13 1 Introduction 1 Introduction 1.1 Excavator Swing Drive An excavator is an engineering vehicle used for earth moving, demolition, heavy lifting or material handling. It consists of an undercarriage with wheels or tracks and a pivoting upper platform with an articulated arm to perform the work. The arm can be attached with various attachements depending on the purpose. The rotating movement is called swing or slew and is driven hydraulically. The power source of the excavator is normally a diesel engine that drives one or many hydraulic pumps. The pumps supply oil flow to the hydraulic system that actuates the different work functions together with the drive transmission. The swing drive is hence driven by a hydraulic motor creating a rotating motion. The excavator can rotate 360 an infinitely number of times but normally operates within a specific working cycle. When used for earth moving, a typical duty cycle is to dig at one position, rotate a certain angle, dump the load in a dumper and slew back. Figure 1: Excavator swing/slew drive Karl Pettersson 12
14 1 Introduction 1.2 State-of-the-Art The hydraulic systems of wheel excavators and smaller crawler excavators today are normally Closed-centre Load-Sensing systems. The swing drive is connected parallel to the other working hydraulics. One or multiple pumps supply oil flow to every actuator in an open loop circuit. Each function, including the slew drive, is valve controlled often with hydraulic compensators making the speed proportional to the throttled area. The swing drive often uses a fixed hydraulic motor which is controlled from a proportional valve. When moving the control valve to one side, oil flow through the created orifice and gives the fixed motor a certain speed. The pump is pressure controlled to meet the highest load. Figure 2: Crawler excavator In heavier excavators, Open-centre systems have traditionally been more common partly because of its simplicity. This applies to some extent also today, specifically in crawler excavators with an operational weight over 20 tons. Open-centre refers to the middle position of the control spool valve which is active during zero joystick signal, causing the flow to be directed to the reservoir. The pump is controlled to match the spool positions, swivelling out following a joystick movement. To the operator this Karl Pettersson 13
15 1 Introduction system will feel different depending on the load. A heavier load will be noticed by the operator since pressure needs to be built up for a longer time hence the joysticks output will feel different. This is also a reason why open-centre systems still is frequently employed in larger excavators. Another feature is the separate circuit for the slew drive consisting of a closed loop hydrostatic transmission (HST). The swing can now be controlled without valves and consequently with less throttling losses. The primary unit is speed controlled producing a certain flow by swivelling out according to the joystick signal. The motor can either be fixed or variable and achieves an output speed depending on its displacement. Separation of the slew gear from the working hydraulics also prevents mutual influences in the case of parallel movements. This type of system is also common in heavier excavators where the loads are so high that additional pumps are needed nonetheless [8]. 1.3 History of Secondary Control The principle of Secondary Control was first patented in England in 1962 by the engineers Pearson and Burret. The basic idea was a speed controlled hydraulic motor working in a constant pressure system. This was achieved by adjustment of the displacement volume of the motor with a hydraulic tachometer attached to the axle of the motor. At this time was though the technology not sufficiently advanced to control the high dynamics of the system why it would not be further developed the idea was also born in the Army University of Hamburg independent of the earlier patent. A cooperation with Mannesmann Rexroth made it possible to initiate tests and eventually simulate different concepts of secondary controlled systems. Experiments were made with different types of controllers, motors and also with both a hydraulic and an electric tachometer for the velocity feedback. The cooperation ended in 1986, but at that time several orders had already been booked from the industry. In 1992 a patent application was accepted from Mannesmann Rexroth for the combination of an electrical tachometer and an electrical swivel angle feedback. As designed, the secondary control principle was consequently protected for the company until the year 2000 [3]. During this time, secondary control in the industry became more common, but only used in certain extreme applications. The advantages compared to a normal hydrostatic drive with primary control were mainly [3]: Karl Pettersson 14
16 1 Introduction Higher efficiency Higher dynamic response Energy recuperation Better accuracy in speed, torque and positioning The disadvantages involve: Higher costs More electronics and increased complexity Control problems In the early stages of secondary control described above, the problems with a stable control were the main factors for holding the interest back. Solving those problems, as the electronics developed, the advantages were still not sufficient to convince the industry. The energy issue was not as big as it is today and the lower fuel consumption could not yet make up for the higher costs. Electronically controlled devices were not trusted and one put a value of having a completely hydraulic drive. This is why the last advantage often was the decisive one when choosing in favour of a secondary controlled system. In applications demanding high precision positioning with high loads, secondary control is superior to a standard hydrostatic transmission. One example is an automated transport vehicle used when transporting containers in a harbour. The vehicles are without drivers and uses a secondary controlled drive transmission that can position the transport within 20 mm [3]. The application can be seen in Figure 3. Figure 3: The AGV transports carrying containers in a harbour Today secondary control is well known within the industry but is still not commonly used. The above mentioned explanations still apply today, however with increasing Karl Pettersson 15
17 1 Introduction fuel prices and decreased costs for advanced electronic components the system gets interesting in more and more applications. In mobile machinery high loads are moved in cyclic motions which are ideal conditions for energy recuperation systems. Karl Pettersson 16
18 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive 2.1 Basic Principle A conventional closed circuit hydrostatic transmission consists of a hydraulic pump with variable displacement and a hydraulic motor with fixed displacement. By varying the displacement of the pump a flow is created in the circuit. The flow causes the motor to turn and a certain speed is acquired depending on its displacement. The flow is hence always proportional to the speed of the motor: n m = 1000η volm q m V gm (2.1) If the driven load increases the system will respond with raising the pressure in the circuit so that the new torque demand is met: T m = V gm pη hmm 20π (2.2) Figure 4: Principle of a traditional hydrostatic drive In a secondary controlled system, one or more speed controlled actuators are connected in parallel. A hydraulic primary unit keeps a constant pressure level in the energy line of the circuit. Karl Pettersson 17
19 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 5: Secondary controlled system with a hydraulic motor as secondary unit The secondary unit is variable and can work as both pump and motor. It must be able to be controlled over centre allowing positive and negative torque in any speed directions. This is commonly refered to as four quadrant operation. The output torque is directly proportional to the displacement of the secondary unit since the pressure is kept constant: T m = V gmmax α m p η hmm 20π (2.3) When increasing the swivel angle the flow requirement raises according to: q m = V gmmax α m n m 1000η volm (2.4) Putting (2.3) and (2.4) together: q m = 20πT m n m 1000 p η hmm η volm (2.5) With a constant pressure difference comes that: q m T m n m (2.6) We now have the unusual relationship that a change in torque produces a certain change in flow. A constant speed without any load torque would hence produce zero flow. Such a relationship makes the secondary controlled hydrostatic transmission (SCHT) particularly energy efficient since the load can move at high speeds without necessarily having big flow losses. The secondary unit is speed controlled, meaning that a reference speed affects the displacement so that the speed is always kept. An Karl Pettersson 18
20 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive increased load will hence make the secondary unit respond in a higher swivel angle to create an equal torque and keep the reference speed. When using a conventional HST, a change in torque will cause the oil column in the circuit to compress or expand. This triggers a hydraulic spring effect which may have a great impact on the system stability. Increased control time of the pump have a damping effect which keeps the system under control, but makes it dynamically slower [3]. A corresponding change of torque makes the SCHT react with a change in swivel angle. The new torque demand is directly met and no hydraulic spring effect will occur since the secondary unit is acting in a constant pressure. When lowering a load or braking an inertia, the secondary unit starts acting as a pump effectively generating flow from the negative load torque. The swivel angle is controlled over centre and the flow is directed back into the energy line. The corresponding recovered energy can be used to other parallel functions, stored in the accumulator or directed back to the energy source. 2.2 Circuit Architecture Similar to traditional hydrostatic transmissions, a secondary controlled system can be used in either open or closed circuits. The difference is mainly whether the pump suction comes from the reservoir or directly from the motor. Four quadrant operation without control valves is possible in both cases. When braking, the secondary unit starts acting as a pump and delivers flow from the low pressure side back to the accumulator on the high pressure side Open Circuit An open circuit system needs the reservoir to be either pressurised or mounted higher than the pump to avoid cavitation. The low pressure side can also be pressurised with an auxiliary pump in a so called pre-fill operation. The filling pump must then be big enough to produce the maximum flow of the secondary unit. Karl Pettersson 19
21 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 6: Secondary controlled system in open circuit The secondary unit must be constructed with a large suction port to work in an open circuit. Since the high pressure (HP) side never changes in the open circuit four quadrant operation is demanded from the secondary unit. An axial piston machine that swivels over centre is able to to this. Bent-axis machines swivelling over centre are normally large and expensive why a swashplate design would be the best option. The Rexroth A4VSO pump (Figure 7) is a suitable secondary unit which meets the above requirements. Figure 7: The Bosch Rexroth A4VSO pump The primary unit has almost the same requirements, even though negative swivel angles only would be used to unload the diesel engine. When braking, the reversed flow is loading the accumulator, making the kinetic energy available for reuse. Since the primary unit is working as a pump in a constant pressure system, no negative swivel angles are required. The Rexroth A11VO (Figure 8)is a swashplate pump suitable for this concept. The A4VSO is also possible to use as primary unit if unloading the diesel engine is necessary. Further discussions regarding this is made in Chapter Karl Pettersson 20
22 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 8: The Bosch Rexroth A11VO pump Closed Circuit The closed circuit transmission has a direct connection between the low pressure side of the primary and the secondary unit. According to this, the same amount of oil will always circulate between the high and the low pressure side. With energy recuperation in forms of a hydraulic accumulator this cannot be the case. Depending on the movements performed, the accumulator will contain different volumes of oil and a problem arises of how to keep the balance of oil volume in the circuit. For an increasing volume in the accumulator the same amount needs to be inserted to the low pressure side and vice versa. The use of an additional accumulator on the low pressure side is the standard way for covering the lack of oil volume. This accumulator will of course have lower pressure levels but should be able to store the same amount of oil. Figure 9 shows the SCHT in closed circuit: Figure 9: Secondary controlled system in closed circuit Karl Pettersson 21
23 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Another way to resupply oil flow into the circuit is to use the information of how much is going in to the HP accumulator and distribute the same amount to the LP side. This can be done hydraulically according to Figure 10. Figure 10: Secondary controlled system with volume equaliser The motor (1) under the accumulator rotates proportionally to the flow. Depending on whether the accumulator is loading or unloading, the flow from the pump (2) goes out of or into the low pressure side, keeping the oil volume in the circuit constant. The pump displacement should be of somewhat similar size as the motor to create the same flow in both directions. This is to handle both quick acceleration and quick braking. The A4VG is the closed circuit version of the A4VSO and is suitable to use as the secondary unit. The option of unloading the diesel engine or not still remains, but the A4VG is in both cases the most cost effective alternative to use as the primary unit. Figure 11: The Bosch Rexroth A4VG pump Karl Pettersson 22
24 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Secondary Unit in Bent-axis Design A bent-axis motor is normally a better option to use as a motor because of its good starting efficiency. Bent-axis motors with the possibility of swivelling over centre are however not as common anymore. The heavy housing and difficulties to control makes it unfavourable and also expensive to use. Although there is a possibility of using a motor in bent-axis design combined with switching valves. This eliminates the need of negative swivel angles. The high and low pressure sides are here switched depending on which direction the motor is turning so that four quadrant operation is possible. The circuit architecture can be both open and closed. However does this system imply additional components, throttling losses and demands a precise control of the switching valves to avoid pressure peaks. For these reasons this concept is not further investigated in this thesis, but could however be interesting in future investigations. 2.3 Emergency Brake Concepts Switching from a traditional HST to a secondary controlled system will most probably mean switching the hydraulic motor. An electrically controlled motor with variable displacement over centre is now required which would not be the case in a conventional transmission. This is however not done without complications regarding safety issues during system breakdown. Three different failures of the system are considered: Electrical breakdown Loss of hydraulic pressure Diesel engine stop Requirements regarding emergency stops for earth moving machinery are regulated by European Union norms handling earth moving machinery. The corresponding german norm is called DIN EN 474. Part 5 of this norm handles hydraulic excavators and states safety regulations regarding the swing drive. During a breakdown should the top frame of the excavator be able to stop the rotational motion within a certain angle depending on the angular speed. An extract is displayed in Appendix A and shows this relationship in the figure called Bild C.1. The emergency brake in conventional drives do not face the same difficulties as in the SCHT. In a conventional closed circuit HST, the motor is fixed or variable with α mmin > 0. A breakdown would automatically block the flow from the pump side. A positive swivel angle causes the motor to still produce flow. Pressure is built up Karl Pettersson 23
25 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive and a braking torque will eventually be created according to (2.3). Depending on the direction of the speed one of the sides will have high pressure and a braking torque is always created due to this. A valve controlled drive would have control valves separating the pump and motor sides. When a breakdown occurs the motor is isolated from the energy line and flow is blocked in the same way. In the secondary controlled system the motor is controlled over-centre, enabling negative swivel angles. A loss of electrical control would set the swivel angle of the motor to zero since the stroke cylinder of the control unit seeks its equilibrium position. With zero swivel angle and hence zero torque, the load can rotate freely even though flow is blocked from the pump according to (2.6). A breakdown in the secondary controlled system must consequently be handled differently from the traditional hydraulic systems. A separate emergency brake has to be installed that is not electrically activated since the brake also has to work during an electrical breakdown. An emergency braking procedure can either be done by a hydraulically controlled mechanical brake or by letting the hydraulic motor create a braking torque. When a failure occurs, the circuit goes into a failure mode which ensures braking independently of the type of emergency. Recognising that a failure has occurred is of course done in different ways depending on what has happened. Loss of electric control can easily be done by using an electrically controlled spool valve which switches position when current is lost. A hydraulic pressure is then activated and failure mode is reached. Recognising a loss of pressure and a stop of the diesel engine can hence be done electrically and thus activate the same failure mode Mechanical Brake The principle with a mechanical brake is the simplest one. The valve for recognising failure mode is connected to a mechanical disk brake at the axle of the secondary unit. At a failure the valve would automatically block the flow and the mechanical brake would be activated. This concept needs no throttling and very few components, however could the mechanical brake have problems braking a big inertia as the top frame of an excavator. This would cause the dimensions of the brake and consequently the price to go up. Another problem is that a mechanical brake would wear each time it is used and would have to be replaced after a certain number of times. Such a system is hard for a manufacturer to sell and for these reasons this solution is not further examined in this thesis. Karl Pettersson 24
26 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 12: Principle with mechanical emergency brake Two Directions Hydraulic Brake The hydraulic emergency brake is achieved by control of the swivel angle, since the torque is proportional to the displacement of the secondary unit. One option is to determine the direction of the angular speed and choose according to this how the swivel angle should be controlled. No sensors and electronics can be used to achieve this since the brake has to be operational when electric control is lost. A certain swivel angle is however not enough to be sure to brake the motion, a pressure difference over the motor is also necessary. A hose break would cause a loss of pressure in the circuit and the secondary unit would not be able to create a torque to brake. Since the emergency brake is able to be controlled in both directions it is enough to block the high pressure (HP) side of the transmission to be sure that a braking torque can be accomplished. This means that only one side of the secondary unit must be able to be pressure resistant One Direction Hydraulic Brake Another option is to always control the swivel angle to the same direction when a failure occurs. Now both sides have to be blocked and dependent of the angular speed one of the sides will have the high pressure. The emergency brake will now act as described for the HST. It is now necessary for the secondary unit to be pressure resistant on both sides. This fact excludes the use of the one direction emergency brake in an open circuit architecture. Karl Pettersson 25
27 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive 2.4 Control Units The control unit refers to the configuration of how the swivel angle of the hydraulic machine is controlled. This is important to consider in the SCHT due to the need of influence from the emergency brake circuit. The swivel angle of a hydraulic machine in swashplate design is normally controlled by a control valve and a stroke cylinder as shown in Figure 13. Figure 13: Principle of swivel angle control for swashplate hydraulic machines The control valve (1) affects the position of the stroke cylinder (2) and is normally supplied by the pilot pressure in the circuit. The link between the valve and the piston is a mechanical feedback (3) which moves the positions of the pressure ports to the valve. The swashplate is always affected when pressure rises in the machine and the mechanical feedback counteracts this movement. This is not a standard in all control units but it helps controlling the swashplate to its reference position. The control valve can either be controlled by electrical solenoids or by hydraulic pressures. The complex control algorithms in secondary control are however done electrically and an electrical controller is therefore a necessity. The option of having hydraulic pressures affect the control valve must therefore be modified. An electrical signal has to be transformed to pressures in the control lines. This can be achieved by using electrically controlled pressure reducers in the control lines as shown in Figure 14. Each pressure reducing valve sets a certain pressure in the line corresponding to the electrical signal. Karl Pettersson 26
28 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 14: Principle with electric pressure reducers in the pressure lines Overviewing the Rexroth control units the following options are available in their standard versions EP Control The EP controller is the most straightforward option where the control signal directly can be taken in as electric currents. It uses proportional solenoids to move the control valve and each solenoid is assigned to one direction of flow to the cylinder. Figure 15 shows the standard version of the EP controller for A4VG and Figure 16 its characteristics. Figure 15: Standard version of the EP control unit for A4VG (extract from [1]) Karl Pettersson 27
29 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 16: Characteristics of the EP control unit (extract from [1]) The ports X1 and X2 are suitable to connect to the emergency brake circuit. At a loss of electric control the control valve would seek its middle position and the swivel angle go towards zero. A pressure rise in one of the ports would push the stroke cylinder to the other direction according to earlier discussions. The mechanical feedback is however still active, moving the pressure ports so that pilot pressure is connected to the other side and the pressurised side is connected with the reservoir. The described process is displayed in Figure 17. Figure 17: The EP control unit when affected by an external pressure The feedback counteracts the emergency brake and a certain oil flow is now needed to keep the swivel angle at maximum. Since the pilot pressure is external, it is always possible to cut it off at a failure mode. This would stop the pilot pressure to push the stroke cylinder back when affected. The connection to the reservoir is however not possible to affect without modifying the control unit. Consequently would the emergency pressure be more connected to the tank line as the stroke cylinder moves. Springs acting to keep the cylinder centred create forces that have to be overcome by Karl Pettersson 28
30 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive the emergency pressure. An emergency brake circuit will accordingly have to produce a certain flow and pressure to keep the swivel angle at maximum. The flow will be dependent of the orifice area of the tank port and the actual produced flow of the emergency brake circuit will affect how high value the swivel angle can reach statically. These are of course dimensioning issues with regards to how fast the emergency brake needs to be. The fact remains however that using an EP controller, the mechanical feedback will work against the installed emergency brake ED Control The above mentioned problems are avoided when a mechanical feedback not is used. The ED control is another version of the EP, but without the mechanical feedback. This will cause a nonlinear relationship between the swivel angle and the control signal depending on the pressure in the machine. Driving the load forward will now feel "heavier" the higher the load is. This is however not a preferable behaviour even though an emergency brake circuit will be easier to implement. The emergency pressure can now push the stroke cylinder without being connected to the reservoir as the cylinder moves. The demanded flow now only needs to cover the lost oil volume through the orifice in the middle position. A secondary unit would however preferably have a mechanical feedback in the control unit if possible and the designed concept will focus on principles using this feature HD Control Hydraulic control uses hydraulic pressures to control the control valve instead of electric currents. Figure 18: Standard version of the HD control unit for A4VG (extract from [1]) Karl Pettersson 29
31 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 19: Characteristics of the HD control unit (extract from [1]) The pressure in the two control lines Y1 and Y2 are linear to the position of the stroke cylinder, each pressure line handles one direction. The electric pressure reducers shown in Figure 14 have to be adapted according to this relationship. The mechanical feedback is also in use, but with the emergency brake is now no longer counteracted. The emergency brake circuit can now be connected directly to the control lines (Y1 and Y2) instead of acting on the stroke cylinder (X1 and X2). An emergency brake acting on the HD controller will affect the stroke cylinder according to Figure 20. Figure 20: The HD control unit when affected by an external pressure Emergency brake pressure will push the control valve so that the supplied pilot pressure is connected with one side of the stroke cylinder. The mechanical feedback will move the ports according to the movement of the cylinder making the middle position active statically. The stroke cylinder moves consequently according to the principle in the Karl Pettersson 30
32 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive normal mode, using the pilot pressure. One difference is that a failure mode now also has to ensure that pilot pressure is not lost DG Control Direct operated hydraulic control has the control pressures directly acting on the stroke cylinder. Figure 21: Standard version of the DG control unit for A4VG (extract from [1]) In this case electrically controlled pressure reducers would have to be used as done with the HD control. Emergency brake is applied via valves in X1 and X2 and without mechanical feedback the only flow required will be the leakage flow in the cylinder. This is the least demanding control principle to the emergency brake circuit. No position feedback exists however to control the swivel angle which creates similar problems as with the ED controller Modified Control Unit A modified control unit can also be an option when adapting the controller to the emergency brake circuit. For example could different pressure ports be installed, directly to the stroke cylinder. This would be suitable for the EP controller to lower the flow demand at a failure mode. However will modified control units imply additional costs and the concepts designed in this thesis have been focused on using existing components. Karl Pettersson 31
33 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive 2.5 Safety Concept Design Focusing primarily on the use of a mechanical feedback in the control unit, two control units are available: EP and HD. With the two types of emergency brakes, four different emergency brake circuits are possible. Table 1: Matrix of options for emergency brake and control unit Emergency Brake Control EP1W EP2W Unit HD1W HD2W The designed schematics for each concept is described below EP 1-Way Figure 22: Designed safety concept with EP control unit and 1-Way emergency brake In normal mode, the spool valves (1) and (2) are held down by the electrical solenoids counteracting the spring force. During a loss of electric control the spring side will automatically be activated and failure mode will be entered. A pressure loss or a stop of diesel engine are recognised in other ways. When such a failure occurs the valves Karl Pettersson 32
34 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive should also be switched so that all types of breakdowns activates the same failure mode. Entering into failure mode, the first valve (1) cuts off pilot pressure to the EP controller and in the same time opens the way to the stroke cylinder. The stroke cylinder always moves in the same direction independently of the direction of the speed according to Chapter The secondary unit will hence swivel out and pump flow to one of the sides depending on the direction of the speed. The other spool valve (2) allows high pressure to push down the cartridge valves (3) blocking both the high and low pressure sides. The highest of the two pressures are used for this matter once again making sure that the direction of speed will be indifferent. Pressure will hence be built up at one side creating a braking torque. Pressure relief valves (4) open at the maximum allowed pressure in the circuit, making sure that components are not damaged. The anti-cavitation valves (5) make sure that the created low pressure side not cavitates. As seen in Figure 15 the pressure relief valves and anti-cavitation valves are already included in the pump schematics EP 2-Way Figure 23: Designed safety concept with EP control unit and 2-Way emergency brake The 2-Way emergency brake can move the stroke cylinder to both sides depending on the rotation direction. To determine the direction hydraulically, a separate pump (1) is attached to the axle of the secondary unit. The pump can work in both directions creating pressure on either side of the emergency brake circuit depending on the direction. The created pressure is used to push the stroke cylinder when a failure is recognised Karl Pettersson 33
35 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive (2). The direction that the cylinder should be pushed is determined by a 2-position spool valve (3) that switches sides depending on the pressure created and hence the rotational speed. Check valves are used to ensure that the configuration does not affect the performance in normal mode. A throttled connection to tank (4) is used to damp the braking motion. Only the high pressure side of the circuit now needs to be blocked. The additional pump must be big enough to create sufficient flow to move the stroke cylinder. This could cause a problem cosidering the effect of the mechanical feedback described in Chapter In normal mode is the additional pump still turning and consumes thus wasted energy. It is therefore important to keep a very low pressure in the emergency brake circuit in normal mode HD 1-Way Figure 24: Designed safety concept with HD control unit and 1-Way emergency brake The emergency brake is in the HD control possible to perform by pushing the control valve instead of the stroke cylinder itself. Pilot pressure must not be cut off since it is the active pressure that eventually affects the stroke cylinder. This makes this concept dependent on that pilot pressure persists even at a breakdown. Karl Pettersson 34
36 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive HD 2-Way Figure 25: Designed safety concept with HD control unit and 2-Way emergency brake The HD2W is also dependent on that the pilot pressure is kept during failure mode. The combination of two direction emergency brake and HD control unit will however not demand the same flow from the additional pump as with EP control unit (see Chapter 2.4.3). 2.6 Pilot Circuit Closed Circuit With Low Pressure Accumulator Closed circuit pumps normally have a boost pump handling the supply of the low pressure side and the pilot pressure to the control unit. However will the secondary unit be rotating in both directions in this case. Accordingly will the attached boost pump not be able to keep a pilot pressure as shown for example in Figure 15. It is then necessary to find another supply of pilot pressure to the secondary unit. Karl Pettersson 35
37 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 26: Principle of supplying pilot pressure to the secondary unit in a closed circuit with LP accumulator Figure 26 shows the designed solution for supplying pilot pressure to the secondary unit when using a low pressure accumulator. Since A4VG also is used as primary unit the attached boost pump (1) can be used to supply both control units. The LP accumulator is, in this type of circuit architecture, the supplier of oil to the low pressure side when braking. Dynamically can the boost pump itself not supply enough flow to cover swift braking because of a much lower displacement. The LP accumulator is hence emptied and the pressure will accordingly fall. Since this is the same pressure as supplied to the control units it is important to keep controllability by ensuring a high pilot pressure. The designed solution uses another accumulator (2) together with a check valve (3). During a pressure drop the check valve closes and the accumulator (2) becomes the only supplyer of pilot pressure. Since only lesser flows normally are needed for controlling, a small accumulator (1 2 L) is enough. Karl Pettersson 36
38 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Closed Circuit With Volume Equaliser Figure 27: Principle of supplying pilot pressure to the secondary unit in a closed circuit with volume equaliser The boost pump of the primary unit is also used for supplying pilot pressure here. However will the the low pressure side no longer face a pressure drop when braking the inertia. As explained in Chapter will now the volume equaliser supply the necessary oil flow to the low pressure side when braking. The supplied flow is the same that is inserted in the HP accumulator and consequently also the needed flow at the LP side of the secondary unit. Since the LP side no longer faces pressure drops is hence the additional accumulator not useful in normal mode Open Circuit Open circuit pumps do not normally have an attached boost pump and pilot pressure must hence be taken from the circuit. Karl Pettersson 37
39 2 Secondary Controlled Swing Drive Figure 28: Principle of supplying pilot pressure to the secondary unit in an open circuit Pressure from the HP side is reduced by a pressure reducing valve (1) into pilot pressure. Since no supply of the LP side is needed in the open circuit no pressure drops will occur during braking. Karl Pettersson 38
40 3 Dimensioning 3 Dimensioning 3.1 Current System This chapter handles an example of a realisation of a typical wheel excavator with operational weight of tons. The hydraulic system is valve controlled and supplied from an open circuit pump which supplies all the working hydraulics. It is a load-sensing system with closed-centre valves as described in Chapter 1.2. The swing drive is driven by a gearbox with an attached fixed hydraulic motor. The gearbox pinion drives the slewing ring and consequently the whole upper frame of the excavator. Two gears are hence active between the motor and the upper frame of the excavator. The configuration can be seen in Figure 29. Figure 29: Configuration of the swing drive for the excavator Karl Pettersson 39
