Hydraulic drive device for work vehicle
This hydraulic drive device for a work vehicle includes a main pump ( 1 ) of a variable displacement type or a fixed displacement type discharging pressure oil, a main flow passage (F 1 ) for supplying pressure oil of the main pump to an actuator, a sub-pump ( 5 ) of a fixed displacement type discharging pressure oil, a sub-flow passage (F 2 ) for making pressure oil of the sub-pump merge with the main flow passage and supplying the pressure oil to the actuator ( 2 ), a merging directional valve ( 6 A) for connecting or cutting off the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage, a controller ( 30 ) for controlling operation of the merging directional valve, and a relief valve ( 7 A) arranged in the sub-flow passage, in which the relief valve has a pressure override characteristic having a tendency that the relief pressure increases from a cracking pressure to a set pressure as a relief flow rate increases.
1. A hydraulic drive device for a work vehicle, comprising:
a main pump of a variable displacement type or a fixed displacement type, the main pump discharging pressure oil;
a main flow passage for supplying pressure oil of the main pump to an actuator;
a sub-pump of a fixed displacement type discharging pressure oil;
a sub-flow passage for making pressure oil of the sub-pump merge with the main flow passage and supplying the pressure oil to the actuator;
a merging directional valve for connecting or cutting off the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage;
a controller for controlling operation of the merging directional valve; and
a relief valve arranged in the sub-flow passage,
a return flow passage that connects the merging directional valve and a tank, and
a pressure sensor that detects pressure of the sub-flow passage,
wherein the relief valve has a pressure override characteristic having a tendency that the relief pressure increases from a cracking pressure to a set pressure as a relief flow rate increases,
wherein the sub-flow passage and the return flow passage communicate with each other through the merging directional valve in case the merging directional valve operates and the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage are cut off, and
wherein the controller operates the merging directional valve and cuts off the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage in case a predetermined time elapses after a pressure signal inputted from the pressure sensor reaches the cracking pressure.
2. The hydraulic drive device for a work vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a manual switch that is for forcibly operating the merging directional valve by the controller.
3. A hydraulic drive device for a work vehicle, comprising:
a main pump of a variable displacement type or a fixed displacement type, the main pump discharging pressure oil;
a main flow passage for supplying pressure oil of the main pump to an actuator;
a sub-pump of a fixed displacement type discharging pressure oil;
a sub-flow passage for making pressure oil of the sub-pump merge with the main flow passage and supplying the pressure oil to the actuator;
a merging directional valve for connecting or cutting off the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage;
a controller for controlling operation of the merging directional valve; and
a relief valve arranged in the sub-flow passage,
a return flow passage that connects the merging directional valve and a tank, and
a pressure sensor that detects pressure of the sub-flow passage,
wherein the relief valve has a pressure override characteristic having a tendency that the relief pressure increases from a cracking pressure to a set pressure as a relief flow rate increases,
wherein the sub-flow passage and the return flow passage communicate with each other through the merging directional valve in case the merging directional valve operates and the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage are cut off, and
wherein the controller operates the merging directional valve and cuts off the main flow passage and the sub-flow passage in case a pressure signal inputted from the pressure sensor reaches the set pressure.
4. The hydraulic drive device for a work vehicle according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a manual switch that is for forcibly operating the merging directional valve by the controller.
