Energy-saving and emission reduction has become the theme of the world. The wheel loader has a harsh working environment, complicated working conditions, and drastic changes in load, and the performance of the engine cannot be fully utilized. Therefore, the variable speed transmission of vehicles plays a vital role in improving the efficiency and performance of the vehicle. This paper establishes the general characteristic equations for the input coupling type of hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission (HMCVT) based on the wheel loader and determines reasonable structural forms for connection of working conditions. It establishes the general efficiency equation for the reasonable structural form for efficiency analysis and presents a method of co-validation of the simulation and test for making the results of efficiency more accurate. Through this method, the transmission performance is more accurately analyzed, which provides an important guiding role and validation for the early design of HMCVT. Eventually, it gets reasonably optimized products and reduces the design cost and cycle.
The periodic flow and pressure pulsation of the axial piston pump can lead to periodic vibration, noise, and even damage to various components in the hydraulic system. Therefore, the dynamic characteristics analysis of the axial piston pump in the hydraulic system is of great significance for reducing vibration and noise in the hydraulic system and improving efficiency. The double-compound axial piston pump is the key component of a high power and large flow hydraulic power system, which has a special power control mode. In this paper, the working and control principles of the double-compound axial piston pump are analyzed, the numerical model of the double-compound axial piston pump is established, and the effectiveness of the model is verified through experimental tests. The constant power control characteristics of the double-compound axial piston pump under different power settings and the variable power control characteristics under the rated load pressure are analyzed. By analyzing the dynamic characteristics of the double-compound axial piston pump, the influence of different working conditions on the dynamic characteristics is investigated. The results show that the output efficiency of the double-compound axial piston pump is higher when the output flow is larger. When the piston chamber works in the closed pre-compression pressure zone and the closed pre-release pressure zone, oil backflow occurs. The oil backflow in the piston chamber seriously intensifies the outlet flow pulsation of the double-compound axial piston pump. The flow pulsation rate is positively correlated with load pressure and power control pilot pressure, while negatively correlated with spindle speed. The paper provides a basis for the analysis and optimization of power control, flow pulsation, fluid vibration, and noise of the double-compound axial piston pump.
The relief valve is an important control and overload protection component of the emulsion pumping station. Its performance will affect the overall performance of the emulsion pumping station and the stable and intelligent control of the working surface. However, the research on high pressure and large flow relief valve for mine emulsion pumping station is still inadequate. In order to meet the requirements of emulsion pump station for large flow sensitivity, stability, reliability, and remote intelligent control of overflow valve, this paper uses the digital control method to establish the mathematical model of the relief valve and uses the software such as AMESim to its dynamic characteristics. The simulation results show that the structural parameters such as spool quality, damping hole, and spring stiffness have an effect on the working characteristics of the relief valve. It also provides reference for the intelligent control research of the large flow relief valve for the emulsion pumping station.
