- processing when the brake devices 5a and 5b are switched to the braking state before the delay time TD elapses from the time t2 will be described.
- the processing up to time t2 is the same as described above. Thereby, the time ⁇ T1 from the time t1 to the time t2 is stored in the storage unit 73 as the braking time TB. Further, steps S1, S2, S3, S5, and S14 are repeated until the time ta is reached from the time t2, and the brake demand valve 42 is kept off. For this reason, the amount of lubricating oil to the brake devices 5a and 5b is maintained at the first supply amount.
- step S1 When the brake devices 5a and 5b are switched from the released state to the braked state at time ta before the delay time TD (see “TD1” in FIG. 7) corresponding to time ⁇ T1 elapses from time t2, step S1. The process proceeds to step S9 through S7 and S8.
- step S9 the braking time TB stored in the storage unit 73 is set as the previous braking time TB_pre.
- the time ⁇ T1 from time t1 to time t2 is stored in the storage unit 73 as the braking time TB.
- the previous braking time TB_pre is set to the time ⁇ T1.
- step S10 it is determined whether or not the opening time TBoff is longer than the delay time TD.
- the release time TBoff is the time from the time t2 to the time ta, and is not equal to or greater than the delay time TD, so the process proceeds to step S12.
- step S12 the sum of the current braking time TB_curr and the previous braking time TB_pre is set as the braking time TB.
- ⁇ T1 which is the previous braking time TB_pre and the elapsed time from the time ta which is the current braking time TB_curr are set as the braking time TB.
- step S13 the count value Timer_Brk_Off of the release timer 72 is set to zero.
- step S14 the brake demand valve 42 is kept off. Thereby, the amount of lubricating oil to the brake devices 5a and 5b is maintained at the first supply amount.
- steps S1, S7, S8, S12, S13 and S14 are repeated until time tb.
- the time tb is reached, the sum of the time ⁇ T1 from the time t1 to the time t2 and the time ⁇ T3 from the time ta to the time tb is set as the braking time TB.
- step S4 when the brake devices 5a and 5b are switched from the braking state to the released state at time tb, the process proceeds to step S4 through steps S1, S2, and S3.
- step S4 the delay time TD is calculated from the braking time TB.
- the delay time (see “TD2” in FIG. 7) corresponding to the sum of the time ⁇ T1 and the time ⁇ T3 is set in the delay time map. Is done.
- step S5 it is determined whether or not the opening time TBoff is longer than the delay time TD.
- the process proceeds to step S14, and the brake demand valve 42 is kept off. For this reason, the amount of lubricating oil to the brake devices 5a and 5b is maintained at the first supply amount.
- steps S2, S3, S5, and S14 are repeated until time tc is reached.
- step S5 When the time tc is reached, it is determined in step S5 that the release time TBoff is equal to or greater than the delay time TD, and the process proceeds to step S6.
- step S6 the brake demand valve 42 is switched on. Thereby, the amount of lubricating oil to the brake devices 5a and 5b is reduced from the first supply amount to the second supply amount.
- the lubricating oil amount is not immediately reduced to the second supply amount, but the delay time has elapsed. Sometimes reduced to a second supply.
- the delay time is acquired from the delay time map stored in the storage unit 73 and the actually counted braking time. For this reason, the delay time suitable for the amount of heat generated in the brake devices 5a and 5b can be set. Thereby, loss of driving force in the brake devices 5a and 5b can be suppressed, and occurrence of overheating can be suppressed.
- the delay time when the brake devices 5a and 5b are switched to the released state thereafter is the current braking time. It is calculated from a value obtained by adding the time and the previous braking time. As a result, the brake devices 5a and 5b that have not been sufficiently cooled at the time of the previous opening and the heat remains can be sufficiently cooled at the time of the current opening.
- the delay time when the brake devices 5a and 5b are subsequently switched to the released state does not include the previous braking time. Calculated from time only. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the delay time from being set unnecessarily long, and it is possible to suppress loss of driving force in the brake devices 5a and 5b.
- the second supply amount is a small supply amount, but the second supply amount may be zero.
- the first supply amount is the total amount discharged from the hydraulic pump 30, but may be an amount smaller than the total amount.
- the demand time is used as the reference time when the value of the previous braking time stored in the storage unit 73 is set to 0.
- another reference time may be used.
- a predetermined constant or a value obtained by multiplying the demand time by a predetermined constant may be used.
- the flow rate switching valve 43 may be controlled steplessly or in three or more stages by proportional control.
- the brake demand valve 42 is switched steplessly between a high state and a low state.
- the High state corresponds to the above-described OFF state of the brake demand valve 42, and is a state in which, for example, the amount of lubricating oil is set to the maximum flow rate.
- the Low state corresponds to the on state of the brake demand valve 42 described above, and is a state in which, for example, the amount of lubricating oil is set to 50% of the maximum flow rate.
- the brake demand valve 42 is gradually changed from the high state to the low state. Specifically, as the current value of the control signal to the pilot control valve 44 is gradually increased, the opening degree of the flow rate switching valve 43 gradually decreases. Thereby, after the time tc, the amount of lubricating oil to the brake devices 5a and 5b is gradually reduced from the first supply amount to the second supply amount.
- the present invention is effective as a work vehicle and a work vehicle control method because it has the effect of suppressing the loss of driving force in the brake device and suppressing the occurrence of overheating.

Abstract
Description
本発明の一実施形態に係る潤滑装置を備えた作業車両1の概略システム構成図を図1に示す。この作業車両1は、例えばブルドーザであり、エンジン2、動力伝達機構3、一対の走行装置4a,4b、潤滑油供給部6、各種の操作部32-35、制御部7などを備えている。これらの構成部品のうち潤滑油供給部6および制御部7が、ブレーキ装置5a,5bに冷却用の潤滑油を供給する潤滑装置を構成している。なお、各種の操作部32-35の詳細については後述する。
以下、制御部7が行うブレーキ装置5a,5bへの潤滑油量の制御について、図5のフローチャートおよび図6、図7のタイミングチャートに基づいて詳細に説明する。図5のフローチャートで用いられるパラメータTimer_Brk_On、TB、TD、TB_pre、TB_currの初期値はゼロに設定されている。また、パラメータTimer_Brk_Off、TBoffの初期値は、最大値(0×FFFF)に設定されている。エンジン2が始動されたときには、各パラメータは初期値とされる。なお、エンジン2の始動時ではなく、図示せぬ走行ロックレバーが解除されたとき、すなわち走行可能な状態となったときに各パラメータを初期値とするようにしても良い。
このブレーキ装置5a,5bの潤滑装置では、ブレーキ装置5a,5bが制動状態から開放状態に切り換えられたときに直ちに潤滑油量が第2供給量に低減されるのではなく、ディレー時間が経過したときに第2供給量に低減される。そして、このディレー時間は、記憶部73に記憶されたディレー時間マップと、実際にカウントされた制動時間とから取得される。このため、ブレーキ装置5a,5bにおいて発生した熱量に適したディレー時間を設定することができる。これにより、ブレーキ装置5a,5bにおける駆動力のロスを抑制することができると共に、オーバーヒートの発生を抑えることができる。
(a)上記の実施形態では制動時間とディレー時間との対応関係を示すマップが用いられているが、テーブルなどの他の算出手段が用いられてもよい。また、ディレー時間マップは上記のような形状に限らず、異なる形状のものが用いられてもよい。
流量切換弁43は比例制御によって無段階あるいは3以上の多段階に制御されてもよい。この場合、図8(b)に示すように、ブレーキディマンド弁42は、High状態とLow状態との間で無段階に切り換えられる。High状態とは、上記のブレーキディマンド弁42のオフ状態に相当し、例えば、潤滑油量が最大流量とされる状態である。Low状態は、上記のブレーキディマンド弁42のオン状態に相当し、例えば、潤滑油量が最大流量の50%にされる状態である。
上記の潤滑油の供給量の制御は、ステアリング操作部34の操作によってブレーキ装置5a,5bの制動と開放とが切り換えられる場合にも適用することができる。また、この場合、例えば、旋回操作時に片側のブレーキ装置だけ制動状態となっていても、左右両方のブレーキ装置5a,5bの潤滑油量を増加させてもよい。また、旋回操作時に一方のブレーキ装置だけが制動状態である場合は、開放状態である他方のブレーキ装置に対しては潤滑油量を増加させないようにしてもよい。
