    摘要: A method for preventing prime mover stall for a work machine including a hydraulic system having a plurality of control valves served by a hydraulic pump. The method can include determining an actual required flow rate value for the plurality control valves and a total maximum flow rate to the plurality of control valves that will enable the prime mover to operate without stalling. The method can also include operating the plurality of control valves such that the combined total flow of the plurality control valves is at or below the total maximum flow rate such that the pump operates at a condition below which prime mover stall will occur. The method can also include setting a flow sharing allocated specific criteria in which the flow reduction takes place during a flow saturation condition for each of the plurality of control valves such that the total sum of the flow rates (calculated based on the criteria) is equal to or less than the total maximum flow rate.

    摘要: A work machine includes a vehicle body, a work implement movably connected to the vehicle body, a plurality of actuators that are connected to the work implement and change an orientation of the work implement with respect to the vehicle body, an operating device that is operable to change the orientation of the work implement, a sensor that detects the orientation of the work implement, and a controller. The controller acquires a current orientation of the work implement, determines a target orientation of the work implement corresponding to an operation of the operating device, determines respective target stroke lengths of the plurality of actuators so that the work implement assumes the target orientation from the current orientation with a combination of stroke motions of the plurality of actuators, and controls the plurality of actuators based on the target stroke lengths.

    摘要: A control valve unit includes a pilot-operated first operation valve 21 that can be operated to a first closed position at which a first oil passage 41 and a tank port 24 are disconnected from each other and a first open position at which the first oil passage 41 and the tank port 24 are connected to each other; and a pilot-operated second operation valve 22 that can be operated to a second closed position at which a second oil passage 42 and the tank port 24 are disconnected from each other and a second open position at which the second oil passage 42 and the tank port 24 are connected to each other.

    摘要: A hoist valve assembly for a work machine cylinder includes a main control valve, a counterbalance valve and a counterbalance shutoff valve. A main control valve raise position connects a head end of the cylinder with a pressurized fluid source and a rod end of the cylinder to a low pressure reservoir to extend the cylinder. The counterbalance valve is between the rod end and the main control valve, is biased to a closed position and has an open position connecting the rod end to the low pressure reservoir. Rod end and head end pressure signals apply force to the counterbalance valve toward the open position. The counterbalance shutoff valve is positioned between the head end and the counterbalance valve, and has a normal position to apply the head end pressure signal to the counterbalance valve and a shutoff position that blocks the head end pressure signal from the counterbalance valve.
