DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below through specific implementation methods.

[0017] The present invention relates to a hydraulic control system for automatically matching a hydraulic clutch with a hydraulic brake, comprising a fuel tank assembly 1, a pump assembly 2, a one-way valve 5, an accumulator 6, an electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7, a hydraulically controlled pressure reducing valve 8, a brake release solenoid valve 9, and a clutch release solenoid valve 10. The specific structure is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7 is a three-way proportional pressure reducing valve, and the hydraulically controlled pressure reducing valve 8 is a three-way pressure reducing valve; the oil inlet end of the one-way valve 5 is connected to the oil tank assembly 1 through the pump group 2, and its oil outlet end is connected to the accumulator 6, the oil inlet P of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7, and the oil inlet P of the hydraulically controlled pressure reducing valve 8 through pipelines; the brake release solenoid valve 9 and the clutch release solenoid valve 10 are both normally open two-position two-way solenoid valves, and the oil outlet A of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7 is connected to the control port X of the hydraulically controlled pressure reducing valve 8 and the oil inlet of the brake group 11 through pipelines, and one end of the brake release solenoid valve 9 is connected to the oil port of the brake group 11 through a pipeline; the oil outlet A of the hydraulically controlled pressure reducing valve 8 and one end of the clutch release solenoid valve 10 are connected to the oil port of the clutch group 12 through pipelines, respectively, and the other end of the clutch release solenoid valve 10, the other end of the brake release solenoid valve 9, and the oil return port T of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7 are connected to the oil tank assembly 1 through pipelines. Among them, the pump group 2 can be a gear pump group 2 or a plunger pump group 2; the brake group 11 can be one brake, two brakes or multiple brakes, and the clutch group 12 can be one clutch, two clutches or multiple clutches.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, a high-pressure filter 3 is provided on the pipeline between the pump group 2 and the one-way valve 5, and the hydraulic oil pumped out by the pump group 2 is filtered by the high-pressure filter 3.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the overflow valve 4 can be a battery overflow valve 4 or an electric proportional overflow valve 4, and one end of the overflow valve 4 is connected to the pipeline between the high-pressure filter 3 and the one-way valve 5, and the other end is connected to the oil tank assembly 1 through the pipeline, and then the pressure is released through the overflow valve 4.

[0020] The present invention provides a hydraulic control method for a hydraulic control system with automatic matching of a hydraulic clutch and a hydraulic brake, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included: Step 1: First, the brake solenoid valve 9, the clutch solenoid valve 10 and the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7 are all in the de-energized state. At this time, the oil inlet P of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7 is connected with its oil return port T, and the brake solenoid valve 9 and the clutch solenoid valve 10 are both in the closed state; at this time, the brake group 11 is in the holding braking state due to the action of the internal spring, and the clutch group 12 is in the separation state due to the action of the internal spring.

[0021] Step 2: Then the pump group 2 is started to pump out the hydraulic oil in the oil tank assembly 1. After being filtered by the high-pressure filter 3, the oil flows to the accumulator 6, the oil inlet P of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7, and the oil inlet P of the hydraulic pressure reducing valve 8 respectively; In the above steps, when the hydraulic pressure is higher than the set value, the hydraulic oil is depressurized back into the oil tank assembly 1 through the relief valve 4 .

[0023] Step 4: Then the hydraulic oil at the oil inlet P of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7 flows to the brake group 11 and the control port X of the hydraulic pressure reducing valve 8 through its working port A, and the brake group 11 is released. At the same time, the oil inlet P of the hydraulic pressure reducing valve 8 is connected with its working port A. At this time, the hydraulic oil at the oil inlet P of the hydraulic pressure reducing valve 8 flows to the clutch group 12 through its working port A, and the clutch group 12 is automatically engaged.

[0024] In the above steps, the braking degree of the brake group 11 and the engagement degree of the clutch group 12 change with the current of the electric proportional pressure reducing valve 7, thereby achieving the automatic matching function of braking and engagement.
