[0021] The drawings in the specification, which constitute a part of the present application, are used to provide a further understanding of the present application. The illustrative embodiments of the present application and their descriptions are used to explain the present application and do not constitute a limitation on the present application.

[0022] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the maintenance mode circuit of the utility model.

[0023] In the figure, 1 is a fault inspection switch; 2 is a key start switch; 3 is a normally closed relay; 4 is a first normally open relay; 5 is a second normally open relay; 6 is an engine controller; 7 is an instrument display; 8 is a warning light; and 9 is a speaker. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following is combined with Figure 1, describing the specific implementation of this embodiment.

[0025] The present application embodiment provides a loader maintenance mode control circuit, referring to Figure 1 , a loader maintenance mode control circuit, including a power supply, a fault inspection switch 1, a key start switch 2, a normally closed relay 3, a first normally open relay 4, a second normally open relay 5, an engine controller 6, a warning light 7, an instrument display 8 and a speaker 9;

[0026] In this embodiment, a DC 12V voltage is provided by the vehicle power supply to power the entire maintenance mode control circuit. The normally closed relay 3, the first normally open relay 4, and the second normally open relay 5 are all four-pin relays, each including two coil terminals and two contact terminals. The first normally open relay 4 and the second normally open relay 5 are in an open state when no current passes through the relay coil, while the normally closed relay 3 is in a closed state when no current passes through the relay coil.

[0027] In the specific circuit connection process, one end of the fault inspection switch 1 is grounded, and the other end is connected to the coil terminal b of the first normally open relay 4 and the coil terminal k of the normally closed relay 3, wherein the first normally open relay 4 and the normally closed relay 3 are connected in parallel; the other coil terminal a of the first normally open relay 4 is connected to the power supply, and its two contact terminals c and d are connected to the power supply and the alarm light 8 respectively, and the other end of the alarm light 8 is grounded. Under normal circumstances, the first normally open relay 4 is in the disconnected state, and the alarm light 8 is not on; when the equipment inspection switch is closed, the negative pole of the first normally open relay 4 is turned on, and the current flows through the coil in the first normally open relay 4, so that the relay is in the closed state, and the alarm light is powered on and flashes.

[0028] Another coil terminal l of the normally closed relay 3 is connected to the power supply, one of the contact terminals m is connected to the power supply through the key start switch 2, and the other contact terminal n is connected to the engine controller 6. When the fault repair switch 1 is closed, the current in the normally closed relay 3 is conducted, so that the relay switch is in the off state, the engine power-on signal cannot be transmitted to the engine controller 6, and the loader engine cannot be started.

[0029] One of the coil terminals e of the second normally open relay 5 is connected to the power supply through the key start switch 2, and the other coil terminal f is connected to the coil terminal k of the normally closed relay 3. One of the contact terminals g of the second normally open relay 5 is connected to the power supply, and the other contact terminal h is connected to the instrument display 7 and the speaker 9. When the fault inspection switch 1 is closed, the loader key start switch 2 is closed, and the engine does not start at this time. At the same time, since the current of the second normally open relay 5 flows, the relay switch is closed, so that the instrument display 7 displays the words "under maintenance", and the speaker 9 emits a buzzer to remind the operator that the transfer machine is under maintenance at this time, so as to avoid the danger to the maintenance personnel caused by accidental start of the vehicle.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] When the loader fails, the maintenance personnel first turn on the fault maintenance switch 1, so that the first normally open relay 4 is closed, and the vehicle warning light 8 is controlled to flash; due to the large size of the loader, when other personnel do not notice the loader warning light 8 signal and the maintenance personnel, and start the loader with the key, the fault maintenance switch 1 is closed, so that the normally closed relay 3 is disconnected, and then the power-on signal cannot be transmitted to the engine control circuit 6, so that other personnel cannot start the vehicle. At the same time, in the process of starting the loader with the key, the key start switch 2 is closed, so that the second normally open relay 5 is closed, and the prompt message "under maintenance" is displayed on the loader instrument display 7 at this time. At the same time, because the circuit is connected, the speaker 9 emits a buzzer to remind the operator that the vehicle is under maintenance, so as to avoid accidental start of the vehicle and put the maintenance personnel in danger.

[0032] Although the above describes the specific implementation methods of the utility model in combination with the accompanying drawings, it is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the utility model. Technical personnel in the relevant field should understand that on the basis of the technical solution of the utility model, various modifications or deformations that can be made by technical personnel in this field without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the utility model.
