    摘要: A mower includes an engine which is a power source for a drive wheel and a mowing mechanism. A drive system for the mower includes: a first control unit that controls operation and stop of the engine; a first power transmitting mechanism that performs transmission of power between the engine and the drive wheel; a second power transmitting mechanism that performs transmission of power between the engine and the mowing mechanism; and a second control unit that controls the second power transmitting mechanism. The first control unit also controls the first power transmitting mechanism. A signal transmitter is provided which transmits a control signal between the first control unit and the second control unit.

    摘要: An energy storage and regeneration system that converts irregular, non-constant, and variable input power to regular, constant, and controlled output power using hydraulics whereby the irregular input power is used to pump hydraulic fluid into an accumulator array where it is stored pressurized. Energy is released in a controlled fashion using a hydraulic motor operated by the pressurized hydraulic fluid from the accumulator array, in accordance with the specified power demand. One or more power units may be deployed depending on the amount of energy required at the output. Each power unit includes a hydraulic motor and associated floating accumulator whose internal pressure is controlled to maintain a substantially constant pressure differential across its associated motor. The system can be integrated into various energy system sources including renewable energy such as wind, PV or thermal solar, wave, tidal, etc. as well as various types of vehicles such as cars, trucks, motorcycles, trains, boats, etc.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a hydraulic circuit for a forklift, and more particularly, to a hydraulic circuit for a forklift which is capable of preventing an engine from being stopped due to surge pressure that instantaneously occurs when a lift cylinder reaches an end stroke and thus cannot be operated any further when the lift cylinder is extended. According to the hydraulic circuit for a forklift according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, which is configured as described above, the accumulator is provided on the hydraulic line through which the working fluid is provided to the lift cylinder, and as a result, the accumulator may quickly absorb surge pressure when the surge pressure is produced in the lift cylinder or the hydraulic line.
