Description

  The present invention relates to a pressure oil supply control device that controls supply of pressure oil to a hydraulic actuator, and a construction machine including the pressure oil supply control device.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in construction machines, a hydraulic cylinder that operates a work machine such as a body of a dump truck is driven, and a hydraulic actuator such as a hydraulic cylinder for steering control is hydraulically driven. In such a construction machine, a hydraulic pump is commonly used by a hydraulic circuit for driving a work machine and another hydraulic circuit for driving an actuator, and hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pump is used as an operating condition of the actuator. And it distributes to each hydraulic circuit according to the required characteristics.

  For example, when the control of the work implement is compared with the steering control, the control of the work implement requires that a relatively large amount of hydraulic oil be supplied only during the operation of the work implement. Although the amount required is smaller than that during the control, it is required to always supply a certain amount of hydraulic oil as a standby flow rate in order to ensure the initial response at the time of steering. In this way, since the required amount of hydraulic oil supplied varies from actuator to actuator, it is necessary to distribute the hydraulic oil supplied from the hydraulic pump in accordance with the operating conditions and required characteristics of the actuator.

  In addition, in order to drive a plurality of hydraulic actuators, it is necessary to increase the amount of hydraulic oil supplied from the hydraulic pump as compared to driving a single hydraulic actuator. Even if supplied, part of the hydraulic oil is returned to the hydraulic oil tank. That is, such hydraulic oil is not used for driving the actuator, and merely causes a hydraulic pressure loss. Due to the recent increase in interest in the environment, there is an increasing demand for reducing energy loss such as hydraulic loss.

In response to these requirements, a priority valve that preferentially distributes hydraulic oil to a specific hydraulic circuit, a load sensing valve that controls the discharge amount of a variable displacement hydraulic pump according to the differential pressure between the pilot pressures, There is known a configuration in which hydraulic oil is supplied to a plurality of hydraulic actuators using, for example (see Patent Document 1).
With this configuration, it is possible to distribute hydraulic oil according to the operating status and required characteristics of the actuator, and reduce hydraulic loss by setting the discharge amount of the hydraulic pump to an appropriate amount according to the status. is doing.

Features.

A construction machine according to a fourteenth aspect of the invention is a hydraulic pump, a first hydraulic actuator, a second hydraulic actuator sharing the first hydraulic actuator and the hydraulic pump, and any one of the first to thirteenth aspects. The pressure oil supply control device is provided.

  According to the pressure oil supply control device of the present invention, the pilot pressure switching valve is switched between the first pilot pressure and the third pilot pressure and led as the second pilot pressure, and the load sensing valve is switched to the first pilot pressure. The discharge amount of the hydraulic pump is controlled so that the difference between the first pilot pressure switched by the pilot pressure switching valve and the second pilot pressure becomes the first control differential pressure, and the priority valve controls the first pilot pressure and the third pilot pressure. The distribution amount of the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump is controlled so that the difference from the pilot pressure becomes a second control differential pressure larger than the first control differential pressure.

  Here, when the third pilot pressure is guided as the second pilot pressure by the pilot pressure switching valve, the differential pressure in the load sensing valve is equal to the differential pressure in the priority valve. Since the second control differential pressure of the priority valve is larger than the first control differential pressure of the load sensing valve, the differential pressure between the pilot pressures in the load sensing valve exceeds the first control differential pressure and the load sensing valve Even when the valve position is switched, the priority valve is not switched until the differential pressure between the pilot pressures exceeds the second control differential pressure.

  In other words, until the differential pressure between the pilot pressures of the priority valve exceeds the second control differential pressure, the hydraulic pump is in a state of discharging the minimum flow rate of hydraulic oil by the load sensing valve. Oil is drained through the hydraulic circuit of the second hydraulic actuator. Therefore, the priority valve functions as an unload valve. For this reason, it is not necessary to provide an unloading valve separately, and the arrangement space and weight of the whole pressure oil supply control device can be reduced.

In addition, since it is not necessary to provide an unload valve separately, the hydraulic circuit can be simplified. Therefore, the degree of freedom of piping layout can be improved.
Further, even when the first hydraulic actuator does not operate, the hydraulic pump is supplied with the above-mentioned minimum flow rate of hydraulic oil as a standby flow rate, so that the initial response of the first hydraulic actuator is ensured. Can do. In addition, since this standby flow rate is the lowest flow rate, the flow rate of the unloaded and drained hydraulic oil can be reduced, thereby reducing the hydraulic pressure loss.

  On the other hand, when the first pilot pressure is guided as the second pilot pressure by the pilot pressure switching valve, the pilot pressure of the load sensing valve becomes the first pilot pressure. The differential pressure between the pressures is zero. According to this, since the differential pressure of the load sensing valve is surely lower than the first control differential pressure, the discharge amount of the hydraulic pump is maximized. Therefore, the priority valve can supply the hydraulic oil necessary for driving the first hydraulic actuator.

  Moreover, according to this invention, the construction machine which can show | play the effect of this invention mentioned above can be obtained easily.

If the pressure is less than 23 set pressure (described as first control differential pressure), the discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump 21 is maintained at the maximum flow rate. The set pressure of the load sensing valve 23 is determined based on the required flow rate of the steering control unit 3.

And an electromagnetic detector 44, an angle detector 45, and a body operation lever 46.
The body 41 is a loading platform for loading earth and sand and the like, and is supported on a body frame (not shown) of the dump truck 1 so as to be raised and lowered. The body 41 and the vehicle body frame are connected by a hoist cylinder 42, and both end portions of the hoist cylinder 42 are rotatably supported by the body 41 and the vehicle body frame, respectively. On the hydraulic circuit to the hoist cylinder 42, an open center type hoist valve 43 is provided, and the body control electromagnetic valve 44 switches the valve position to the lowering, floating, holding and raising of the body 41. By switching the valve position of the hoist valve 43, the hoist cylinder 42 is extended and retracted, and the body 41 moves up and down with respect to the vehicle body frame. At this time, an angle detector 45 such as a potentiometer provided in the support shaft P portion detects the rotation angle of the body 41 around the support shaft P and outputs it to the controller 7. The controller 7 generates and outputs a control command to the body control electromagnetic valve 44 based on the rotation angle of the body 41 and the input state of the body operation lever 46.

  The priority valve 5 preferentially distributes hydraulic oil supplied from the pump supply amount control unit 2 to the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 to the steering control unit 3. Specifically, the priority valve 5 has two pilot lines 5a and 5b. The biasing force of the spring 51 that biases the priority valve 5 and the differential pressure ΔP2 between the pilots of the pilot lines 5a and 5b Accordingly, the valve position is switched. Among these, the discharge pressure (first pilot pressure) PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is guided to one pilot line 5 a of the priority valve 5, and the steering control unit is connected to the other pilot line 5 b via the pilot line 8. 3 (third pilot pressure) PS is derived.

  Here, the priority valve 5 is urged by a spring 51 in a direction in which hydraulic oil from the pump supply amount control unit 2 is supplied to the steering control unit 3, and the differential pressure ΔP <b> 2 is applied to the urging force of the spring 51. If the pressure is equal to or lower than the corresponding pressure (hereinafter referred to as the set pressure (second control differential pressure) of the priority valve 5), the priority valve 5 supplies hydraulic oil from the pump supply amount control unit 2 only to the steering control unit 3. The supply valve position is maintained.

  The load sensing system according to this embodiment uses a so-called dynamic signal type, and the pilot line 5b and the pilot line 8 are connected to the priority valve 5 and the steering valve 32 connected to the discharge side of the hydraulic pump 21. Is connected to a hydraulic line 9 connecting the two through a pilot line 10, and a small-diameter throttle 52 is provided on the pilot line 10. That is, the pilot line 5 b communicates with the discharge side of the hydraulic pump 21 without passing through the steering valve 32.

  The pilot pressure switching valve 6 is a position switching valve for switching the discharge amount of the hydraulic pump 21 to the maximum flow rate, and the valve position is switched according to a control command from the controller 7. Specifically, the pilot pressure switching valve 6 switches the pilot pressure PLS2 of the load sensing valve 23 between the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 and the pressure PS guided from the steering control unit 3 according to the control command of the controller 7. It is configured to be. That is, when the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is on, that is, when the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is energized, the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is guided to the pilot line 23b of the load sensing valve 23, and the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is off. In the state, the pressure PS from the steering control unit 3 is guided to the pilot line 23b.

The controller 7 is configured as a control means for performing flow rate control of the pump supply amount control unit 2, the steering control unit 3, and the work machine drive control unit 4, and includes a rotation angle signal of the body 41 from the angle detector 45 and a body operation lever. Based on the operation input signal from 46, control commands for the pilot pressure switching valve 6 and the body control electromagnetic valve 44 are generated and output. Therefore, the angle detector 45 and the body operation lever 46 are electrically connected to the input side of the controller 7, and the pilot pressure switching valve 6 and the body control electromagnetic valve 44 are electrically connected to the output side of the controller 7, respectively. .
In the dump truck 1 configured as described above, the pressure oil supply control device 100 includes the load sensing valve 23, the priority valve 5, the pilot pressure switching valve 6, and the controller 7.

[1-2] Control Structure of Controller 7 Next, a control structure of pressure oil supply by the controller 7 will be described with reference to FIG.
The controller 7 includes an operation input state determination unit 71, a work implement operation state determination unit 72, a storage unit 73, and a control command generation unit 74.
The operation input state determination unit 71 determines the input state of the body operation lever 46 based on the operation input signal from the body operation lever 46. That is, the operation input state determination unit 71 determines whether the input state of the body operation lever 46 is in the state where the body 41 is raised, lowered, floated, or held.
The work machine operation state determination unit 72 is a unit that determines the operation state of the work machine. In the present embodiment, the body 41 is in a sitting state or a standing state based on a rotation angle signal of the body 41. Determine whether.

That is, as shown in Table 1, the storage means 73 stores a switching map that defines the switching state of the pilot pressure switching valve 6 with respect to the operating state of the body 41 and the input state of the body operating lever 46.

  The control command generation unit 74 controls the pilot pressure switching valve 6 based on the determination result of the operation input state determination unit 71, the determination result of the work implement operation state determination unit 72, and the switching map stored in the storage unit 73. Generate and output commands. Further, the control command generating means 74 controls the body control electromagnetic valve 44 so that the valve position of the hoist valve 43 becomes the position of the input state of the body operating lever 46 determined by the operation input state determining means 71. Generate and output.

[1-3] Operation of Pressure Oil Supply Control Device 100 Next, the operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 3, and 4.
[1-3-1] When neither the steering control unit 3 nor the work machine drive control unit 4 operates Here, when the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 do not operate, that is, the operator performs a steering operation. The operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 when the position of the body operation lever 46 is in the floating or holding input state will be described.

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 1, the valve position of the steering valve 32 is a neutral position, and the pilot line 5 b of the priority valve 5 connects the hydraulic pump 21 and the steering valve 32 through a small diameter throttle 52. It communicates with the connecting hydraulic line. The pilot line 5b communicates with the hydraulic oil tank 1A via the throttle 11 and the throttle 322 of the steering valve 32.

  The pilot pressure switching valve 6 is in a valve position for connecting the pilot line 5b of the priority valve 5 and the pilot line 23b of the load sensing valve 23. The pilot line 23b is connected to the pilot line 5b of the priority valve 5. It is the same pressure. Therefore, the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures of the load sensing valve 23 is a differential pressure between the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 guided to the pilot line 23a on the pump discharge side and the pressure of the pilot line 5b of the priority valve 5. .

  Here, when the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures of the load sensing valve 23 is equal to or lower than the set pressure of the load sensing valve 23, the load sensing valve 23 is positioned at a valve position connecting the chamber 222 and the hydraulic oil tank 1A. Become. In this case, since the hydraulic oil in the chamber 222 is returned to the hydraulic oil tank 1A, the piston 221 stays at a position where the discharge amount of the hydraulic pump 21 is maximized, and the hydraulic pump 21 tries to supply the hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate. And

  On the other hand, since the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is guided to the pilot line 5a of the priority valve 5 similarly to the load sensing valve 23, the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 and the pilot line 5b are connected to the priority valve 5. The pressure difference acts as a differential pressure ΔP1. Here, since the set pressure of the priority valve 5 is set higher than the set pressure of the load sensing valve 23, the priority valve 5 is not switched in the state where the load sensing valve 23 is not switched. The hydraulic oil is supplied only to the steering control unit 3 side.

  Thereafter, when the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 exceeds the set pressure of the load sensing valve 23 by the hydraulic pump 21 trying to supply the hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate, the load sensing valve 23 is connected to the chamber 222 and the hydraulic pump 21. Switch to the valve position connecting the discharge side of Then, since the hydraulic oil flows from the hydraulic pump 21 into the chamber 222, the piston 221 moves in a direction that makes the discharge amount of the hydraulic pump 21 the minimum flow rate. As a result, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 3, when the differential pressure ΔP1 acting on the load sensing valve 23 reaches the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23, the hydraulic oil supply flow rate from the hydraulic pump 21 is the maximum flow rate. It will change from the minimum flow rate. 3 indicates the flow characteristic of the load sensing valve 23, and the broken line in FIG. 3 indicates the flow characteristic of the priority valve 5.

  Returning to FIG. 1, since the set pressure of the priority valve 5 is set higher than the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23, the load sensing valve 23 is not immediately switched at this stage, and the priority valve 5 is controlled by the steering control. Continue supplying hydraulic oil only to the part 3 side.

  Since hydraulic oil continues to be supplied to the steering controller 3 side after that, the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 exceeds the set pressure of the priority valve 5 set higher than the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23, The priority valve 5 switches to a valve position for supplying hydraulic oil to both the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4. When the work machine drive control unit 4 is not operating, the hoist valve 43 is in the floating or holding valve position, so that the hydraulic oil that has passed through the priority valve 5 passes through the hoist valve 43 and is hydraulic oil. Returned to tank 1A.

  Since the differential pressure ΔP2 of the priority valve 5 decreases by the amount of hydraulic oil returned to the hydraulic oil tank 1A through the hoist valve 43, the priority valve 5 is a valve position for supplying hydraulic oil only to the steering control unit 3 Switch to once. However, since hydraulic oil continues to be supplied from the hydraulic pump 21, the differential pressure ΔP <b> 2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 immediately exceeds the set pressure, and the priority valve 5 is connected to the steering controller 3 and the work machine drive controller 4. Switches to a valve position that supplies hydraulic oil to both. Since the priority valve 5 repeatedly switches the position in such a minute unit, as shown in FIG. 3, the differential pressure ΔP2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 remains the set pressure P2 of the priority valve 5, and the priority valve 5 The flow rate of hydraulic fluid through 5 is kept at a minimum flow rate. That is, the priority valve 5 functions as an unload valve that drains the minimum flow rate when neither the steering control unit 3 nor the work implement drive control unit 4 operates.

  Here, it is necessary to maintain a standby state for ensuring responsiveness at the time of steering in order to keep supplying the hydraulic oil into the circuit by the unload function even though the hydraulic oil does not flow into the steering control unit 3. Because there is. That is, at the time of sudden steering, hydraulic oil cannot be supplied by the rising response of the flow rate of the hydraulic pump 21, so that the steering control unit 3 is required at least even when the steering control unit 3 is not operating. It is necessary to continue supplying the flow rate to be used as the standby flow rate.

  As described above, hydraulic oil must be continuously supplied even when neither the steering control unit 3 nor the work machine drive control unit 4 operates. However, since the hydraulic oil is supplied from the hydraulic pump 21 at the minimum flow rate, There is no loss of pressure oil. Further, by making the set pressure of the priority valve 5 as small as possible within a range higher than the set pressure of the load sensing valve 23, the hydraulic pressure loss can be effectively reduced.

[1-3-2] When the steering control unit 3 alone is operated Here, when only the steering control unit 3 is operating independently, that is, the operator is performing the steering operation, the position of the body operation lever 46 is floating or The operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 when the body 41 is in the holding input state and is seated will be described.
In this case, in FIG. 1, the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is in a valve position for connecting the pilot line 5 b to the priority valve 5 and the pilot line 23 b of the load sensing valve 23.

  For example, when the steering operation is performed so that the steering cylinder 31 moves in the left direction in FIG. 1, the steering valve 32 is switched to the valve position on the left side in the drawing. The hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 flows into the steering valve 32, passes through the steering valve 32, and flows into the metering rotor 33. The hydraulic oil that has passed through the metering rotor 33 flows again into the steering cylinder 31 through the steering valve 32. As a result, the steering cylinder 31 moves to the left in FIG. 1, and the hydraulic oil that has flowed out of the steering cylinder 31 passes through the steering valve 32 and is returned to the hydraulic oil tank 1A.

  Since the steering valve 32 is provided with the variable throttle 321, the downstream pressure of the hydraulic oil throttle 321 flowing from the hydraulic pump 21 to the metering rotor 33 is guided to the pilot line 5 b of the priority valve 5. That is, the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 in the steering control unit 3 is guided to the pilot line 5b. The hydraulic oil that has been throttled by the variable throttle 321 and led to the pilot line 5 b of the priority valve 5 passes through the pilot pressure switching valve 6 and is led to the pilot line 23 b of the load sensing valve 23. Therefore, the load pressure of the steering control unit 3 is guided to the pilot line 23 b of the load sensing valve 23. As a result, the priority valve 5 is instantaneously switched to a valve position for supplying hydraulic oil only to the steering control unit 3, and the lowest unload flow rate during non-operation is supplied to the steering control unit 3 side.

However, since the throttle 321 is initially wide open, the differential pressure ΔP1 of the load sensing valve 23, that is, the differential pressure between the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 and the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 in the steering control unit 3 is It becomes smaller than the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23. In this case, the load sensing valve 23 is in a valve position connecting the chamber 222 and the hydraulic oil tank 1A, and the hydraulic pump 21 tries to supply the hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate.
Here, the throttle amount of the variable throttle 321 is controlled such that the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures of the load sensing valve 23 becomes the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23. That is, since the flow rate of the hydraulic oil to be supplied to the steering cylinder 31 changes according to the rotational speed of the steering handle 34, the throttle amount of the variable throttle 321 is controlled according to the rotational speed of the steering handle 34.

  That is, when the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures of the load sensing valve 23 becomes smaller and falls below the set pressure P1, the variable throttle is set so that the differential pressure ΔP1 becomes the value of the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23. The aperture amount 321 is controlled. Accordingly, since the differential pressure ΔP1 of the load sensing valve 23 exceeds the set pressure P1, the load sensing valve 23 is switched to a valve position connecting the chamber 222 and the discharge side of the hydraulic pump 21, and the hydraulic pump 21 is operated with hydraulic oil. At a minimum flow rate. Thereafter, the load sensing valve 23 repeats switching of the valve position in minute units in accordance with the change in the throttle amount of the variable throttle 321, and the discharge flow rate from the hydraulic pump 21 is the load sensing as shown by the arrow in FIG. Only the hydraulic oil necessary for the operation of the steering control unit 3 is supplied by balancing the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures of the valve 23 with the set pressure P1 of the load sensing valve 23 being balanced.

  In the priority valve 5, similarly to the load sensing valve 23, the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 and the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 in the steering control unit 3 are led to the pilot lines 5 a and 5 b. The pressure difference ΔP2 between the pilot pressures does not exceed the set pressure P2 of the priority valve 5. For this reason, the valve position of the priority valve 5 is not switched, and the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 is supplied only to the steering control unit 3.

  As described above, when the steering control unit 3 alone is operated, the passage of the priority valve 5 toward the work machine drive control unit 4 is closed, and hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 is supplied only to the steering control unit 3. Further, the discharge amount of the hydraulic pump 21 is adjusted to a flow rate necessary for driving the steering cylinder 31.

  In addition, even if the steering handle 34 is suddenly operated from a state where neither the steering control unit 3 nor the work machine drive control unit 4 operates, the priority valve 5 is switched instantaneously, so that the surplus previously secured as the unload flow rate is obtained. The flow rate can be supplied instantaneously. In general, supply of hydraulic oil may not be able to catch up with the speed at which the hydraulic pump 21 raises the flow rate during sudden steering. By supplying this excess flow rate first, the steering handle 34 may be caught. The feeling of strangeness can be eliminated.

[1-3-3] When the work machine drive control unit 4 alone is operated Here, when only the work machine drive control unit 4 is operating alone, that is, the operator is not performing the steering operation, and the body operation lever 46 The operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 when the position is in the input state of raising or lowering will be described.
In order to simplify the description, the operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 when the position of the body operation lever 46 is in the raising input state will be described.

  In this case, the controller 7 outputs a control command to the pilot pressure switching valve 6 according to the switching map of Table 1 and energizes the solenoid of the pilot pressure switching valve 6. Thereby, in FIG. 1, the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is switched to a valve position connecting the pilot lines 23a, 23b of the load sensing valve 23, and the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is supplied to both pilot lines 23a, 23b. Led. As a result, the pilot pressures of both pilot lines 23a and 23b become the same, and the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures of the load sensing valve 23 becomes zero. Therefore, the differential pressure ΔP1 of the load sensing valve 23 is lower than the set pressure P1, and the load sensing valve 23 maintains a valve position that connects the chamber 222 and the hydraulic oil tank 1A. For this reason, the hydraulic pump 21 always supplies hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate as shown by the solid line in FIG.

  Returning to FIG. 1, the steering valve 32 is in a neutral position because the steering control unit 3 is not operating, and the steering control unit 3 includes neither the steering control unit 3 nor the work machine drive control unit 4 operating. Similarly, no load pressure is generated. For this reason, the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 in the steering controller 3 does not act on the pilot line 5b of the priority valve 5, and the differential pressure ΔP2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 becomes the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21. . In this case, as described above, the hydraulic pump 21 always supplies hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate, so that the differential pressure ΔP2 of the priority valve 5 exceeds the set pressure P2. As a result, the priority valve 5 switches to a valve position for supplying hydraulic oil to both the steering control unit 3 side and the work machine drive control unit 4 side.

  On the other hand, the controller 7 outputs a control command to the body control electromagnetic valve 44 and switches the valve position of the hoist valve 43 to the raised position of the body 41. Accordingly, the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 flows into the hoist cylinder 42 through the hoist valve 43, so that the hoist cylinder 42 moves in the upper right direction in FIG. The hydraulic oil that has flowed out of the hoist cylinder 42 passes through the hoist valve 43 and is returned to the hydraulic oil tank 1A.

As described above, when the work implement drive control unit 4 alone is operated, the passage of the priority valve 5 to the work implement drive control unit 4 side is opened, and the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 is supplied to the work implement drive control unit 4. Is done. The hydraulic pump 21 supplies hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate by switching the valve position of the pilot pressure switching valve 6.
Here, the work machine such as the body 41 of the dump truck 1 has a low operation frequency and is normally operated at a high speed even during operation. Therefore, the supply amount of the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 is performed at the maximum flow rate. Even if it is broken, there is almost no hydraulic loss.

[1-3-4] When both the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 operate Here, when both the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 operate, that is, the operator performs the steering operation. The operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 when the body operation lever 46 is in the input state of raising or lowering and the body 41 is not seated will be described.
In order to simplify the description, the operation of the pressure oil supply control device 100 when the steering operation is performed during the standing operation of the body 41 will be described.

  In this case, since the body 41 is standing up, the pilot pressure switching valve 6 in FIG. 1 is switched to the valve position connecting the pilot lines 23a and 23b of the load sensing valve 23, and both pilots The discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is guided to the lines 23a and 23b. Thereby, the hydraulic pump 21 always supplies hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate. Further, as described above, the priority valve 5 is switched to a valve position for supplying hydraulic oil to both the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4.

  In this state, when the steering operation is performed so that the steering cylinder 31 moves leftward in FIG. 1, the steering valve 32 is switched to the valve position on the left side in the drawing, and the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 is changed to the pilot of the priority valve 5. Guided to line 5b. As a result, the pressure difference ΔP2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 becomes smaller and lower than the set pressure P2, so that the priority valve 5 switches to a valve position for supplying hydraulic oil only to the steering control unit 3.

  However, since hydraulic oil continues to be supplied from the hydraulic pump 21, the differential pressure ΔP2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 exceeds the set pressure P2, and the valve position of the priority valve 5 depends on the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control. It switches to the position which supplies hydraulic fluid to both of the parts 4. Since the priority valve 5 repeatedly switches the position in such a minute unit, the differential pressure ΔP2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 becomes the set pressure P2 of the priority valve 5 as indicated by an arrow in FIG. The hydraulic oil is distributed to the steering controller 3 and the work machine drive controller 4. That is, the priority valve 5 preferentially distributes the maximum flow amount of hydraulic oil supplied from the hydraulic pump 21 to the steering control unit 3 while the differential pressure ΔP2 between the pilot pressures of the priority valve 5 is maintained at the set pressure P2. The remainder is distributed to the work machine drive control unit 4.

  Thus, when both the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 operate, the hydraulic pump 21 always discharges hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate. Further, the hydraulic oil supplied from the hydraulic pump 21 is preferentially distributed to the steering control unit 3 by the priority valve 5. Accordingly, the priority valve 5 can preferentially distribute the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 21 to the steering control unit 3 that is required to always supply the hydraulic oil in order to ensure the initial response at the time of steering. At the same time, it is possible to prevent unnecessary working oil from being supplied to the work machine drive control unit 4 that does not need to always supply working oil. For this reason, a hydraulic loss can be reduced more effectively.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described based on FIG.
In the first embodiment described above, the pressure oil supply control device 100 guides the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 to both pilot lines 23 a and 23 b of the load sensing valve 23 by switching the valve position of the pilot pressure switching valve 6. Was configured.
In contrast, in the second embodiment shown in FIG. 5, the pressure oil supply control device 100 switches the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 to both pilot lines 23 a and 23 b of the load sensing valve 23 by switching the pilot pressure switching valve 6. It is different in that it is configured to guide.

  Specifically, in the pressure oil supply control device 100 of the present embodiment, the pilot line 8 through which the pressure (first pilot pressure) PS from the steering control unit 3 is guided, the pilot line 5b of the priority valve 5, and the load sensing valve 23 pilot lines 23 b are provided in communication with each other without using the pilot pressure switching valve 6. The pilot line 23a is connected to the pilot line 5a and the pilot line 23b via the pilot pressure switching valve 6 so as to be switchable. The pilot pressure switching valve 6 is connected to the pilot pressure (second second pressure) of the load sensing valve 23. The pilot pressure (PLS1) is configured to be switchable between the discharge pressure (third pilot pressure) PP of the hydraulic pump 21 and the pressure PS introduced from the steering control unit 3.

  As described above, the pressure oil supply control device 100 includes the pilot pressure switching valve 6 having a configuration different from that in the first embodiment and the arrangement in the circuit. However, the discharge of the hydraulic pump 21 is performed when the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is off. The pressure PP is guided to the pilot line 23a, the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 is guided to the pilot line 23b, and the same pilot pressure is guided to both the pilot lines 23a and 23b in the ON state, as in the first embodiment. To work. That is, when the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is switched on, the load pressure of the steering cylinder 31 is guided to both pilot lines 23a and 23b of the load sensing valve 23, and the differential pressure ΔP1 between the pilot pressures sets the set pressure P1. The hydraulic pump 21 supplies hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate. And the pressure oil supply control apparatus 100 is comprised similarly to 1st Embodiment except the structure of the pilot pressure switching valve 6, and arrangement | positioning in a circuit.

  Therefore, the pressure oil supply control device 100 according to the present embodiment can appropriately distribute the hydraulic oil according to the operation status of the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 as in the first embodiment, and can reduce the hydraulic loss. Can be reduced. Moreover, since the pilot pressure switching valve 6 having a different configuration and arrangement from the first embodiment can be used, the piping layout according to the pilot pressure switching valve 6 can be obtained, and the degree of freedom of the piping layout can be improved. Can do.

[Modification of Embodiment]
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and modifications, improvements, and the like within the scope that can achieve the object of the present invention are included in the present invention.
In each of the above embodiments, the hydraulic oil supply control is performed between the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the pressure when the hydraulic pump 21 is shared among a plurality of hydraulic actuators. Any device that performs oil supply control corresponds to the present invention.

  In each of the above embodiments, a dynamic signal type is used as the load sensing system. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can also be applied to a general static signal type load sensing system. That is, the steering valve and the priority valve may be replaced with those of the type shown in FIG. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6, the pilot line and the throttle for connecting the pilot line 5b and the pilot line 8 and the hydraulic line 9 between the priority valve 5 and the steering valve 32A are not provided. The fifth pilot line 5b communicates with the pilot line 8 through the small diameter throttle 323 and the throttle 11 provided in the steering valve 32A, and communicates with the hydraulic oil tank 1A through the throttle 11 and the throttle 322. To do. Even when the present invention is applied to such a static signal type load sensing system, the same effect as in the above embodiment can be obtained.

In each of the embodiments described above, the controller 7 generates and outputs a control command for the pilot pressure switching valve 6 according to the switching map of Table 1, but is not limited to this. For example, the switching shown in Tables 2 and 3 is performed. You may produce | generate and output a control command using a map.
That is, when switching the pilot pressure switching valve 6 only when raising the body 41, the switching map of Table 2 can be used. Regardless of whether the body 41 is in the raised or lowered state, the flow rate of the hydraulic pump 21 is maximized when the body 41 is in operation, and the body 41 that is in the traveling state of the dump truck 1 is in a floating or held state. When the flow rate of the pump 21 is minimized, the switching map shown in Table 3 can be used.

  In each of the embodiments described above, the determination as to whether or not the body 41 is in the sitting position is performed based on the rotation angle signal of the body 41 output from the angle detector 45, but is not limited thereto. For example, a stroke meter that detects the stroke of the hoist cylinder 42 is provided in the hoist cylinder 42, and based on an output signal from the stroke meter, it is determined whether or not the body 41 is in the seating position, an ON / OFF switch, etc. The seat sensor may be provided on the vehicle body frame, and based on the output signal from the seat sensor, it may be determined whether the body 41 is in the seat position. Also. Instead of determining whether or not the body 41 is at the seating position, the output signal may be switched at an intermediate position of the body 41.

  In each of the above embodiments, the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is guided to the pilot line 23b of the load sensing valve 23 when the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is on, and the pressure PS from the steering control unit 3 when it is off. Is led to the pilot line 23b, but is not limited to this, and may be reversed from the above embodiment. That is, the pressure PS from the steering control unit 3 is guided to the pilot line 23b when the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is on, and the discharge pressure PP of the hydraulic pump 21 is guided to the pilot line 23b when it is off. Good. In this case, even if the solenoid of the pilot pressure switching valve 6 is disconnected, the hydraulic oil at the maximum flow rate is always supplied and the hydraulic loss increases, but the operation of the steering control unit 3 and the work machine drive control unit 4 is impaired. This eliminates the need for redundancy in the event of a failure.

  The present invention can be used for pressure oil supply control of a plurality of hydraulic actuators sharing a hydraulic pump, in addition to being used for pressure oil supply control of a construction machine.
