The invention discloses a
hydraulic control system suitable for a small-
tonnage forklift, a gear shifting method and a gearbox
assembly. The
system comprises a forward
clutch, a backward
clutch, an inching valve, a two-way buffer and an electromagnetic
reversing valve. The gear shifting oil way sequentially passes through the inching valve and the electromagnetic
reversing valve and then enters the forward
clutch and the backward clutch. A bidirectional buffer is connected in series to an oil path entering the forward clutch and the backward clutch; the bidirectional buffer comprises a cavity, an elastic piece, a first
piston and a second
piston, wherein the elastic piece, the first
piston and the second piston are located in the cavity. The first piston and the second piston are fixedly connected with the two ends of the elastic piece correspondingly and divide the cavity into an advancing cavity and a retreating cavity. The elastic piece is matched with the first piston and the second piston, so that the first piston and the second piston can slide in the cavity, and power crossing in the gear switching process can be reduced, so that more gentle gear shifting is achieved.
