The invention provides a hydraulic
excavator movable arm loop based on a
hydraulic transformer and a control method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of hydraulic excavators. The hydraulic
excavator movable arm loop based on the
hydraulic transformer is characterized in that a port A of the
hydraulic transformer (6) is connected with a
high voltage network (4), a first
pilot operated
check valve (10) is connected between a port B of the hydraulic
transformer (6) and a first movable arm
hydraulic cylinder (11), another first
pilot operated
check valve (10) is connected between the port B of the hydraulic
transformer (6) and a second movable arm
hydraulic cylinder (12), a second
pilot operated
check valve (13) is connected between the port A of the hydraulic
transformer (6) and the first movable arm
hydraulic cylinder (11), a third
magnetic exchange valve (15) is connected between the port A of the hydraulic transformer (6) and the second movable arm hydraulic cylinder (12), and a first
safety valve (7) is connected between the port B of the hydraulic transformer (6) and the first pilot operated check valve (10). A hydraulic transformer control
assembly (5) is controlled by a controller (19) according to an operating
handle control signal (S), a hydraulic transformer thrust plate intersection angle
signal and a hydraulic transformer rotating speed
signal to enable the movable arm to stably operate at an expected speed. The hydraulic
excavator movable arm loop based on the hydraulic transformer and the control method have the advantages of being easy to operate, high in control precision, work efficiency and
energy recovery efficiency, low in cost and free of throttling loss.
