  • Patent number: 11965315
    Abstract: The invention of the present application intends to provide a work machine that can ensure high operability by preventing abrupt actuation of an actuator and a shock to a machine body by use of a bleed-off function at the time of starting of the actuator and that can improve the energy-saving performance by reducing a bleed-off flow rate after the starting of the actuator. For this purpose, a controller opens a bleed-off valve at a timing at which an operation device is being operated and before a flow rate of a hydraulic pump starts increasing, and closes the bleed-off valve at a timing at which the operation device is being operated and after the flow rate of the hydraulic pump has started increasing.

  • Patent number: 11853102
    Abstract: In a remote control system (101), a terminal (121) waits for an instruction to be transmitted from a mediation device (111) by a browser, a virtual desktop, or the like. A remote controller (131) sends, to the mediation device (111), identification information that identifies the terminal (121) to be controlled and a service to be received by that terminal (121). If the terminal (121) identified by the sent identification information is waiting, the mediation device (111) transmits, to the waiting terminal (121), an instruction specifying the service identified by the sent identification information. The waiting terminal (121) sends, to a server (171) related to the service specified in the transmitted instruction, a request related to the service specified in the transmitted instruction. Note that it is possible to configure such that the server (171) provides the service after performing a confirmation that the terminal (121) that sends the request is the terminal (121) to be controlled.
