  • Publication number: 20260049622
    Abstract: An open and closed circuit parallel drive system and a control method based on a four-chamber hydraulic cylinder are provided. The system includes: a closed pump-controlled drive unit and an open valve-controlled drive unit. The four-chamber hydraulic cylinder is driven by the open valve-controlled drive unit with a large load power, and the operating velocity and displacement of the four-chamber hydraulic cylinder are controlled by the closed pump-controlled drive unit with a small load power, thereby improving the linearity and stability of the four-chamber hydraulic cylinder control and reducing the system installed power and throttling loss.

  • Patent number: 12055955
    Abstract: Disclosed is a flow control system for digital and mechanical redundant pressure compensation. On the basis of an original pressure compensation valve, two-position three-way electromagnetic valves are added to control the opening and closing of pressure compensation valves. Furthermore, pressure sensors and a controller are added, so that the system has a digital pressure compensation function. When the pressure sensor breaks down, the flow control system is switched to a mechanical compensation mode to achieve mechanical pressure compensation, the problem that system flow cannot be controlled when the sensor breaks down is solved, and the purpose of redundancy control is achieved. Moreover, the pressure compensation valve in the loop where the highest load is located can be controlled to be completely opened through the two-position three-way electromagnetic valve to reduce pressure loss of the valve port, and the pressure is not affected by load fluctuation.
