Battery charge/discharge control device, battery charge/discharge control method, and hybrid working machine with battery charge/discharge control device
A battery charge/discharge control device which performs battery charge/discharge control in a working machine with a battery capable of storing electric energy generated by a generator motor coupled to an engine and driving the generator motor or at least one of other electric actuators by the stored electric energy and a controller which controls a distribution of the electric energy among the battery, the generator motor, and the electric actuator, wherein the controller performs the charge/discharge control in which the electric energy of the battery is discharged when the engine is driven and recharging to the battery is permitted on a condition that a state in which an engine speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined engine speed is maintained for a predetermined time after the battery is completely discharged.
1. A battery charge/discharge control device which performs battery charge/discharge control in a working machine with a battery capable of storing electric energy generated by a generator motor coupled to an engine and driving the generator motor or at least one of other electric actuators by the stored electric energy and a controller which controls a distribution of the electric energy among the battery, the generator motor, and the electric actuator,
wherein the controller performs the charge/discharge control in which the electric energy of the battery is discharged when the engine is driven and recharging to the battery is permitted on a condition that a state in which an engine speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined engine speed is maintained for a predetermined time after the battery is completely discharged.
2. The battery charge/discharge control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the controller performs the charge/discharge control in which the recharging to the battery is prohibited until the state in which the engine speed is equal to or lower than the predetermined engine speed is maintained for the predetermined time after the battery is completely discharged.
3. The battery charge/discharge control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the state in which the engine speed is equal to or lower than the predetermined engine speed is a state after an engine stopping instruction is generated by an instruction output unit which instructs starting and stopping of the engine.
4. The battery charge/discharge control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the predetermined engine speed is an engine speed in which the engine speed increases when an instruction output unit which instructs starting and stopping of the engine is operated so that a fuel injection device supplying a fuel to the engine supplies a fuel to the engine after the engine is stopped by the instruction output unit.
5. The battery charge/discharge control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the charge/discharge control is performed by determining the battery discharging completion as a time point in which a predetermined time is elapsed from a state where a voltage of the battery is equal to or lower than a predetermined value.
6. A battery charge/discharge control method which performs battery charge/discharge control in a working machine with a battery capable of storing electric energy generated by a generator motor coupled to an engine and driving the generator motor or at least one of other electric actuators by the stored electric energy and a controller which controls a distribution of the electric energy among the battery, the generator motor, and the electric actuator, the method comprising:
performing, by the controller, the charge/discharge control in which the electric energy of the battery is discharged when the engine is driven and recharging to the battery is permitted on a condition that a state in which an engine speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined engine speed is maintained for a predetermined time after the battery is completely discharge.
7. A hybrid working machine comprising:
the battery charge/discharge control device according to claims 1 .
