[0002] During the operation of lifting machinery, the boom needs to be frequently lifted and lowered. How to recover and utilize the energy wasted during the lifting and lowering process is the focus of research. Currently, the mainstream energy recovery methods mostly adopt electrical and hydraulic types. The main energy storage components of the electrical type are supercapacitors and storage batteries, and the advantages are large energy storage density and small volume. Guan Che aimed at the boom system of a pure electric drive hydraulic excavator, using a supercapacitor as the energy storage device, and at the same time introducing a DC / DC to stabilize the bus voltage between the supercapacitor and the motor. The results show that compared with the traditional electric drive excavator, 29% energy saving is achieved. However, the electrical recovery conversion link is numerous, and multiple conversions reduce the overall efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the invention is to overcome the above deficiencies, thereby providing a multi-condition potential energy recovery and utilization system for lifting machinery with high power density, environmental protection and energy saving, low cost, and effectively improving the energy utilization rate.
[0004] To achieve the above design objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: an environmental protection and energy-saving multi-condition potential energy recovery and utilization system for a hoisting machine, including a main circuit and a recovery circuit.

A two-position two-way solenoid directional control valve is provided at the oil discharge port of the relief valve, and the overflow port of the relief valve and the outlet end of the two-position two-way solenoid directional control valve are both connected to the fuel tank I through pipelines. The outlet end of the check valve II is respectively connected to a three-position six-way solenoid directional control valve and a three-position three-way solenoid directional control valve I through pipelines.

The recovery circuit consists of an oil tank II 22, an oil tank III, a three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15, a fixed-displacement motor 20, a fixed-displacement pump II 21, an energy release control valve I 13, an energy release control valve II 14, a high-pressure accumulator 9, and a low-pressure accumulator 10. The oil tank II 22 is respectively connected to the fixed-displacement pump II 21 and the fixed-displacement motor 20 through pipelines, the fixed-displacement pump II 21 is connected to a check valve III 19 through a pipeline, the check valve III 19 is connected to a three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15 through a pipeline, a relief valve II 18 is connected to the pipeline between the check valve III 19 and the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15, the overflow port of the relief valve II is connected to the oil tank III 25 through a pipeline, the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15 is respectively connected to a check valve IV 11 and a check valve V 12 through pipelines, the check valve IV 11 is respectively connected to the high-pressure accumulator 9 and the energy release control valve I 13 through pipelines, and the check valve V 12 is respectively connected to the low-pressure accumulator 10 and the energy release control valve II 14 through pipelines.
[0012] The fixed-displacement motor 20 and the fixed-displacement pump II 21 provided in the recovery circuit are connected in an interconnected manner.
[0013] The fixed-displacement motor 20 in the recovery circuit is interconnected with the solenoid directional valve 6 in the main circuit through a pipeline.
[0014] On the pipelines where the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15 in the recovery circuit is respectively connected to the check valve IV 11 and the check valve V 12, they are both interconnected with the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve I 24 in the main circuit through another pipeline.
[0015] On the oil pipe between the check valve I 27 and the fixed displacement pump 1 in the main circuit, another oil pipe is connected to the energy release control valve I 13 in the recovery circuit through the check valve VI 17, and then connected to the energy release control valve II 14 in the recovery circuit through the check valve VII 16.
[0016] When the present invention is in use: taking the boom hydraulic system of a certain model forklift truck as an example, under normal lifting conditions, 1YA of the three-position six-way solenoid directional valve 5 is powered on, and the pressure oil of the oil pump passes through the check valve II 23, the left position of the three-position six-way solenoid directional valve 5, the solenoid directional valve 6, and the pressure compensated flow control valve 7 and reaches the hydraulic cylinder 8. When descending, under the action of the self-weight of the fork mechanical parts fixedly connected to the hydraulic cylinder 8 and the load, according to the feedback of the pressure sensor, if the system determines it is the light load descending stage, 3YA of the solenoid directional valve 6 and 9YA of the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15 are powered on, and the oil in the hydraulic cylinder 8 passes through the pressure compensated flow control valve 7, the right position of the solenoid directional valve 6, the fixed displacement motor 20, the fixed displacement pump II 21, and the check valve III 19, and finally fills the low-pressure accumulator 10 through the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15. If the system determines it is the heavy load descending stage, 3YA of the solenoid directional valve 6 and 8YA of the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve II 15 are powered on, and the oil in the hydraulic cylinder 8 passes through the pressure compensated flow control valve 7, the solenoid directional valve 6, the fixed displacement motor 20, and the fixed displacement pump II 21 to fill the high-pressure accumulator 9. During the recovery process, 10YA of the two-position two-way solenoid directional valve 26 is powered on, and the motor 2 unloads. During the energy-saving ascending stage, if the pressure of the hydraulic cylinder 8 is determined to be light load by the pressure sensor, 7YA of the energy release control valve II 14 is powered on, and the low-pressure accumulator 10 releases the hydraulic energy in the low-pressure energy recovery stage. The oil passes through the energy release control valve II 14, the check valve VII 16, and the check valve VI 17 and is connected to the suction port of the fixed displacement pump 1, and enters the hydraulic cylinder 8 through the pressure compensated flow control valve 7 to push the piston to rise. If it is a heavy load, 6YA of the energy release control valve I 13 is powered on, then the high-pressure accumulator 10 releases the hydraulic energy recovered during the heavy load descent, and the oil passes through the energy release control valve I 13 and the check valve VI 17 and is connected to the suction port of the fixed displacement pump 1 to supply oil to the oil cylinder. During the locking and pressure maintaining stage, the three-position six-way directional valve 5 remains in the middle position. At this time, the hydraulic cylinder 8 is in the locked state. According to the feedback of the pressure sensor, it is judged whether the low-pressure accumulator 9 and the high-pressure accumulator 10 need to be filled with liquid. If the pressure is insufficient to pre-charge the gas pressure, the fixed displacement pump 1, the three-position three-way solenoid directional valve I 24, the check valve IV 11 or the check valve V 12 can be used to fill the accumulator with liquid respectively to ensure the stability of the energy recovery process. The recovery principle of this system: during the descent of materials with different loads, the potential energy of the self-weight of other mechanical parts and the weight of the materials is converted into hydraulic energy, and the energy is stored in the accumulator through the coaxial structure of the motor-pump unit; during the ascending stage, the pressure energy in the accumulator is released to assist the main circuit in lifting the hydraulic cylinder, reducing the power consumption of the motor, and achieving the purpose of environmental protection and energy saving.
