Publication number: 20220275847Abstract: This shock absorber includes a piston main body and a piston band. The piston main body has, at an outer peripheral portion thereof, a stepped portion including a large-diameter surface portion, a stepped surface portion and a small-diameter surface portion. The piston band has, at an outer peripheral portion thereof, a large diameter portion, a medium diameter portion formed so as to have a smaller diameter than the large diameter portion, and a small diameter portion formed between the large diameter portion and the medium diameter portion so as to have a smaller diameter than the medium diameter portion, in a state before being disposed in a cylinder. At one end on the side close to a tip portion of a piston rod, an inner peripheral surface is inclined toward the piston main body side from the large-diameter surface portion to a small-diameter surface portion of the stepped portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2020Publication date: September 1, 2022Inventors: Kazuya YAMADA, Kentaro YAMADA, Reiji NAKAGAWA, Hiroyasu SATO, Sadatomo MATSUMURA, Wataru TAKAGI

Publication number: 20220049467Abstract: A battery-operated work machine is provided which can perform a work while avoiding such a situation that the work machine cannot reach charging equipment. When the remaining capacity of a battery becomes lower than a first threshold value set in advance, a controller controls an inverter such that the revolution speed of an electric motor is kept at a target revolution speed and controls a first notification device to operate, and besides switches a traveling motor to a travel first speed side, in which the displacement volume is a large volume, irrespective of an input from a traveling mode instruction device, when the remaining capacity of the battery becomes lower than a first threshold value set in advance.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 16, 2020Publication date: February 17, 2022Inventors: Yuki HIROSE, Masayuki YUNOUE, Tatsuo TAKISHITA, Wataru TAKAGI, Takuya NOMURA

Patent number: 11136743Abstract: An electric construction machine that can travel from a work site to charging equipment and prevent the lowering of the work efficiency is provided. An electric hydraulic excavator includes a motor (28) that is driven by power of a battery device (19) and drives a hydraulic pump (29), a controller (37), and a display device (24). The controller (37) computes and stores the amount of consumed power of the motor (28) consumed during the period from the departure of the hydraulic excavator from the charging equipment to arrival at the work site, based on movement information of the hydraulic excavator acquired by a movement information acquiring device. The controller (37) subtracts the amount of consumed power from the amount of stored power of the battery device (19) to compute the amount of power consumable at the work site.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2018Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: Hitachi Construction Machinery Tierra Co., LtdInventors: Takuya Nomura, Masayuki Yunoue, Wataru Takagi, Hiromu Yukawa, Yuki Yamamoto

Patent number: 8700246Abstract: An electrically-operated construction machine with a battery charging operation. A lock switch provides a closed contact when a lock lever in a cab is placed in an unlock position. A feed port is disposed outside the cab to accept a cable from a commercial power source. The feed port is provided with a charge start switch. A control device has a motor control function for driving an electric motor with electrical power of a main battery when a signal is input from the lock switch. A charge control function is for charging the main battery with electrical power of the commercial power source when dictated by the charge start switch. The lock switch is wire-connected so as not to output the signal to the control device even if the closed contact is provided by the lock switch when the control device exercises charge control.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2011Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hajime Kurikuma, Katsuyoshi Nasu, Tatsuo Takishita, Wataru Takagi
