Track gearbox (EC240), description


Principle of operation
The gearbox consists of a three stage planetary mechanism that converts the high speed rotation of the hydraulic
motor, into low speed, high torque rotating force at the sprocket hub.
The power transmitted from the hydraulic motor output shaft is transmitted to the 1st stage sun gear (39) → spline
of 1st carrier (28) → 2nd sun gear (31) → 2nd planetary gear (22) → spline of 2nd carrier → 3rd sun gear (19) →
3rd planetary gear (10) → ring gear (3). At this time, the reduction ratio of reduction gear is as follows : (1) 1st
reduction ratio i 1 = (Zs1+Zr1) · (Zs2+Zr) · (Zs3+Zr) / Zs1·Zs2·Zs3 – 1
Zs1 = No. of tooth of 1st sun gear
Zs2 = No. of tooth of 2nd sun gear
Zs3 = No. of tooth of 3rd sun gear
Zr1 = No. of tooth of 1st ring gear
Zr= No. of tooth of ring gear

Slew gearbox (EC240), principle of operation


The 2–stage planetary gear reduction assembly converts the high speed / low torque output of the hydraulic motor
to low speed / high torque output, which is transmitted via the reduction drive shaft pinion gear to the slew ring
inner circumference gear to rotate the superstructure.
Operation
Power supplied to the output shaft of the hydraulic motor is transmitted to the 2nd sun gear (18) through the
splines of the 1st sun gear (32), the 1st planetary gear (23), the 1st pin (24) and the 1st carrier (22). In the same
way, power is transmitted to output shaft (2) through the splines of the 2nd planetary gear (3), the 2nd pin (4) and
the 2nd carrier.

Figure 1 Slew gearbox (EC240)


A. Torque flow
At this time, the reduction ratio of reduction gear is as follows :
· 1st reduction ratio
i1 = (Zr / ZS1) + 1
i1 = 1st reduction ratio
ZS1 = No. of gear tooth of the 1st sun gear
Zr = No. of tooth of the 1st ring gear
· 2nd reduction ratio
i2 = (Zr / ZS2) + 1
i2 = 2nd reduction ratio
ZS2 = No. of gear tooth of the 2nd sun gear
Accordingly the total reduction ratio of reduction gear is as follows : i = i1 × ι2= ((Zr / ZS 1) + 1) × ((Zr / ZS2 ) + 1)
i = Total reduction ratio

The mechanical power from the engine is converted to hydraulic power by the main pumps.
Hydraulic power from the main pumps goes to the track motors, slew motor and hydraulic
cylinders via the control valve, where it is converted back to mechanical power, which actuates
the travel action, slew action and digging units.

Hydraulic circuits, straight travel / arm


(straight travel auto shift, arm in)
· When the left, right travel pedals are operated to “ FORWARD ” secondary servo hydraulic oil flows to main
control valve (br3) and (bl4) ports, respectively. When control lever is operated to “ARM IN”, secondary servo
hydraulic oil flows to port (al3), (al31), (al32), (p31), (4Pi), and oil from (p31) port flows to (a) port through
solenoid valve A3 on block (12).
· Servo hydraulic pressure explained below, is for straight travel and related operation only.
· P1(PR) pump oil is supplied to right travel, and P2(P L) to left travel. In traveling, straight travel changeover
valve (38) is closed.
· Operating “ARM IN” during traveling, primary servo hydraulic pressure from (Pg1) is blocked by the travel
spool and arm spool at main control valve 4–spool valve, the pressure in (Px2) line connected to straight
travel changeover valve increases, pushing the spool to the left opening the valve.
· When oil lines of P1(PR) and P2(PL) are connected as straight travel valve is opened, oil in pump P1(P R) and
P2(PL) flows as follows :

{(P1-Po)+orifice(B)}+{P2-orifice(A)}/2

so equal flow is supplied to both motors to maintain straight travel.


· Negative lines Fr and Fl are cut off, so oil delivery rate of P1/P2 pumps are increased.
Figure 1 Straight travel / arm (straight travel auto shift, arm in)

Hydraulic circuits, straight travel (low / auto shift)

42. When both travel pedals are operated “ FORWARD ” secondary servo hydraulic oil is
routed from the remote control valve as follows :
1. (br3) oil flows to the main control valve moving the spool to the right, routing P1
pump flow to port(B) on the right travel motor.
2. (bl4) oil flows to the main control valve moving the spool to the left, routing P2 pump flow
to port (A) on the left travel motor.
43. Travel function (as selected by rocker switch)
o 1st speed fixed : Constant low speed, primary servo hydraulic pressure (P2) to port (ph)
of the changeover valve is blocked by solenoid valve A3 on block (11).
o 1st/2nd speed auto shift : solenoid A3 activated and primary servo hydraulic oil (P2)
flows to port (ph) of the changeover valve and travel speed is automatically selected
according to the load on the motor.
1. Low speed
o Pressure of travel motor is more than 260 kgf/cm 2
o Not traveling
2. High speed : When the pressure of travel motor is less than 260kgf/cm 2, primary
servo hydraulic pressure pushes travel speed changeover valve, and travel motor pressure
reduces swash plate angle, so rpm is increased.
o (Pg1) oil is applied to switch (28) to input the signal to controller, so auto idle and
pressure boost function can be used. Circuit connected to main control valve
inside operates straight travel valve.
o The functions of travel motor are brake, anti-cavitation, low/high auto change,
and overspeed prevention. (See travel motor)
o As traveling, main pressure boost is done by controller automatically.
o Negative lines of Fr and Fl are cut off to increase oil delivery rate of P1/P2
pumps.

Pump, principle of operation
This pump assembly consists of two pumps connected by spline coupling (114). The two pumps are driven
simultaneously as the engine rotation is transmitted to the front drive shaft (111).
The suction and delivery ports are integrated at the connecting section of the two pumps, in valve block
(312) : The common suction port serves both the front and rear pumps.
Structure and operating principle of front and rear pump is the same so front pump only will be explained. The
pump consists of rotary group, swash plate group and valve block group.
The rotary group consists of front drive shaft (111), cylinder block (141), piston and shoe (151, 152), set plate
(153), spherical bushing (156), spacer (158), and cylinder spring (157). The drive shaft is supported by
bearings (123, 124). The shoe is caulked to the piston to form a spherical coupling. It has a pocket to relieve
thrust force generated by loading pressures and create a hydraulic balance so that it slides lightly over shoe
plate (211).
The sub group composed of a piston and a shoe is pressed against the shoe plate by the action of the
cylinder spring through the set plate and spherical bushing. Similarly, the cylinder block is pressed against
valve plate (313) by the action of the cylinder spring.
The swash plate group consists of swash plate (212), shoe plate (211), swash plate support (251), tilting bushing
(214), tilting pin (531) and servo piston (532). The swash plate is supported by a cylindrical part on the
opposite side of its sliding surface and swash plate support (251).
The servo piston moves to the right and the left as hydraulic oil controlled by the regulator flows to a hydraulic
chamber located on both sides of the servo piston. The force exerted on the tilting pin by the servo piston
causes the swash plate to slide on support (251) to change the tilting angle (a).
The valve block group consists of valve block (312), valve plate (313) and valve plate pin (885). The valve plate
which has two crescent ports is attached to the valve block to feed oil to and collect oil from the cylinder block.
The oil discharged via the valve plate is routed to an external pipe line by way of the valve block.
The pump shaft driven by the engine, rotates the cylinder block via the splined bore. If the swash plate is tilted the
pistons arranged in the cylinder block make a reciprocating motion with respect to the cylinder block, while
they revolve with the cylinder block.
A single piston will perform a 180° motion away from the valve plate (oil suction stroke) and then make
another 180° motion towards the valve plate (oil discharging stroke) as the cylinder block rotates. When the
swash plate tilting angle is zero, the piston does not stroke or discharge oil.

Adjustment of maximum flow
Adjust it by loosening hexagon nut (809) and by tightening (or loosening) adjusting screw (954).
Only the maximum flow is adjusted without changing other control characteristics.
For the location of adjusting screw and nut, see [Invalid linktarget].

Figure 6 Adjustment of maximum flow


X : Servo hydraulic pressure Pi
Y : Delivery flow, Q
Adjustment of minimum flow
Adjust it by loosening hexagon nut (808) and by tightening (or loosening) adjusting screw (953).
Similar to the adjustment of the maximum flow, other characteristics are not changed. However, if tightened too
much, the required horsepower for the maximum delivery pressure (or for relief) may increase.

Automatic control system, description


The advanced control system (ACS) comprised of input components (sensors, switches), V-
ECU, and output components (actuators) continuously control the machine performance to
correspond to a built-in program.
The control system is manually controlled via an override switch so it can be operated on
automatic (normal position) or manual mode. MANUAL mode should only be used as an
emergency when the machine is abnormality on automatic mode.
The functions of the automatic control system are as follows :
Self diagnosing
Machine status indication
Mode selection : engine speed and work mode
Engine speed sensing power control
Automatic idling
Power boost
Safety start / stop
Travel speed selection
Automatic engine warm-up
Pump flow control

The automatic control system is sensitive to contamination and must be protected from the
penetration of moisture, lubricants and dust. The ACS electronic components must also be
protected from over-voltage, therefore it is imperative that precautions concerning the charging
system and welding procedures be strictly adhered to.

Automatic idling, description
Automatic idling function is activated by pressing the auto idling switch (7).
When this function is activated, the V-ECU (1) analyzes the operating status of the hydraulic circuits with the
feedback signals of the digging unit port pressure switch (10), travel port pressure switch (11) and rotator
switches (15,16, option). If there is not any operation for 5 seconds, the V-ECU reduces engine speed to the
auto idle setting value.
After the engine has decelerated, if the operator touches one of the remote control valves (joysticks, pedals) or
turns the engine speed control switch (2) or pushes one of the rotator switches, the V-ECU increases the
engine speed to the selected speed of the engine speed control switch.
Auto idling is working when the engine speed control switch is on the 3 - 9 step.
This function reduces fuel consumption and lowers noise levels, enhancing operator comfort and machine
profitability.

The D-ECU display the value that the V-ECU receives or outputs. Especially, for items based on the V-
ECU output value, the value may differ from the actual operating value of machine components. When
the operating condition of the equipment is abnormal, confirm by actually measuring the machine, then
compare with the value displayed on the D-ECU, and judge whether it is normal or abnormal.

Mode selection & engine speed sensing power control, description
The engine speed control switch (2) allows the operator to select the engine speed and work mode according to the
working condition and environment to optimize the machine performance and fuel efficiency.
This is accomplished by turning the engine speed control switch to vary its output voltage to the V-ECU (1),
0.5~+4.5V. The V-ECU then establishes an appropriate pulse signal value to rotate the stepping motor (20), to
the correct rotary angle, to position the fuel injection pump lever, to obtain the engine speed to match mode
speed requirement. the throttle position sensor (14, potentiometer) confirms the angle to the V-ECU for greater
accuracy.
The V-ECU continuously receives the current engine speed from engine speed sensor (13). It balances engine
output horsepower and hydraulic pump drive horsepower by changing the pump swash angle with driving the
power shift proportional solenoid valve (21) to keep pump torque below the engine torque developed at the
selected engine speed. this is called engine speed sensing power control (ESSPC) and working P, H and G
modes.
P mode (Full duty operation)
P (Power max.) mode functions on the power max. mode switch (8) ON with step-9 of the engine speed control
switch (2) to maximize the working capacity and working speed by utilizing 100% of the rated engine output
horsepower.
This mode is for heavy duty excavating operation which require powerful digging and lifting force.
H mode (Heavy duty operation)
H mode functions on step-9 of the engine speed control switch (2) and the power max. mode switch (8) OFF to
increase the working capacity and working speed by utilizing 95% of the rated engine output horsepower.
This mode is for slightly heavy duty excavating operation which require powerful digging and lifting force.
G mode (General duty operation)
G mode functions over a 3 step range as follows : Step 6/7/8 utilize 90% of the rated engine output horsepower
and is recommended for general duty operations that are below the level which require maximum engine output.
These positions provide the most efficient, fuel saving, economical machine performance for general excavating
and loading operations.
F mode (Fine duty operation)
F mode functions over a 3 step range as follows : Step 3/4/5 utilize 70% of the rated engine output horsepower,
however at each step this mode outputs a constant current to the power shift proportional solenoid valve (21) on
the hydraulic pump to set and hold the swash plate angle for consistent pump discharge. At the same time, the V-
ECU activates the boom and arm conflux cut-off solenoid valves (23, 24) and shut off summation of the two
hydraulic pumps when operating the boom or arm. Also, the V-ECU activates the boost solenoid valve (26). It
provides fine controllability for precise smooth movements and maximum lifting force at mid-range engine speeds.
This mode is recommended for finishing/levelling work and when fine precision control of the boom and arm is
essential.
I mode (Idling operation)
I mode functions over a 2 step range as follows : Both steps minimize the output of the pumps.
Step-1 is the low idle speed set at engine starting. Step-2 is the auto idle speed and is available if the auto idling
switch (7) is in the ON position.

Travel speed selection, description
High speed mode
Travel speed modes can be selected according to the soil condition and the type of work.
If the travel speed selection switch (5) is in the high (travel symbol) position, 1st  and  2nd automatic speed
change position, the swash plate of the travel motor will be automatically changed. the traveling speed is
controlled automatically to the 1st (low) or 2nd (high) speed according to load on motor.
Low speed mode
If the travel speed selection switch (5) is on the low (no symbol) or the engine speed control switch (2) is on the F
mode position (3 - 5 steps), the travel speed is held in 1st speed, regardless of the load on the travel motor.

When loading the machine onto a transport, or when precise travel operation is required the travel mode
switch must be in the low position to prevent an abrupt change of travel speed, since it could result in an
accident.
Travel speed selecting operation
Switch position Feature
Low speed mode Traveling locked in 1st speed.
(1st speed fixed) Fine control mode, speed is fixed.
High speed mode Traveling Automatic speed change to between 1st and 2nd according to the effort required
(automatic 1st/2nd to move the machine.
speed change) Stopped Automatically sets the swash angle to 1st speed.
The low speed / high torque position provides more stability on a slope as it
requires greater external forces to rotate the motor.
Although the auto/manual switch (3) is in the MANU position, the travel speed selection function is available using
the travel speed selection switch (5) and operate as described when the machine is traveling. When the machine
is stopped the swash angle is NOT automatically set to 1st speed position.
