Definitions
- the invention relates to a working machine with at least one hydraulic actuator for actuating a working device and a driven by a drive unit of the working machine first displacer unit, which feeds the hydraulic actuator from a hydraulic tank with hydraulic medium.
- An example of a corresponding work machine is a hydraulic excavator, the boom arm of which can be actuated by means of a hydraulic linear actuator, such as a piston-cylinder unit.
- a hydraulic linear actuator such as a piston-cylinder unit.
- a generic working machine is extended by at least one driven by the drive unit second displacer unit, which feeds the hydraulic actuator and / or further separate hydraulic consumers from a hydraulic tank with hydraulic medium in a working operation.
- the second displacer unit is driven by the hydraulic volume displaced by the at least one hydraulic actuator or by another hydraulic consumer.
- the kinetic energy thus generated is fed back via the drive shaft to the drive unit, whereby the drive unit is relieved during the Rekuperations horres.
- the additional second displacer unit therefore not only serves for energy recovery, but acts in regular working mode as an additional working pump, which either supports the first displacer unit or alternatively supplies separate consumers with energy.
- both the first displacer unit and the second displacer unit are part of an open hydraulic circuit, ie the hydraulic actuator is supplied with energy via an open hydraulic circuit.
- a control block via which the outgoing pressure lines of the first and the second displacer unit with the hydraulic actuator and possibly with other consumers are connectable.
- a corresponding control block comprises at least at least one control slide for the hydraulic actuator or further control slide for additional optional consumers.
- a corresponding control slide can preferably provide a plurality of switching states, for example, in each case one switching position per direction of movement of the actuator and optionally a neutral position for the separation of the pressure line from the actuator input. The same applies preferably to the at least one further control slide for optional consumers.
- At least one first valve in particular directional control valve, is provided with at least two switching positions, which is arranged between the second displacer unit and the control block.
- the connection between the second displacer unit and the control block can be released or interrupted. Accordingly, therefore, a first switching position is provided, which releases a volume flow from the second displacer unit to the control block, while a second switching position interrupts a volume flow between the second displacer unit and the control block.
- At least one second valve in particular a directional control valve, can be provided that switches or interrupts a direct connection between the at least one hydraulic actuator and the second displacer unit.
- the second directional control valve is connected to the output of the hydraulic actuator to which a corresponding volume flow can be generated during the load-related lowering for the energy recuperation.
- this may preferably be the bottom-side connection.
- the second directional control valve ideally comprises at least two switching positions, wherein a first switching position a Volume flow from the hydraulic actuator to the second displacer unit switches, while the second switching position blocks a flow from the actuator to the second displacer unit.
- At least one machine control of the working machine which controls the first and second directional valve correspondingly for the recuperation operation or the regular working operation.
- the corresponding control can be effected in dependence on the position of an operating lever provided for the actuator actuation.
- This machine control can be designed as a separate machine control, but it offers itself to their integration into an already provided machine control.
- the first directional control valve for the recuperation operation is brought by the machine control in its blocking position, while the second directional control valve is switched to its flow position.
- the valves are switched accordingly by the engine control when the operating lever is moved to a position for load-related lowering. In this state, the volume flow generated by the lowering of the actuator via the second directional control valve can feed the operating as a hydraulic motor second displacer unit.
- the machine control switches the first directional control valve in its flow control, while the second directional control valve remains in its blocking position.
- the working as a hydraulic pump second displacer unit sucks in this case hydraulic medium from the tank and feeds the flow through the first directional control valve in the pressure line of the working circuit or in the pressure line of the control block. The same can also apply to a neutral position of the operating lever.
- the at least one hydraulic actuator is a piston-cylinder unit, which preferably serves to actuate a boom of the working machine. At the Lowering the boom accordingly switches the work machine into the recuperation mode so that the potential energy released can be fed back into the overall system by means of the second displacer unit.
- at least one hydraulic actuator is a rotatory consumer, for example a hydraulic drive of the working machine.
- the second displacer unit may be an adjustable pump motor. Also conceivable is an electrically controlled pump with check valve in the intake. The latter would make the use of the aforementioned first-way valve between positive displacement pump and control block unnecessary.
- the machine control of the working machine adjusts the pivot angle of the adjustable hydraulic motor or the electrically controlled pump in recuperation depending on a desired target moving speed of the hydraulic actuator, in particular the piston-cylinder unit, i. depending on the desired lowering speed of the hydraulic actuator, preferably the cantilever arm.
- the desired lowering speed can preferably be determined based on the actual position of an operating lever for actuating the actuator. Consequently, the machine control is connected to the operating lever for determining its actual position.
- the set swivel angle can be used to set the maximum volumetric flow produced by the actuator during recuperation operation.
- the swivel angle can be effected as a function of the encoder position of an encoder for controlling the rotary drive and / or as a function of the sensed speed of the rotary drive.
- At least one further hydraulic consumer is during the recuperation operation by the first displacer unit with hydraulic energy supplied. It works only the second displacer unit in engine operation, the regular operation of the first displacer unit remains unaffected.
- a throttle in particular a variable orifice, preferably in the form of a proportional directional control valve with an open and a blocking end position, is introduced.
- the triggered speed of the second displacer unit can be controlled by throttling the volume flow generated by the actuator. In particular, this is intended to reduce or prevent a speed increase of the drive unit due to the kinetic energy of the second displacer unit.
- the second directional control valve at least one proportionally controllable bypass valve whose degree of opening is increased by the machine control, if the desired speed of movement of the actuator can not be achieved in the recuperation operation due to the volume flow limitation of the second displacer unit, i. the required volume flow at the output of the actuator would exceed the maximum possible volume flow of the second displacer unit.
- the bypass valve With the aid of the bypass valve, the excess volume flow can be directed via the bypass into the hydraulic tank, thus ensuring that the desired speed of movement of the actuator is achieved.
- a linear actuator in the form of the piston-cylinder unit 80, which serves to actuate the excavator boom of the working machine according to the invention.
- the required hydraulic pressure is provided by the main pump 20, which is driven via the central drive unit 10.
- the pump 20 is designed as a variable displacement pump.
- the hydraulic circuit is designed as an open hydraulic circuit, since the hydraulic pump 20 sucks the necessary hydraulic medium from the tank and supplies the linear actuator 80 with hydraulic energy via the control block 90. Via the block 90, the feed pressure can optionally be supplied to the bottom-side or rod-side connection of the actuator in order to control the actuation direction of the piston.
- a second displacer unit 30 is mounted which, via the same output shaft of the drive assembly 10, together with the first displacer unit 20 is driven by the drive unit 10.
- This second displacer unit is designed as an adjustable pump motor whose pivot angle is set by the central machine controller 60.
- the displacer unit 30 is connected on the one hand to the hydraulic tank and provides in regular working operation in dependence on the set pivot angle, a corresponding volume flow at its output.
- This pressure line is connected via a first directional control valve 40 to the control block 90 in connection, wherein the output of the directional control valve 40 is merged with the pressure output line of the main pump 20.
- the directional control valve 40 comprises two switching positions. In the first switching position, the valve is permeable in the direction of the control block 90, so that the output pressure of the hydraulic motor 30, together with the pressure line of the main pump 20 at the pressure input of the control block 90 is applied. In the second switching position, the valve locks. The switching position of the directional control valve is actuated by the controller 60.
- the displacer unit 30 is connected to the linear actuator 80 via the same connection by means of the directional control valve 50.
- the valve inlet is connected to the bottom-side connection of the linear actuator, since there in the recuperation mode, i. when lowering the excavator boom, a volume flow is generated by bottom escaping hydraulic oil.
- the valve 50 also includes two switch positions, one of which releases the flow from the actuator 80 to the hydraulic motor 30 and the second blocks the flow. Also, this directional control valve 50 is controlled via the central control unit 60.
- control block 90 Via the control block 90, further hydraulic consumers 100, 110 can be supplied with the necessary pressure level by the pumps 20, 30. About the operating lever 70, the actuator 80 is operated.
- the position of the operating lever is detected by the control.
- the controller 60 In the neutral position of the operating lever 70 or in its position for lifting the boom (hereinafter referred to as operating mode), the controller 60 ensures that the valve 40 remains in its passage position and the valve 50 in the blocking position.
- the displacer unit 30 operates in this case as an additional working pump and the volume flow generated is provided via the valve 40 at the pressure input of the control block 90. Due to the blocking position of the valve 50, the bottom-side connection of the actuator is connected only to the control block 90.
- additional consumers 100, 110 can be supplied with oil by the working pumps 20, 30.
- the controller 60 switches the second directional control valve 50 to its flow position and the swivel angle of the hydraulic motor 30 is set to a negative swivel angle.
- the hydraulic pressure of the bottom side of the actuator 80 can be discharged via the directional control valve 50 to the displacement unit operating as a motor, whereby this generates a torque which relieves the drive shaft of the drive motor 10.
- the concrete pivoting angle of the pump motor 30 is determined by the controller 60 as a function of the actual deflection of the transmitter 70, because this is ultimately crucial for the achievable lowering speed of the boom.
- the further consumers 100, 110 can continue to be supplied by the working pump 20 with hydraulic oil in recuperation operation.
- FIG. 2 shows details of the control block 90 for the control of the actuator 80 and other consumers 100 according to a first embodiment.
- the common pressure line of the displacement units 20, 30 communicates with a first spool 91 in the form of a proportional directional control valve. This comprises a total of three switching positions a, b and d. With a is the neutral position marked, in which the valve completely locks. In the switching position b, the pressure line of the displacement units 20, 30 is connected to the bottom side of the actuator 80, the extending piston rod preferably leads to the lifting of the boom. In the switching position d, however, the pressure line is connected to the rod side of the actuator 80, the volume flow provided by the displacement units 20, 30 actively pushes the piston into the cylinder unit and the boom is "actively" lowered.
- the valve 40 is moved to its blocking position, so that no oil from the displacer unit 30 can flow to the spool 91.
- the spool 91 remains in neutral position a and the valve 50 is opened.
- the displacer unit 30 is set in dependence on the deflection of the encoder 70, which determines the lowering speed to a certain negative pivoting angle. This lowers the equipment at the desired speed.
- oil is required on the rod side of the cylinder 80, which is supplied from the tank via the suction valve 93 of the control block 90.
- the displacer unit 30 generates a moment which is determined by the pressure prevailing in the cylinder bottom of the actuator 80 and the set pivoting angle of the displacer unit 30. By this moment, the drive unit 10 is relieved.
- valve 40 is switched to its flow position, while the valve 50 is in the blocking position. Oil can now flow from the displacer unit 30 to the spool 91, which is in the position 91d.
- the spool 91 must forward the oil from the pumps 20, 30 to the rod side of the lift cylinder 80. The oil from the bottom side must flow back via the spool 91 to the tank, the Valve 50 remains locked.
- the displacer unit 30 acts in this operating state as a second working pump or as a pump for further consumers 100.
- the valve 40 For regular work operation, i. for raising the boom, the valve 40 is opened, oil can flow from the displacer unit 30 to the spool 91. The valve 50 remains closed. In this operating state, the displacer unit 30 is a second work pump or a pump for additional consumers 100.
- control of the further consumer in the form of a second piston-cylinder unit 100 is similarly realized by means of a second identical control slide 92 and additional Nachsaugeventilen.
- FIG. 3 A modified embodiment of the hydraulics is FIG. 3 refer to. Identical components are provided with identical reference numerals.
- a variable metering orifice 120 is additionally inserted.
- This proportionally controllable directional control valve 120 assumes an opening degree between a full bidirectional flow end position and a second end position in which the valve 120 is completely shut off.
- the current opening degree of the throttle 120 is also set by the controller 60.
- the throttle 120 is intended, for example, to prevent the motor 10 from being accelerated by the torque output of the displacer unit 30. For this purpose, a reduction of the volume flow is necessary, which is achieved by the corresponding reduction of the cross section in the valve 120.
- the spool 91 of the control block 90 comprises the FIG. 3 an additional switching position 91c. If the volume flow due to the required setpoint speed of the actuator 80 is greater than the possible volume flow via the displacer unit 30, the spool 91 is switched to the position 91c.
- an additional bypass valve 130 can be arranged downstream of the directional control valve 50, as shown in FIG. 4 is shown.
- This proportionally controllable directional control valve 130 switches, depending on the degree of opening, a bypass of the volumetric flow generated in the recuperation operation into the hydraulic tank. If the volume flow due to the required setpoint speed of the actuator 80 is greater than the maximum possible volume flow of the displacer unit 30, the bypass valve 130 is opened so far that the required lowering speed can be achieved.
- the presented embodiments of the hydraulic circuits of FIGS. 1 to 4 can not only be used for energy recovery in linear actuators, but the presented operating principle can also be used in rotary actuators.
- the hydraulic structure corresponds essentially to the hydraulic circuit diagram of FIG. 4 , same components and components were also used in FIG. 5 with the same reference numbers we in the FIGS. 1 to 4 designated. For the description thereof, reference is therefore made to the preceding description of the figures.
- a rotary drive 110 driven In contrast to FIG. 4 is in FIG. 5 by means of the control block in addition to the linear actuators a rotary drive 110 driven.
- the rotary drive can, for example, be a traction drive of the working machine.
- this has been supplemented inter alia by the additional proportional control valves 95, 96, which provide the necessary hydraulic supply to the drive 110.
- energy is to be recovered during the deceleration of the rotary consumer 110 in order to deliver a torque to the internal combustion engine 10 by means of the displacer unit 30.
- valve 40 In normal operation of the consumer 110, the valve 40 is switched to the open position, allowing oil to flow from the displacer unit 30 to the spool 90.
- the valve 50 must be closed.
- the valves 95, 96 of the control block 90 depending on the position of the now provided encoder 114 an opening cross-section, whereby the required speed and / or speed of the motor 110 can be adjusted.
- the direction of rotation can be specified.
- the rotary drive 110 can be accelerated or the current rotational speed can be maintained.
- the valve 40 is switched to the closed position, therefore no oil can flow from the displacer unit 30 to the control block 90.
- the valve 50 is opened.
- the valve 95 must be in the lower control position.
- the valve 96 is in the closed position.
- the additional directional valve 112 is in this case on the discharge side of the engine 110 and must be in the open switching position, whereby the draining oil can be passed through the displacer unit 30 in the tank.
- the displacer unit 30 is set to a certain negative swivel angle, which is predetermined by the ECU 60.
- the ECU 60 calculates the value of the swing angle from the drive speed that the sensor 111 specifies and the detected position of the encoder 114.
- the displacer unit 30 generates a torque resulting from the generated hydraulic pressure of the drive 110 during the braking operation and the set tilting angle of the displacer unit 30, and outputs it to the engine 10.
- the other consumers 80, 100 can meanwhile be supplied by the working pump 20 with oil.
- a control similar to a closed circuit can take place.
- the work pump 20 and one of the valves 95 or 96 specify the speed of the motor 110 in dependence on the encoder 114.
- one of the valves 112, 113 which is on the outflow side of the engine 110, must always be in the open position. Thus, the draining oil flows back through the valve 120 and via the displacer unit 30.
- valves 120 and 130 corresponds to the function already described with reference to the embodiment of FIG. 4 was explained. If the rotatory consumer 110 have a brake valve (not shown here), this must of course also be controllable by the ECU 60.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Arbeitsmaschine mit wenigstens einem hydraulischen Aktor zur Betätigung eines Arbeitsgerätes und einer durch einen Antriebsaggregat der Arbeitsmaschine angetriebenen ersten Verdrängereinheit, die den hydraulischen Aktor aus einem Hydrauliktank mit Hydraulikmedium speist.The invention relates to a working machine with at least one hydraulic actuator for actuating a working device and a driven by a drive unit of the working machine first displacer unit, which feeds the hydraulic actuator from a hydraulic tank with hydraulic medium.
Ein Beispiel für eine entsprechende Arbeitsmaschine ist ein hydraulischer Bagger, dessen Auslegerarm mittels eines hydraulischen Linearaktors wie einer Kolbenzylindereinheit betätigbar ist. Üblicherweise muss für das Absenken des Auslegers keine hydraulische Energie aufgebracht werden, da sich der Ausleger lastbedingt absenken kann. In diesem Zusammenhang ist es wünschenswert, die dabei frei werdende potentielle Energie in das System zurückzuspeisen.An example of a corresponding work machine is a hydraulic excavator, the boom arm of which can be actuated by means of a hydraulic linear actuator, such as a piston-cylinder unit. Usually, no hydraulic energy has to be applied for lowering the boom, since the boom can lower due to load. In this context, it is desirable to feed back the potential energy released thereby into the system.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind bisher diverse Lösungsansätze für die Energierekuperation bekannt. Ein Teil dieser Lösungsansätze setzt auf einen geschlossenen Hydraulikkreis für die Energierekuperation, was jedoch vergleichsweise teuer und komplex ist. Gemäß alternativen Lösungen wird bei einer Senkbewegung ein Verdränger mit dem zurückgespeisten Hydraulikmedium gefördert. Das dadurch erzeugte Drehmoment treibt einen angeschlossenen Generator zur Erzeugung elektrischer Energie an. Die dazu benötigte Elektrik macht auch diese Lösung vergleichsweise aufwändig und teuer, insbesondere da die zurückgewonnene Energie zunächst zwischengespeichert werden muss.Various approaches to energy recuperation have hitherto been known from the state of the art. Part of this approach relies on a closed hydraulic recycle circuit, which is relatively expensive and complex. According to alternative solutions, a displacer is conveyed with the recirculated hydraulic medium during a lowering movement. The generated thereby Torque drives a connected generator to generate electrical energy. The required electrical system also makes this solution comparatively complicated and expensive, especially since the recovered energy must first be cached.
Gesucht wird daher nach einer alternativen Lösung, die vergleichsweise einfach ist.The search is therefore for an alternative solution that is comparatively simple.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Arbeitsmaschine gemäß den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Arbeitsmaschine sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is achieved by a working machine according to the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the working machine are the subject of the dependent claims.
Erfindungsgemäß wird demzufolge eine gattungsgemäße Arbeitsmaschine um wenigstens eine durch das Antriebsaggregat angetriebene zweite Verdrängereinheit erweitert, die in einem Arbeitsbetrieb den hydraulischen Aktor und/oder weitere separate hydraulische Verbraucher aus einem Hydrauliktank mit Hydraulikmedium speist. Während eines Rekuperationsbetriebs wird die zweite Verdrängereinheit durch das von dem wenigstens einen hydraulischen Aktor oder einem weiteren hydraulischen Verbraucher verdrängte Hydraulikvolumen angetrieben. Die hierdurch erzeugte kinetische Energie wird über die Antriebswelle an das Antriebsaggregat zurückgespeist, wodurch das Antriebsaggregat während des Rekuperationsbetriebes entlastet wird.According to the invention, therefore, a generic working machine is extended by at least one driven by the drive unit second displacer unit, which feeds the hydraulic actuator and / or further separate hydraulic consumers from a hydraulic tank with hydraulic medium in a working operation. During a recuperation operation, the second displacer unit is driven by the hydraulic volume displaced by the at least one hydraulic actuator or by another hydraulic consumer. The kinetic energy thus generated is fed back via the drive shaft to the drive unit, whereby the drive unit is relieved during the Rekuperationsbetriebes.
Die zusätzliche zweite Verdrängereinheit dient demzufolge nicht nur für die Energierückgewinnung, sondern agiert im regulären Arbeitsbetrieb als zusätzliche Arbeitspumpe, die entweder die erste Verdrängereinheit unterstützt oder alternativ separate Verbraucher mit Energie versorgt.The additional second displacer unit therefore not only serves for energy recovery, but acts in regular working mode as an additional working pump, which either supports the first displacer unit or alternatively supplies separate consumers with energy.
Bezeichnend für die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist, dass sowohl die erste Verdrängereinheit als auch die zweite Verdrängereinheit Teil eines offenen Hydraulikreislaufes sind, d.h. der hydraulische Aktor wird über einen offenen Hydraulikkreislauf mit Energie versorgt. Dadurch wird die Umsetzung der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung deutlich einfacher im Vergleich zu bestehenden Lösungen des Standes der Technik.It is characteristic of the solution according to the invention that both the first displacer unit and the second displacer unit are part of an open hydraulic circuit, ie the hydraulic actuator is supplied with energy via an open hydraulic circuit. As a result, the implementation of the solution according to the invention significantly easier compared to existing solutions of the prior art.
Gemäß vorteilhafter Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist ein Steuerblock vorgesehen, über den die ausgehenden Druckleitungen der ersten als auch der zweiten Verdrängereinheit mit dem hydraulischen Aktor und ggf. mit weiteren Verbrauchern verbindbar sind. Ein entsprechender Steuerblock umfasst zumindest wenigstens einen Steuerschieber für den hydraulischen Aktor bzw. weitere Steuerschieber für zusätzliche optionale Verbraucher. Ein entsprechender Steuerschieber kann vorzugsweise mehrere Schaltzustände vorsehen, bspw. jeweils eine Schaltstellung pro Bewegungsrichtung des Aktors und gegebenenfalls eine Neutralstellung für die Trennung der Druckleitung vom Aktoreingang. Selbiges gilt vorzugsweise für den wenigstens einen weiteren Steuerschieber für optionale Verbraucher.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, a control block is provided, via which the outgoing pressure lines of the first and the second displacer unit with the hydraulic actuator and possibly with other consumers are connectable. A corresponding control block comprises at least at least one control slide for the hydraulic actuator or further control slide for additional optional consumers. A corresponding control slide can preferably provide a plurality of switching states, for example, in each case one switching position per direction of movement of the actuator and optionally a neutral position for the separation of the pressure line from the actuator input. The same applies preferably to the at least one further control slide for optional consumers.
Gemäß besonders bevorzugter Ausgestaltung ist wenigstens ein erstes Ventil, insbesondere Wegeventil, mit wenigstens zwei Schaltstellungen vorgesehen, das zwischen zweiter Verdrängereinheit und Steuerblock angeordnet ist. Über die wenigstens zwei Schaltstellungen kann die Verbindung zwischen zweiter Verdrängereinheit und Steuerblock freigegeben bzw. unterbrochen werden. Demzufolge ist also eine erste Schaltstellung vorgesehen, die einen Volumenstrom von der zweiten Verdrängereinheit zum Steuerblock freigibt, während eine zweite Schaltstellung einen Volumenstrom zwischen zweiter Verdrängereinheit und Steuerblock unterbricht.According to a particularly preferred embodiment, at least one first valve, in particular directional control valve, is provided with at least two switching positions, which is arranged between the second displacer unit and the control block. About the at least two switching positions, the connection between the second displacer unit and the control block can be released or interrupted. Accordingly, therefore, a first switching position is provided, which releases a volume flow from the second displacer unit to the control block, while a second switching position interrupts a volume flow between the second displacer unit and the control block.
Zusätzlich kann wenigstens ein zweites Ventil, insbesondere Wegeventil, vorgesehen sein, dass eine direkte Verbindung zwischen dem wenigstens einem hydraulischen Aktor und der zweiten Verdrängereinheit schaltet bzw. unterbricht. Insbesondere ist das zweite Wegeventil mit dem Ausgang des hydraulischen Aktors verbunden, an dem beim lastbedingten Absenken für die Energierekuperation ein entsprechender Volumenstrom erzeugbar ist. Bei einer Kolben-Zylindereinheit kann dies bevorzugt der bodenseitige Anschluss sein. Das zweite Wegeventil umfasst idealerweise wenigstens zwei Schaltstellungen, wobei eine erste Schaltstellung einen Volumenstrom vom hydraulischen Aktor zur zweiten Verdrängereinheit schaltet, während die zweite Schaltstellung einen Volumenstrom vom Aktor zur zweiten Verdrängereinheit sperrt.In addition, at least one second valve, in particular a directional control valve, can be provided that switches or interrupts a direct connection between the at least one hydraulic actuator and the second displacer unit. In particular, the second directional control valve is connected to the output of the hydraulic actuator to which a corresponding volume flow can be generated during the load-related lowering for the energy recuperation. In a piston-cylinder unit, this may preferably be the bottom-side connection. The second directional control valve ideally comprises at least two switching positions, wherein a first switching position a Volume flow from the hydraulic actuator to the second displacer unit switches, while the second switching position blocks a flow from the actuator to the second displacer unit.
Darüber hinaus ist es zweckmäßig, wenn wenigstens eine Maschinensteuerung der Arbeitsmaschine vorgesehen ist, die das erste und zweite Wegeventil entsprechend für den Rekuperationsbetrieb bzw. den regulären Arbeitsbetrieb ansteuert. Die entsprechende Ansteuerung kann in Abhängigkeit der Stellung eines für die Aktorbetätigung vorgesehenen Bedienhebels erfolgen. Diese Maschinensteuerung kann als separate Maschinensteuerung ausgestaltet sein, es bietet sich jedoch deren Integration in eine ohnehin vorgesehene Maschinensteuerung an.In addition, it is expedient if at least one machine control of the working machine is provided, which controls the first and second directional valve correspondingly for the recuperation operation or the regular working operation. The corresponding control can be effected in dependence on the position of an operating lever provided for the actuator actuation. This machine control can be designed as a separate machine control, but it offers itself to their integration into an already provided machine control.
Bevorzugt ist es, wenn das erste Wegeventil für den Rekuperationsbetrieb von der Maschinensteuerung in seine Sperrstellung gebracht wird, während das zweite Wegeventil in seine Durchflussstellung geschaltet wird. Insbesondere werden die Ventile entsprechend durch die Maschinensteuerung geschaltet, wenn der Bedienhebel in eine Stellung zum lastbedingten Absenken verbracht wird. In diesem Zustand kann der durch das Absenken des Aktors erzeugte Volumenstrom über das zweite Wegeventil die als Hydraulikmotor arbeitende zweite Verdrängereinheit speisen.It is preferred if the first directional control valve for the recuperation operation is brought by the machine control in its blocking position, while the second directional control valve is switched to its flow position. In particular, the valves are switched accordingly by the engine control when the operating lever is moved to a position for load-related lowering. In this state, the volume flow generated by the lowering of the actuator via the second directional control valve can feed the operating as a hydraulic motor second displacer unit.
Für den regulären Arbeitsbetrieb, vorzugsweise sobald mittels des Bedienhebels eine der lastbedingten Senkbewegung gegenläufige Bewegung ausgelöst wird, schaltet die Maschinensteuerung das erste Wegeventil in seine Durchflusssteuerung, während das zweite Wegeventil in seiner Sperrstellung verbleibt. Die als Hydraulikpumpe arbeitende zweite Verdrängereinheit saugt in diesem Fall Hydraulikmedium aus dem Tank an und speist den Volumenstrom über das erste Wegeventil in die Druckleitung des Arbeitskreises bzw. in die Druckleitung des Steuerblocks ein. Gleiches kann auch für eine Neutralstellung des Bedienhebels gelten.For the regular working operation, preferably as soon as by means of the operating lever one of the load-induced lowering counteracting movement is triggered, the machine control switches the first directional control valve in its flow control, while the second directional control valve remains in its blocking position. The working as a hydraulic pump second displacer unit sucks in this case hydraulic medium from the tank and feeds the flow through the first directional control valve in the pressure line of the working circuit or in the pressure line of the control block. The same can also apply to a neutral position of the operating lever.
Bevorzugt ist der wenigstens eine hydraulische Aktor eine Kolbenzylindereinheit, die vorzugsweise zur Betätigung eines Auslegers der Arbeitsmaschine dient. Beim Absenken des Auslegers schaltet die Arbeitsmaschine demzufolge in den Rekuperationsbetrieb, sodass die abgegebene potenzielle Energie mittels der zweiten Verdrängereinheit in das Gesamtsystem zurückgespeist werden kann. Denkbar ist es jedoch ebenfalls, wenn wenigstens ein hydraulischer Aktor ein rotatorischer Verbraucher ist, bspw. ein hydraulischer Fahrantrieb der Arbeitsmaschine.Preferably, the at least one hydraulic actuator is a piston-cylinder unit, which preferably serves to actuate a boom of the working machine. At the Lowering the boom accordingly switches the work machine into the recuperation mode so that the potential energy released can be fed back into the overall system by means of the second displacer unit. However, it is also conceivable if at least one hydraulic actuator is a rotatory consumer, for example a hydraulic drive of the working machine.
Die zweite Verdrängereinheit kann ein verstellbarer Pumpenmotor sein. Denkbar ist auch eine elektrisch geregelte Pumpe mit Rückschlagventil in der Ansaugung. Letztere würde den Einsatz des vorgenannten ersten Wegeventils zwischen Verdrängerpumpe und Steuerblock unnötig machen.The second displacer unit may be an adjustable pump motor. Also conceivable is an electrically controlled pump with check valve in the intake. The latter would make the use of the aforementioned first-way valve between positive displacement pump and control block unnecessary.
Bei Verwendung des verstellbaren Hydromotors bzw. der elektrisch geregelten Pumpe ist vorgesehen, dass die Maschinensteuerung der Arbeitsmaschine den Schwenkwinkel des verstellbaren Hydromotors bzw. der elektrisch geregelten Pumpe im Rekuperationsbetrieb in Abhängigkeit einer gewünschten Soll-Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit des hydraulischen Aktors, insbesondere der Kolbenzylindereinheit einstellt, d.h. in Abhängigkeit der gewünschten Senkgeschwindigkeit des Hydraulikaktors, bevorzugt des Auslegerarms. Die gewünschte Senkgeschwindigkeit kann bevorzugt anhand der Ist-Stellung eines Bedienhebels zur Betätigung des Aktors ermittelt werden. Demzufolge ist die Maschinensteuerung mit dem Bedienhebel zur Ermittlung deren Ist-Stellung verbunden. Über den eingestellten Schwenkwinkel lässt sich der maximale, durch den Aktor im Rekuperationsbetrieb hervorgerufene Volumenstrom einstellen.When using the adjustable hydraulic motor or the electrically controlled pump is provided that the machine control of the working machine adjusts the pivot angle of the adjustable hydraulic motor or the electrically controlled pump in recuperation depending on a desired target moving speed of the hydraulic actuator, in particular the piston-cylinder unit, i. depending on the desired lowering speed of the hydraulic actuator, preferably the cantilever arm. The desired lowering speed can preferably be determined based on the actual position of an operating lever for actuating the actuator. Consequently, the machine control is connected to the operating lever for determining its actual position. The set swivel angle can be used to set the maximum volumetric flow produced by the actuator during recuperation operation.
Ist der hydraulische Aktor ein Rotationsantrieb und erfolgt die Rekuperation im Bremsbetrieb des Rotationsantriebes, so kann der Schwenkwinkel in Abhängigkeit der Geberstellung eines Gebers zur Steuerung des Rotationsantriebs und/oder in Abhängigkeit der sensorisch erfassten Drehzahl des Rotationsantriebes erfolgen.If the hydraulic actuator is a rotary drive and the recuperation takes place in the braking mode of the rotary drive, the swivel angle can be effected as a function of the encoder position of an encoder for controlling the rotary drive and / or as a function of the sensed speed of the rotary drive.
Idealerweise ist wenigstens ein weiterer hydraulischer Verbraucher während des Rekuperationsbetriebes durch die erste Verdrängereinheit mit hydraulischer Energie versorgbar. Es arbeitet lediglich die zweite Verdrängereinheit im Motorbetrieb, der reguläre Arbeitsbetrieb der ersten Verdrängereinheit bleibt hiervon unberührt.Ideally, at least one further hydraulic consumer is during the recuperation operation by the first displacer unit with hydraulic energy supplied. It works only the second displacer unit in engine operation, the regular operation of the first displacer unit remains unaffected.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass zwischen dem zweiten Wegeventil und der zweiten Verdrängereinheit zusätzlich eine Drossel, insbesondere eine variable Messblende, vorzugsweise in Form eines Proportionalwegeventils mit einer geöffneten und einer sperrenden Endstellung, eingebracht ist. Über den Öffnungsgrad der Drossel kann die ausgelöste Drehzahl der zweiten Verdrängereinheit durch Drosselung des durch den Aktor erzeugten Volumenstroms gesteuert werden. Insbesondere soll hierdurch eine Drehzahlerhöhung des Antriebsaggregates durch die abgegebene kinetische Energie der zweiten Verdrängereinheit reduziert bzw. unterbunden werden.It can be provided that between the second directional control valve and the second displacer unit additionally a throttle, in particular a variable orifice, preferably in the form of a proportional directional control valve with an open and a blocking end position, is introduced. About the opening degree of the throttle, the triggered speed of the second displacer unit can be controlled by throttling the volume flow generated by the actuator. In particular, this is intended to reduce or prevent a speed increase of the drive unit due to the kinetic energy of the second displacer unit.
Ferner ist es möglich, am Ausgang des zweiten Wegeventils wenigstens ein proportional steuerbares Bypassventil anzuordnen, dessen Öffnungsgrad durch die Maschinensteuerung erhöht wird, falls die gewünschte Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit des Aktors im Rekuperationsbetrieb aufgrund der Volumenstrombegrenzung der zweiten Verdrängereinheit nicht erreicht werden kann, d.h. der benötigte Volumenstrom am Ausgang des Aktors würde den maximal möglichen Volumenstrom der zweiten Verdrängereinheit übersteigen. Mit Hilfe des Bypass-Ventils kann der überschüssige Volumenstrom über den Bypass in den Hydrauliktank geleitet werden, so dass ein Erreichen der gewünschten Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit des Aktors sichergestellt ist.Furthermore, it is possible to arrange at the output of the second directional control valve at least one proportionally controllable bypass valve whose degree of opening is increased by the machine control, if the desired speed of movement of the actuator can not be achieved in the recuperation operation due to the volume flow limitation of the second displacer unit, i. the required volume flow at the output of the actuator would exceed the maximum possible volume flow of the second displacer unit. With the aid of the bypass valve, the excess volume flow can be directed via the bypass into the hydraulic tank, thus ensuring that the desired speed of movement of the actuator is achieved.

Die grundlegende Funktionsweise der vorliegenden Erfindung soll anhand des skizzierten Hydraulikschaltbildes der
Ersichtlich ist hier ein Linearaktor in Form der Kolbenzylindereinheit 80, der zur Betätigung des Baggerauslegers der erfindungsgemäßen Arbeitsmaschine dient. Der erforderliche Hydraulikdruck wird durch die Hauptpumpe 20 bereitgestellt, die über das zentrale Antriebsaggregat 10 angetrieben wird. Die Pumpe 20 ist als Verstellpumpe ausgeführt. Der Hydraulikkreis ist als offener Hydraulikkreislauf ausgestaltet, da die Hydraulikpumpe 20 das notwendige Hydraulikmedium aus dem Tank ansaugt und über den Steuerblock 90 den Linearaktor 80 mit hydraulischer Energie versorgt. Über den Block 90 kann der Speisedruck wahlweise dem bodenseitigen oder stangenseitigen Anschluss des Aktors zugeführt werden, um die Betätigungsrichtung des Kolbens zu steuern.It can be seen here is a linear actuator in the form of the piston-
Erfindungsgemäß ist eine zweite Verdrängereinheit 30 montiert, die über dieselbe Ausgangswelle des Antriebsaggregats 10 gemeinsam der mit ersten Verdrängereinheit 20 durch das Antriebsaggregat 10 angetrieben wird. Diese zweite Verdrängereinheit ist als verstellbarer Pumpenmotor ausgestaltet, dessen Schwenkwinkel von der zentralen Maschinensteuerung 60 eingestellt wird. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 ist zum einen mit dem Hydrauliktank verbunden und stellt im regulären Arbeitsbetrieb in Abhängigkeit des eingestellten Schwenkwinkels einen entsprechenden Volumenstrom an ihrem Ausgang zur Verfügung. Diese Druckleitung steht über ein erstes Wegeventil 40 mit dem Steuerblock 90 in Verbindung, wobei der Ausgang des Wegeventils 40 mit der Druckausgangsleitung der Hauptpumpe 20 zusammengeführt wird.According to the invention, a
Das Wegeventil 40 umfasst zwei Schaltstellungen. In der ersten Schaltstellung ist das Ventil in Richtung des Steuerblockes 90 durchlässig, so dass der Ausgangsdruck des Hydromotors 30 zusammen mit der Druckleitung der Hauptpumpe 20 am Druckeingang des Steuerblockes 90 anliegt. In der zweiten Schaltstellung sperrt das Ventil. Die Schaltstellung des Wegeventils wird durch die Steuerung 60 betätigt.The
Darüber hinaus steht die Verdrängereinheit 30 über denselben Anschluss mittels des Wegeventils 50 mit dem Linearaktor 80 in Verbindung. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Ventileingang mit dem bodenseitigen Anschluss des Linearaktors verbunden, da dort im Rekuperationsbetrieb, d.h. beim Absenken des Baggerauslegers, ein Volumenstrom durch bodenseitig austretendes Hydrauliköl erzeugt wird.In addition, the
Das Ventil 50 umfasst ebenfalls zwei Schaltstellungen, von denen eine den Durchfluss vom Aktor 80 zum Hydromotor 30 freigibt und die zweite den Durchfluss sperrt. Auch dieses Wegeventil 50 wird über die zentrale Steuereinheit 60 angesteuert.The
Über den Steuerblock 90 lassen sich weitere hydraulische Verbraucher 100, 110 mit dem notwendigen Druckniveau durch die Pumpen 20, 30 versorgen. Über den Bedienhebel 70 wird der Aktor 80 bedient.Via the
Die Stellung des Bedienhebels wird von der Steuerung erkannt. In der Neutralstellung des Bedienhebels 70 bzw. in seiner Stellung zum Anheben des Auslegers (nachfolgend Arbeitsbetrieb genannt) sorgt die Steuerung 60 dafür, dass das Ventil 40 in seiner Durchlassstellung und das Ventil 50 in der Sperrstellung verbleibt. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 arbeitet in diesem Fall als zusätzliche Arbeitspumpe und der erzeugte Volumenstrom wird über das Ventil 40 am Druckeingang des Steuerblocks 90 bereitgestellt. Aufgrund der Sperrstellung des Ventils 50 ist der bodenseitige Anschluss des Aktors nur mit dem Steuerblock 90 verbunden. Neben dem Aktor 80 können weitere Verbraucher 100, 110 von den Arbeitspumpen 20, 30 mit Öl versorgt werden.The position of the operating lever is detected by the control. In the neutral position of the operating
Wird der Bedienhebel 70 in die entsprechende Stellung zum Absenken des Baggerauslegers verbracht, so wird dies durch die Steuerung 60 erkannt und die Hydraulik in den Rekuperationsbetrieb geschaltet. Dazu wird das Ventil 40 von der Steuerung 60 in seine Sperrstellung geschaltet, wodurch der Volumenstrom von der zweiten Verdrängereinheit 30 zum Steuerblock 90 unterbrochen wird. Gleichzeitig schaltet die Steuerung 60 das zweite Wegeventil 50 in seine Durchflussstellung und der Schwenkwinkel des Hydromotors 30 wird auf einen negativen Schwenkwinkel eingestellt. Hierdurch kann der Hydraulikdruck der Bodenseite des Aktors 80 über das Wegeventil 50 an die als Motor arbeitende Verdrängereinheit abgegeben werden, wodurch diese ein Drehmoment erzeugt, das die Antriebswelle des Antriebsmotors 10 entlastet.If the operating
Der konkrete Schwenkwinkel des Pumpenmotors 30 wird von der Steuerung 60 in Abhängigkeit der tatsächlichen Auslenkung des Gebers 70 festgelegt, denn dieser ist letztendlich entscheidend für die erzielbare Senkgeschwindigkeit des Auslegerarms. Die weiteren Verbraucher 100, 110 können im Rekuperationsbetrieb weiterhin von der Arbeitspumpe 20 mit Hydrauliköl versorgt werden.The concrete pivoting angle of the
Für den Rekuperationsbetrieb wird das Ventil 40 in seine Sperrstellung verbracht, so dass kein Öl von der Verdrängereinheit 30 zum Steuerschieber 91 fließen kann. Der Steuerschieber 91 bleibt in Neutralstellung a und das Ventil 50 wird geöffnet. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 wird in Abhängigkeit von der Auslenkung des Gebers 70, der die Senkgeschwindigkeit vorgibt, auf einen bestimmten negativen Schwenkwinkel gestellt. Dadurch senkt sich die Ausrüstung mit der gewünschten Geschwindigkeit ab. Bei dem Absenkvorgang wird auf der Stangenseite des Zylinders 80 Öl benötigt, das über das Nachsaugventil 93 des Steuerblocks 90 aus dem Tank bereitgestellt wird. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 erzeugt ein Moment, das durch den Druck, der im Zylinderboden des Aktors 80 herrscht, und den eingestellten Schwenkwinkel der Verdrängereinheit 30 bestimmt wird. Durch dieses Moment wird das Antriebsaggregat 10 entlastet.For the recuperation operation, the
Sobald auf der Stangenseite Druck benötigt wird, um die Senkbewegung aufrecht zu erhalten, muss in den Modus "aktives senken" umgeschaltet werden. Hierzu wird das Ventil 40 in seine Durchflussstellung geschaltet, während das Ventil 50 in Sperrstellung geht. Öl kann nun von der Verdrängereinheit 30 zum Steuerschieber 91 fließen, der in der Stellung 91d steht. Der Steuerschieber 91 muss das Öl von den Pumpen 20, 30 zur Stangenseite des Hubzylinders 80 weiterleiten. Das Öl aus der Bodenseite muss über den Steuerschieber 91 zum Tank zurückfließen, das Ventil 50 bleibt gesperrt. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 agiert in diesem Betriebszustand als zweite Arbeitspumpe oder als Pumpe für weitere Verbraucher 100.As soon as pressure is required on the rod side to maintain the lowering movement, it is necessary to switch to the "active lowering" mode. For this purpose, the
Für den regulären Arbeitsbetrieb, d.h. zum Anheben des Auslegers wird das Ventil 40 geöffnet, Öl kann von der Verdrängereinheit 30 zum Steuerschieber 91 fließen. Das Ventil 50 bleibt geschlossen. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 ist in diesem Betriebszustand eine zweite Arbeitspumpe oder eine Pumpe für weitere Verbraucher 100.For regular work operation, i. for raising the boom, the
Die Ansteuerung des weiteren Verbrauchers in Form einer zweiten Kolbenzylindereinheit 100 ist ähnlich mittels eines zweiten baugleichen Steuerschiebers 92 sowie zusätzlichen Nachsaugeventilen verwirklicht.The control of the further consumer in the form of a second piston-

Alternativ zur Modifikation des Steuerschiebers 91 mit der zusätzlichen Schaltstellung 91c kann ein zusätzliches Bypassventil 130 stromabwärts am Wegeventil 50 angeordnet werden, wie dies in

Im Unterschied zur
Im regulären Arbeitsbetrieb des Verbrauchers 110 wird das Ventil 40 in die offene Stellung geschaltet, wodurch Öl von der Verdrängereinheit 30 zum Steuerschieber 90 fließen kann. Das Ventil 50 muss geschlossen sein. Die Ventile 95, 96 des Steuerblockes 90 geben in Abhängigkeit der Stellung des nun vorgesehenen Gebers 114 einen Öffnungsquerschnitt frei, wodurch die geforderte Geschwindigkeit und/oder Drehzahl des Motors 110 eingestellt werden kann. Zudem kann durch die Schaltposition der Ventile 95, 96 die Drehrichtung vorgegeben werden. Der Rotationsantrieb 110 kann beschleunigt bzw. die aktuelle Rotationsgeschwindigkeit gehalten werden.In normal operation of the
Im Brems- bzw. Rekuperationsbetrieb des Antriebes 110 wird das Ventil 40 in die geschlossene Stellung geschaltet, daher kann kein Öl von der Verdrängereinheit 30 zum Steuerblock 90 fließen. Das Ventil 50 wird geöffnet. Dreht der Motor 110 im Uhrzeigersinn, so muss das Ventil 95 in der unteren Regelposition sein. Das Ventil 96 ist in der geschlossenen Position. Das zusätzliche Wege-Ventil 112 befindet sich in diesem Fall auf der Ablaufseite des Motors 110 und muss in der offenen Schaltstellung sein, wodurch das ablaufende Öl über die Verdrängereinheit 30 in den Tank geleitet werden kann. Die Verdrängereinheit 30 wird auf einen bestimmten negativen Schwenkwinkel gestellt, der von der ECU 60 vorgegeben wird. Die ECU 60 errechnet den Wert des Schwenkwinkels aus der Antriebs-Drehzahl, die der Sensor 111 vorgibt, und der erfassten Stellung des Gebers 114.During braking or recuperation operation of the
Die Verdrängereinheit 30 erzeugt ein Moment, das sich aus dem erzeugten Hydraulikdruck des Antriebs 110 während des Bremsvorgangs und dem eingestellten Schwenkwinkel der Verdrängereinheit 30 ergibt, und gibt dieses an den Verbrennungsmotor 10 ab. Die weiteren Verbraucher 80, 100 können währenddessen von der Arbeitspumpe 20 mit Öl versorgt werden.The
Wird nur der Antrieb 110 angesteuert (z.B. Fahrantrieb bei einem Mobilbagger auf öffentlichen Straßen), dann kann eine Regelung ähnlich einem geschlossenen Kreis erfolgen. Die Arbeitspumpe 20 und eines der Ventile 95 oder 96 (je nach Fahrtrichtung) geben die Geschwindigkeit des Motors 110 in Abhängigkeit von dem Geber 114 vor. Je nach Fahrtrichtung muss immer eines der Ventile 112, 113, das auf der Ablaufseite des Motors 110 ist, in offener Stellung sein. So fließt das ablaufende Öl über das Ventil 120 und über die Verdrängereinheit 30 zurück.If only the
