2. Description of the Related Art For example, a forklift, which is one of the power units, is constructed so that a cylinder can be driven by pressurized fluid discharged from a pump/motor. Among these, in the case where the pump/motor is connected to a DC motor and the DC motor is driven by a battery, it is necessary to take measures to extend the discharge period of the battery. Therefore, conventionally, as shown in Figure 3, a DC machine M is connected to a pump/motor C that plays the role of driving a power cylinder or the like to raise and lower the load, and the pump/motor C is rotated in the X direction in the figure. When rotating to perform a pumping action, the DC machine M is used as an electric motor, and the pump/motor C is connected to -X in the diagram.
When the motor operates by rotating in the opposite direction, the direct current machine M is used as a generator so that the energy of the load can be taken in and the battery can be charged in a timely manner.

However, in such a conventional power recovery device, since the pump/motor C has a constant volume, the pump discharge volume Q per rotation varies depending on the required flow rate. Once this is determined, there is no choice but to have the pump/motor C operate with a swallowing volume Q that is equal to the swallowed volume Q during power recovery. For this reason, there is a problem in that it is not possible to increase the rotation speed of the electric motor M to improve recovery efficiency during power recovery.

[Operation] With this configuration, if the discharge volume per rotation when the tandem mechanism performs a pump action is determined according to the required flow rate, the swallowed volume per revolution when the tandem mechanism performs a motor action is determined. is smaller than its discharge volume. For this reason, compared to a case where all the pumps/motors equally swallow pressurized liquid to operate the motor, the tandem mechanism is driven to rotate at a higher rotation speed in order to absorb the same amount of liquid. As a result, the rotational speed of the DC machine during power generation increases, and the power generation output increases in proportion to this.

As shown in FIG. 1, the power recovery device for a hydraulic mechanism according to this embodiment includes a tandem mechanism 1 having a structure in which a pair of pumps/motors A and B are coaxially connected, and a tandem mechanism 1 that is connected to the tandem mechanism 1. When the tandem mechanism 1 is connected and rotates forward in the X direction in the figure and performs a pump action, it functions as an electric motor, and when the tandem mechanism 1 rotates backward in the -X direction in the figure and performs a motor action, it functions as a generator. It is equipped with a DC machine M. A switching circuit 2 is connected to these pumps/motors A and B. The switching circuit 2 connects both pumps/motors A and B of the tandem mechanism 1 in parallel to a common suction port IN and a common discharge port OUT, and also connects the pumps/motors A and B of the tandem mechanism 1 in parallel to a common suction port IN and a discharge port OUT. A check valve 2b is provided that allows fluid to flow only during forward rotation. Moreover, if this check valve 2b is provided, the tandem mechanism 1
When the pump/motor B rotates in the opposite direction, the flow of pressure fluid to the pump/motor B is blocked, but since the pump/motor B rotates synchronously with the pump/motor A, the drag resistance increases and the circuit and This may lead to damage to the pump/motor. Therefore, the discharge side and the suction side of the pump/motor B are connected by a short circuit 2d having a check valve 2c, so that the fluid can self-circulate in a state close to no load.

, B will be discharged from the discharge port OUT as a pressure liquid. Next, when power is recovered by absorbing the energy of the load, the pump/motor A of the tandem mechanism 1 is driven in the reverse rotation direction by the load pressure at the discharge port OUT, and the pressurized liquid flowing from the discharge port OUT is (dashed line)
into this pump/motor A along the suction port IN
It will be discharged to Further, a part of the discharged fluid flows into the short circuit 2d, flows to the pump/motor B via the check valve 2c, and then joins the flow toward the discharge port OUT again to repeat self-circulation.

[0011] However, in this configuration, 1 during forward rotation
If the discharge amount Q from the discharge port OUT per revolution is set equal to the discharge amount Q of the conventional power recovery device shown in FIG.
The discharge volume handled by each pump/motor A and B is Q/2, and during reverse rotation, only pump/motor A has to cover the entire volume Q with this volume Q/2 (pump/motor B does not act as a motor). However, at this time, the fluid passing through the pump/motor B self-circulates under almost no load, so the drag resistance applied to the DC machine M is reduced. Therefore, if the loads are equal, the tandem mechanism 1 can rotate at twice the rotation speed. As a result, by using this power recovery device, it is possible to obtain approximately twice the amount of power generated by the DC machine 1 compared to the conventional one, and it is possible to effectively extend the battery discharge period when the above-mentioned forklift is a battery-driven type. It becomes possible.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. For example, the switching circuit 3 constituting the power recovery device shown in FIG. Although similar to the embodiment, this device connects the pump/motors A and B of the tandem mechanism 1 via a one-way clutch 4 instead of providing a short circuit. That is, this one-way clutch 4 is
The pump/motor B is configured to transmit power only when rotating in the forward direction, and idle when rotating in the -X direction in the figure, so that the pump/motor B does not rotate during the reverse rotation. Even with such a configuration, the same effects as those of the embodiment described above can be obtained. In addition, in the embodiments shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the volume ratio of pump/motor A and B is set to 1:1, but if these are made different, the power recovery efficiency can be adjusted according to the characteristics of the DC machine. It becomes possible to set the value to an appropriate value that is more than twice or less than twice the conventional value. Furthermore, the number of pumps/motors constituting the tandem mechanism can be increased to three or more, and the configuration of the switching mechanism can also be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
