Definitions
- Hydrostatic drive systems for mobile work machines are known in which a hydraulic pump and one or more hydraulic motors are connected in a closed hydraulic circuit to form a hydrostatic transmission.
- the hydraulic pump is driven by an internal combustion engine - e.g. a diesel engine - and the hydraulic motors ultimately drive the mobile work machine - e.g. via a respective wheel.
- the hydraulic pump of such travel drives is often adjustable in its delivery volume. This means that, for example, when the combustion engine speed is constant, the volume flow delivered by the hydraulic pump can be changed in a closed circuit and thus the output speed of the hydraulic motors or wheels - i.e. the driving speed of the mobile work machine - can be adjusted. It is also known that the hydraulic motor(s) can also be adjusted in their displacement volume.
- the hydrostatic transmission is equipped with a mechanical gearbox coupled in series. Automation makes it possible for the gear stages of the gearbox of such transmission arrangements to be switched even while driving.
- the torque between the hydraulic motor of the hydrostatic transmission and the transmission input of the manual transmission is reduced to zero. This is done by reducing the expulsion volume of the hydraulic motor to zero ("zero oscillation"). When the expulsion volume reaches zero, the old transmission stage is disengaged and the new transmission stage is engaged by mechanical synchronization.
- the previous solutions only take into account a time-controlled adjustment of the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor without taking into account the physical state variables (e.g. pressure) or the system parameters (e.g. gear ratio). Disadvantages of the previous solutions include an extensive parameter space, which is required to map the necessary performance, limited performance due to worst case parameterization (slow ramps to avoid high pressures) and this results in very long transition phases until the neutral state.
- the known solutions have limited robustness due to the state independence, as the fixed parameterization is only partially robust.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a method for switching with which the above-mentioned problems can be overcome.
- Figure 1 shows a schematic circuit diagram of a travel drive
- Figure 2 shows a schematic circuit diagram of a hydraulic pump.
- a drive for example that of a mobile work machine, has a transmission arrangement 3 with a preferably designed as a diesel engine Drive engine 2, a hydrostatic transmission 4 and preferably a two-stage manual transmission 6 in the exemplary embodiment.
- a hydrostatic transmission 4 is present.
- the hydrostatic transmission 4 has a first hydraulic machine 8 designed as an axial piston pump in a swash plate design, which is fluidically connected in a closed hydraulic circuit via two working lines 10, 12 to a second hydraulic machine 14 designed as an axial piston motor in a bent axis design.
- the first hydraulic machine 8 is coupled to the drive machine 2 via a drive shaft 16.
- a drive shaft 18 of the second hydraulic machine 14 is coupled to an input shaft 20 of the manual transmission 6.
- An output shaft 22 of the manual transmission 6 is coupled to a differential 24 of a two-wheel axle 26 of the travel drive 1.
- Both hydraulic machines 8, 14 each have an adjustable displacement volume.
- the first hydraulic machine 8 is designed in such a way that it can work in all four quadrants, in both torque directions, both as a hydraulic pump and as a hydraulic motor.
- the transmission arrangement 3 has a control device 28, in particular for controlling the torque of the drive shaft 18.
- a shift request device 30, a gear selection device 32, a direction selection device 34, an accelerator pedal 36, a creeper gear selection device 38, a brake pedal 40 and an automatic selection device 42 are signal-connected to the control device 28. All of the devices 30 to 42 mentioned are signal-connected via a CAN bus 44 on the one hand to the control device 28 and on the other hand at least to the drive machine 2.
- the latter has a first switching position 66a in which the first pressure chamber 58 is connected to a Pressure medium line 68 and the second pressure chamber 60 is connected to a tank line 70.
- a second switching position 66b the second pressure medium chamber 60 is connected to the pressure medium line 68 and the first pressure medium chamber 58 is connected to the tank line 70.
- the first switching position 66a causes the piston 54 to be displaced in such a way that the first gear stage 46 is engaged via the claw clutch 50
- the second switching position 66b causes the second gear stage 48 to be engaged via the piston 54 and the claw clutch 50.
- the hydrostatic transmission 4 has a variable, continuously adjustable gear ratio range.
- the manual transmission 6 connected downstream serves to cover a required speed range of the travel drive 1.
- the transmission arrangement 3 is designed in such a way that the manual transmission 6 can be switched during ferry operation.
- the switching or changing of the gear stages 46, 48 can be controlled automatically via the control device 28.
- the gear arrangement 3 has a speed sensor 76, via which the speed of the output shaft 22 can be detected.
- it has a speed sensor 78 for detecting the speed of the input shaft 18.
- the first gear stage 46 has a gear 80 which is firmly coupled to the input shaft and which is in permanent engagement with an idler gear 82 which can be coupled to the output shaft 22 via the claw clutch 50.
- the second gear stage 48 has a gear 84 which is firmly coupled to the input shaft 18 and an idler gear 86 which is permanently engaged therewith and can be coupled to the output shaft 22 via the claw clutch 50.
- the adjustment position (displacement volume) of the adjustment device 90 can be corrected so that a certain displacement volume can be reliably achieved, regardless of the load pressure.
- the first hydraulic machine 8 is a load-sensitive pump, whereby in a load-sensitive hydraulic machine the adjustment of the displacement volume is dependent on the pressure in the first and/or second working line.
- an adjusting device 88 of the first hydraulic machine 8 has a pressure reducing valve 106.
- This can be connected via a 4/3-way switching valve 96 to a pressure medium chamber of an actuating cylinder 98, the piston 100 of which is coupled to a pivoting cradle of the first hydraulic machine 8 for adjusting its first displacement volume.
- the pressure reducing valve 106 is electromagnetically, electrically directly controlled, actuated and connected to the control device 28 according to Figure 1 via a signal line 44a.
- the control pressure supplied from connection G is available via the control pressure line 102 at a control pressure inlet 104 of the pressure reducing valve 106.
- the input shaft 20, i.e. the drive shaft 18 should be controlled torque-free. This is made possible by controlling the displacement volume of the first and second hydraulic machines 8, 14. Once the drive shaft 18 is torque-free, the gear stage change can take place.
- the aim of this invention is indeed to create a method to make the drive shaft torque-free.
- a travel speed gradient of the working machine and/or a load of the working machine or an operating variable with which the load can be determined is recorded.
- This recording can of course also be carried out continuously, so that when the command is received this variable is already known to the control device.
- the operating variable can be a pressure in the first and/or in the second working line 10, 12, the load being determined by the recorded pressure.
- the command can be generated either manually by the shift request device 30 or automatically by the control device 28.
- the control device 28 can detect that a change of gear is required to achieve the driving request detected by the accelerator pedal 36.
- the control device can detect that no power is needed from the drive engine, so that power transmission should be stopped to save energy. It should be noted that in this particular application, no manual transmission is needed in the travel drive (i.e., this invention can also be used with a drive without a manual transmission).
- a desired behavior of a displacement volume change of the first and second hydraulic machines 8, 14 is determined during the deactivation of the power transmission on the basis of the detected driving speed gradient, load or operating variable.
- the reason is that the higher the load or the driving speed gradients, the faster the power deactivation should take place (i.e. the higher the adjustment speed of the two hydraulic machines will be) so that the power of the drive machine can be fed back to the output. Conversely, if it is noticed that the gradients are low, the deactivation can be carried out much more slowly, making the deactivation more comfortable.
- the desired behavior is determined on the basis of a function, wherein this function determines a displacement volume change gradient for the first hydraulic machine 8 and for the second hydraulic machine 14 on the basis of the detected travel speed gradient, load or operating variable, wherein the higher the detected travel speed gradient and/or the load, the greater the displacement volume change gradient will be.
- a deactivation of the power transmission is carried out on the basis of the determined desired behavior by changing the displacement volumes of the first and the second hydraulic machine, whereby in this step the two hydraulic machines are pivoted towards zero displacement volume.
- the pressure in the first and/or second working line 10, 12 is detected, wherein, in the event that the detected pressure exceeds a first value or falls below a second value, the desired behavior of the second hydraulic machine 14 and/or the first hydraulic machine 8 is adjusted such that the pressure in the first and/or second working line 10, 12 falls below the first value again or exceeds the second value again.
- the reason for this is that dynamic differences between the motor (second hydraulic machine) and pump (first hydraulic machine) can lead to a pressure increase in the hydrostatic circuit.
- the adjustment speed of at least one of the two hydraulic machines is reduced in proportion to the pressure increase. If, for example, the pressure exceeds the first value, the adjustment of the motor is slowed down, as otherwise even higher pressures will arise in the working lines. In addition, if the adjustment speed of the second hydraulic machine is too slow, the pressure in the working lines will drop massively.
- the second value ensures that there is sufficient adjustment pressure to supply the second hydraulic machine 14, as this does not have an extra pump to deliver the adjustment pressure.
- the rotational speed of the drive machine 2 is kept constant throughout the deactivation (and preferably also during the reactivation).
- a target value for the displacement volume of the second hydraulic machine 14 is determined, which is determined taking into account the displacement volume of the second hydraulic machine 14 before the deactivation of the power transmission and the gear ratio of the manual transmission 6.
- a first and a second intermediate value are determined, whereby the two values are determined using two different functions. These functions can depend on whether the gear ratio of the manual transmission is being changed from a smaller to a larger one or vice versa.
- VgL 2 describes a first function for the first intermediate value, in which a displacement volume for the second hydraulic machine can be determined at a low load
- VgH 2 describes a second function for the second intermediate value, in which a displacement volume for the second hydraulic machine can be determined at a higher load can
- Vg describes a displacement volume of the second hydraulic machine before switching
- i A and i N describe the gear ratio before and after switching respectively.
- VgL Vg
- VgH describes a second function for the second intermediate value, at which a displacement volume for the second hydraulic machine can be determined at a higher load
- Vg describes a displacement volume of the second hydraulic machine before switching
- i A and i N each describe the gear ratio before and after switching.
- the two intermediate values determined with these functions are then used to determine the target value for the displacement volume of the second hydraulic machine.
- an interpolation is carried out between the first and the second intermediate value, this interpolation being carried out on the basis of the detected travel speed gradient and/or the detected load. The higher the load, the more relevant the second intermediate value will be and conversely the lower the load, the more relevant the first intermediate value will be.
- the adjustment speed of the first hydraulic machine is reduced in proportion to a pressure drop, similar to the deactivation phase. This prevents the hydraulic motor (second hydraulic machine) from taking in more oil volume than the pump (first hydraulic machine) can deliver due to its dynamic limitation.
