Hydraulic Driving System for Construction Machine

摘要

In a hydraulic driving system for construction machines, when track motors 3f and 3g are operated and the delivery pressure of a main pump 2 increases to a second value PS2 of the set pressure of a main relief valve 14, the set pressure of a signal pressure relief valve 16 increases from a third value PA1 to a fourth value PA2, which is smaller than the second value PS2 of the set pressure of the main relief valve 14, the difference between the second value PS2 and the fourth value PA2 being smaller than the target LS differential pressure. With such a structure, even if one of actuators reaches the stroke end and the delivery pressure of the hydraulic pump rises to the set pressure of the main relief valve, the other actuators do not stop, and further when the main relief valve is configured to increase the set pressure during operation of a specific actuator, the load pressure of the specific actuator does not increase to the increased set pressure of the main relief valve.

1. A hydraulic driving system for a construction machine, comprising:
a hydraulic pump of variable displacement type driven by a prime mover; a plurality of actuators each driven by a hydraulic fluid delivered from the hydraulic pump; a plurality of flow control valves that each control a flow rate of the hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pump to a corresponding one of the plurality of actuators; a plurality of pressure compensating valves each for controlling a differential pressure across a corresponding one of the flow control valves independently such that the differential pressure across the corresponding flow control valve equals a target compensation differential pressure; a pump control device for controlling a capacity of the hydraulic pump by load-sensing control such that a delivery pressure of the hydraulic pump becomes higher by a target differential pressure than a highest load pressure of the plurality of actuators; a main relief valve that limits a maximum pressure of the delivery pressure of the hydraulic pump; a highest load pressure detection circuit that detects a highest load pressure of the actuators and outputs the detected highest load pressure to a highest load pressure line; and a signal pressure relief valve connected to the highest load pressure line via a restrictor and configured to limit the maximum pressure of the highest load pressure introduced to a downstream side of the restrictor, to a pressure lower than a set pressure of the main relief valve; wherein, the pump control device receives a differential pressure between the delivery pressure of the hydraulic pump and the highest load pressure in the downstream side of the restrictor and the pump control device controls the capacity of the hydraulic pump such that the differential pressure equals the target differential pressure for the load-sensing control, while the differential pressure between the delivery pressure of the hydraulic pump and the highest load pressure in the downstream side of the restrictor is introduced into the plurality of pressure compensating valves as the target compensation differential pressure; and wherein: the main relief valve is configured such that
when a specific actuator of the plurality of actuators is not actuated, the set pressure of the main relief valve is remained at a first value, andwhen the specific actuator is actuated, the set pressure of the main relief valve increases from the first value to a second value larger than the first value; and the signal pressure relief valve is configured such that
when the specific actuator is not actuated and the set pressure of the main relief valve is remained at the first value, the set pressure of the signal pressure relief valve is remained at a third value smaller than the first value of the set pressure of the main relief valve,when the specific actuator is actuated and the set pressure of the main relief valve increases to the second value, the set pressure of the signal pressure relief valve increases from the third value to a fourth value smaller than the second value of the set pressure of the main relief valve, the first to forth values being set such that a difference between the first value of the set pressure of the main relief valve and the third value of the set pressure of the signal pressure relief valve and a difference between the second value of the set pressure of the main relief valve and the fourth value of the set pressure of the signal pressure relief valve are both smaller than the target differential pressure for the load-sensing control.
