Abstract

Hydraulic power shifting systems of hydraulic travel motor may be far safer than mechanical power transmission systems. Thus, hydraulic power shifting systems are widely used for speed control on the hydraulic equipments. In the case of liquid shifting lines, the rapid change of area, such as valve closing, can result in a large pressure transient. It is necessary to assure proper control method in order to obtain the smallest shift shock. This study conducts the shock characteristics of hydraulic power shifting system of the hydraulic travel motor. Experimental results show that shock pressure depends on the operating pressure, flow rate and pipe line area. The shock characteristics can be applied for reducing shocks.
