Abstract

Abstract A control device for a hydrostatic drive for at least two actuators having a variable displacement pump whose adjusting device can be acted on as a function of the displacement and/or of the delivery pressure, wherein a control valve is associated with each actuator in its hydraulic supply line and the delivery flow for each actuator is determined by means of a pressure compensator as a function of the valve preset at the control valve, is simplified while ensuring accurate control. This is achieved by having the adjusting device always set the pump at a displacement which is slightly less than the sum of the actual instantaneous volume flows required by the actuators.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
A control device for a hydrostatic drive for at least two actuators having a variable displacement pump whose adjusting device can be acted on as a function of the displacement or of the delivery pressure, a control valve being associated with each actuator in a hydraulic supply line thereof, pressure compensators for determining the delivery flow for each said actuator as a function of a value preset at the control valve, said pressure compensators being connected in parallel such that the same operating pressure acts thereon, the adjustment device always setting the pump at the displacement which is less than the sum of the actual instantaneous volume flow required by the actuators.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 112 words
A control device for a hydrostatic drive for at least two actuators having a variable displacement pump whose adjusting device can be acted on as a function of the displacement or of the delivery pressure, a control valve being associated with each actuator in a hydraulic supply line thereof, pressure compensators for determining the delivery flow for each said actuator as a function of a value preset at the control valve, said pressure compensators being connected in parallel such that the same operating pressure acts thereon, the adjustment device always setting the pump at the displacement which is less than the sum of the actual instantaneous volume flow required by the actuators.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
A control device according to claim 1, wherein the adjustment device has an adjustment member operating associated therewith and which is controlled as a function of the setting of the control control valves.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A control device according to claim 2, wherein the adjusting member is an electro-hydraulic proportional valve.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A control device according to claim 2, wherein an electronic control device is operatively connected with the control valves and the adjusting member.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 15 words
A control device according to claim 1, wherein the control valves are electromagnetic proportional valves.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 20 words
A control device according to claim 1, wherein the control valves are pilot valves acted on by an auxiliary pressure.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 37 words
A control device according to claim 1, said pump being driven by an internal combustion engine, wherein the maximum load control of the drive is included in the control device as an output control of the drive.
