Publication number: 20130342340Abstract: Disclosed is a display device 5 for a work machine having an engine 9, a hydraulic pump 10 driven by the engine, a boom cylinder 3d, an arm cylinder 3e, a bucket cylinder 3f, and other actuators driven by a hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pump 10, and an operating device 6 for operating the actuators 3d, 3e, 3f. The display device 5 includes an idle state display section 50a for displaying an engine revolution speed N as no-manipulation period operating state information which is related to an engine load that is imposed while the operating device 6 is not manipulated. This makes it possible to inform an operator of the status of the engine load in an idle state for the purpose of prompting the operator to transition into a fuel-efficient state.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2012Publication date: December 26, 2013Applicant: HITACHI CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY CO., LTD.Inventors: Shinji Nishikawa, Kouji Ishikawa, Takatoshi Ooki, Keiichiro Nakamura

Publication number: 20130312616Abstract: An exhaust purification system for a working machine reliably issues filter regeneration warnings to the operator, prompting manual regeneration, so that damage to the DPF device can be avoided. When a PM estimate becomes higher than a given value, a screen displays a warning message prompting manual regeneration. If the warning message fails to prompt the operator to perform manual regeneration and reference time t1 has passed since the display of the warning message, a speaker outputs a first warning sound. When the operator notices the first warning sound and turns on a regeneration switch, regeneration control is started. If the operator fails to notice the first warning sound and reference time t2 passes, the speaker instead outputs a second warning sound louder than the first warning sound. When the operator notices the second warning sound and turns on the regeneration switch, regeneration control is started.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2012Publication date: November 28, 2013Applicant: HITACHI CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY CO., LTD.Inventors: Kazuhiro Shibamori, Yutaka Watanabe, Hidenobu Tsukada, Keiichiro Nakamura, Akira Kimura, Yuuki Gotou, Kouta Fujieda

Publication number: 20130176120Abstract: A display system for a working machine displays basic information at all times and, in case of an abnormality, displays the details of the warning in addition to the basic information to enable an operator to reliably recognize details of the warning. For example, a first warning display function, upon receiving an abnormality information signal relating to a charge warning, displays an appropriate warning icon in a warning icon display region. A simplified basic-information display function, then displays simplified basic-information images and a second warning display function displays, in a free area of the display, a second warning message inclusive of a “Charge warning” message as display details of the warning icon, and of character information relating to a simplified remedial action. The operator can then reliably recognize the “Charge warning” and understand its details as well, by viewing the second warning message in addition to the warning icon.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2011Publication date: July 11, 2013Applicant: HITACHI CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY CO., LTD.Inventors: Kazuhiro Shibamori, Yutaka Watanabe, Hidenobu Tsukada, Keiichiro Nakamura, Yuuki Gotou, Kouta Fujieda

Publication number: 20130169690Abstract: A display system for a working machine displays warning information while also displaying a high-quality camera image. The display redisplays a reduced camera image at a reduction scale of 60% according to an abnormality information signal. An open area 44 outside the area displaying the camera image. The display control device displays a warning icon (large size), corresponding to abnormality information regarding a filter of a DPF device, in the open area. The operator recognizes the warning and immediately stops the operation, moves to a place where the filter regeneration is possible while checking the safety of the surroundings by viewing the camera image, and then carries out the filter regeneration. After finishing, the operator confirms that the warning icon has disappeared, moves to the site of the operation while checking the safety of the surroundings by viewing the camera image (for normal times), and then restarts the operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2011Publication date: July 4, 2013Applicant: HITACHI CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY CO., LTD.Inventors: Yuuki Gotou, Kazuhiro Shibamori, Keiichiro Nakamura, Hidenobu Tsukada, Kouta Fujieda

Patent number: 7657841Abstract: A display device for a construction machine has a display switching means, output control means, operation detecting means, and display prohibiting means. The display switching means switches information displayed on a monitor placed in an operation cabin, where the switching is made to prevent display of unnecessary information on the monitor while the construction machine is performing work. The output control means selects display information recorded in information recording means and outputs the selected information to the monitor. The operation detecting means detects whether or not the construction machine is in a working state. When the operation detecting means detects that the construction machine is in the working state, display switching operation of the monitor is performed by the display switching means, and the display prohibiting means prohibits the display of specific information.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2005Date of Patent: February 2, 2010Assignee: Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kazuhiro Shibamori, Keiichiro Nakamura, Tsuyoshi Sakyo, Kazunori Nakamura, Tadatoshi Shimamura, Genroku Sugiyama

Patent number: 5907122Abstract: A gas insulated electrical apparatus in which electric devices for three phases are housed within a common gas-filled vessel includes a first and a second curved wall spaced apart from each other by a first distance and a third and a fourth curved wall connected between the first and second curved walls and spaced apart from each other by a second distance smaller than the first distance to define a substantially oval cross-sectional shape. The electric devices are arranged in a row extending between the first and second walls. The first and second curved walls may have a first radius of curvature and the third and fourth curved walls may have a second radius of curvature larger than the first radius of curvature.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 1997Date of Patent: May 25, 1999Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Keiichiro Nakamura, Hiroki Sanuki, Takahide Watanabe, Masazumi Yamamoto
