The simplest methods of diagnostics of hydraulic systems of machines. The structure and principle of operation of modern excavators Special devices, tools and equipment for diagnostics of the hydraulic system

The methods for diagnostics of the hydraulic system proposed in the article describe in sufficient detail and clearly the procedures for finding, identifying and eliminating malfunctions in the hydraulic system of an excavator and can serve as a practical guide for enterprises operating equipment with a hydraulic drive

Maintenance of hydraulic systems of machines should be carried out by highly qualified specialists using high-precision diagnostic devices that display information about problems on a computer. The latter should indicate methods of troubleshooting. This approach is increasingly being used.

However, even if there is no competent specialist nearby, and only simple measuring instruments are available from the diagnostic tools, it is possible to determine the causes of a hydraulic system malfunction quite accurately and quickly using a logical method of finding them. At the same time, it is necessary to understand well the basic principles of hydraulics and to know the basics of operation and structure of each element of the hydraulic drive.

How do I stop the excavator?

If a malfunction has resulted in the loss of functions of the machine, and / or adversely affects the safety of its operation, or damages the environment (for example, breaking the high pressure hose), the machine must be stopped immediately.

To ensure safety when stopping the machine, the following measures must be taken:

  • lower all suspended working parts of the machine or fix them mechanically;
  • relieve pressure in the entire hydraulic system;
  • discharge all accumulators;
  • relieve pressure from pressure transducers;
  • turn off the electrical control system;
  • disconnect the power supply.

It should be borne in mind that the working fluids used in hydraulic drives are low-compressible in comparison with gas and expand slightly when the pressure decreases. However, in those places of the hydraulic system where compressed gas can be located (due to insufficient deaeration or when a hydraulic accumulator is connected), the pressure should be reduced very carefully.

How to approach hydraulic system diagnostics?

Hydraulic system faults can be divided into two types:

  • malfunctions that do not affect (of course, up to a certain time) on the functioning of the machine - functional malfunction in the hydraulic system (for example, increased leakage, temperature, etc.);
  • faults affecting the function of the machine - a functional problem in the machine (for example, reduced performance).

The search for different types of faults is performed according to different algorithms.

There may be cases where the same malfunction (for example, of a pump) can lead to a functional malfunction in both the machine (reduced performance) and in the hydraulic system (increased noise level).

Experience has shown that it is preferable to start troubleshooting with the underlying problems and work through test procedures, taking into account such indications as temperature rise, noise, leaks, etc., as "clues". Common sense is critical, as certain symptoms can directly indicate a problem area. The jet of oil flowing out from under the hydraulic cylinder seal indicates where the problem area is.

However, some of the symptoms are not so obvious. If in any node there is a flow leakage during the transition from high pressure to low pressure, then local heat release occurs in it, which is not always possible to detect immediately.

Wherever you start your search, certain questions need to be answered before you can act. If there is a report of a problem, then it is necessary to collect as much factual information as possible. Perhaps this problem has already occurred and is recorded in the operating documents. In this case, you can save a lot of time. Check to see if any maintenance or adjustment work has been carried out on the system shortly before the malfunction occurs. It is necessary to determine the exact nature of the malfunction: it appeared suddenly or developed gradually, over a long time, on the operation of which parts of the machine it affects.

How to identify the simplest hydraulic system faults?

There are two ways to identify faults:

  • with the help of the senses;
  • using devices and tools.

The simplest faults in a hydraulic system can be detected with the help of the senses - by seeing, feeling, hearing - and very quickly. In practice, many problems are solved in this way, without the use of any tools.

Heating the working fluid to a temperature of more than 60 ° С On pipelines - Low level working fluid in the tank
- Clogged filters
- Clogged breather
Heating pump On the pump casing and adjacent units - Low feed and, as a result, insufficient speed of working operations
Heating of hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic motors On the body of the hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic motor and adjacent pipelines at a distance of 10-20 cm - Defective hydraulic cylinder (wear of seals, damage to the piston)
- Faulty hydraulic motor (wear of pistons and distributor, failure of bearings)
Heating of hydraulic valves On the valve body and adjacent working fluid drain pipelines - Defective hydraulic valve (wear of spools, faulty valves)

If with the help of the senses it was not possible to identify the malfunction, then it is necessary to use devices: manometers, flow meters, etc.

How to approach the search for more complex hydraulic problems?

Before starting troubleshooting, you need to clearly know which parameters of the hydraulic system must be measured in order to obtain information about the location of the malfunction, and with what special tools, devices and equipment to do this.

Measured parameters

For the normal operation of the machine, a certain force (torque) must be transmitted to its working body at a certain speed and in a certain direction. The compliance of these parameters with the specified ones should be provided by the hydraulic drive, which converts the hydraulic energy of the fluid flow into the mechanical energy of the output link. The correct operation of the working body depends on the parameters of the flow - flow rate, pressure and direction.

Therefore, one or more of these parameters must be checked to test the hydraulic system. To make a decision on which parameters to check, it is necessary to obtain complete information about the malfunction.

Often the message about a malfunction in a car consists of rather inaccurate information, for example: "insufficient power". The power depends both on the effort on the output link and on its speed, i.e. from two parameters. In this case, more focused questions should be asked to decide which parameter to check: Is the drive running too slowly or is it not delivering the required force or torque?

After determining the nature of the malfunction (insufficient speed or force, wrong direction of movement of the working element), it is possible to determine the deviation of which flow parameter (flow rate, pressure, direction) from the required value led to this malfunction.

Although the troubleshooting procedure is based on monitoring flow, pressure and direction of flow, there are other system parameters that can be measured both to locate a faulty component and to determining the reasons for its malfunction:

  • pressure at the inlet to the pump (vacuum) - for troubleshooting the suction lines;
  • temperature - usually a higher temperature in one of the components of the system (compared to the temperature of the rest) is a sure sign that a leak is taking place;
  • noise - With systematic and routine checks, noise is a good indicator of pump health.
  • contamination level - in case of repeated occurrence of hydraulic system failures, the contamination of the working fluid should be checked to determine the causes of the malfunction.

Special devices, tools and equipment for hydraulic system diagnostics

In a hydraulic system, pressure is usually measured with a pressure gauge or vacuum gauge, and flow is measured with a flow meter. In addition, the diagnostician may benefit from other devices and tools:

  • pressure transducer and recorder - if the accuracy of pressure measurement must be higher than the accuracy provided by the pressure gauge, as well as if it is necessary to measure pressure during a transient process or under the action of reactive disturbances from an external load (the pressure transducer produces an alternating voltage depending on the applied pressure);
  • graduated vessel and stopwatch - when measuring very small flows, for example, leaks, they can be used to obtain greater accuracy than when measuring with a flow meter;
  • temperature sensor or a thermometer - to measure the temperature in the hydraulic tank, you can install a temperature sensor (often combined with a working fluid level indicator), and it is recommended to use a sensor that gives an alarm as soon as the temperature of the working fluid becomes too low or too high;
  • thermocouple - to measure the local temperature in the system;
  • noise meter - increased noise is also a clear sign of system malfunction, especially for the pump. A noise meter can always be used to compare the noise level of a "suspect" pump with the noise level of a new pump;
  • particle counter - allows you to determine the level of contamination of the working fluid with a high degree of reliability.

Diagnostics of the hydraulic system in the event of a functional malfunction in the excavator

Step 1. Wrong work drive may have the following reasons:

  • the speed of the actuator does not match the specified one;
  • the supply of the working fluid of the actuator does not correspond to the specified one;
  • lack of movement of the actuator;
  • movement in the wrong direction or uncontrolled movement of the actuator;
  • incorrect sequence of switching on the actuators;
  • "creep" mode, very slow operation of the actuator.

Step 2. According to the hydraulic diagram, the brand of each component of the system and its function are determined

Step 3. Make lists of nodes that may be the cause of the malfunction of the machine... For example, insufficient speed of the actuator of the drive may be the result of insufficient fluid flow entering the hydraulic cylinder, or its pressure. Therefore, it is necessary to compile a list of all the nodes that affect these parameters.

Step 4. Based on a certain diagnostic experience, the priority order of checking the nodes is determined.

Step 5. Each node in the list is pre-checked in order. The check is carried out according to such parameters as correct installation, tuning, signal perception, etc., in order to detect abnormal signs (such as elevated temperature, noise, vibration, etc.)

Step 6. If, as a result of a preliminary check, a faulty unit is not found, then a more intensive check of each unit is carried out using additional tools, without removing the unit from the machine.

Step 7. Verification using additional devices should help you find a faulty unit, after which you can decide whether it should be repaired or replaced.

Step 8. Before restarting the machine, it is necessary to analyze the causes and consequences of the malfunction.... If the problem is caused by dirt or an increase in the temperature of the hydraulic fluid, it may recur. Accordingly, it is necessary to take further measures to eliminate the malfunction. If the pump breaks down, then its debris could enter the system. Before connecting a new pump, the hydraulic system should be thoroughly flushed.

* Think about what could have caused the damage, as well as the further consequences of this damage.

Excavators are designed to work with frozen or not soils, as well as with pre-crushed rocks. The operating temperature range of the equipment is -40 ... + 40 ° С. The excavator device includes several units that ensure the operation of the machine.

How aggregates are classified

Excavators equipped with a working body with one bucket are divided into categories:

  1. By functional purpose. There are machines designed for construction work, special and career. The latter are equipped with a reinforced bucket designed for working with rocks.
  2. According to the design of the chassis - wheeled on a special chassis, wheeled on an automobile chassis, tracked. The latter can be equipped with extended track belts.
  3. By the type of drive of the working body - hydraulic, electric, combined.

How an excavator works

The general arrangement of an earth-moving excavator includes:

  • undercarriage;
  • engine;
  • hydraulic system;
  • transmission;
  • a cabin with controls;
  • platform with a rotating device;
  • working boom.


An internal combustion engine with compression ignition is mounted on the turntable. The motor has a system liquid cooling... The cooling fans are driven automatically, but there is a forced switch button. To increase power and reduce fuel consumption, the installation of turbochargers is used. The engine drives the working mechanisms of the excavator through a hydraulic or electric transmission. Mechanical transmissions are used on outdated equipment.

The swivel part is mounted on the chassis through a shoulder strap that provides 360 ° rotation. The platform houses the operator's cab, hydraulic and electrical systems, boom with drive and control mechanisms. The excavator boom can be fitted with a variety of bucket designs or a trencher to reduce the time required to create trenches. It is possible to install hydraulic hammers or other equipment required for excavation work.

On excavators with a mechanical drive, winches are used that directly control the movement of the boom. On machines there are winches with 1 or 2 shafts. A 1-shaft unit is a unit in which the lifting and traction drums are mounted on a single shaft. If the drums of the winch are spaced along the shafts, then it is called 2-shaft. Similar mechanisms are installed on large excavators.

The winches are driven by shafts through a gearbox or by a chain from the main shaft of the transmission. Multi-disc friction clutches are used for switching on, band brakes for stopping. The rope is laid on the drum in one or more layers, depending on the length.

The design of a mini-excavator does not differ from the principles laid down in full-size equipment. The difference lies in the simplified design of the hydraulics and the use of a small diesel engine. The operator's workplace is located in a closed cabin equipped with ventilation and heating systems.


The loader excavator device is different from the above described mechanism. The work bucket is located on the articulated boom at the front of the standard wheeled tractor... The loading equipment has a hydraulic drive, which is controlled from the operator's cab.

Introduction to work

Relevance of the topic.The efficiency of maintenance of road construction machines (SDM) largely depends on the high-quality performance of technical diagnostics of the machine and its hydraulic drive, which is an integral part of most SDM. In recent years, in most sectors of the national economy, there is a transition to maintenance of road construction equipment according to the actual technical condition, allowing to exclude unnecessary repair operations Such a transition requires the development and implementation of new diagnostic methods for hydraulic drives SDM

Diagnostics of a hydraulic drive often requires assembly and disassembly work, which is associated with a significant amount of time. time, one of the sources of machine vibrations are hydrodynamic processes in hydraulic systems, and the vibration parameters can be used to judge the nature of the flowing hydrodynamic processes and the state of the hydraulic drive and its individual elements

By the beginning of the XXI century, the possibilities of vibration diagnostics of rotating equipment had grown so much that it formed the basis of measures for the transition to maintenance and repair of many types of equipment, for example, ventilation equipment, according to the actual state.However, for SDM hydraulic drives, the nomenclature of defects detected by vibration and the reliability of their identification is still insufficient to make such important decisions

In this regard, one of the most promising methods for diagnosing and hydraulic drives of SDM are methods of in-place vibration diagnostics based on the analysis of parameters of hydrodynamic processes

Main kept woman work

In the introductionsubstantiated the relevance of the dissertation topic, indicated the purpose of the work, formulated scientific novelty and practical value, provided a summary of the work and information about its approbation

In the first chapterthe modern system of maintenance of the SDM is considered, while it is indicated that an important place in the technological process of maintenance and repair is occupied by technical diagnostics, which are of two main types: general diagnostics (D-1) and in-depth diagnostics (D-2)

A comparative analysis of existing diagnostic methods was also carried out, while an acceptance was made on vibration methods One of the most frequently used methods in practice is the static-parameter method based on the analysis of parameters of a throttled flow of the working fluid This method is convenient in that it allows you to accurately identify the location of the fault, makes it possible when carrying out diagnostics, also adjust and run in the hydraulic system.At the same time, this method requires assembly and disassembly work, which leads to significant labor costs and leads to additional downtime Therefore, one of the directions for improving the MRO system is the development of CIP diagnostic methods, in particular, methods based on the analysis of the parameters of hydrodynamic processes in working fluids

However, at present, the defects detected by vibration diagnostics systems do not have quantitative characteristics similar to those of the structural parameters of the object.In particular, during vibration diagnostics, for example, the geometric dimensions of elements, the size of gaps, etc. are not determined. Quantitative estimates of the detected defects can considered a probabilistic assessment of the risk of an accident during the further operation of the equipment Therefore, the name of the detected defects often does not correspond to the names of those deviations of the element state from normal, which are monitored during the defect detection of equipment units. determining the effectiveness of vibration diagnostics systems

One of the most promising methods for modeling processes in hydraulic systems is the method of electrohydraulic analogies, in which each element of the hydraulic system is associated with a certain element of the electrical equivalent circuit

The general state of the issue of the hydrodynamics of the working fluid in volumetric hydraulic systems is investigated, and a review of works on this issue is carried out. It is determined that hydrodynamic processes have

significant impact on the performance of machines It is indicated that in a practical aspect, namely in the aspect of improving performance characteristics energy-intensive harmonics of large amplitude are important, therefore, when conducting research, it is advisable to focus attention, first of all, on them, that is, on harmonics of low frequency

Based on the research results, the goal and objectives of the research were formulated

In the second chapterthe results of theoretical studies of hydrodynamic processes in the RL are presented, the issue of the passage of waves through an obstacle is investigated, and on this basis the transfer functions for the passage of waves through some elements of hydraulic systems are obtained.In particular, the transfer function for some obstacle in the form of a gap in a pipe of constant cross section has the following form

4 - ( J>

w = ^-= -.

where and]- the amplitude of the incident wave, and 3 is the amplitude of the wave passing through the slit, to- the ratio of the cross-section of the pipe to the area of \u200b\u200bthe hole

For a double-acting single-stem hydraulic cylinder in the presence of overflow, the transfer function will have the form

where t - the ratio of the area of \u200b\u200bthe piston to the area of \u200b\u200bthe rod, to -ratio of piston area to overflow area, U -the ratio of the effective cross-sectional area of \u200b\u200bthe hydraulic line to the piston area In this case, the internal diameters of the drain and pressure hydraulic lines are assumed to be equal to each other

Also in the second chapter, based on the method

where the reflection coefficient is determined by the expression r _ Zii-Zlb - Z „- hydraulic load resistance ~7 +7

The resulting model is valid not only for hydraulic lines with absolutely rigid walls of the hydraulic line, but also for high pressure hoses.In the latter case, the wave propagation speed should be calculated using the well-known formula

where r -radius of the hydraulic line, d -wall thickness, K -reduced bulk modulus of elasticity

The assessment of the maximum value of pressure overshoots in the event of hydraulic shocks in the hydraulic system of the DZ-171 bulldozer (basic machine T-170), arising from the stop of the hydraulic cylinders for lifting the blade, the resulting value was Ar, k 24.6 MI FaIn case of water hammer occurrence, in case of delay

actuation of safety valves for a time of 0.04 s, theoretically the maximum value of pressure overshoots in the hydraulic system of this machine is 83.3 MPa

Due to the fact that the measurements were supposed to be carried out on real machines by the CIP method, the question of the relationship between the amplitude of vibration displacements and vibration accelerations of the outer walls of pressure hydraulic lines and the amplitude of pressure pulsations in the hydraulic lines was considered.The resulting dependence for a rigid pipe has the form

After solving equation 13 for the most common case, that is, with a \u003d 3516 ", and neglecting the inertial forces of the RVD walls in comparison with the elastic forces of the braids, a simplified dependence was obtained

The third chapter presents the results of experimental studies

To substantiate the possibility of measuring the parameters of hydrodynamic processes in the RZ with the help of overhead sensors, a study was made of the dependence of the static deformation of the RVD on the internal pressure. RVD brand - B-29-40-25-4-U TU-38-005-111-1995, calculated for the nominal pressure Р nom \u003d 40 MPa RVD characteristic length - 1.6 m, inner diameter - 25 mm, outer diameter - 40 mm, the number of braids - 4, the diameter of the braid wire - 0.5 mm The radial and axial deformation of the high pressure hose was investigated when the pressure changed from 0 to 12 MPa

For RVD with both fixed ends, the dependence
radial deformation from pressure is shown in Fig. 3
that the RVD behaves differently with increasing pressure (the upper curve
in Fig. 3 a) and b)), and with a decrease in pressure (lower curve in Fig. 3 a) and
b)) Thus, the existence of the known phenomenon was confirmed
hysteresis during deformation of the RVD Work expended on deformation
for one cycle per one meter of the length of this RVD, turned out to be the same for
in both cases - 6.13 J / m It was also established that at large
pressures (\u003e 0.2P, IOVI), radial deformation remains practically
unchanged Such differentiation can probably be explained by the fact that
that in the section from 0 to 8 MPa the increase in diameter is due to
mainly by sampling the backlash between the layers of the metal braid, and
also by deformation of the non-metallic base of the hose.
circumstance means that at high pressures damping
the properties of the hydraulic line itself are insignificant, the parameters

hydrodynamic processes can be investigated by the parameters of the vibrations of the hydraulic line.It was found by the method of finite differences that the optimal regression equation describing the dependence P \u003d J.

The difficulty of toolless identification of a faulty assembly leads to increased maintenance and repair costs. When determining the reasons for the failure of any element of the system, it is necessary to carry out assembly and disassembly work.

Taking into account the latter circumstance, methods of CIP technical diagnostics are highly effective. In connection with the rapid development of computer technology in recent years, the reduction in the cost of hardware and software for digital measuring instruments, including vibration analyzers, a promising direction is the development of methods for CIP vibration diagnostics of hydraulic drives SDM, based, in particular, on the analysis of hydrodynamic processes in horizontal wells.

General definition of the transfer function of a single-stroke double-acting hydraulic cylinder

The pressure pulsations created by the OH in the hydraulic system of the SDM can be decomposed into harmonic components (harmonics). In this case, the very first harmonic has, as a rule, the largest amplitude. We will call the first harmonic of pressure pulsations created by OH, the main harmonic (GT).

In the general case, the construction of a mathematical model for the propagation of the main harmonic along the pressure hydraulic line from the source (pump) to the working element is a laborious task that must be solved for each hydraulic system separately. At the same time, the transfer functions for each link of the hydraulic system (sections of hydraulic lines, hydraulic devices, valves, local resistances, etc.), as well as feedbacks between these elements, must be determined. The presence of feedback can be said if the wave propagating from the source interacts with the wave propagating towards the source. In other words, feedback occurs when interference occurs in the hydraulic system. Thus, the transfer functions of the elements of the hydraulic system should be determined not only depending on design features hydraulic drive, but also depending on the modes of its operation.

The following algorithm is proposed for constructing a mathematical model of the propagation of the main harmonic along the hydraulic system:

1. In accordance with the hydraulic diagram, as well as taking into account the operating modes of the hydraulic system, a structural diagram of the mathematical model is drawn up.

2. Based on the kinematic parameters of the HM, the presence of feedbacks is determined, after which the structural diagram of the mathematical model is corrected.

3. The choice of the optimal methods for calculating the main harmonic and its amplitudes at various points of the HM is made.

4. The gear ratios of all links of the hydraulic system are determined, as well as the gear ratios of feedbacks in operator, symbolic or differential form, based on the previously selected calculation methods.

5. The calculation of the parameters of the HS at the required points of the HS.

It should be noted several regularities of the mathematical models of the passage of the GG through the hydraulic systems of the SDM.

1. The law of propagation of the main harmonic in the most general case does not depend on the presence (absence) of branches from the hydraulic line. The exceptions are cases when the length of the branches is a multiple of a quarter of the wavelength, that is, those cases when the necessary condition for the occurrence of interference is satisfied.

2. Feedback depends on the operating mode of the hydraulic drive, and can be either positive or negative. A positive one is observed when resonance modes appear in the hydraulic system, and a negative one is observed when antiresonant modes arise. Due to the fact that the transfer functions depend on a large number of factors and can change when the operating mode of the hydraulic system changes, it is more convenient to express positive or negative feedback (in contrast to automatic control systems) as a plus or minus sign in front of the transfer function.

3. The investigated harmonic can serve as a factor initiating the emergence of a number of secondary harmonic components.

4. The proposed method for constructing a mathematical model can be used not only in studying the law of propagation of the main harmonic, but also in studying the law of behavior of other harmonics. However, due to the above circumstances, the transfer functions for each frequency will be different. As an example, let us consider the mathematical model of the propagation of the main harmonic along the hydraulic system of the DZ-171 bulldozer (Appendix 5). D2

Here L is a source of pulsations (pump); Dl, D2 - vibration sensors; Wj (p) -transfer function of the hydraulic line in the section from the pump to the OK; \\ Uz (p) -transfer function OK; W2 (p) - transfer function for the wave reflected from the OC and propagating back to the pump; W4 (p) -transfer function of the section of the hydraulic line between the OC and the distributor; Ws (p) - distributor transfer function; W7 (p) and W8 (p) - transfer functions of waves reflected from the distributor; W6 (p) - transfer function of the section of the hydraulic line between the distributor and hydraulic cylinders 2; W p) - the transfer function of the hydraulic cylinder; Wn (p) - transfer function of the hydraulic line in the section from the distributor to the filter; Wi2 (p) - filter transfer function; Wi3 (p) is the transfer function of the hydraulic system for the wave reflected from the piston of the hydraulic cylinder.

It should be noted that for a serviceable hydraulic cylinder, the transfer function is equal to 0 (the wave does not pass through the hydraulic cylinder in the absence of leaks). Based on the assumption that overflows in hydraulic cylinders are usually small, then feedback between the filter, on the one hand, and the pump, on the other, we neglect. Modeling the passage of the main harmonic through obstacles Consideration of the passage of a wave through an obstacle is generally a physical problem. However, in our case, on the basis of physical equations, the process of wave propagation through some elements of hydraulic systems will be considered.

Consider a hydraulic line with a cross-sectional area Si, having a solid obstacle with an opening with an area S2 and a width br. First, let us define in general terms the ratio of the amplitudes of the incident wave in the hydraulic line 1 (tfj) to the amplitude of the wave that passed through the slot 2 (Fig. 2.1.2). Line 1 contains the incident and reflected waves:

General Provisions. The purpose and objectives of experimental research

The data obtained in the second chapter made it possible to formulate the tasks of experimental research in the third chapter. The purpose of the experimental research: "Obtaining experimental data on hydrodynamic processes in the fluid in the hydraulic systems of the SDM" The objectives of the experimental studies were: - to study the properties of the high pressure hoses in order to study the adequacy of the measured parameters of the oscillations of the outer walls of the high pressure hoses to the parameters of the hydrodynamic processes in the hydro systems of the SDM; - determination of the decrement of attenuation of waves in the RZ used in the hydraulic systems of the SDM; - study of the spectral composition of pressure pulsations in SDM hydraulic systems containing gear and axial piston pumps; - study of the properties of shock waves arising in the hydraulic systems of the SDM during the operation of machines; - study of the patterns of wave propagation in the RZ.

The calculation of the errors of the measured values \u200b\u200bwas carried out using statistical methods. The approximation of dependences was carried out by the method of regression analysis based on the method of least squares, under the assumption that the distribution of random errors is normal (Gaussian). The calculation of measurement errors was carried out according to the following relations: cj \u003d jo2s + c2R, (3.1.2.1) where the systematic error JS was calculated according to the following dependence: r \u003d r1 gl + r2o (3.1.2.2), and the random error aA is from the theory of small samples. In the above formula and A is the instrument error; m0 is a random error. Checking the correspondence of the experimental distribution to the normal one was carried out using the Pearson's goodness-of-fit test: , where and ,. \u003d - (p (ut) theoretical frequencies, n \\; are empirical frequencies; p (u) \u003d - \u003d e and 2 \\ n is the sample size, h is the step (the difference between two adjacent n / 2r options), ab is the mean square deviation, and, \u003d - To confirm the compliance of the studied samples with the normal distribution law, the “W test” was used, which is applicable for small samples.

According to one of the corollaries of Taylor's theorem, any function that is continuous and differentiable on a certain section can, with some error, be represented on this section as a polynomial nth degree... The order of the polynomial n for experimental functions can be determined by the method of finite differences [b].

The tasks of experimental studies, indicated at the beginning of the section, were solved in the same sequence. For greater convenience, the methodology, procedure, and results obtained will be presented for each experiment separately. Here, we note that tests on real machines were carried out in a garage, that is, the equipment was in a closed room, the ambient temperature was + 12-15C, and before the measurements began, the pumps of the machines were idling for 10 minutes. The force with which the piezoelectric sensor pressed against the hydraulic line is -20N. The center of the sensor touched the hose in all measurements taken on the hose.

A necessary condition for the study of wave processes is empirical research on special laboratory stands and installations. In the field of oscillatory processes of hydraulic systems, complex systems with positive displacement pumps and hydraulic lines with distributed parameters are currently insufficiently studied.

To study these processes, a laboratory setup was developed and manufactured, shown in Fig. 3.1.

The unit consists of a vertical frame (1) installed on a stable base (2), a tank (3), a gear motor-pump BD-4310 (USA) (4), a safety valve (5), a suction (6) and pressure (7) lines, acceleration section (8), hydraulic shock absorber (9), control-load valve (throttle) (10), drain line (11), pressure sensor (12), pressure gauge (13), autotransformer (14), step-down transformer (15).

The adjustable parameters of the stand are: the length of the booster section, the speed of the electric motor and the drive shaft of the gear pump, the stiffness of the hydraulic shock absorber, the pressure drop across the load control valve, and the setting of the safety valve.

The measuring instruments of the stand are a pressure gauge (13), which records the pressure in the pressure line, a high-frequency strain gauge of pressure at the accelerating section, a CD-12M vibration analyzer, and a tachometer for measuring the speed of the electric motor shaft.

In addition, during the experiments, an oil change is provided, with the measurement of its parameters (in particular viscosity), as well as a change in the rigidity of the walls of the hydraulic lines of the accelerating section. There is a variant of incorporating bellows-type concentrated elasticity into the hydraulic circuit with the possibility of adjusting its natural vibration frequency using replaceable weights. Internal diameter of rigid hydraulic lines - 7 mm. The material of the hydraulic lines is steel 20.

The adjustment range of the stand in combination with replaceable equipment makes it possible to study resonant and antiresonant processes in a pressure hydraulic line, to determine the reduced reflection coefficients of waves from a pneumatic hydraulic shock absorber (9). Alternatively, a change in the temperature of the working fluid is provided to study its effect on the viscosity, elasticity and wave propagation speed.

The stand is made according to the block-modular scheme. The vertical part of the frame is designed with longitudinal guides, on which, on both sides, various components and assemblies of the hydraulic system under study can be mounted along the entire length. In particular, the installation of a bellows-type resonator is provided, which is connected to the control throttle and the drain line with a flexible high-pressure hose with a metal braid. In the longitudinal grooves of the lower part of the frame, the installation of various injection and control equipment is provided.

Recommendations for the implementation of the diagnostic method in the technological process

In addition to the spectral composition of the RL vibrations, and as a consequence, the vibrations of the walls of the hydraulic lines, it is of interest to measure the general level of vibrations. To study the hydrodynamic processes occurring in the hydraulic systems of the SDM, in particular, in the hydraulic systems of bulldozers based on the T-170M tractor, the total vibration level at the control points was measured.

The measurements were carried out with an AR-40 vibration accelerometer, the signal from which was fed to the input by an SD-12M vibration analyzer. The sensor was attached to the outer surface of the hydraulic line wall using a metal bracket.

When measuring the total level (OU), it was noticed that at the end of the process of raising or lowering the blade (at the time of stopping the hydraulic cylinders), the amplitude of oscillations (PIK) of the vibration accelerations of the hydraulic line wall increases sharply. This can be partially explained by the fact that at the moment the blade hits the ground, as well as at the moment the hydraulic cylinders stop when the blade is raised, vibration is transmitted to the bulldozer as a whole, including the walls of the hydraulic line.

However, one of the factors affecting the magnitude of the vibration acceleration of the walls of the hydraulic line may also be a water hammer. When the dozer blade, when lifting, reaches the uppermost position (or, when lowering, it stops on the ground), the hydraulic cylinder rod with the piston also stops. The working fluid moving in the hydraulic line, as well as in the rod cavity of the hydraulic cylinder (working to lift the blade), encounters an obstacle in its path, the inertial forces of the fluid pressure on the piston, the pressure in the rod cavity increases sharply, which leads to a water hammer. In addition, from the moment when the piston of the hydraulic cylinder has already stopped, and until the moment when the liquid through the safety valve goes to drain (until the safety valve is triggered), the pump continues to pump liquid into the working cavity, which also leads to an increase in pressure.

During the research, it was determined that the amplitude of the vibration accelerations of the pressure hydraulic line wall increases sharply both in the area directly adjacent to the pump (at a distance of about 30 cm from the latter) and in the area directly adjacent to the hydraulic cylinder. At the same time, the amplitude of vibration accelerations at the control points on the body of the bulldozer increased insignificantly. The measurements were carried out as follows. The bulldozer based on the T170M tractor was on a flat concrete floor. The sensor was sequentially fixed at control points: 1 - point on the pressure hydraulic line (flexible hydraulic line), directly adjacent to the pump; 2 - point on the pump casing (on the union), located at a distance of 30 cm from point 1.

Measurements of the PIK parameter were carried out in the process of lifting the dump, and the first two or three averaging were performed in the state idle work pump, that is, when the blade lift cylinder was at rest. When the blade was raised, the value of the PIK parameter began to increase. When the dump reached the extreme upper position, the PIK parameter reached its maximum (RR / T-maximum). After that, the dump was fixed in the extreme upper position, the PIK parameter dropped to the value it had at the beginning of the lifting process, that is, when the pump was idling (TJ / G-minimum). The interval between adjacent measurements was 2.3 s.

When measuring the PIK parameter at point 1 in the range from 5 to 500 Hz (Fig. 3.7.2) based on a sample of six measurements, the arithmetic mean ratio of the PIK maximum to the RN / G-minimum (PIKshks / PIKmt) is 2.07. When the standard deviation of the results is o \u003d 0.15.

From the data obtained, it can be seen that the kv coefficient is 1.83 times greater for point 1 than for point 2. Since points 1 and 2 are located at a small distance from each other, and point 2 is more rigidly connected to the pump casing than point 1, then you can assert: the vibrations at point 1 are largely due to pressure pulsations in the working fluid. And the maximum vibration at point 1, created at the moment the blade stops, is caused by a shock wave propagating from the hydraulic cylinder to the pump. If the vibration at points 1 and 2 was due to mechanical vibrations that occur at the time the blade stopped, then the vibration at point 2 would be greater.

Similar results were obtained when measuring the VCI parameter in the frequency range from 10 to 1000 Hz.

In addition, when conducting research on the section of the pressure hydraulic line immediately adjacent to the hydraulic cylinder, it was determined that the general level of vibrations of the hydraulic line wall is much higher than the general level of vibrations at the control points on the body of the bulldozer, located, for example, at a short distance from the attachment point of the hydraulic cylinder.

To prevent the occurrence of a water hammer, it is recommended to install damping devices in the section of the hydraulic line directly connected to the hydraulic cylinder, since the process of propagation of the hydraulic shock begins precisely from the working cavity of the latter, and then the shock wave propagates throughout the hydraulic system, which can lead to damage to its elements. Figure: 3.7.2. The general level of vibration at control point 1 (PIK-5-500 Hz) Fig. 3.7.3. General level of vibrations at control point 2 (pump nozzle) (PIK-5 - 500 Hz) Timing diagrams of pulsations of the outer surface of the pressure line wall in the process of lifting the blade of the DZ-171 bulldozer

A significant amount of information about dynamic processes in the working fluid can be obtained by measuring the parameters of its pulsations in real time. The measurements were taken while raising the dozer blade from rest to the uppermost position. Figure 3.7.4 shows a graph of the change in the vibration acceleration of the outer surface of the wall of the pressure line section, directly adjacent to the NSh-100 pump, depending on time. The initial section of the graph (0 t 3 s) corresponds to the idling of the pump. At the moment of time t \u003d 3 s, the bulldozer operator switched the distributor handle to the "lift" position. At this moment, a sharp increase in the amplitude of vibration accelerations of the hydraulic line wall followed. Moreover, not a single pulse of large amplitude was observed, but a cycle of such pulses. Of the 32 vibrograms obtained (on 10 different bulldozers of the specified brand), there were mainly 3 pulses of different amplitudes (the largest amplitude was in the second one). The interval between the first and second impulses was shorter in duration than the interval between the second and third (0.015 s versus 0.026), that is, the total pulse duration is 0.041 s. On the graph, these impulses merge into one, since the time between two adjacent impulses is rather short. The average amplitude of the maximum value of vibration acceleration increased on average by k \u003d 10.23 times as compared to the average value of vibration acceleration during the idling of the pump. The root-mean-square error was st \u003d 1.64. On similar graphs obtained when measuring the vibration accelerations of the pump nozzle wall connecting the high-pressure cavity of the latter with the pressure line, such a sharp jump in vibration accelerations is not observed (Fig. 3.7.4), which can be explained by the stiffness of the nozzle walls.

Hydraulic excavators have a very wide range of applications

  • Compared to other machines such as a bulldozer or a loader, an excavator can do a wide range of jobs from one point;
  • The ability to swivel at 3600 allows the excavator to easily work in confined spaces;
  • High dripping power allows the excavator to gently drip, dig trenches and form bases;
  • Since the work takes place practically without moving the machine, the wear of the running gear is minimal;
  • Easy change of working equipment allows you to use the excavator for a variety of tasks.

Using

  • Moving soil
  • Planning
  • Loosening
  • Loading
  • Layout

The working equipment of an excavator looks like a human hand and performs a similar function.

When replacing the bucket with other attachments, you can perform other miscellaneous work such as grabbing or chiselling


Excavator classification

Today, crawler excavators are mainly used because of their large footprint and high stability.

Advantages of tracked excavators

  • High stability
  • Ability to work on soft and uneven ground

Large footprint provides greater stability. This makes it easy to work on soft or uneven ground

Disadvantages of crawler excavators

  • Slow travel speed and mobility
  • Damage to the road surface

Low transport speed. If the machine is equipped with steel tracks, the road surface will be damaged while driving.


The excavator can be divided into 3 parts: work equipment, top and bottom

The upper part is based on the turntable frame



The turning system consists of:

  • Swing motor (turns the platform)
  • Swing gear (increases motor force and reduces swing speed)
  • Turntable (connects platform to crawler cart)
  • Center pivot link (transfers oil flow to bottom)

The turntable consists of two rings, one outer and one inner. The inner ring is firmly attached to the crawler frame and the outer ring is firmly attached to the turntable frame. The turntable is the link that transfers the load of the turntable with the implement to the undercarriage for stability.


The swivel link consists of a housing (stator) and a rotor

The rotor is attached to the track unit. The body is attached to the turntable and rotates with it

The oil from the control valve enters the link housing and flows through the annular channels into the rotor channels. Leaving the channels of the rotor through the hoses, the oil gets to the hydraulic motors.


The lower part consists of many different elements that are attached to a steel frame called the crawler frame


Excavator Hydraulic Power Line

During work, the operator can simultaneously perform several operations, such as moving the boom, stick, bucket, turning at the same time. In this case, several sections of the control valve operate simultaneously.

The undercarriage of a hydraulic excavator is significantly different from a bulldozer or loader, in which power is transmitted mechanically using a torque converter and gears


Just like the heart pumps blood, the excavator's hydraulic pump pumps oil for the hydraulic cylinders

To push out the handle, oil must be fed into the stem cavity

To fold the handle, oil must be fed into a rodless cavity


Main overflow valve

The main overflow valve keeps the pressure below a certain value by overflowing excess oil into the tank. When, during movement, the piston reaches the edge of the cylinder, it stops. As the oil continues to flow, the pressure in the system begins to build up, causing the hoses to burst. The main overflow valve in the system prevents pressure build-up to a critical level by overflowing the oil into the tank. The main overflow valve is located between the check valve and the hydraulic pump.


Safety valve

The safety valve serves to discharge oil into the tank if the pressure in the system exceeds the critical value. If a piece of rock falls on the boom and the control valve is in the neutral position, the pressure in the cylinder will immediately increase and cause the hoses to burst. To prevent the pressure from rising above a certain level, a safety valve is installed in the system. This valve is located after the control valve in front of the hydraulic cylinders.

Ground pressure

Ground pressure (kg / m 2) \u003d Excavator weight / Ground area

The ground pressure of a middle class excavator is not much greater than the ground pressure of a standing person

If a person can walk on the ground, then a middle class excavator can work there.


Example of using work equipment

1. Soft ground (wide shoes)
For work on soft ground, such as swampy ground, wide shoes are used to reduce ground pressure

2. Offset boom
If the machine does not stand in the center of the excavated object due to various obstacles on the sides, work is carried out with an excavator with a displaceable stick. This method is used for digging trenches (the offset stick does not change the direction of the digging axis, but shifts it to the side relative to the center of the machine)

3. Long range (extra long equipment)
When used with extra-long attachments, it allows work to be carried out in places where the machine cannot work with conventional attachments. Deepening of rivers, swamps, etc. Long slopes can also be graded

4. Grading of slopes (leveling bucket)
Grading of river slopes, roads and other objects can be easily done with a special flat-bottomed bucket.

5. Crushing (hydraulic hammer)
By using a hydraulic hammer, large rock debris after blasting can be crushed. You can also demolish concrete roads and buildings

6. Disposal of vehicles (hydraulic shears)
By using special hydraulic shears, vehicles can be disassembled into parts. These units can grab small pieces and sort the pieces for recycling.

7. Demolition of buildings (shears and hydraulic breakers)
The machine is equipped with extra-long working equipment and can carry out demolition work. With the shears, you can also cut the steel frame and structural members.

8. Logging (saws and grabs)
Excavators are used for procurement work. Grips with saws can take everything, including fallen trees, remove branches and sawed logs. Grips are used for loading operations.
