Construction machine
A construction machine makes it possible for an operator to linearly push a bucket by operating an arm in a pushing direction. A controller is configured to, in case a straight locus is selected by a bucket locus selecting device, calculate a constant flow rate ratio according to a boom initial angle that is an angle of a boom sensed by a boom angle sensor at a time point when an arm is operated in a pushing direction by an operation device, and control the delivery flow rate of a first hydraulic pump such that a hydraulic fluid is discharged from a boom cylinder cap chamber at a flow rate obtained by multiplying a flow rate of a flow supplied to an arm cylinder cap chamber by the flow rate ratio while the arm is operated in the pushing direction and there is no boom operating instruction.
Fluid pressure system
A fluid pressure system includes an actuator, an operating valve, and a spool valve. The spool valve is connected to a pressure source and a tank by a pressure source line and a tank line, respectively, and connected to the actuator by a first movement line and a second movement line. The spool valve moves from a neutral position to a movement position by a moving amount corresponding to a pilot pressure outputted from the operating valve, the movement position being a position at which the spool valve allows the pressure source line to communicate with the first movement line and allows the second movement line to communicate with the tank line. A relief line branches off from the second movement line, and the relief line connects to a tank. A variable throttle valve is provided on the relief line.
System for selectively bypassing fluid supply to one or more operational systems of a machine
A hydraulic system is provided to selectively and independently route pressurized fluid to one or more operational systems of a machine. The hydraulic system is capable of switching fluid flow in operation from one of the operational systems to another of the operational systems in the event of hydraulic drive power being required by the latter one of the operational systems. The hydraulic system is also configured to continue supplying a nominal amount of fluid to support one or more auxiliary functions, for example, a lubrication system for bearings associated with the former one of the operational systems while routing the pressurized fluid to the latter one of the operational systems. A recirculation and anti-cavitation arrangement is also provided to allow recirculation of fluid to a hydraulic motor in the former one of the operational systems when pressurized fluid is being routed to the latter one of the operational systems.
Fluid cooler bypass system for an agricultural work vehicle
A cooler bypass valve assembly for an agricultural implement includes a cooler bypass valve configured to receive hydraulic fluid from a hydraulic supply. The cooler bypass valve position is adjustable between a first position that facilitates flow of the hydraulic fluid to a cooler bypass and restricts flow of the hydraulic fluid to a hydraulic fluid cooler, and a second position that blocks flow of the hydraulic fluid to the cooler bypass and facilitates flow of the hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic fluid cooler. The hydraulic fluid cooler is capable of reducing a temperature of the hydraulic fluid, and the cooler bypass directs the hydraulic fluid around the hydraulic fluid cooler. Additionally, the cooler bypass valve assembly includes a control assembly that controls the cooler bypass valve position based on the temperature of the hydraulic fluid.

The reclamation device captures and stores a portion of hydraulic fluid displaced from the actuator during a transition between opposed motions, where the portion of hydraulic fluid corresponds to an amount of hydraulic fluid equal to a volume of fluid required to compensate for compression of fluid within the hydraulic circuit due to system pressure and load pressure. The stored fluid is used by the circuit in a subsequent motion.
