LS VALVE
Function
.
The
LS
valve controls the pump discharge amount
according to the amount of movement of the control
lever (that is the oil flow demanded bythe actuator).
.
The
LS
valve detects the oil flow demanded bythe
actuator from the differential pressure
D
P
LS
be-
tween main pump discharge pressure
P
P
and con-
trol valve outlet pressure
P
LS
, and controls main
pump discharge amount
Q
.
(
P
P
is called the pump pressure,
P
LS
is called the
LS
pressure, and
D
P
LS
is called the
LS
differential
pressure).
.
In other words, the pressure loss (=
LS
differential
pressure
D
P
LS
) generated bythe flow of oil from the
pump passing through opening area of the control
valve spool is detected.
Bycontrolling pump discharge amount
Q
so that
this pressure loss remains constant, a pump dis-
charge amount is supplied in accordance with the
demands of the control valve bycontrolling pump
discharge amount
Q
.
.
However, when carrying out fine control or in other
cases where the range does not exceed the maxi-
mum flow of the pump (the flow demanded bythe
control valve is always supplied), the discharge
amount is the same as when the engine is at high
idling, even if the engine is at low idling.
To overcome this, a function has been added to
automaticallylower the
LS
differential pressure
and reduce the discharge amount when the engine
is running at low idling.
.
The engine speed is detected bypressures
GH
and
GL
on both sides of the fixed throttle (metering
throttle) in the gear pump discharge passage.
This acts on
LS
valve No. 3 and No. 4 pressure re-
ceiving chambers
a2
and
b2
, and changes the
LS
setting. When the engine is running at low idling,
the gear pump discharge amount is reduced, so
pressures
GH
and
GL
on both sides of the metering
throttle become almost the same (the metering dif-
ferential pressure between
GH
and
GL
becomes
lower).
On the other hand, when the engine is run at full
throttle, the gear pump discharge amount is in-
creased and the metering differential pressure be-
comes higher.
.
When the metering pressure is high (engine
speed is high) the
LS
setting is made higher.
.
When the metering pressure is low (engine
speed is low) the
LS
setting is made lower.
