Title:
HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM HAVING FLOW FORCE COMPENSATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/075216
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A hydraulic control system (28) for a machine (10) is disclosed. The hydraulic control system may have a pump (38) configured to pressurize fluid, a displacement control valve (58) configured to affect displacement of the pump, and a tool control valve (68) configured to receive pressurized fluid from the pump and to selectively direct to the pressurized fluid to a hydraulic actuator. The hydraulic control system may also have a controller (34) in communication with the displacement control valve. The controller may be configured to determine a pressure gradient across the tool control valve substantially different than a desired pressure gradient, determine a desired condition of the displacement control valve based the pressure gradient, and determine a flow force applied to the displacement control valve based on the desired condition. The controller may be further configured to generate a load sense response signal directed to the displacement control valve based on the desired condition and the flow force.
