  • Publication number: 20220098831
    Abstract: A hydraulic excavator drive system includes a regeneration line, which connects an arm pushing and an arm crowding supply line, each of which extends between an arm cylinder and arm control valve. The regeneration line includes regeneration and switching valves. A release line that is branched off from the regeneration line at a position between the regeneration valve and the switching valve is provided with a release valve. A secondary pressure from a first solenoid proportional valve is fed to a pilot port of the regeneration valve such that the regeneration valve opens at a time of arm crowding. A secondary pressure from a second solenoid proportional valve is fed to a pilot port of the release valve such that release valve opens at a time of arm pushing. An arm pushing pilot pressure for moving the arm control valve is led to a pilot port of the switching valve.

  • Publication number: 20220010820
    Abstract: A hydraulic drive system includes: a first hydraulic pump of the variable capacitance type; a first regulator including a first proportional valve; a second hydraulic pump that dispenses operating oil; a switch valve; a control device; and a malfunction detection device. The switch valve can switch to a third valve position in which the switch valve allows the operating oil dispensed from both the first hydraulic pump and the second hydraulic pump to be supplied to first and second traveling hydraulic motors and first and second hydraulic actuators. The control device controls the operation of the first proportional valve by outputting a first flow rate command signal to the first proportional valve, and when the malfunction detection device detects a malfunction of an electrical system related to the first proportional valve, the control device switches the switch valve to the third valve position.

  • Publication number: 20210381532
    Abstract: A hydraulic drive system raises and lowers an object by supplying and discharging operating oil to and from two ports of an actuator and includes a control device, first to fifth electromagnetic proportional control valves, first and second hydraulic pumps, a first and second control valve, and a lock valve. When a fourth pilot pressure is output, the second control valve causes the operating oil to be discharged from a first port in order to lower the object. The lock valve prevents the operating oil from being discharged from the first port by closing a path between the first port and the second control valve, and when a fifth pilot pressure is output from the fifth electromagnetic proportional control valve per an operating device, discharges the operating oil from the first port by opening the path between the first port and the second control valve, to lower the object.

  • Patent number: 5676363
    Abstract: In an image printing operation, advance sheet feeding is performed if the size of a recording medium is known upon feeding at least one sheet of the recording medium. To the contrary, advance sheet feeding is not performed if the size of a recording medium is not known, for example, immediately after a power supply has been turned on or after a new supply of recording medium has been placed in a sheet feeding unit.

  • Patent number: 5619307
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus and method which allow a service engineer to accurately analyze the situation of a printer and specify a failure when he or she arrives at the place where the printer is installed. A computer predicts a failure from the status information of a printer, and transmits a test pattern corresponding to the failure to the printer via a controller. The computer then outputs an indication of print out. The service engineer can accurately analyze the failure because the test pattern has already been printed out upon occurrence of the failure.
