Hydraulic drive system for construction machine
In a hydraulic drive system performing the load sensing control by using a pump device having two delivery ports whose delivery flow rates are controlled by a single pump controller, surplus flow is prevented and energy loss at an unload valve and a pressure compensating valve is reduced in combined operations in which two actuators are driven at the same time while producing a relatively large supply flow rate difference therebetween.

Hydrostatic Drive
A hydrostatic drive includes a diesel engine and a hydrostatic adjustable machine which supplies multiple consumers in normal operation as a pump. The machine has a pressure/flow regulator to which is communicated, according to the load-sensing principle, the highest load pressure of the consumers, in particular when the machine is operated as a pump. In order to realize a start/stop function of the diesel engine, a previously charged high-pressure reservoir supplies the hydrostatic machine, which then acts as a starter motor for the diesel engine. In order to switch from pump to starter motor, the hydro-machine is adjusted over zero. In order for this switch to take place quickly and reliably, the pressure/flow regulator is deactivated by means of a switching valve and the adjustment device is supplied with an adjustment pressure medium via the switching valve, which medium is taken from the high-pressure reservoir or from an auxiliary reservoir.
Control device
A control device, for a hydraulic consumer (22) and susceptible to vibrations, includes a valve (24) having a control spool (40) controllable by an actuating device (46). The valve (24) has a pressure supply port (P), to which a pressure compensator valve can be connected, which can be supplied with pressure fluid from a pressure supply device. The actuating device (46) has a motor (74). A load-pressure-dependent force on the control spool (40) can be generated by a control device (66). That force at the control spool (40) acts on an electronic motor controller (208) of the DC motor (74), which detects a change of the force and acts as a damping of the vibrations of the consumer (22) against this change of force.
