Abstract

Abstract For a drive system comprising a hydrostatic adjustable machine an electrical control is provided with which the actuator of the machine is driven so that for acceleration, retardation and braking, i.e. when the machine moves from motor mode to pump mode, a predetermined operating behavior of the machine necessarily results. The particular input desired value for the speed is transformed so that suddenly occurring abrupt acceleration, retardation and braking operations are avoided and in particular on abrupt entry of desired values increased safety against operating errors is achieved.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
Drive system comprising an adjustable hydrostatic machine which is connected to a pressure line and operating as motor or pump takes fluid from the pressure line or supplies fluid to said pressure line, having a directional valve for actuating the adjusting member of the hydrostatic machine for setting a rotational speed, comprising a rotational speed controller to which the speed actual value is supplied by a tachogenerator coupled to the machine and an arbitrarily settable speed desired value is supplied and which generates a control signal for driving the directional valve, characterized in that the desired value input of the speed controller (26) is preceded by a selection stage (40) to which the speed desired value and a guide signal derived from the speed actual value and lying beneath the speed actual value are supplied and that the selection stage switches the particular greater signal through to the desired value input of the speed controller.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
Drive system comprising an adjustable hydrostatic machine which is connected to a pressure line and operating as motor or pump takes fluid from the pressure line or supplies fluid to said pressure line, having a directional valve for actuating the adjusting member of the hydrostatic machine for setting a rotational speed, comprising a rotational speed controller to which the speed actual value is supplied by a tachogenerator coupled to the machine and an arbitrarily settable speed desired value is supplied and which generates a control signal for driving the directional valve, characterized in that the desired value input of the speed controller (26) is preceded by a selection stage (40) to which the speed desired value and a guide signal derived from the speed actual value and lying beneath the speed actual value are supplied and that the selection stage switches the particular greater signal through to the desired value input of the speed controller.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that the guide signal is formed in a multiplication member (50) connected to the tachogenerator.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 25 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that between the multiplication member (50) and the selection stage (40) a limiting member (51) is connected.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 39 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that the desired value input of the selection stage (40) is preceded by a limiting circuit (37, 37') by which the rate of change of the speed desired value is limited.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 38 words
Drive system according to claim 4, characterized in that for each direction of rotation of the machine a limiting member (37, 37') is provided whose outputs are connected via a summation member (38) to the selection stage (40).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 48 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that the desired value input of the selection stage (40) is preceded by a limiting circuit (9) by which in dependence upon the pressure in the pressure line (15) of the machine the set speed desired value can be varied.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
Drive system according to claim 6, characterized in that the speed desired value when the pressure drops below a predetermined pressure is reduced to a predetermined value.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 94 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that the desired value input of the speed controller (26) is preceded by a summation stage (41) to which the signal selected by the selection stage (40) and an arbitrarily settable braking signal can be supplied, that the braking signal is a signal derived from the speed actual value, lying above the speed actual value and modified by the brake pickup (55) and that the difference between the guide signal and the braking signal is supplied to the desired value input of the speed controller (26).
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 29 words
Drive system according to claim 8, characterized in that the signal supplied to the brake pickup (55) is formed in a multiplication member (60) connected to the tachogenerator (12).
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 23 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that on actuation of the brake pickup (55) the speed desired value signal is disconnected.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 33 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that the speed controller (26) is a PI controller whose I component is adapted to be disconnected at a speed actual value equal to zero.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 94 words
Drive system according to claim 1, characterized in that between the speed controller (26) and the directional valve (18) a position controller (20) is connected to which are supplied the output signal of the speed controller as desired value and as actual value the signal generated by a position pickup (22) disposed on the adjusting cylinder (17) of the machine for the control position of the latter, and that when the difference between the actual value and the desired value drops below a predetermined difference an indication of the excessive control deviation is effected.
