  • Publication number: 20140245730
    Abstract: Disclosed is a lower track for mounting rubber pads on a track shoe to be attachable and detachable after assembling a steel plate which is adhered with divisionally formed rubber pads as a single unit without additionally perforating coupling through-holes in the track shoe when the rubber pad which forms the lower track and the track shoe which is formed of a metal material are coupled. The lower track of a crawler excavator according to the present invention comprises: first and second rubber pads which are divisionally formed; a first steel plate which supports the bottom surface of the first rubber pad by surrounding the same, and has first hooks formed on the bottom surface thereof and coupling holes formed in a connection stepped-portion.

  • Patent number: 8818651
    Abstract: A flow control system for a hydraulic pump of a construction machine that can variably control a discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump in accordance with load pressure generated by a hydraulic actuator. According to the system, the discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump and the operation rate of the operation lever for the hydraulic actuators is detected, and standard load pressures of the respective hydraulic actuators are set. If the discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump is higher than preset load pressures of the hydraulic actuators, the discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump is reduced in proportion to the operation rate in accordance with degrees of loads generated by the hydraulic actuators. If the discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump is lower than the standard load pressures of the hydraulic actuators, the discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump is controlled in proportion to the operation rate.

  • Publication number: 20130228245
    Abstract: A flow control valve for a construction machine is provided, which can constantly control a flow rate of hydraulic fluid supplied to a hydraulic actuator through a flow control spool in a spool. The flow control valve for a construction machine, having a valve body in which a supply passage communicating with a pump passage and actuator ports connected to a hydraulic actuator are formed, and a spool installed in the valve body to be shifted, includes a flow control spool shifted in the spool to variably control a cross-sectional area of a passage connected to the one actuator port if a flow rate of the hydraulic fluid that flows through the supply passage is higher than a set flow rate, a first passage formed on the spool to communicate with the supply passage and a second passage formed on the spool to communication with the one actuator port and having a cross-sectional area that is varied depending on the shifting of the flow control spool.

  • Publication number: 20130160439
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to a hydraulic pressure control device of a variable displacement type hydraulic pump for construction equipment, wherein operable sections of operation systems are formed in a wide manner while the hydraulic pump discharges a relatively small flow rate compared with the operation amount of the respective operation systems in the case of complex operations, so as to improve the pressure loss and the fuel ratio of the hydraulic pump. The device includes a flow rate controller, which is preferably connected to an operation amount detecting means and a swash plate control device, and receives operation signals from the operation system of a control device that are detected by the operation amount detecting means so as to control the discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump.

  • Publication number: 20130121852
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system for controlling a hydraulic pump in a construction machine which can reduce the discharge flow of the hydraulic pump in proportion to the load pressure of the hydraulic pump to enhance operability by the driver. The present invention provides the system for controlling the hydraulic pump in the construction machine, which is characterized by detecting the discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump and the operation activity of an operation lever, and comparing the detected discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump and a predetermined pressure value, and when the detected discharge pressure exceeds the predetermined pressure value, the maximum dischargeable flow of the hydraulic pump is reduced in proportion to the difference between the detected pressure and the predetermined pressure value.

  • Publication number: 20130098021
    Abstract: A hydraulic pump control system provided in a construction machine such as an excavator is provided. According to the hydraulic pump control system, a loss of a flow rate is reduced by initially supplying hydraulic fluid as much as necessary from a hydraulic pump to a hydraulic motor in order to accelerate a swing movement of an upper frame against a lower traveling structure or to make an upper swing structure swing.
