B. hydraulic oil flows to the hydraulic cylinder through the four-way reversing valve, flows into the hydraulic cylinder through the one-way valve and flows out of the hydraulic cylinder through the regulating valve on the way, the opening degree of the regulating valve at the outlet is controlled to regulate the flow of the outlet of the hydraulic cylinder, so that the lifting speed of the unit body is controlled, after the displacement of the measured unit body reaches the final required position, the regulating valve at the outlet is closed, a loop enters a pressure maintaining state, and the unit body is static;
C. the opening of the regulating valve realizes independent negative feedback regulation among all branches according to the flow curve of the input control end and the measured value of a flow sensor arranged at the outlet of the throttle valve, and the opening of the regulating valve is continuously regulated to obtain the required outlet flow so as to correspond to the required speed of the movement of the unit body;
D. in order to reduce frequent fluctuation of the control valve, a valve opening control part of the hydraulic control system adopts PI control, and control gain is small, so that the control gain is close to pure integral control, namely, integral time is small enough.
