Abstract:
PURPOSE: A construction machine is provided to recover energy securely, and to reduce the size of the battery or the generator by charging remaining energy in the battery and actuating the generator with remaining torque. CONSTITUTION: A construction machine has an engine(1), a hydraulic pump(2) driven by the engine, and actuators(4) driven by discharge oil from the hydraulic pump. A regenerative motor(8) is rotated by return oil from the actuators and connected to a rotary shaft of the hydraulic pump. If driving torque necessary in the hydraulic pump is higher than output torque generated by the operation of the regenerative motor, the hydraulic pump operates driven by the engine and the regenerative motor. If driving torque for the hydraulic pump is lower than output torque of the regenerative motor, the hydraulic pump operates by the regenerative motor. With excess torque not subjected to energy regeneration in the hydraulic pump, a generator(11) connected to the rotary shaft of the hydraulic pump is operated for power generation to charge a battery(12) with the generated output.

The invention relates to a method and to an apparatus for vibration compensation in a piston compressor, the piston compressor of which is driven by means of a crankshaft by a three-phase motor controlled by a frequency converter, wherein the current position the crankshaft of the piston compressor is determined, and based on this the frequency converter, a torque (MM) for the three-phase motor is predetermined, which torque follows the load torque (ML) of the piston compressor in order to reduce the vibration stimulation of the entire piston compressor.
Abstract:
A monitor and control system for a hydraulic fracturing pump is described herein to reduce or eliminate harmful oscillations in fluid discharge pressure caused by the pump load dynamics. The monitor and control system receives various sensor data from the operation of the pump, including the pump crank position, and executes a pump control equation or model based on the pump sensor data, pump load data and/or pump speed data. Pump control equations or models are specific to the design and dynamic operation of the pump, incorporating the number of plungers, pump dynamics, motor lag and motor dynamics, etc. Using the pump control equations or models, the monitor and control system determines control commands for the pump motor to reduce or eliminate the oscillatory discharge pressure at the pump.

Abstract:
A hydraulic machine includes a number of piston/cylinder units which are each controlled by valves positioned upstream and downstream. The valves are in turn activated by an electronic regulator to switch the hydraulic machine selectively into a pump operating mode and a motor operating mode. The regulator selectively switches the individual piston/cylinder units or unit groups separately from one another into individually selectable operating modes as a function of certain regulating variables.
