  • Publication number: 20170037825
    Abstract: An ISG control system for construction equipment for implementing an ISG (Idle Stop and Go) system under a work standby situation of the construction equipment and a control method thereof are disclosed. The ISG control system provides a switching function between an auto idle mode and an ISG mode by an operator's selection or under a specific condition when the work of the construction equipment is in a standby state. Further, the ISG control system controls a stop and a restart of an engine through sensing of the existence of corresponding work equipment within a predetermined range, and controls the stop and the restart of the engine through sensing of an operator's operation and gesture. After the engine stop, the ISG control system continuously senses the state of the equipment and provides a switching function to a low idle mode having a low RPM at a time when performance of a primary work is expected.

  • Patent number: 9522445
    Abstract: A caulking method for preventing a piston from being loosened in a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder. The method includes forming a screw hole and a mutual screw engagement portion of a cylinder rod and a piston, and fasteningly engaging a set screw with the screw hole. The method also includes pressing a remaining space portion of the screw hole in an engagement direction of the set screw using a press mechanism after fasteningly engaging the set screw with the screw hole to change a pitch of a screw thread of an inlet portion of the screw hole.

  • Patent number: 8640600
    Abstract: A hydraulic cylinder cushion device installed in a hydraulic cylinder provided, in which a rod performs reciprocating movement in a cylinder tube, and which discharges high-pressure hydraulic fluid that is formed in pressure chambers between a piston and a head cover and between the piston and a cover end during a stroke-end operation. The hydraulic cylinder cushion device includes a check ring which is installed in a groove provided on an inner surface of the head cover or the cover end, and moves to one side in the groove so as to close a flow path during rushing into a stroke end while it moves to the other side in the groove so as to open the flow path during an initial operation in the stroke end.
