Abstract
A method is provided for compensating for the flow rate of a variable capacity-type hydraulic pump such that, when a manipulation lever is manipulated, a discontinuous section, which has no change in the discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump, is eliminated.
Claims2
A method for compensating a discharge flow rate of a hydraulic pump for a construction machine, the construction machine including
- a hydraulic pump connected to an engine;
- a hydraulic actuator that drives the working device by operating hydraulic fluid;
- a control valve installed in a flow path of the hydraulic pump;
- an operation lever outputting a signal pressure corresponding to an operation amount;
- means for detecting the operation amount of the operation lever;
- means for detecting an engine rpm;
- and
- a controller for controlling the control valve in response to the signal pressure corresponding to the operation amount and a detected signal corresponding to an engine rpm, the method comprising;
- detecting the signal pressure corresponding to the operation amount of the operation lever, and the engine rpm;
- determining a required discharge volume corresponding to the operation amount of the operation lever and a compensation ratio, and
- determining a required discharge volume that compensates for the engine rpm, and
- controlling a discharge flow rate of the hydraulic pump,
- wherein the controlling step includes controlling the hydraulic pump so that the discharge flow rate derived from a sum of a required volume corresponding to the operation amount of the operation lever and a calculated volume that is obtained by multiplying a percentile compensation ratio by a difference value between the required volume corresponding to the operation amount of the operation lever and the required volume that compensates for the engine rpm.
