[0117] In one example, if the operation mode is the motor recovery mode, the double-quadrant pump is controlled to rotate, the motor connected with the double-quadrant pump is controlled to rotate, and the oil in the rodless cavity is extracted to the preset hydraulic oil tank according to the target displacement.
[0118] In the second implementation of step 204, if the operation mode is the pump output mode, the double-quadrant pump is controlled to extract the oil in the preset hydraulic oil tank, and the oil is transmitted to the rodless cavity through the preset boom piston oil cylinder connected with the double-quadrant pump; if it is determined that the second pressure is less than the preset second pressure threshold, the second electronic point of the preset electromagnetic reversing valve is turned on; and according to the turned-on second electronic point, the oil in the rod cavity is controlled to flow to the oil return valve group, the radiator and the preset hydraulic oil tank in sequence; according to the oil transmitted to the rodless cavity and the operation of flowing to the hydraulic oil tank, the boom is controlled to rise.
[0119] In one example, the preset boom piston oil cylinder includes a first boom piston oil cylinder and a second boom piston oil cylinder; the rodless cavity is connected with a first inlet of the first boom piston oil cylinder and a second inlet of the second boom piston oil cylinder respectively, and a first outlet of the first boom piston oil cylinder and a second outlet of the second boom piston oil cylinder are connected with the rod cavity respectively.

[0121] Exemplarily, the working condition of the grabber part is pressing the packing block, at this time, the self-weight pressing force cannot be relied on, and the boom rod cavity needs to provide a certain pressure, the pump control structure of the rodless cavity can be controlled according to the operation mode, the valve control structure of the rod cavity can be controlled according to the second pressure, and then the boom is controlled to rise or fall.
[0122] Specifically, in the first implementation, as shown in FIG. 3, if the operation mode is the motor recovery mode, in the pump control structure, the double quadrant pump 2 is controlled to rotate, the motor 1 connected with the double quadrant pump 2 is driven to rotate, and then the oil in the rodless cavity 12 is extracted to the preset hydraulic oil tank 11, so as to achieve the effect of pump control of the boom rodless cavity. In the valve control structure, if it is determined that the second pressure is greater than the preset second pressure threshold value, it indicates that the rod cavity 13 needs to be pressurized and supplemented with oil, at this time the first electronic point of the preset electromagnetic reversing valve 4 is turned on, the series connected gear pump 3 is controlled to operate according to the turned-on first electronic point, the gear pump 3 drives the oil return valve group 7 to extract oil from the hydraulic oil tank 11, and the oil extracted is supplemented to the rod cavity 13 to prevent the rod cavity 13 from being sucked empty during overspeed drop; and the gear pump 3 generates a pressure for the rod cavity 13, which is used to press the packing block to achieve the effect of valve control of the boom rod cavity. Finally, according to the rotating motor 1, the oil supplementing operation and the pressure of the rod cavity 13, the boom is controlled to descend.
[0123] Further, if the operation mode is the motor recovery mode, a displacement signal is generated, the displacement signal includes a target displacement of the oil in the rodless cavity 12, the target displacement can be a preset displacement, or can be actually determined according to the volume of the oil in the rodless cavity 12, which is not limited. The double quadrant pump 2 is controlled to rotate, the unloading electromagnetic valve 9 is unloaded, the motor 1 connected with the double quadrant pump 2 is driven to rotate, and the oil in the rodless cavity 12 is sucked according to the target displacement, so as to prevent the double quadrant pump 2 from sucking the oil in the rodless cavity 12.
[0124] In the second implementation, as shown in FIG. 3, the preset boom piston cylinder includes a first boom piston cylinder 6.1 and a second boom piston cylinder 6.2, the rodless cavity 12 is connected with the first inlet of the first boom piston cylinder 6.1 through the first load holding valve 5.1, and connected with the second inlet of the second boom piston cylinder 6.2 through the second load holding valve 5.2, and the first outlet of the first boom piston cylinder 6.1 and the second outlet of the second boom piston cylinder 6.2 are connected with the rod cavity 13 respectively. If the operation mode is the pump output mode, in the pump control structure, based on the boom potential energy recovery principle, the double quadrant pump 2 is controlled to extract the oil in the preset hydraulic oil tank 11, and the oil is transmitted to the rodless cavity 12 through the first boom piston cylinder 6.1 and the second boom piston cylinder 6.2 connected with the double quadrant pump 2 respectively, and then the rodless cavity 12 is supplied with oil. If it is determined that the second pressure is less than the preset second pressure threshold value, the second electronic point of the preset electromagnetic reversing valve 4 is turned on, and the oil in the rod cavity 13 is controlled to flow to T1, the check valve 7.2, the check valve 7.3, the radiator and the preset hydraulic oil tank 11 in the oil return valve group 7 in turn according to the turned-on second electronic point, wherein the radiator is used for radiating the oil flowing through, and then the oil flows to the hydraulic oil tank 11. According to the operation of the oil transmitted to the rodless cavity 12 and the oil flowing to the hydraulic oil tank 11, the boom is controlled to rise, and at this time, the pressure loss is small.
[0125] For example, assuming that the action process cylinder displacement is L, the pump port pressure is P, and the cylinder rodless cavity area is A, the energy W in the lifting process is:
[0126] The ratio of the descending recovery potential energy and the rising energy consumption is the recovery efficiency Wherein, n1 is the transmission coefficient of the motor transmission to the double quadrant pump, n2 is the transmission coefficient of the motor transmission to the motor, L1 represents the initial displacement of the cylinder; L2 represents the terminal displacement of the cylinder; Wdown represents the energy in the descending process; Wup represents the energy in the rising process; i represents the cylinder displacement; Piu represents the pump port pressure corresponding to the cylinder displacement i in the rising process; Pidown represents the pump port pressure corresponding to the cylinder displacement i in the descending process; the recovery efficiency is related to the descending process pressure P.
