Abstract
Description
construction machinery
[0001] The present invention relates to a construction machine in which energy loss of working fluid due to pump operation is minimized.
[0002] Construction machinery broadly refers to all machines used in civil engineering, construction, or industrial sites. Typically, construction machinery features an engine and a hydraulic pump powered by the engine. The power generated by the engine and hydraulic pump propels the machine or drives various work devices.
[0003] For example, an excavator, a type of construction machine, performs tasks such as digging the ground in civil engineering, construction, and construction sites, loading work to transport soil, crushing work to dismantle buildings, and leveling work to prepare the ground.
[0004] An excavator is a construction machine that performs tasks such as digging the ground in civil engineering, construction, and construction sites, loading work to transport soil, crushing work to dismantle buildings, and leveling work to prepare the ground. It is composed of a driving body that acts as a moving device, an upper swivel body mounted on the driving body that rotates 360 degrees, and a work device.
[0005] Additionally, the excavator includes drive units such as a drive motor used for driving, a swing motor used for swinging the upper slewing body, and a boom cylinder, arm cylinder, bucket cylinder, and optional cylinder used for work devices. These drive units are driven by operating fluid discharged from a variable displacement hydraulic pump driven by an engine or electric motor.
[0006] The above driving devices are operated by hydraulic pressure supplied by a hydraulic pump, but this causes a problem in that unnecessary pressure loss always occurs as it passes through the TS Spool and Travel Spool.
[0007] In this case, the excavator's responsiveness deteriorates as hydraulic pressure is not immediately supplied to the driving devices, causing unnecessary energy loss, and thus a countermeasure is needed.

[0036]
[0037] A construction machine according to this embodiment will be described with reference to drawings.
[0038] Referring to the attached drawing 1, the construction machine according to the present embodiment is described as an excavator. The excavator includes a lower body for movement, a swivel body mounted on the upper side of the lower body and capable of turning, and a boom, an arm, and a bucket installed on the swivel body.
[0039] The above construction machine comprises a boom cylinder (10) for driving a boom, an arm cylinder (20) for driving an arm, a bucket cylinder (30) for driving a bucket, a swing motor (40) for swinging a swing body, a travel motor (50) for driving a lower travel body, at least one optional work cylinder (60), a main pump (100) for discharging working fluid, a hydraulic line (400) connected to the main pump (100) so that working fluid moves from the boom cylinder (10) to the optional work cylinder (60), a control valve (500) for controlling the state in which working fluid discharged from the main pump (100) is supplied and discharged from the boom cylinder (10) to the optional work cylinder (60), a make-up valve (600) connected to the main pump (100) so that working fluid moves, and working fluid discharged from the main pump (100) is discharged from the boom The hydraulic pressure is supplied directly through the hydraulic line (400) to one or more of the cylinders (10) to the optional working cylinders (60) or via the control valve (500).
[0040]
[0041] The above boom cylinder (10), arm cylinder (20), bucket cylinder (30), slewing motor (40) and optional work cylinder (60) correspond to drive devices used in an excavator.
[0042] The main pump (100) according to the present embodiment is provided to discharge operating oil to a boom cylinder (10), an arm cylinder (20), a bucket cylinder (30), a slewing motor (40), and an optional work cylinder (60) to be described later.
[0043] The above main pump (100) includes a first main pump (110) connected to the hydraulic line (400) to supply operating oil to the boom cylinder (10), a second main pump (120) provided to supply operating oil to the bucket cylinder (30) or the swing motor (40) or the travel motor (50), and a third main pump (130) provided to supply operating oil to the travel motor (50) or the arm cylinder (20) or the bucket cylinder (30) or the swing motor (40).
[0044] The first and second main pumps (100, 200) are variable capacity bidirectional pumps in which the flow rate of the discharged operating fluid is variable.
[0045] The above first main pump (110) can discharge operating oil to the boom cylinder (10) and supply it directly to the boom cylinder (10) via the boom valve (510) described later.
[0046] The first main pump (110) described above does not have a separate valve installed up to the location of the boom valve (510) through the first hydraulic line (410) among the hydraulic lines (400) described below, so that no pressure loss occurs. In this case, the operating fluid discharged by the first main pump (510) at a predetermined pressure can be supplied to the boom cylinder (10) while maintaining the initial pressure.
[0047] Accordingly, the boom cylinder (10) improves responsiveness by performing the corresponding operation immediately without any decrease in responsiveness when rapid operation is required.
[0048]
[0049] The second main pump (120) is provided to supply operating oil to the bucket cylinder (30) or the swing motor (40) or the driving motor (50), and can supply operating oil without causing pressure loss or with minimal pressure loss through the second hydraulic line (420) described later.
[0050] In this case, the operating fluid discharged by the second main pump (510) at a predetermined pressure can be supplied directly to the bucket cylinder (30) or the swing motor (40) or the driving motor (50) with the initial pressure maintained as is or can be supplied with only minimal pressure loss.
[0051] Therefore, when the above-mentioned turning motor (40) or driving motor (50) requires rapid operation, the responsiveness is improved by performing the operation immediately without any decrease in responsiveness.
[0052] The third main pump (130) above is a unidirectional pump, and its specific operating status will be described later.
[0053]
[0054] The hydraulic line (400) includes a first hydraulic line (410) connecting the boom cylinder and the first main pump (110) to each other, a second hydraulic line (420) connecting the bucket cylinder (30) and the swing motor (40) and the travel motor (50) to each other, a third hydraulic line (430) connecting the arm cylinder (20) and the bucket cylinder (30) and the travel motor (50) to each other, and a fourth hydraulic line (440) connecting the optional work cylinder (60) and the third main pump (130) to each other.
[0055] The first hydraulic line (410) above does not have a separate valve installed up to the boom valve (510) described later, so that the operating fluid discharged from the first main pump (110) can be directly moved to the boom cylinder (10) after passing through the boom valve (510). In this case, the first hydraulic line (410) has a simple movement path, its extension length can be shortened, and additionally, no junction point is generated, so that no pressure loss occurs and no energy loss occurs.
[0056] The second hydraulic line (420) includes a first branch line (422) provided for directly connecting the swing motor (40) and the second main pump (120), a second branch line (424) provided for directly connecting the bucket cylinder (30) and the second main pump (120), and a third branch line (426) provided for directly connecting the driving motor (50) and the second main pump (120).
[0057] Since the first branch line (422) is configured to be directly connected to the turning motor (40) and the second main pump (120), the initial pressure of the operating fluid discharged from the second main pump (120) is maintained and supplied directly, so that unnecessary pressure loss can be prevented.
[0058] The above second branch line (424) is provided to supply operating oil to the bucket cylinder (30) and is connected to the bucket valve (530) via the second merging valve (80) described later at at least one location.

[0062] The above-mentioned fourth branch line (432) is directly connected from the third main pump (130) to the female valve (520) connected to the female cylinder (20), so that no pressure loss occurs and no energy loss occurs.
[0063] In this case, the operating fluid discharged from the third main pump (130) can be quickly moved to the female valve (520), and no pressure loss occurs, thereby improving the responsiveness of the female valve (520).
[0064] A female bucket joining line (424a) connecting the female cylinder (20) and the bucket cylinder (30) is formed in the fourth branch line (424). The female bucket joining line (424a) is extended as shown in the drawing so that the operating fluid can move to the female cylinder (20) and the bucket cylinder (30).

[0067] When the fifth branch line (434) is connected in this way, the operating oil discharged from the third main pump (130) can be stably supplied toward the bucket cylinder (30) without pressure loss.
[0068] The above-mentioned sixth branch line (436) is provided so that the operating oil discharged from the third main pump (130) is directly supplied to the driving motor (50).
[0069] That is, the sixth branch line (436) is connected at one end so that the operating fluid moves from an extended arbitrary position of the fourth branch line (432) described above, and the other end is connected to a driving valve (550) described later, and is connected as shown in the drawing so that the operating fluid is supplied and discharged to the driving motor (50).

[0071]
[0072] The control valve (500) according to the present embodiment is provided as shown in the drawing to ensure stable supply and discharge of working oil supplied from the boom cylinder (10) to the optional working cylinder (60).
[0073]
[0074] To this end, the control valve (500) includes a boom valve (510) connected to the first hydraulic line (410) to control the operating oil supplied to the boom cylinder (10) and the operating oil discharged from the boom cylinder (10), an arm valve (520) connected to the fourth hydraulic line (440) to control the operating oil supplied to the arm cylinder (20) and the operating oil discharged from the arm cylinder (20), a bucket valve (530) connected to the second to third hydraulic lines (420, 430) to control the operating oil supplied to the bucket cylinder (30) and the operating oil discharged from the bucket cylinder (30), a swing valve (540) connected to the second to third hydraulic lines (420, 430) to control the operating oil supplied to the swing motor (40) and the operating oil discharged from the swing motor (40), and an operating oil supplied to the travel motor (50). And it includes a driving valve (550) connected to the second to third hydraulic lines (420, 430) to control the operating oil discharged from the driving motor (50), and an optional working valve (560) connected to the third hydraulic line (430) to control the operating oil supplied to the optional working cylinder (60) and the operating oil discharged from the optional working cylinder (60).
[0075]
[0076] The present embodiment is provided with a storage unit (600) for storing working fluid, and an accumulator is used for the storage unit (600). The storage unit (600) is provided with a storage unit connection line (610) connecting between the swing motor (40), and a storage unit branch line (620) connecting between the boom cylinder (10) and the storage unit connection line (610).
[0077] The above storage unit connection line (610) is connected at one end to the storage unit (600) and the other end is directly connected to the swing motor (40). The above storage unit branch line (620) is connected so that some of the operating fluid discharged from the boom cylinder (10) can move, and is also connected to the swing motor (40) so that the operating fluid can move.

[0081] The above second merging valve (80) is connected at one end to an extended arbitrary position of the above-described first branch line (422), and the other end is connected to the merging valve line (72).
[0082]

[0084] The above makeup valve (600) is operated to supplement the insufficient flow rate when a difference in the flow rate of the operating oil occurs, and the first makeup line (610) is connected to the first main pump (110) at any location.
