The energy flow in this mode is shown in FIG. Figure 4 .

[0045] 4. Energy recovery mode

The energy flow in this mode is shown in Figure 5 .

[0047] 5. Stop idle mode

The energy flow in this mode is shown in Figure 6 .

[0049] The vehicle controller 21 collects the working parameters of the loader (working parameters include vehicle speed, accelerator pedal opening (acceleration signal), brake pedal 42 opening (brake signal), load weight, hydraulic system pressure, energy storage unit 61 power, etc.), and then determines the current working condition of the loader, and then controls the operation of each system to achieve mode switching. Different operating modes are adopted for different working conditions, which can reduce the energy consumption of the engine 25, reduce emission pollution, and be more energy-saving and environmentally friendly. By setting different working modes, different working conditions can be coped with, with high work efficiency, stable power output, strong applicability, low noise level, and better operating comfort.
