system includes control valve and operating devices, a variable displacement pump, and a flow regulator. When an operating lever inclination angle becomes a value, a control valve opening area becomes a reference. When the operating lever inclination angle maximizes, the opening area maximizes. The flow regulator: until the operating lever inclination angle becomes the value, increases the pump discharge flow rate with the inclination angle, so a differential pressure between pump discharge and actuator load pressures is constant; when the operating lever inclination angle becomes the value, controls the pump discharge flow rate, so a control valve passing flow rate is an actuator maximum flow rate when the differential pressure is constant; and when the operating lever inclination angle is between the value and the maximum, defines a maximum pump discharge flow rate, so the pump discharge flow rate is kept to the actuator maximum flow rate.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis and a vehicle body. A variable displacement pump is positioned within the vehicle body and is configured to pump hydraulic fluid from a hydraulic fluid reservoir into a high pressure line of a hydraulic circuit. A lifting system on the vehicle includes at least one actuator in fluid communication with the variable displacement pump, which delivers pressurized hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic fluid reservoir to the actuator through the high pressure line to adjust a position of the actuator. A valve is positioned downstream of the variable displacement pump. In a first valve position, the valve restricts flow outward from the high pressure line. In a second valve position, the valve directs fluid from the high pressure line into a lower pressure line to reduce a hydraulic pressure within the high pressure line and adjust an output parameter of the variable displacement pump.

In one aspect, a system for controlling the supply of hydraulic fluid to an implement of a work vehicle may generally include a pump, a control valve coupled to the pump and first and second fluid lines provided in flow communication with output ports of the control valve. The system may also include a pressure control valve provided in flow communication with the second fluid line that is configured to regulate a fluid pressure of the hydraulic fluid being supplied to a hydraulic cylinder of the implement. Additionally, the system may include a bypass fluid line configured to provide a flow path for hydraulic fluid between the pump and the second fluid line that is independent of the control valve and a load sensing line configured to provide an indication of the fluid pressure of the hydraulic fluid being supplied to the hydraulic cylinder.

An apparatus comprising a synthetically commutated machine with one or more services, a prime mover coupled to the machine, a hydraulic circuit extending between the services and hydraulic loads to fluidically connect the services to the hydraulic loads such that groups of one or more services are fluidically connected to respective groups of one or more hydraulic loads. The apparatus configured such that the flow of hydraulic fluid to or from a group of services of the machine is controlled responsive to measuring a flow rate and/or pressure requirement of the hydraulic loads which are fluidically connected to the services, or receiving a demand signal indicative of a demanded pressure and/or flow rate based on a pressure and/or flow demand of hydraulic loads which are fluidically connected to the services.

A control system for a mobile agricultural machine having a hydraulic supply system which includes electronic load sensing and headland control assistance is configured to predictively adjust the pump supply when a headland sequence is initiated. The pump supply may be increased irrespective of the reported hydraulic load at the time the headland sequence is initiated to meet a predicted hydraulic demand of the headland sequence. The control system may revert to a load-sensing-based control of the pump supply after a given time period or in dependence on a predefined operational parameter being met. A corresponding method of controlling a hydraulic system on an agricultural mobile machine is also disclosed.

The object is to make it possible to efficiently utilize rated output torque of the prime mover by performing total torque control with high precision through precise detection of absorption torque of the other hydraulic pump by use of a purely hydraulic structure and feedback of the absorption torque to the one hydraulic pump's side. For this purpose, the hydraulic drive system is equipped with: a torque feedback circuit 112v which is supplied with delivery pressure of a main pump 202 and load sensing drive pressure, modifies the delivery pressure of the main pump 202 to achieve a characteristic simulating the absorption torque of the main pump 202, and outputs the modified pressure; and a torque feedback piston 112f which is supplied with output pressure of the torque feedback circuit and controls displacement of a main pump 102 so as to decrease the displacement of the main pump 102 and thereby decrease maximum torque T12max as the output pressure increases. The torque feedback circuit 112v includes first and second variable pressure reducing valves 112g and 112q.

The inlet section further including a main spring active on the second area of the slider in a direction consistent with action of the second pressure and a control device of the slider. The control device of the slider includes a mechanical actuator member selectively active on the slider in a direction consistent with the action of the first pressure on the first area of the slider so as to force the slider in the second position.
