Wheel loader
A wheel loader configured to reduce the traveling distance required for a raise and run operation, and reduce fuel consumption includes: an engine 3; a torque converter 41; a forward and reverse switch 62; a stepping amount sensor 610; an operation amount sensor 73; and a controller 5. The controller 5 determines whether a specific condition for specifying an operation of the lift arm 21 in an upper direction during forward travel of the vehicle body, on the basis of a forward and reverse switching signal, the stepping amount on the accelerator pedal 61, and a pilot pressure Ti pertaining to the lifting operation amount for the lift arm 21. When the specific condition is satisfied, the vehicle speed is limited by reducing the maximum rotational speed of the engine 3 in response to increase in the pilot pressure Ti.
Hydraulic system for working machine
A hydraulic system includes a first supply line connecting a boom control valve and a bottom side of a boom cylinder, a second supply line connecting the boom control valve and a rod side of the boom cylinder, a leveling switch valve having: a first operating position allowing a leveling operation of a working tool; and a first stopping position allowing the leveling operation to stop, a ride controller including: a ride-control switch valve connected to a branched fluid line branched from the first supply line; and an accumulator configured to perform an anti-vibrating operation for suppressing a pressure fluctuation of the boom cylinder, and a drain fluid line to discharge operation fluid in a downstream section extending from the leveling switch valve to the rod side of the boom cylinder in the second supply line when the leveling switch valve is switched to the first stopping position.
METHOD OF CONTROLLING WORKING MACHINE, CONTROL SYSTEM AND WORKING MACHINE
The invention relates to a method of controlling a working machine. The working machine comprises a first power source arranged to drive a mechanical driveline, a hydraulic system comprising a hydraulic pump and an actuator arranged to be driven to move by the hydraulic pump, where the hydraulic pump is separated from, or disconnectable from, the first power source. The method comprises determining whether the working machine is in an increased response mode. The method further comprises increasing a response of the hydraulic system upon determining that the working machine is in the increased response mode.
Working machine
A working machine comprises an operation member for operating a hydraulic device via a control valve. An oscillation calculator acquires a specific value corresponding to a feature representing oscillation of the operation member when the feature appears in variation of an control signal output according to an operation amount of the operation member within one of a sequence of predetermined periods, and calculates an evaluation value representing a degree of oscillation of the operation member by adding up the specific value or values obtained within one or more of the predetermined periods. A control signal generator generates a control signal for controlling the control valve based on the operation signal. The control signal generator decreases a value of the control signal per a unit value of the operation signal as the evaluation value gradually increases with the elapse of one or more of the sequence of the predetermined periods.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MINI-LOADERS OR OTHER POWER MACHINES
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for power machines, including a mini-loader that includes a frame, an operator station positioned toward a rear end of the frame and configured to be used by an operator who is behind or on the rear end of the frame, and a power source positioned toward a front end of the frame.
Control of a hydraulic system
A hydraulic system may include a first actuator to control a first linkage member, a second actuator to control a second linkage member, a first primary hydraulic circuit and a first secondary hydraulic circuit that include the first actuator, a second primary hydraulic circuit and a second secondary hydraulic circuit that include the second actuator, a first pump to cause fluid to flow through the first primary hydraulic circuit and the second secondary hydraulic circuit, a second pump to cause fluid to flow through the second primary hydraulic circuit and the first secondary hydraulic circuit, and a controller. The controller may be configured to determine that an operator assistance mode is enabled, and cause closing of a first valve that controls fluid flow through the first secondary hydraulic circuit and a second valve that controls fluid flow through the second secondary hydraulic circuit.
LINKAGE ARRANGEMENT FOR A WORKING MACHINE
