It consists of the control valve 22 which controls the said piston 21, moving the spool by 24. As shown in FIG.

The conventional regulator configured as described above controls the discharge flow rate of the main pump by switching the flow path while the spool of the control valve is moved by a piston having a relatively large movement between the control piston and the pilot piston.

However, the conventional regulator as described above, the accuracy is reduced by controlling the flow rate of the main pump based on the load applied to the main pump or the main control valve instantaneously without considering the state of the entire equipment, thereby consuming unnecessary fuel There is a problem that occurs.

The present invention has been made in consideration of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to control the discharge flow rate of the main pump based on the signal pressure from the actuators and the manipulator provided in the excavator, it is possible to control the flow rate more precisely, This provides an excavator flow control device that operates with an electrical signal to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption.

The flow control device for an excavator operated by the electric signal of the present invention, which achieves the object as described above and performs a problem for eliminating the drawbacks of the related art, is connected to the swash plate of the variable displacement main pump provided in the excavator and has a tilt angle of the swash plate. Piston to adjust the; A control valve connected to the piston to control the piston to adjust the tilt angle of the swash plate; And a pilot pressure control valve that adjusts the pilot pressure provided to the control valve according to the current value provided from the main control unit of the excavator, characterized in that the discharge flow rate of the main pump is controlled by the main control unit.

Figure 2 is a hydraulic circuit diagram showing the structure of the flow control device for excavators in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description of the embodiments of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear.

Figure 2 shows a hydraulic circuit diagram showing the structure of the flow control device for excavators according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Excavator flow control device 120 operating with an electrical signal according to the present invention by controlling the discharge flow rate of the main pump (111, 112) based on the overall state information of the equipment provided from the main control unit (MCU), It has the characteristic that flow control is possible, and is comprised from the piston 121, the control valve 122, and the pilot pressure control valve 123.

The piston 121 is connected to the swash plate of the main pump (111, 112) to provide a function to adjust the tilt angle of the swash plate.

The control valve 122 is to control the hydraulic pressure transmitted to the piston 121, the spool is moved by the control piston 124 which is operated by the pilot pressure transmitted through the pilot pressure control valve 123, As the flow path is switched by the movement of the spool, the oil pressure transmitted to the piston 121 is controlled.

The piston 121 and the control valve 122 has the same configuration and function as the piston and the control valve provided in the conventional regulator, more detailed description thereof will be omitted.

However, in the case of a control valve provided in a conventional regulator, the spool is moved by a control piston operated by a pilot pressure determined according to a load applied to the main pump or the main control valve instantaneously. The valve 122 has a difference in that it is configured to receive and drive the pilot pressure regulated by the pilot pressure control valve 123 controlled by the main control unit of the excavator.

More specifically, the pilot pressure control valve 123 transmits the pilot pressure corresponding to the current value transmitted from the main control unit to the control piston 124.

Meanwhile, the main control unit is provided with a signal pressure generated when an actuator such as a boom cylinder, an arm cylinder, a bucket cylinder, and a swing motor provided in an excavator, and a signal pressure generated by an actuator of an actuator for operating the actuator. The current value to be applied to the control valve 123 is calculated, through which the correct flow rate required for driving the actual actuator is discharged using the main pumps 111 and 112.

On the other hand, preferably, the optimum flow rate required according to the type and operation state of the operation performed in each actuator is set in advance, and when the type and operation state of the operation are recognized by the signal pressure transmitted from the actuator and the manipulator, It is configured to apply a current value to the pilot pressure control valve 123 so that a predetermined optimum flow rate can be discharged from the main pumps 111 and 112.

Excavator flow control device operating by the electric signal of the present invention configured as described above when the work is performed by the actuator provided in the excavator, the main control unit is provided with the signal pressure generated from each actuator and the manipulator to the required flow rate The corresponding current value is calculated, and the current value derived through the calculation is transmitted to the pilot pressure control valve 123.

Meanwhile, the pilot pressure delivered to the control piston 124 is controlled by the pilot pressure control valve 123 received the current value from the main control unit, and the control piston 124 is driven by the adjusted pilot pressure to control the valve. The spool of 122 is moved, and the piston 121 operates as the direction of the flow path is changed by the movement of the spool, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the swash plate to the required flow rate.

Such a flow control device for an excavator operating with an electric signal according to the present invention controls the maximum discharge flow rate of the main pump (111, 112) based on the actual flow rate required by each actuator, more precise flow control than conventional regulators It is possible, through which there is an advantage to prevent unnecessary fuel consumption.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims and their equivalents. Of course, such modifications are within the scope of the claims.
