Hybrid construction machine
A hybrid construction machine includes first and second main pumps, first and second supply passages, first and second circuit systems, a hydraulic motor, a motor generator, an assist pump, a joint passage connected to the assist pump and branched off, first and second logic valves, a switching valve disposed in the other branch passage and switchable to a state where the assist pump is connected to the second supply passage on the upstream side of the second logic valve and a state where the second main pump is connected to the hydraulic motor, and a check valve. A poppet diameter of the first logic valve is smaller than that of the second logic valve.
1. A hybrid construction machine, comprising:
a first main pump and a second main pump;
a first circuit system connected to the first main pump via a first supply passage;
a second circuit system connected to the second main pump via a second supply passage;
a hydraulic motor connected to the second main pump;
a motor generator adapted to be rotated by a drive force of the hydraulic motor;
an assist pump adapted to be rotated by a drive force of the motor generator;
a joint passage connected to the assist pump and branching off at an intermediate position into one branch passage and other branch passage;
a first logic valve disposed between the one branch passage and the first supply passage;
a second logic valve disposed in the second supply passage;
a switching valve disposed in the other branch passage and switchable to a state where the assist pump is connected to the second supply passage on the upstream side of the second logic valve and a state where the second main pump is connected to the hydraulic motor; and
a check valve provided downstream of the switching valve in the other branch passage and permitting only a flow from the assist pump to the second logic valve, wherein
a poppet diameter of the first logic valve is smaller than a poppet diameter of the second logic valve.
2. The hybrid construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein:
an on-off valve is provided in a pilot chamber of the first logic valve; and
the on-off valve is switchable to any one of a fully open position, a closed position and a throttle control position.
3. The hybrid construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein:
an on-off valve is provided in a pilot chamber of the second logic valve; and
the on-off valve is switchable to any one of a fully open position, a closed position and a throttle control position.
4. The hybrid construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein:
a poppet of the first logic valve is formed with a tubular portion; and
a plurality of small-diameter holes are formed at a front side in a valve opening direction of the poppet and a plurality of large-diameter holes are formed at a rear side in the valve opening direction on the periphery of the tubular portion.
