Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of excavators, and particularly to a control method, device, excavator and storage medium for a boom decoupling hydraulic system. Background Art
[0002] During the operation of a hydraulic excavator, the boom performs periodic lifting and lowering actions. Most of the boom potential energy is consumed in the form of heat at the multi-way valve port, which not only causes serious energy waste and high fuel consumption, but also easily causes vibration noise and heat generation in the hydraulic system, reducing the reliability and lifespan of the system.
[0003] In this regard, as provided in a previous patent with the application number CN202110914796.1, a control method for recovering the potential energy of an excavator is provided. When it is detected that the boom of the excavator is in the descending working state, the energy consumption function of the excavator is determined, and the optimal working point corresponding to the scenario with the lowest energy consumption is calculated by the minimum weighted deviation method. Then, the potential energy of the excavator boom is recovered according to the above optimal working point to achieve efficient recovery of the excavator potential energy and ensure the maximization of the recovery rate of the potential energy recovery system.

The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
[0069] Embodiment 1
[0070] This embodiment provides a control method for a boom decoupling hydraulic system. The control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system is applicable to the situation of automatically controlling the lifting and lowering of the boom. The control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system can be executed by a control device of the boom decoupling hydraulic system. The control device of the boom decoupling hydraulic system can be implemented in a software and / or hardware manner and integrated in an excavator.
[0071] Please refer to Figure 1 , the boom decoupling hydraulic system includes a battery 2, a motor 3 electrically connected to the battery 2, a first oil pump 4 and a second oil pump 5 simultaneously drivingly connected to the motor 3, and a boom cylinder 1. The boom cylinder 1 has a rodless chamber 102 and a rod chamber 101. Two ends of the first oil pump 4 are respectively connected to the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102 through pipelines. Two ends of the second oil pump 5 are respectively connected to a make-up oil circuit 7 and the rodless chamber 102 through pipelines. Both the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5 can rotate forward and backward.
[0072] Specifically, the boom cylinder 1 includes a piston rod and a cylinder block. The piston rod divides the inner cavity of the cylinder block into a rod chamber 101 and a rodless chamber 102. The piston rod passes through the rod chamber 101 such that the cross-sectional area of the rod chamber 101 is smaller than that of the rodless chamber 102. The piston rod can move within the cylinder block. When the piston rod moves, the volumes of the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102 increase and decrease reciprocally. Wherein, the cylinder block is hinged to the body of the excavator, the piston rod is hinged to the boom of the excavator, and the boom is hinged to the body. By extending and retracting the piston rod, the lifting and lowering of the boom are realized.
[0073] The boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a make-up oil pump 6 and a make-up oil motor 23 driving the make-up oil pump 6 to rotate. One end of the make-up oil pump 6 is connected to a fuel tank 22, and the other end is connected to the make-up oil circuit 7. The oil in the fuel tank 22 can be pumped to the make-up oil circuit 7 through the make-up oil pump 6, and the make-up oil circuit 7 supplies oil to the second oil pump 5. Preferably, the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a make-up oil overflow valve 8 connected to the make-up oil circuit 7. The make-up oil overflow valve 8 is used to overflow the oil in the make-up oil circuit 7 exceeding the set pressure to the fuel tank 22.
[0074] In this embodiment, one end of the first oil pump 4 is communicated with the rodless chamber 102 through a first oil circuit 9, the other end of the first oil pump 4 is communicated with the rod chamber 101 through a second oil circuit 10, the second oil pump 5 is communicated with the first oil circuit 9 through a third oil circuit 11. Both the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5 are closed-type oil pumps, specifically, they can be closed-type fixed-displacement pumps. The first oil pump 4 and the two oil chambers of the boom cylinder 1 form a hydraulic circuit. The second oil pump 5 and the rodless chamber 102 and the make-up oil circuit 7 form a hydraulic circuit. The boom cylinder 1 is supplied with oil through the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5, realizing the decoupling of the boom cylinder 1, facilitating the improvement of the control performance of the boom cylinder 1.
[0075] The boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a bypass oil circuit (not shown in the drawings), a first reversing valve (not shown in the drawings) provided in the bypass oil circuit, and a second reversing valve (not shown in the drawings) provided in the third oil circuit 11. The two ends of the bypass oil circuit are respectively connected to the oil replenishing circuit 7 and the third oil circuit 11, and the connection point between the bypass oil circuit and the third oil circuit 11 is located between the second reversing valve and the second oil pump 5. The first reversing valve is used to control the connection and disconnection of the bypass oil circuit, and the second reversing valve is used to control the connection and disconnection of the third oil circuit 11. When the motor 3 starts, the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5 rotate simultaneously. If the first reversing valve connects the bypass oil circuit and the second reversing valve disconnects the third oil circuit 11 at this time, the second oil pump 5 can drive the oil to circulate through the bypass oil circuit without doing external work, and only the first oil pump 4 drives the oil to flow between the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102. If the first reversing valve disconnects the bypass oil circuit and the second reversing valve connects the third oil circuit 11 at this time, the first oil pump 4 drives the oil to flow between the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102, and the second oil pump 5 drives the oil to flow between the rodless chamber 102 and the oil replenishing circuit 7, so as to realize that only the first oil pump 4 outputs externally, or the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5 output externally simultaneously to meet different working condition requirements.
[0076] Specifically, the driver can control the lifting and lowering of the boom by operating the control handle. The piston rod can move relative to the cylinder block and has an extended position and a retracted position. Taking the first oil pump 4 driving the oil to flow between the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102, and the second oil pump 5 driving the oil to flow between the rodless chamber 102 and the oil replenishing circuit 7 as an example, when the piston rod moves towards the extended position, the piston rod gradually extends outwards, the boom rises, the first oil pump 4 pumps the oil in the rod chamber 101 into the rodless chamber 102, and the second oil pump 5 pumps the oil in the oil replenishing circuit 7 into the rodless chamber 102. When the piston rod moves towards the retracted position, the piston rod gradually retracts inwards, the boom descends, the first oil pump 4 pumps a part of the oil in the rodless chamber 102 into the rod chamber 101, and at the same time, the second oil pump 5 pumps another part of the oil in the rodless chamber 102 into the oil replenishing circuit 7.
[0077] It should be noted that when the boom descends, if the boom needs to descend quickly, according to the actual working condition requirements, the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5 can be driven to rotate by the oil, and at this time the motor 3 rotates and generates electricity under the drive of the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5, and the generated electric energy can be stored in the battery 2 to realize the recovery of the boom potential energy; or according to the actual working condition needs, the first oil pump 4 and the second oil pump 5 can be driven to rotate by the motor 3.
[0078] The boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a balance valve 12. The balance valve 12 connects the one with a lower oil pressure among the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102 to the oil replenishing circuit 7. By providing the balance valve 12, the oil in the one with a lower oil pressure among the rodless chamber 102 and the rod chamber 101 can directly enter the oil replenishing circuit 7, or the oil in the oil replenishing circuit 7 can directly enter the one with a lower oil pressure among the rodless chamber 102 and the rod chamber 101. Since the temperature of the oil in the oil replenishing circuit 7 is relatively low, when the temperature of the oil in the hydraulic circuit is too high, replacement of the hot oil in the hydraulic circuit can be achieved, the normal oil temperature in the hydraulic circuit can be ensured, and thus the normal operation of the boom cylinder 1 can be ensured. Moreover, compared with the prior art, temperature monitoring is not required, and the cost can be effectively reduced. In addition, connecting the one with a lower oil pressure among the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102 to the oil replenishing circuit 7 through the balance valve 12 can also effectively compensate for the flow difference between the rod chamber 101 and the rodless chamber 102.
[0079] In this embodiment, the balance valve 12 includes a P port, an A port, and a B port. Among them, the P port is connected to the oil replenishing circuit 7, the A port is connected to the first oil circuit 9, and the B port is connected to the second oil circuit 10. The balance valve 12 has a first left position and a first right position. When the balance valve 12 is in the first left position, the balance valve 12 connects the P port and the B port and disconnects the A port, so that the oil replenishing circuit 7 is connected to the second oil circuit 10 and the first oil circuit 9 is disconnected; when the balance valve 12 is in the first right position, the balance valve 12 connects the P port and the A port and disconnects the B port, so that the oil replenishing circuit 7 is connected to the first oil circuit 9 and the second oil circuit 10 is disconnected. Preferably, the balance valve 12 further has a first middle position. When the balance valve 12 is in the first middle position, the P port is disconnected, the A port is disconnected, and the B port is disconnected, so that the oil replenishing circuit 7 is simultaneously disconnected from the first oil circuit 9 and the second oil circuit 10.
[0080] In this embodiment, the balance valve 12 is specifically a hydraulic control valve. The balance valve 12 has a first hydraulic control end and a second hydraulic control end. The first hydraulic control end is connected to the first oil circuit 9, and the second hydraulic control end is connected to the second oil circuit 10. The first hydraulic control end and the second hydraulic control end are respectively located on both sides of the spool of the balance valve 12, and the hydraulic oil at the first hydraulic control end and the second hydraulic control end directly acts on the spool of the balance valve 12. By comparing the force exerted on the spool of the balance valve 12 by the hydraulic oil at the first hydraulic control end and the force exerted on the spool of the balance valve 12 by the hydraulic oil at the second hydraulic control end, the stop position of the spool of the balance valve 12 is determined. Specifically, when the oil pressure at the first hydraulic control end is greater than the oil pressure at the second hydraulic control end, the balance valve 12 is in the first left position; when the oil pressure at the first hydraulic control end is less than the oil pressure at the second hydraulic control end, the balance valve 12 is in the first right position; when the oil pressure at the first hydraulic control end is equal to the oil pressure at the second hydraulic control end, the balance valve 12 is in the first middle position. In other embodiments, the balance valve 12 can also be an electro-control valve.
[0081] Optionally, the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a hydraulic control check valve 13 and a hydraulic control reversing valve 14. The hydraulic control check valve 13 is arranged in the first oil circuit 9, and the hydraulic control check valve 13 is located between the connection of the third oil circuit 11 and the first oil circuit 9 and the rodless cavity 102. The hydraulic control check valve 13 can control the connection and disconnection of the first oil circuit 9 under the action of oil pressure or the control of the hydraulic control reversing valve 14.
[0082] Specifically, in this embodiment, the hydraulic control check valve 13 includes a valve housing and a spool. The valve housing has a first working interface and a second working interface. The first working interface and the second working interface are connected in series in the first oil circuit 9, and the first working interface is closer to the rodless cavity 102 than the second working interface; the spool slides in the valve housing, and the spool divides the inner cavity of the valve housing into a spring cavity and a working cavity. The spool can slide relative to the valve housing and has an open position and a closed position. When the spool is in the closed position, the spool can further divide the working cavity into a non-communicating first chamber and a second chamber. Among them, the first working interface is always connected to the first chamber, and the second working interface is always connected to the second chamber. Since the first chamber and the second chamber are separated, the first oil circuit 9 is disconnected; when the spool is in the open position, the first chamber and the second chamber are connected, and at this time the first oil circuit 9 is connected.
[0083] The hydraulic control check valve 13 further includes a spring. The valve housing has a first control interface and a second control interface. The spring is located in the spring cavity and the two ends of the spring are respectively abutted against the spool and the valve housing. The first control interface is always connected to the first chamber, and the second control interface is always connected to the spring cavity. The spring and the hydraulic oil in the spring cavity give the spool a force F1 moving towards the closed position, and the hydraulic oil in the working cavity gives the spool a force F2 moving towards the open position. By comparing the magnitudes of F1 and F2, the position of the spool is determined.
[0084] Furthermore, the hydraulically controlled directional valve 14 is a two-position three-way valve, and the hydraulically controlled directional valve 14 can connect the first control port and the second control port. At this time, the oil pressures in the working chamber and the spring chamber are equal, but the acting area of the oil in the working chamber and the valve core is smaller than that of the oil in the spring chamber and the valve core, and the spring in the spring chamber also applies a force to the valve core, which can make the valve core move to the closed position to ensure the stable closing of the first oil passage 9. The hydraulically controlled directional valve 14 can also connect the second control port and the oil tank 22. At this time, the magnitudes of F1 and F2 are compared to determine the position of the valve core. When F2 > F1, the spring is compressed, which can make the valve core move to the open position, thereby opening the first oil passage 9.
[0085] The boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a first electromagnetic solenoid valve 15. The first electromagnetic solenoid valve 15 is used to control the on-off of the signal oil source of the hydraulically controlled directional valve 14, thereby controlling the working position of the hydraulically controlled directional valve 14, and can connect the first control port and the second control port, or connect the second control port and the oil tank 22 and disconnect the first control port. In other embodiments, the hydraulically controlled directional valve 14 can also be replaced by an electrically controlled directional valve.
[0086] Optionally, the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a third directional valve 17. The third directional valve 17 is disposed on the first oil passage 9, and the third directional valve 17 is located between the connection of the third oil passage 11 and the first oil passage 9 and the first oil pump 4. The third directional valve 17 is used to control the connection or disconnection of the first oil passage 9. When the third directional valve 17 disconnects the first oil passage 9, it can block the first oil pump 4 from supplying oil to the rodless cavity 102 and prevent the oil in the rodless cavity 102 from flowing to the first oil pump 4. At this time, only the second oil pump 5 is used to drive the boom cylinder 1.
[0087] The third directional valve 17 includes a third hydraulic control end and a fourth hydraulic control end. The first electromagnetic solenoid valve 15 is also used to control the on-off of the oil passage of the third hydraulic control end. The boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a second electromagnetic solenoid valve 16. The second electromagnetic solenoid valve 16 is also used to control the on-off of the oil passage of the fourth hydraulic control end. The third hydraulic control end and the fourth hydraulic control end are respectively located on both sides of the valve core of the third directional valve 17, and the oil of the third hydraulic control end and the fourth hydraulic control end directly acts on the valve core of the third directional valve 17. By comparing the force exerted on the valve core of the third directional valve 17 by the oil of the third hydraulic control end and the force exerted on the valve core of the third directional valve 17 by the oil of the fourth hydraulic control end, the stop position of the valve core of the third directional valve 17 is determined.
[0088] Optionally, the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes a first oil replenishing check valve 18 and a second oil replenishing check valve 19. The first oil replenishing check valve 18 is connected between the oil replenishing oil circuit 7 and the rodless cavity 102, and the first oil replenishing check valve 18 only allows the oil fluid to flow from the oil replenishing oil circuit 7 to the rodless cavity 102.

Specifically, the second oil replenishing check valve 19 is connected between the oil replenishing oil circuit 7 and the second oil circuit 10. By setting the first oil replenishing check valve 18, when the oil fluid pressure in the rodless cavity 102 is low, the rodless cavity 102 can be replenished with oil fluid through the oil replenishing oil circuit 7. By setting the second oil replenishing check valve 19, when the oil fluid pressure in the rod cavity 101 is low, the rod cavity 101 can be replenished with oil fluid through the oil replenishing oil circuit 7, so as to further balance the flow difference between the rod cavity 101 and the rodless cavity 102. Specifically, the connection point of the first oil replenishing check valve 18 and the first oil circuit 9 is located between the pilot-operated check valve 13 and the boom cylinder 1.

[0090] Please refer to Figure 2 , the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system includes the following steps.
[0091] S100: Obtain the control signal for the boom to lower.
[0092] Specifically, the control handle is used to control the lifting and lowering of the boom, as well as the lifting and lowering speeds. Specifically, the control handle has an initial position, and the control handle can be pushed forward and backward from the initial position. When pushed forward, it controls the boom to lift, and when pulled backward, it controls the boom to lower. Therefore, by collecting the actual position of the control handle, it can be determined whether the issued signal is a boom lowering control signal or a boom lifting control signal. Among them, the actual position of the control handle can be detected by a position sensor provided on the control handle.
[0093] S110: Obtain the working oil pressure P, where the working oil pressure P is the larger value between the oil pressure in the rodless cavity and the oil pressure in the rod cavity.
[0094] The oil pressure at one end of the first oil circuit close to the rodless cavity can be detected by a pressure sensor, which is the oil pressure in the rodless cavity; the oil pressure in the second oil circuit is detected by a pressure sensor, which is the oil pressure in the rod cavity.
[0095] S120: Obtain the make-up oil pressure C of the make-up oil circuit.
[0096] The oil pressure in the make-up oil circuit can be detected by a pressure sensor, which is the make-up oil pressure C.
[0097] S130: Determine whether the difference between P and C exceeds the set oil pressure.
[0098] If so, execute S140; if not, execute S240.
[0099] Among them, the magnitude of the set oil pressure can be set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, a scheme with a set oil pressure of 50 bar is exemplarily given.
[0100] Since the balance valve can connect the make-up oil circuit to the one with the lower oil pressure among the first oil circuit and the second oil circuit, when the difference between P and C exceeds the set oil pressure, that is, the oil pressure difference between the rod cavity and the rodless cavity exceeds the set oil pressure. At this time, the oil pressure difference between the rod cavity and the rodless cavity is large. When the oil flows from one of them to the other, it can drive the first oil pump and the second oil pump to rotate, and then drive the motor to generate electricity.
[0101] It should be noted that the movement direction of the piston rod and the direction of the load force on the piston rod jointly determine the oil pressures in the rodless cavity and the rod cavity. It is defined that when the direction of the load force is the same as the movement direction of the piston rod, the load force is a negative load, and when the direction of the load force is opposite to the movement direction of the piston rod, the load force is a positive load. Taking the example of the piston rod moving towards the retracted position, when the piston rod is subjected to a negative load, the oil pressure in the rodless cavity is greater than the oil pressure in the rod cavity, and the balance valve connects the make-up oil circuit and the second oil circuit; when the piston rod is subjected to a positive load, the oil pressure in the rod cavity is greater than the oil pressure in the rodless cavity, and the balance valve connects the make-up oil circuit and the first oil circuit. Therefore, when the boom needs to descend, the oil pressure in the rod cavity may be greater than the oil pressure in the rodless cavity, or the oil pressure in the rodless cavity may be greater than the oil pressure in the rod cavity.
[0102] S140: Obtain the current battery power.
[0103] The current battery power can be obtained through the battery controller.
[0104] S150: Determine whether the current battery power does not exceed the set power.
[0105] If so, execute S160; if not, execute S240.
[0106] Among them, the magnitude of the set power can be set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, the set power is exemplarily given as 90%.
[0107] S160: Perform energy recovery. The energy recovery includes the first oil pump and the second oil pump driving the motor to generate electricity under the drive of the oil fluid, and storing the electric energy in the battery.
[0108] When the current power of the battery does not exceed the set power, it indicates that the battery has enough capacity to store more electric energy, and energy recovery can be performed; however, when the current power exceeds the set power, it indicates that the battery has too much power at this time and is not suitable for further storing electric energy. Among them, when there is no need to store electric energy, only the electrical connection between the battery and the motor needs to be disconnected.
[0109] When energy recovery needs to be performed, there is no need to supply power to the motor. Under the action of the oil pressure difference between the rod chamber and the non-rod chamber, the oil fluid will drive the first oil pump and the second oil pump to rotate, and then drive the motor to rotate and generate electricity through the first oil pump and the second oil pump, and the electric energy generated by the power generation is stored in the battery.
[0110] The control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system provided in this embodiment, by obtaining the control signal for the boom to descend, obtaining the working oil pressure P, obtaining the make-up oil pressure C of the make-up oil circuit, judging whether the difference between P and C exceeds the set oil pressure, when the difference between P and C exceeds the set oil pressure, obtaining the current power of the battery, and judging whether the current power of the battery does not exceed the set power, when the current power of the battery does not exceed the set power, perform energy recovery, the control method is simple and suitable for a closed hydraulic system.
[0111] Optionally, please refer to Figure 3 , the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes the following steps after step S160.
[0112] S170: Obtain the position of the control handle.
[0113] Detect the position of the control handle through the position sensor provided on the control handle.
[0114] S180: Determine the required rotational speed of the motor based on the position of the control handle.
[0115] It is understandable that the driver controls the lifting and lowering speeds of the boom by manipulating the position of the joystick, and the lifting and lowering speeds of the boom are controlled by a motor. A first mapping relationship between the position of the joystick and the required rotational speed of the motor is pre-stored in the memory. The required rotational speed of the motor can be determined by the obtained position of the joystick and the first mapping relationship, and the first mapping relationship can be obtained through a large number of previous experiments.
[0116] S190: Obtain the current rotational speed of the motor.
[0117] The current rotational speed of the motor can be detected by a rotational speed sensor.
[0118] S200: Determine an additional torque based on the difference between the current rotational speed of the motor and the required rotational speed of the motor, and the motor outputs the additional torque.
[0119] A second mapping relationship between the difference between the current rotational speed of the motor and the required rotational speed of the motor and the additional torque is pre-stored in the memory. The additional torque of the motor can be determined by the difference between the current rotational speed and the required rotational speed of the motor and the second mapping relationship, and the second mapping relationship can be obtained through a large number of previous experiments.
[0120] In this embodiment, when the motor outputs an additional torque, the current rotational speed of the motor can be adjusted to the required rotational speed. Specifically, when the current rotational speed of the motor is greater than the required rotational speed of the motor, the additional torque is used to provide resistance to the output shaft of the motor to reduce the rotational speed of the motor; when the current rotational speed of the motor is less than the required rotational speed of the motor, the additional torque is used to provide power to the output shaft of the motor to increase the rotational speed of the motor. Among them, the additional torque can be controlled by controlling the positive and negative of the current supplied to the motor. When the tendency of the current to drive the motor to rotate is the same as the current rotation direction of the motor, power is provided to the motor; when the tendency of the current to drive the motor to rotate is opposite to the current rotation direction of the motor, resistance is provided to the motor.
[0121] Through steps S170 to S200, it can be ensured that the motor generates electricity to recover the potential energy of the boom, and the desired speed of the driver for lifting or lowering the boom can also be satisfied.
[0122] Optionally, please refer to Figure 3 , the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes, after step S200:
[0123] S210: Replace the hydraulic oil in the oil cavity with the smaller oil pressure between the rodless cavity and the rodless cavity with the oil in the supplementary oil circuit.
[0124] Specifically, the hydraulic fluid in the first oil circuit exerts a first acting force on the valve core of the balance valve through the first hydraulic control end, and the hydraulic fluid in the second oil circuit exerts a second acting force on the valve core of the balance valve through the second hydraulic control end. Under the combined action of the first acting force and the second acting force, the valve core makes the oil circuit with the lower oil pressure among the first oil circuit and the second oil circuit communicate with the oil replenishing circuit, thereby realizing the replacement of the hydraulic fluid, reducing the temperature of the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic circuit, and ensuring that the boom can work stably.
[0125] Optionally, please refer to Figure 4 , and the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes the following steps:
[0126] S220: Obtain the control signal for the boom to lift.
[0127] The method for obtaining the control signal for the boom to lift is the same as that for obtaining the control signal for the boom to lower, and will not be elaborated here.
[0128] S230: Obtain the working oil pressure P.
[0129] S240: Determine the driving torque T of the oil pump based on the working oil pressure P.
[0130] A third mapping relationship between the working oil pressure P and the driving torque T of the oil pump is pre-stored in the memory. The driving torque T of the oil pump can be determined through the obtained working oil pressure P and the third mapping relationship. The third mapping relationship can be obtained through a large number of previous experiments.
[0131] S250: Obtain the rated torque a of the motor.
[0132] The rated torque a of the motor is related to the model of the motor and is pre-stored in the memory.
[0133] S260: Compare the magnitudes of T and a / 2.
[0134] If T is greater than a / 2, then execute S270; if T is not greater than a / 2, then execute S280.
[0135] S270: Only the first oil pump outputs.
[0136] S280: The first oil pump and the second oil pump output simultaneously.
[0137] Among them, when T is greater than a / 2, it indicates that at this time the motor can drive the first oil pump and the second oil pump to rotate simultaneously, and the motor will not exceed the rated torque. Therefore, the first oil pump and the second oil pump can be made to output simultaneously; when T is not greater than a / 2, it indicates that if the motor drives the first oil pump and the second oil pump to rotate simultaneously at this time, the motor will exceed the rated torque. Therefore, only the first oil pump is made to output.
[0138] Among them, when the second oil pump does not output, it can be achieved by making the first reversing valve connect to the bypass oil circuit and the second reversing valve disconnect the third oil circuit. When the second oil pump outputs, it can be achieved by the first reversing valve disconnecting the bypass oil circuit and the second reversing valve connecting the third oil circuit.
[0139] Optionally, please refer to Figure 4 , the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes the following steps after step S280:
[0140] S290: Obtain the position of the control handle.
[0141] S300: Determine the required speed of the motor based on the position of the control handle.
[0142] Step S300 is the same as the above step S180 and will not be elaborated here.
[0143] S310: The motor runs at the required speed.
[0144] Through steps S290 to S310, it is possible to make the motor drive both the first oil pump and the second oil pump at the required speed, or only the first oil pump outputs, so that the boom can be lifted or lowered at the speed expected by the driver.
[0145] Optionally, please refer to Figure 4 , the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system further includes the following steps after step S310.
[0146] S320: Make the one with the lower oil pressure among the rod chamber and the rodless chamber perform oil replacement with the oil replenishing oil circuit.
[0147] The control method of step S320 is the same as that of step S210 and will not be elaborated here. Through step S320, the temperature of the oil in the hydraulic circuit can be reduced, and it can be ensured that the boom can work stably.
[0148] For the control method of the boom decoupling hydraulic system provided in this embodiment, when obtaining the control signal for lifting the boom and obtaining the working oil pressure P, when the difference between P and C does not exceed the set oil pressure, and when the current battery power does not exceed the set power, determine the driving torque T of the oil pump based on the working oil pressure P, obtain the rated torque a of the motor, compare the magnitudes of T and a / 2. When T is greater than a / 2, only the first oil pump outputs. When T is not greater than a / 2, the first oil pump and the second oil pump output simultaneously to avoid overloading the motor. Then obtain the position of the control handle, determine the required speed of the motor based on the position of the control handle, and the motor runs at the required speed, so that the boom can be lifted or lowered at the speed expected by the driver. Then make the one with the lower oil pressure among the rod chamber and the rodless chamber perform oil replacement with the oil replenishing oil circuit to reduce the temperature of the oil in the hydraulic circuit and ensure that the boom can work stably.
