• Urea SCR system is a device which converts toxic nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust gas into harmless
nitrogen and water.
• By spraying AdBlue/DEF into the exhaust gas, it decomposes and hydrolyzes to form ammonia (NH3) and
the ammonia selectively reacts with nitrogen oxides for the conversion to nitrogen and water.

• AdBlue/DEF system consists of AdBlue/DEF tank (1),
AdBlue/DEF hoses (2), (4), (5), AdBlue/DEF pump (3), and
AdBlue/DEF injector (6).
• The AdBlue/DEF system is a part of the Komatsu Urea
SCR system and its function is to provide AdBlue/DEF into
the SCR Catalyst Assembly.
• However, the comprising devices, such as the AdBlue/DEF
pump, may not start functioning till certain conditions are
fulfilled.
• The AdBlue/DEF system has heating systems to thaw and prevent AdBlue/DEF from freezing because
AdBlue/DEF freezes at -11 °C.

10-8 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION FUNCTION OF UREA SCR SYSTEM

Function of AdBlue/DEF injection system


• The AdBlue/DEF pump pressurizes AdBlue/DEF and delivers it into the AdBlue/DEF mixing tube through
the AdBlue/DEF injector.
• The amount of AdBlue/DEF injection is controlled by the Engine Controller.
• The amount of AdBlue/DEF injection is calculated based on the information of the turbocharger outlet NOx
sensor, the SCR catalyst temperature sensor, the SCR outlet temperature sensor, the ammonia sensor, the
SCR outlet NOx sensor and the exhaust gas flow rate.
• AdBlue/DEF injection is also controlled by the system temperature because Urea SCR systems are not ef-
fective in low temperature. For the monitoring of the system temperature, the KDPF outlet temperature sen-
sor is used in addition to the SCR temperature sensors.
• If any abnormality is detected in any of the sensors that are used for the calculation of the amount of AdBl-
ue/DEF injection and the monitoring of the system temperature, the Engine Controller commands termina-
tion of AdBlue/DEF injection. When this occurs, alerts will be activated and failure codes will be registered.
• Some abnormalities may cause large amount of urea precipitation inside the AdBlue/DEF mixing tube and
result in deposit of urea on the inner surfaces. If it continues and urea deposit accumulates AdBlue/DEF
injection can be blocked at the AdBlue/DEF injector or the exhaust gas flow can be choked in the passag-
es.
Function of purge system
• The AdBlue/DEF purging is incorporated to purge remain-
ing AdBlue/DEF in the AdBlue/DEF injector, AdBlue/DEF
hoses and the AdBlue/DEF pump to prevent AdBlue/DEF
from solidifying inside by precipitation or freezing.
• The AdBlue/DEF purging is activated automatically when
the engine is shut down or the ambient temperature falls
so low that the heating systems is not capable of maintain-
ing fluidity of AdBlue/DEF.
• In the case of the AdBlue/DEF purging of the engine shut-
down, the purging operation continues several minutes af-
ter the engine stops. Once the purging operation com-
pletes, the Engine Controller shuts itself down automatical-
ly.
NOTICE
Do not turn the battery disconnect switch to the OFF posi-
tion till the System Operating Lamp in the battery box goes
out. The System Operating Lamp will go out when the sys-
tem shuts itself down after the purging operation com-
pletes.
Function of heating system
• The AdBlue/DEF heating system has two operation modes.
• One operation mode is “Thaw mode”.
• At engine start-up if the Engine Controller judges AdBlue/DEF is frozen, it automatically commands
heating the AdBlue/DEF injection system.
• The AdBlue/DEF pump and the AdBlue/DEF injector hold their operation till the Engine Controller judg-
es the completion of AdBlue/DEF thawing operation.
• The other operation mode is “Freeze Prevention mode”.
• While the machine is in operation if the Engine Controller judges AdBlue/DEF is likely to freeze, it auto-
matically commands heating the AdBlue/DEF system.
• While the heating is on during machine operation if the Engine Controller judges that cooling by the
ambient exceeds the heating capacity of the system, it automatically starts AdBlue/DEF purging and

D155AXI-8 10-9
FUNCTION OF UREA SCR SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

shuts down the operation of the AdBlue/DEF pump and the AdBlue/DEF injector. However, the heating
system is kept on as long as the machine is in operation.
• “Thaw mode” and “Freeze Prevention mode” are controlled by utilizing information by temperature sensors.
The temperature sensors used for the control of two modes are different and the temperature Freeze Pre-
vention modesensors utilized by the comprising devices are different. The following table shows which com-
prising device uses which heating system and which temperature sensors in relation to which operation
mode.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY
• The purpose of inducement is to prompt the operator to perform maintenance or repair on the emissions
control system.
• Inducement strategy is a control action to ensure prompt correction of various failures in the engine emis-
sions control system. It requires actions to limit engine performance and defines required indication such as
warning lamps and messages, as well as alarms while the control actions are imposed. The warning steps
of Inducement are different between for North America and for European Union.
• The categories of abnormalities that have triggered Inducement are displayed on the “SCR Information”
screen of the machine monitor.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY WHEN THE AdBlue/DEF LEVEL IN THE TANK BE-


COMES LOW (FOR NORTH AMERICA)
• When the AdBlue/DEF level in the tank becomes low, AdBlue/DEF level caution lamp on the machine moni-
tor lights up, the Audible alert sounds, the action level is displayed and Inducement strategy including en-
gine power deration is activated.
• The Inducement strategy progresses in 5 levels from Warning, Escalated Warning, Mild Inducement, Se-
vere Inducement and Final Inducement.
• Up to the start of Severe Inducement the start of each warning step is triggered by the amount of
AdBlue/DEF in the AdBlue/DEF tank. Final Inducement starts at 1 hour after the start of Severe Inducement
if the machine continues its operation without adding AdBlue/DEF into the tank, and reduces the engine
speed to low idle and keeps it at low idle.
• The Inducement strategy status can be checked on “SCR Information” screen of the user menu.
• The table shows warning indications and engine power derations by each Inducement strategy status.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY WHEN ABNORMALITY IS FOUND IN THE UREA SCR


SYSTEM DEVICES (FOR NORTH AMERICA)
• When any abnormality is found in the AdBlue/DEF quality or in the Urea SCR system tampering or fault,
AdBlue/DEF system caution lamp on the machine monitor lights up, the Audible alert sounds. If time has
elapsed after any abnormality is generated, not only the warning by AdBlue/DEF caution lamp on the ma-
chine monitor and Audible alert, but also an action level is displayed, Inducement strategy is activated and
then the engine output is reduced.
• The Inducement strategy status and the categories of abnormalities can be checked on the “SCR Informa-
tion” screen of the machine monitor.
• For detailed information on the displayed failure codes, refer to Troubleshooting section, “Troubleshooting
points (Inducement failure code list)”.
• The table shows warning indications and engine power derations by each Inducement strategy status.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY WHEN ABNORMALITY IS FOUND IN THE KDPF SYS-


TEM BY THE UREA SCR SYSTEM (FOR NORTH AMERICA)
• The Inducement strategy is different if Inducement is triggered by abnormalities in KDPF. Although the total
steps are the same and 5, warning indications are different and engine power deration starts from that of
“Mild Inducement (Over 25% torque reduction)”. The following graph and table show how the Inducement
caused by abnormalities in KDPF advances from “Warning” to “Final Inducement”.
• The codes in the KDPF abnormality category are CA4151, CA4158, CA4161, CA4162, CA4259, CA3319,
CA3321 and CA3322.

FUNCTION OF TEMPORARY RESTORATION FROM INDUCEMENT (FOR NORTH


AMERICA)
• Temporary Restoration from Inducement is one of the Inducement strategies allowed to be included in Urea
SCR systems. In case the Urea SCR system advances to “Severe Inducement”, engine power is derated
heavily. This may cause difficulties of moving the machine to a safe place for adding AdBlue/DEF or trou-
bleshooting and correcting abnormalities of the Urea SCR system. For temporary remedies from these diffi-
culties the operator can restore engine power for a short time to the deration of “Mild Inducement” through
the machine monitor. Note that “Temporary Restoration from Inducement” does not regain full engine pow-
er.
• “Temporary Restoration from Inducement” can be activated only when the Urea SCR system is in “Severe
Inducement”. The maximum duration is limited to 30 minutes in each restoration operation, and 3 opera-
tions are allowed, but “Temporary Restoration from Inducement” is turned off whenever the system advan-
ces to “Final Inducement” even if either 30 minutes or 3 operations are not used up. All the abnormalities of
the Urea SCR system need to be corrected to regain another restoration capability.
• If all the abnormalities of the Urea SCR system are not corrected when the system is in “Severe Induce-
ment”, the system advances to “Final Inducement” in 1 hour after “Severe Inducement” started and engine
speed will be fixed to low idle to disable practical machine operation.

10-14 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION FUNCTION OF UREA SCR SYSTEM

• To activate Temporary Restoration, follow the procedures described below.


1. Press F6 while the “Standard” screen is displayed on the machine monitor. The “SCR Information”
screen shall show up with the pop-up window A in the bottom half and later the pop-up window B repla-
ces the window A.
2. Press F6 again while the “window B” is on. “Engine Power Recovery” window shall show up.
3. Press F6 again while the “Engine Power Recovery” window is on. Temporary Restoration from Induce-
ment starts and engine power deration is brought back to the level of “Mild Inducement”.
NOTICE
The “SCR Information” screen is on only for 30 seconds. When the “Standard” screen is replaced by
the “SCR Information” screen by pressing F6, the “window A” first shows up and is on for the first 15
seconds. The “window B” replaces “window A” for the next 15 seconds, then the “window A” comes
back in the last 15 seconds, and the “SCR Information” screen will be replaced automatically by the
“Standard” screen unless F6 is pressed while the “window B” is on.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY FOR ABNORMALITY RECURRENCE WITHIN 40


HOURS (FOR NORTH AMERICA)
• The Urea SCR system continuously monitors its operation conditions and stores information on inappropri-
ate operations including malfunctions.
• The stored information is utilized to monitor recurrences of abnormalities, “Abnormality Counter”. “Abnor-
mality Counter” is required by the authorities. The abnormality counting spans 40 hours and it monitors the
abnormalities that trigger Inducement other than the amount of AdBlue/DEF in the tank.
• If another abnormality/abnormalities is detected within 40 hours after the previous abnormalities were cor-
rected, regardless of the level of the previous Inducement and whether the new abnormality/abnormalities
is the same as the previous ones or not, it is judged as a recurrence.
• If a recurrence occurs, the Inducement strategy will be activated and starts from “Severe Inducement”.
• The duration of “Severe Inducement” in the recurrence is limited to 30 minutes. If the abnormalities are not
corrected while Inducement is in “Severe Inducement (30 minutes)”, Inducement will advance to “Final In-
ducement” and engine speed will be fixed to low idle to disable practical machine operation.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY WHEN THE AdBlue/DEF LEVEL IN THE TANK BE-


COMES LOW (FOR EUROPEAN UNION)
• When the AdBlue/DEF level in the tank becomes low, AdBlue/DEF level caution lamp on the machine moni-
tor lights up, the Audible alert sounds, the action level is displayed and Inducement strategy including en-
gine power deration is activated.
• The Inducement strategy progresses in 4 levels from Warning, Continuous Warning, Low-Level Induce-
ment, and Severe Inducement.
• Up to the start of Severe Inducement the start of each warning step is triggered by the amount of
AdBlue/DEF in the AdBlue/DEF tank. Final Inducement starts at 1 hour after the start of Severe Inducement
if the machine continues its operation without adding AdBlue/DEF into the tank, and reduces the engine
speed to low idle and keeps it at low idle.
• The Inducement strategy status can be checked on “SCR Information” screen of the user menu.
• The table shows warning indications and engine power derations by each Inducement strategy status.

INDUCEMENT STRATEGY WHEN ABNORMALITY IS FOUND IN THE UREA SCR


SYSTEM DEVICES (FOR EUROPEAN UNION)
• When any abnormality is found in the AdBlue/DEF quality or in the Urea SCR system tampering or fault,
SCR system caution lamp on the machine monitor lights up, the Audible alert sounds. If time has elapsed
after any abnormality is generated, not only the warning by AdBlue/DEF caution lamp on the machine moni-
tor and Audible alert, but also an action level is displayed, Inducement strategy is activated and then the
engine output is reduced.
• The Inducement strategy status and the categories of abnormalities can be checked on the “SCR Informa-
tion” screen of the machine monitor.
• For detailed information on the displayed failure codes, refer to Troubleshooting section, “Troubleshooting
points (Inducement failure code list)”.

• SCR assembly consists of the following: The inlet unit (1) which introduces the exhaust gas and equalize
the distribution of flow speed, the upstream SCR catalyst unit (2) which stores upstream SCR catalyst, the
downstream SCR catalyst unit (3) which stores downstream SCR catalyst and ammonia oxidation catalyst,
the outlet unit (9) which discharges the exhaust gas and as well as prevents rainwater from entering
through outlet into downstream SCR catalyst unit (3).
• Ammonia oxidation catalyst (17) oxidizes ammonia to water and nitrogen to prevent ammonia which is sup-
plied to SCR assembly from being released out because SCR catalysts (15) and (16) cannot completely
consume it.
• Each 1 piece of SCR temperature sensor (5), SCR outlet temperature sensor (10), ammonia sensor (4),
and SCR outlet NOx sensor (11) are installed. These sensors are usable for various troubleshooting, such
as they are used to control the feedback of denitration efficiency or they monitor that SCR catalyst properly
functions or not.
• Rectifying plate (14) equalizes the distribution of exhaust gas flow speed.
• SCR catalysts (15) and (16) use the ceramic honeycomb.
• The catalyzer holding mat (18) is made of a specific fiber and protects the ceramic catalyst against vibra-
tions by the engine and the machine body. It also restrains the temperature of outer periphery of SCR as-
sembly from becoming high caused by a heat transfer of the ceramics during operation.
• Water dam (19) is located at the upstream side of the outlet and prevents rainwater from entering into
downstream SCR catalyst unit (3).
• Water baffle (20) is located at the downstream side of the outlet and prevents rainwater at outlet from
splashing over the detection part of NOx sensor.

FUNCTION OF SYSTEM OPERATING LAMP SYSTEM


The operation state of each controller is checked by ON/OFF of the system operating lamp.
This lamp is lit while any controller is in operation. Accordingly, the operator must not shut off the battery power
circuit while this lamp is lit.
ON and OFF of system operating lamp
• Voltage of 24 V is constantly applied to one side of system operating lamp (LED (Light Emitting Diode)).
• When any controller is in operation, the controller side outputs Low (0 V), and a current flows through the
diode and the system operating lamp lights up.
• When all controllers are stopped, the controller side outputs High (24 V), and no current flows through the
diode and the system operating lamp goes off.
NOTICE
• Before shutting off the battery power supply circuit, turn the starting switch to “OFF” position, and
check that the system operating lamp goes out, then turn the battery disconnect switch to “OFF”
position.
• If the battery disconnect switch is turned to “OFF” position (battery power supply circuit is OFF)
while the system operating lamp is lit, data loss error of controller may occur. Never operate the bat-
tery disconnect switch while the system operating lamp is lit.
• When you want to cut off the battery circuit for maintenance but the system operating lamp is kept
lit, turn the starting switch to “ON” position once, and then turn it to “OFF” position, and the lamp
goes out in max. 6 minutes.
After the system operating lamp goes out, turn the battery disconnect switch immediately to “OFF”
position.

D155AXI-8 10-31
SYSTEM OPERATING LAMP SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

REMARK
• The system operating lamp may look slightly luminous in the dark after it is turned off. It is due to the minute
leakage of current and not an abnormal phenomenon.
• KOMTRAX terminal performs communication periodically even if the starting switch is kept in “OFF” position,
thus it starts and stops repeatedly.
The start and stop cycle (sleep cycle) of KOMTRAX terminal varies depending on the factors including the
communication state and machine stop time. So the lamp can be lit as long as approximately 1 hour.
• The system operating lamp goes out in max. 6 minutes after the starting switch is turned to “OFF” position.
• After the engine is stopped, AdBlue/DEF in AdBlue/DEF injector or AdBlue/DEF pump is automatically
sucked into AdBlue/DEF tank to prevent malfunction caused by freezing of AdBlue/DEF or deposition of
urea. Accordingly, the system operating lamp keeps lit for a while after the starting switch is turned to “OFF”
position, and this is normal.

• When handling the battery
• When replacing the fuse, etc.
• When battery disconnect switch (1) is turned to OFF position (the contact is opened), all the continuous
power supplies for the components, including the starting switch B terminal and controllers, are all cut out,
and the condition is the same as the condition when the battery is not connected. Accordingly, all of the
electrical system of the machine does not operate.
NOTICE
• Do not turn OFF battery disconnect switch (1) while the system operating lamp is lit.
If battery disconnect switch (1) is turned OFF while the system operating lamp is lit, the data in the
controller may be lost and the controller may be damaged seriously.
• Do not turn OFF battery disconnect switch (1) while the engine is running or immediately after the
engine is stopped.
If battery disconnect switch (1) is turned OFF while the alternator is generating power, the generated
current has nowhere to go, leading to overvoltage in the electrical system of the machine, which may
cause serious damage to the electrical system, including the electric devices and controllers.

FUNCTION OF ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM

• The engine controller receives the fuel control dial signals of the 1st throttle, decelerator pedal signals of
the 2nd throttle, and 3rd throttle signals which are the control signals from the power train controller, and
then controls the fuel supply pump corresponding to the command signals of the lowest engine speed.
• The 3rd throttle control signals are deceleration in reverse travel, deceleration in neutral, etc.
• The power train controller calculates a proper engine speed from information of deceleration in reverse
travel, deceleration in neutral, etc., and sends it as the 3rd throttle signal to the engine controller.
• The information of the engine controller is shared with the other controllers through the network and used
for the optimum control of the engine and machine.
• Deceleration in reverse travel is the function that restricts the idle engine speed to adjust reverse speed to
the set speed when reverse slow mode is selected.
• Deceleration in neutral is a function to limit the high idle speed while the transmission is in neutral.

FUNCTION OF DAMPER
• The damper, decreases the torsional vibration caused by the change in engine torque and the impact tor-
que generated when accelerating suddenly or when performing heavy-duty digging. In this way, it acts to
protect the torque converter, transmission, and other parts of the power train.
• The damper uses a rubber coupling, so the vibration is absorbed by the damping effect of the rubber mate-
rial. Also, the damper has few component parts.

OPERATION OF DAMPER

1. The power from the engine is transmitted to outer body (2) through flywheel (1).
2. The power transmitted to outer body (2) is transmitted to inner body (4) through rubber coupling (3) which
absorbs the torsional vibration of the engine.
3. The power transmitted to inner body (4) is transmitted through universal joint (5) to the torque converter and
transmission.

• The exhaust gas regulations are applied to the exhaust gas from the engine running at low speed, as well
as at high speed. To meet this, the EGR ratio is improved. (EGR ratio = Ratio of amount of EGR to amount
of fresh suction air)
• To attain high EGR ratio, turbine inlet pressure (P3) must be set higher than boost pressure (P2) (P3 > P2).
For this reason, the variable turbocharger (KVGT) is employed, in which the exhaust gas pressure acting
on turbine impeller (T) is adjustable.
Also, since the boost pressure increases more quickly, generation of particulate caused by lack of oxygen
during low-speed operation (rotation) is reduced.
• The shaft joined to turbine impeller (T) drives blower impeller (C) and sends much air to the cylinder for
combustion.
If KVGT (2) sends more air, the fuel injection rate can be increased, thus the engine output is increased.
In addition, the air cooled by aftercooler becomes dense, that is, more oxygen is supplied, thus the fuel in-
jection rate can be increased and the engine output is increased.
NOTICE
Adequate amount of clean high quality oil is required to maintain KVGT performance. Be sure to use
Komatsu genuine high quality oil. Follow the procedures in the Operation and Maintenance Manual
when replacing oil or oil filter.

10-46 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF ENGINE SYSTEM

OPERATION OF KVGT

1. The exhaust gas enters (C) of turbine housing (4) and flows out through portion (P) and (D). Portion (P) is
surrounded by plate (5) fixed to turbine housing, nozzle ring (7), and vanes (6).
The area of its passage is changed by sliding push rod (8) to the right or left.
2. Hydraulic actuator (3) moves piston (12) in the actuator up and down with the hydraulic pressure controlled
by EPC valve installed to the front cover, and slides push rod (8) to the right and left.
3. The exhaust gas flowing through vanes (6) rotates blower impeller (10) through shaft (9) joined to turbine
impeller (11). As the result, the blower impeller works as a compressor, and the intake air entering through
(A) is compressed and discharge through (B).
4. When the exhaust gas pressure at inlet (C) of turbine housing (4) is low (engine speed is in low range),
push rod (8) slides to the right and narrows portion (P).
5. The exhaust gas acting on turbine impeller (11) increases, the turbocharger speed increases, and more air
(oxygen) is taken in.
KVGT speed sensor (2) detects the rotation of the turbocharger.
When nozzle ring is "closed"
1. During low speed operation (rotation), exhaust gas inlet
passage (P) is narrow (L1). (It is not fully closed, however.)
2. If the turbine inlet pressure increases while the nozzle ring
is closed, the turbine inflow speed increases, and accord-
ingly the turbocharger speed increases.

D155AXI-8 10-47
COMPONENT PARTS OF ENGINE SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

When nozzle ring is "open"


1. During high speed operation (rotation), exhaust gas inlet
passage (P) is wide (L2).
2. As the engine speed increases and the turbine inlet pres-
sure (exhaust gas pressure) increases exhaust gas inlet
passage (P) is widened (L2) so that the exhaust gas acts
on turbine impeller (11) efficiently.
REMARK
• Nozzle ring (7), vanes (6), and push rod (8) are made in
one unit, and it slides only and does not rotate.
• Hydraulic actuator (3) is equipped with KVGT position sen-
sor. KVGT position sensor is calibrated together with the
variable mechanism of KVGT and the result is written in the
memory in KVGT position sensor. Accordingly, if any of hy-
draulic actuator (3), KVGT position sensor, and KVGT unit
fails, whole KVGT must be replaced.
Operation of hydraulic actuator
1. Hydraulic actuator (1) is operated by the oil pressure con-
trolled by EPC valve (3) installed to EGR valve (2).
2. The hydraulic pressure supplied by engine boost oil pump
(4) is used for this purpose.
3. The position of hydraulic actuator (1) is fed back to engine
controller by the signals from KVGT position sensor (5).

FUNCTION OF EGR SYSTEM


• EGR valve (hydraulically driven) (4) controls the gas flowing from the exhaust section to the intake section.

• EGR cooler (6) cools the exhaust gas.
Engine coolant is used to cool the exhaust gas.
• Mixing connector (3) returns the air from the air-cooled aftercooler and the exhaust gas from EGR valve to
the intake section.
• Exhaust gas is always clean with this system which controls EGR circuit based on information sent from
sensor installed to each part to obtain EGR rate according to the operating condition. (EGR ratio means the
ratio of EGR gas contained in the intake gas.)
• Monitors EGR circuit for troubleshooting with sensor installed to each part to prevent a serious failure from
occurring.

2. When EGR valve (6) opens, a part of the exhaust gas (EGR gas) flows from exhaust manifold (10) into
EGR cooler (5) through the EGR piping.
3. The exhaust gas cooled by EGR cooler (5) flows through EGR valve (6), merges with the supply air in the
mixing connector (15), and flows into the air intake manifold (12).

COMPONENT PARTS OF ENGINE SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

OPERATION OF EGR VALVE


1. The oil from the boost oil pump flows in port (C) of EGR
valve. The control pressure from EPC valve enters port
(E).
2. Spool (4) is moved to the right by the reaction force of
spring (5), and valve (1) is closed by the reaction for of
spring (2). Accordingly, the exhaust gas from EGR cooler
does not flow to the intake side.
3. To open valve (1), the control pressure from EPC valve en-
ters port (E) first. The position of spool (4) is determined by
the balance of the control pressure and spring (5).
4. Since the hydraulic circuit of power piston (3) opens, the
oil from the engine boost oil pump flows through port (C)
and pushes power piston (3) to the left.
5. The oil from the boost oil pump acts on power piston (3) and generates force (Fp).
6. When force (Fp) increases more than reaction force (Fs) of spring (2), valve (1) opens and the exhaust gas
flows to the intake side.
7. Since the hydraulic circuit to spool (4) is closed by movement of power piston (3), power piston (3) is stop-
ped at a position determined by spool (4).
8. The engine controller controls the valve position by controlling the spool position with the control pressure
of EPC valve.
9. Since the servo mechanism is applied, external force applied to valve (1) does not act on spool (4) which is
in contact with power piston (3).
10. EGR valve lift sensor senses the displacement of spool (4).

In the top load type (removed upward), the Crankshaft case pressure sensor is installed to the blowby gas
inlet piping.
In the bottom load type (removed downward), the Crankshaft case pressure sensor is installed to the top of
KCCV ventilator.

FUNCTION OF KCCV VENTILATOR


• If the blowby gas is returned to the intake side of KVGT and crankcase pressure becomes negative, the
dust may be sucked in through crank seal.
The pressure inside the crankcase is controlled by CDR valve (2) to prevent this to occur.
• Crankcase pressure may increase and oil leakage may occur if filter (5) of KCCV ventilator is clogged.
Thus, crankcase pressure sensor (3) detects the clogging of filter (6).
• Keep KCCV ventilator warm with warmed-up engine coolant to prevent the blowby gas passage from being
clogged due to freeze.

es, pressure on crankcase side (P1) decreases.
3. The reaction force of spring (2) is overwhelmed by ambient

• KDPF consists of inlet unit (3) to introduce the exhaust gas, KDOC unit (5) to store the oxidation catalyst,
KCSF unit (1) to store the soot collecting filter equipped with catalyst, and outlet unit (10) to discharge the
exhaust gas and prevent rainwater from entering through outlet into KCSF unit with the built-in “weir”.
• KDOC unit (5) consists of a ceramic honeycomb with oxidation catalyst. This ceramic honeycomb works to
properly perform the following 2 actions; Oxidize NO (nitrogen monoxide) into NO2 (nitrogen dioxide) and
burn the fuel injected during automatic regeneration and manual stationary regeneration.(Automatic regen-
eration means the method to purify (oxidize) the soot accumulated on soot collecting filter (KCSF) in KDPF.)
• This ceramic honeycomb is protected with a mat made of special fibers to prevent breakage of the ceram-
ics under the vibration condition of the engine and machine body.
• This mat also thermally insulates the periphery of KDPF from the ceramics which becomes high tempera-
ture during operation.
• KCSF unit (1) also consists of ceramic honeycomb with oxidation catalyst, similarly to KDOC unit (5). This
ceramic honeycomb captures soot.
• KDPF is equipped with 3 temperature sensors and 1 differential pressure sensor (1 unit made of KDPF dif-
ferential pressure sensor and KDPF outlet pressure sensor).
• These 3 temperature sensors are used to monitor the functions of KDOC and KCSF and troubleshoot vari-
ous items by combining the sensed temperatures.
• The differential pressure sensor detects the soot level accumulated in KCSF by detecting the pressure dif-
ference over KCSF. It is also used to troubleshoot many items, similarly to the temperature sensors.

A: Flow of exhaust gas

5: Ceramics honeycomb
• KDPF purifies the exhaust gas by catching large amount of
chainlike soot or PM (Particulate Matter such as soot)
which is contained in the engine exhaust gas.
• KDOC (oxidation catalyst) (1) oxidizes NO (nitrogen mon-
oxide) contained in the exhaust gas into NO 2 (nitrogen di-
oxide), and regenerates (*1) KCSF(2).
• KCSF (2) captures soot.
• Accumulated soot in KCSF (2) in operation range where
the temperature of exhaust gas is relatively high state is
naturally oxidized and burnt away by the effect of KDOC
(oxidation catalyst) (1). (This is called “passive regenera-
tion”)
REMARK
“Passive regeneration” cannot be performed if the light
load operation and low temperature state of the exhaust
gas continue. Accumulated soot is gradually increased.

10-60 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF ENGINE SYSTEM

• Engine controller always monitors 2 soot accumulation values and compares them. One is presumed soot
accumulation based on the engine operating conditions, and the other is the calculated soot accumulation
based on the signal from the differential pressure sensor which is attached to KCSF (2).
• If the amount of accumulated soot and the temperature of engine exhaust gas exceed the specified level,
engine controller performs “automatic regeneration” to burn (oxydize) the soot.
While performing automatic regeneration, the engine controller calculates the exhaust gas temperature at
KDOC inlet and exhaust gas volume, and controls the engine to raise the temperature of engine exhaust
gas. (This is called “exhaust gas temperature raise control”)
The temperature of engine exhaust gas at KDOC inlet is controlled by the fuel amount injected from the fuel
doser installed at the turbocharger outlet part,and exhaust gas volume is controlled by KVGT.
The engine controller enhances the oxidation power in KDOC (1) by raising the temperature of engine ex-
haust gas automatically, and improves combustion efficiency of soot captured in KCSF (2).
REMARK
When regeneration function on the machine monitor is disabled, or outside air temperature is extremely
low, or continuous light load operation is carried out, relatively low exhaust temperature continues. In such
case, “automatic regeneration” is not performed and the amount of soot accumulation is increased.
• If “automatic regeneration” is not performed due to the excess amount of accumulated soot in KCSF (2),
perform “manual stationary regeneration” to burn (oxydize) the soot and reduce the amount of soot inside
KCSF (2).
REMARK
Excessive amount of the soot interferes the flow of exhaust gas to worsen fuel consumption and engine
combustion state. It may lead to other failures.
If the amount of soot increases further, “manual stationary regeneration” cannot be performed safely. This
will result in a KDPF failure and replacement is unavoidable. Make sure to follow the procedures in the Op-
eration and Maintenance Manual when performing “manual stationary regeneration”
*1: Soot purification (oxidation) treatment

TYPES OF REGENERATION FUNCTIONS


Regeneration means to purify (oxidize) the soot accumulated on the soot collecting filter (KCSF) in KDPF or
maintain the urea SCR system normal.
Passive regeneration
When the exhaust temperature of the engine is relatively high, the oxidation power of soot in the exhaust gas
components is increased by the catalysis of KDOC to oxidize (burn) the soot accumulated in KCSF naturally.
Active regeneration (engine exhaust temperature rise control + fuel dosing)
• Automatic regeneration
• When soot is accumulated more than a certain level or the urea SCR system makes a request to main-
tain itself normal, the engine enters the exhaust temperature rise control mode (*1) and performs fuel
dosing (*2) and starts regeneration automatically.
The automatic regeneration is also performed by the direction from the engine controller at a set time
after the previous regeneration, regardless of soot accumulation in KCSF.
*1: Control to increase the engine exhaust temperature by controlling the fuel injection timing or KGVT.
*2: Fuel injection performed to accelerate regeneration by increasing the exhaust temperature.
• Manual stationary regeneration
• When the exhaust temperature does not reach a certain level, depending on the operating condition of
the machine, or when the operator disables regeneration, the automatic regeneration is not performed
and accumulated soot in KCSF increases. Also, when the automatic regeneration is performed upon
receiving a request from the urea SCR system, the exhaust temperature may not reach a certain level,
depending on the operating condition of the machine. In these cases, a request for the manual station-
ary regeneration request is displayed on the machine monitor, and the operator must perform regener-
ation by the operation on the machine monitor screen.
In addition, when the engine controller is replaced or ash in KCSF is washed, a serviceman performs
regeneration by the operation on the machine monitor screen (“active regeneration for service”).

COMPONENT PARTS OF ENGINE SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

NOTICE
• For the procedure to start and stop the regeneration of KDPF, see the Operation and Maintenance
Manual for each machine.
• Always use ultra low-sulfur diesel fuel. If any fuel other than the specified one is used, it can cause a
failure in KDPF.
• Always use specified Komatsu genuine engine oil applicable to KDPF. If any oil other than the speci-
fied one is used, it can clog KDPF quickly, and that can increase fuel consumption and cause a fail-
ure in KDPF.
• Do not modify KDPF body and exhaust pipe. If modification is made, KDPF cannot operate normally
and may have trouble.
• Do not give strong impacts to KDPF by standing on it, dropping it, or hitting it, etc. KDPF has ceram-
ic parts in it, and they may be broken by a strong impact.
• Even when soot is not accumulated much, the engine controller may start “automatic regeneration”.
This is automatic regeneration to maintain the function of KDPF or urea SCR system normal, and is
not an abnormal operation. Automatic regeneration to maintain the function of urea SCR system nor-
mal or manual stationary regeneration takes approximately 1 hour.
• During the “automatic regeneration” and the “manual stationary regeneration”, KVGT operates auto-
matically and the engine sound changes. Also, the exhaust gas flow rate in KDPF changes, and ac-
cordingly the exhaust sound changes. These phenomena are not abnormal.
• During the “automatic regeneration” and the “manual stationary regeneration”, especially at low
temperature, white smoke may be discharged through the exhaust pipe outlet for a short time. This
phenomenon is not abnormal. Be sure to perform regeneration in a well-ventilated area, since car-
bon monoxide may be generated.
• During the “automatic regeneration” and the “manual stationary regeneration”, the exhaust pipe
may smell different from usual. This is not abnormal phenomenon.
• During the “automatic regeneration” and the “manual stationary regeneration”, the temperature of
the exhaust gas discharged from the exhaust pipe may increase above 650 °C. To prevent a fire,
check that there is no combustible around the exhaust pipe. Also, check that there is no person in
the blow-out direction of the exhaust gas and confirm the safety around the machine.
• KDPF has “KDPF dry operation” function to prevent excessive accumulation of unburnt fuel in KDPF
when operation is continued at relatively low temperature for long hours.
• This is a function that the engine controller increases the engine exhaust temperature automatically
and performs dry operation of KCSF when the set condition is satisfied. When the automatic dry op-
eration is insufficient for the treatment, manual stationary regeneration may be required.

FUNCTION OF SERVO VALVE OF COOLING FAN PUMP


The servo valve controls current (i) input to EPC valve and
pump discharged volume (Q) so that their relation is as shown
in the figure.

OPERATION OF SERVO VALVE OF COOLING FAN PUMP

1. The output pressure of EPC valve enters piston chamber (C) and pushes piston (3).
2. Piston (3) pushes spool (2) and moves to a position where it is balanced with the spring.
3. Land (PE) of the servo piston pressure passage is connected to pump discharged pressure passage (PH)
through the notch of spool (2), so the pump discharged pressure is transmitted to servo piston (6).
4. When rocker cam (5) is pushed up by servo piston (6), positional feedback is provided, and lever (1) moves
in the direction to compress spring (4).
5. When spool (2) is pushed back, the pump discharge circuit and servo piston circuit are disconnected.

10-72 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF COOLING SYSTEM

6. The pressure in the servo piston chamber decreases, and rocker cam (5) returns in the direction of the
maximum swash plate angle.
7. These processes are repeated, and the swash plate is fixed to a position where EPC output pressure is
balanced with the force of spring (4).
8. When EPC output pressure increases, the swash plate angle decreases. When EPC output pressure de-
creases, the swash plate angle increases.

FUNCTION OF COOLING FAN MOTOR


It is a swash plate type axial piston motor. It converts the energy of the pressurized oil sent from the cooling fan
pump into rotary motion.

OPERATION OF COOLING FAN MOTOR


1. Pressurized oil flows from the pump through valve plate (7)
to cylinder block (5).
2. Pressurized oil flows to only either side of (Y-Y) which is
connecting the top dead center and bottom dead center
during the stroke of piston (4).
3. Pressurized oil which flows in either side of cylinder block
(5) pushes pistons (4) (4 pieces or 5 pieces).
Each piston generates force F1 [F1 kg = P kg/cm2 x
πD2/4 cm2].
This force acts on thrust plate (2).
4. Since thrust plate (2) is fixed at angle (a) to output shaft
(1), the force is divided into components (F2) and (F3).
5. Radial component (F3) of these components generates
torque (T = F3 x ri) against (Y-Y) which is connecting the
top dead center and bottom dead center.
6. Combined force [T = ∑ (F3 x ri)] of these torques rotates
cylinder block (5) through pistons (4).
7. This cylinder block (5) is coupled with output shaft (1) by
spline.
8. Output shaft (1) rotates and transmits the torque.

SUCTION VALVE OF COOLING FAN MOTOR


FUNCTION OF SUCTION VALVE OF COOLING FAN MOTOR
When the pump stops turning, no pressurized oil flows into the
motor. Since the motor is turned by the inertial force, the pres-
sure on the motor outlet side increases. When inflow of the
pressurized oil from inlet port (P) stops, suction valve (1) draws
in the pressurized oil on the outlet side and supplies it to port
(MA) to compensate for insufficiency in pressurized oil and pre-
vent cavitation.

OPERATE SUCTION VALVE OF COOLING FAN MOTOR


When engine is started
1. The pressurized oil from the cooling fan pump is supplied
to port (P), and the pressure on (MA) side increases.
2. When starting torque occurs in the motor, the motor starts
rotation.
3. The pressurized oil on the motor outlet (MB) side returns
to the tank through port (T).

10-76 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF COOLING SYSTEM

When engine is stopped


1. When the engine is stopped, the input speed of the cooling fan pump becomes 0 rpm.
2. No pressurized oil is supplied from the cooling fan pump to
port (P).
3. No pressurized oil flows to (MA) side of the motor, and
then motor speed decreases gradually.
4. If the motor shaft is rotated by inertial force while inflow of
pressurized oil to port (P) is reduced, the pressurized oil
on the outlet side is supplied by suction valve (1) to (MA)
side to prevent cavitation.

REVERSIBLE VALVE OF COOLING FAN MOTOR


OPERATE REVERSIBLE VALVE OF COOLING FAN MOTOR
When cooling fan reverse solenoid valve is "de-energized"
1. When coil (1) is "de-energized", the pressurized oil from
the pump is stopped by spool (2).
2. Port (C) is connected to the tank circuit.
3. Spool (3) is pushed to the right by spring (4).
4. Port (MA) opens, the pressurized oil flows in, and the mo-
tor rotates forward (clockwise).

COMPONENT PARTS OF COOLING SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

When cooling fan reverse solenoid valve is "energized"


1. When coil (1) is "energized", spool (2) is switched.
2. The pressurized oil from the pump flows into port (C), and
then into spool chamber (D).
3. The pressurized oil in chamber (D) compresses spring (4).
4. Spool (3) moves to the left.
5. Port (MB) opens, the pressurized oil flows in, and the mo-
tor rotates in reverse (counterclockwise).

• The pump consists of the main pump, fixed throttle valve, PC valve, and LS valve.

10-122 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION CLSS

FUNCTION OF CLSS
Control of pump swash plate angle
The pump swash plate angle (pump discharged volume) is so
controlled that LS differential pressure (ΔPLS), which is the dif-
ferential pressure between pump discharge pressure (PP) and
control valve outlet LS pressure (PLS) (actuator load pressure),
is constant.
[LS differential pressure ( PLS) = Pump discharge pressure
(PP) - LS pressure (PLS)]
The pump swash plate angle shifts toward the maximum posi-
tion if LS differential pressure (ΔPLS) is lower than the set
pressure of the LS valve (when the actuator load pressure is
high). The pump swash plate angle shifts toward the mini-
mum position if LS differential pressure is higher than the set
pressure (when the actuator load pressure is low).

CLSS 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

Pressure compensation control

• A pressure compensation valve is installed to the outlet port side of the control valve to balance the load.
• When actuators are operated in combined operations, the pressure difference (ΔP) between the upstream
(inlet port) and downstream (outlet port) of the spool of each valve are kept the same by the pressure com-
pensation valve, regardless the size of the load (pressure).
• The flow of oil from the pump is divided (compensated) in proportion to the areas of openings (S1) and (S2)
of each valve.

Prevention of negative pressure in tank
• Since the hydraulic tank is pressurized and sealed, if the
oil level in it decreases, negative pressure is generated in
it.
At this time, valve (5) is opened by the differential pressure between the tank pressure and the ambient
pressure, and outside air is sucked in to prevent generation of negative pressure in the tank.
(Set pressure of intake valve : 1.96±0.29 kPa {0.02±0.003 kg/cm2} )
Prevention of pressure rise in tank
• While the hydraulic circuit is in operation, the pressure in the hydraulic tank increases as the oil level and
the temperature in the hydraulic tank rise corresponding to the operation of the hydraulic cylinders.
When the pressure in the tank exceeds the set pressure, valve assembly (5) is pushed up to release the
pressure in the tank and prevent pressure rise.

• Shaft (1) is supported by each bearing (13).
• The end of piston (6) is a concave sphere, and it is caulked to be combined with shoe (5).
• Piston (6) and shoe (5) form a spherical bearing.
• Shoe (5) slides in a circular pattern as always being presses against the flat surface (A) of rocker cam (4).
• Rocker cam (4) rocks on cylindrical surface (B) of cradle (2) fixed to the case. High-pressure oil is supplied
between them to form a static pressure bearing.
• Piston (6) moves relatively in the axial direction in each cylinder chamber of cylinder block (7).
• Cylinder block (7) rotates relatively to valve plate (8) while seal the pressurized oil.

FUNCTION OF WORK EQUIPMENT AND HSS PUMP


• This pump converts the rotation and torque of the engine transmitted to its shaft into hydraulic pressure and
discharges pressurized oil corresponding to the load.
• It is possible to change the discharged volume by changing the swash plate angle.
Operation of work equipment and HSS pump
1. Cylinder block (7) rotates together with shaft (1) and shoe
(5) slides on plane (A).
2. Rocker cam (4) moves along cylindrical surface (B). As a
result, angle (a) between center line (X) of rocker cam (4)
and the axis of cylinder block (7) changes.
3. Angle (a) is called the swash plate angle.

4. While angle (a) is made between center line (X) of rocker


cam (4) and the axis of cylinder block (7), plane (A) works
as a cam for shoe (5).
5. Pistons (6) slide inside cylinder block (7) and a difference
is made between volumes (E) and (F) in cylinder block (7).
6. Oil in amount of (F) minus (E) is sucked in and discharged
from each piston (6).
7. Oil is discharged while cylinder block (7) rotates and the
volume of chamber (E) decreases.
8. Pressurized oil is suctioned as the volume of chamber (F)
increases.
9. When center line (X) of rocker cam (4) matches the axis of
cylinder block (7) (the swash plate angle is 0), the differ-
ence between volumes (E) and (F) inside cylinder block (7)
is 0.
10. Suction and discharge of pressurized oil is not performed
in this stage. Namely pumping action is not performed.
(Actually, however, a zero swash plate angle never oc-
curs.)

10-130 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

Control of discharged volume


1. When swash plate angle (a) is increased, the difference
between volumes (E) and (F) is increased, then dis-
charged volume (Q) is increased.
2. Swash plate angle (a) is changed by servo piston (10).
3. Servo piston (10) moves in a linear reciprocating motion
corresponding to the signal pressure from the PC valve
and LS valve.
4. This linear movement is transmitted to rocker cam (4)
through slider (14).
5. Rocker cam (4) supported on the cylindrical surface of cra-
dle (2) slides and pivots on that surface.

6. The area of servo piston (10) for receiving the pressure


are not identical on the right side and left side. Main pump
discharged pressure (self-pressure) (PP) is always trans-
mitted to the pressure chamber of the small diameter pis-
ton side.
7. Output pressure (PEN) of LS valve is supplied to the pres-
sure chamber on large diameter piston side.
8. The movement of servo piston (10) is controlled by the re-
lationship of pressure between small diameter piston side
(PP) and large diameter side (PEN) and by the ratio of the
area receiving the pressure between small diameter piston
and large diameter piston.

FUNCTION OF LS VALVE
• The LS (load sensing) valve detects the load of the actua-
tor and controls the pump discharged volume.
• This valve controls main pump discharged volume (Q) ac-
cording to differential pressure (ΔPLS) [= PP – PLS],
called the LS differential pressure (the difference between
main pump discharge pressure (PP) and control valve out-
let port pressure (PLS)).
• This valve receives pump discharge pressure (PP), pres-
sure (PLS) (called the LS pressure) coming from the con-
trol valve output.
• The relationship between LS differential pressure (ΔPLS)
[= (PP) - (PLS)], which is a differential pressure between
main pump discharge pressure (PP) and LS pressure (PLS) , and discharged volume (Q) is as shown in the
diagram.

10-132 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

OPERATE LS VALVE
When control valve is in NEUTRAL position

1. The LS valve is a 3-way selector valve, and LS pressure (PLS) on the inlet of the control valve is transmit-
ted to spring chamber (B), and pump discharged pressure (PP) is transmitted to port (H) of sleeve (8).
2. Magnitude of the force resulting from this LS pressure (PLS), force of spring (4) and the pump discharged
pressure (self pressure) (PP) determine the position of spool (6).
3. Before the engine is started, servo piston (10) is pushed to the right. (See the figure below.)
4. When the engine is started, if the control lever is in NEUTRAL position, LS (PLS) is 0 MPa {0 kg/cm2} . (It is
connected to the drain circuit through the control valve spool.)
5. Spool (6) is pushed to the right and port (C) and port (D) are connected.
6. Pump discharged pressure (PP) enters the large diameter piston side from port (K).
7. The same pump discharged pressure (PP) also enters port (J) on small diameter piston side.

8. corresponding to the area difference of servo piston (10),


the servo piston is moved in the direction which makes the
swash plate angle minimum.

Operation in direction to increase pump discharged volume

1. When the difference between pump discharge pressure (PP) and LS pressure (PLS), or LS differential
pressure ( PLS), decreases (for example, when the open area of the control valve increases and pump dis-
charge pressure (PP) decreases), the combined force of LS pressure (PLS) and force of spring (4) pushes
spool (6) to the left.
2. As spool (6) moves, port (D) is connected to port (E) and connected to PC valve.
3. PC valve is connected to the drain port, and the line between ports (D) and (K) is set to drain pressure (PT).
(The operation of PC valve is explained later.)
4. The pressure at the large piston diameter end of servo piston (10) becomes drain pressure (PT), and pump
discharged pressure (PP) is constantly transmitted to port (J) at the small piston diameter end. Accordingly,

10-134 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

servo piston (10) is pushed to the left, and moves the swash plate in the direction to make the discharged
volume larger.
Operation in direction to increase pump discharged volume

1. When servo piston (10) moves to the right (in the direction to reduce the discharged volume) and LS differ-
ential pressure ( PLS) increases (for example, when the open area of the control valve decreases and
pump discharge pressure (PP) increases), the force caused by pump discharge pressure (PP) pushes
spool (6) to the right.
2. As spool (6) moves, pump discharge pressure (PP) flows through port (C) to port (D), and then through port
(K) to the large diameter piston side.
3. Although pump discharge pressure (PP) is applied to port (J) on the small diameter piston side, servo pis-
ton (10) is pushed to the right by the area difference between the large diameter piston side and small di-
ameter piston side of servo piston (10). As the result, the swash plate angle becomes smaller.

D155AXI-8 10-135
COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

When servo piston is balanced

1. The pressure receiving area on the large diameter piston side is set as (A1), that on the small diameter
piston side as (A0), and the pressure entering the large diameter piston side as (PEN).
2. When the force exerted by pump discharged pressure (PP) of the LS valve is balanced with the combined
force exerted by LS pressure (PLS) and spring (4), and the relation becomes (A0) x (PP) = (A1) x (PEN),
servo piston (10) stops in that position.
3. The swash plate of the pump is held at the intermediate position. [The swash plate stops at a position
where the openings from port (D) to port (E) and from port (C) to port (D) of spool (6) are approximately
equal.]
4. At this point, the relationship between the both pressure receiving areas of servo piston (10) is (A0):
(A1)=3:5, so the pressure applied to the both piston ends when it is balanced becomes (PP):(PEN)≒5:3.
5. The force of spring (4) is adjusted so that spool (6) can be balanced at the specified center when (PP) -
(PLS) = 1.96 MPa {20 kg/cm2} .

UNLOAD VALVE OF CONTROL VALVE


FUNCTION OF UNLOAD VALVE OF CONTROL VALVE
When control valve is in NEUTRAL position

When main spool (1) is at “HOLD” position, it drains the excess oil discharged by the pump, and prevents the
pressure from being formed in the circuit from rising.

D155AXI-8 10-157
COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

OPERATE UNLOAD VALVE OF CONTROL VALVE


When main spool (1) is at “HOLD” position, it drains the excess oil discharged by the pump, and prevents the
pressure from being formed in the circuit from rising.

1. When main spool (1) is at “HOLD” position, the pump discharge pressure passes from chamber (A) through
orifice (4) to chamber (D). Chambers (C) and (C') are connected to the drain circuit.
2. When pressurized oil is supplied from the pump, the pressure in chamber (D) increases, and main spool (1)
is pushed to the right by the received pressure which is determined by the cross-sectional area of piston (3)
receiving the pressure.
3. When this received pressure becomes larger than the set force of spring (2), main spool (1) moves to the
right and connects chambers (A) and (B), so the oil from the pump is drained.
4. Therefore, main spool (1) is balanced at a position that matches the supply of oil from the pump.
5. Actually, the amount of oil supplied from the pump is small, so the pressure in the circuit is almost the same
as the set force of spring (2).

FUNCTION OF OILFLOW CONTROL OF CONTROL VALVE


Use of the CLSS circuit (Closed Center Load Sensing System) makes it possible to control the oil flow by ad-
justing the area of opening of the spool driven by the EPC valve regardless of the load.

OPERATE OILFLOW CONTROL OF CONTROL VALVE


Use of the CLSS circuit (Closed Center Load Sensing System) makes it possible to control the oil flow by ad-
justing the area of opening of the spool driven by the EPC valve regardless of the load.
When steering valve is at HOLD position

1. When steering spool (1) is at “HOLD” position, the pump discharged pressure is transmitted from chamber
(A) of the steering priority valve through the notch in spool (3) of the steering priority valve, and passes
through chamber (B) to chamber (C) of steering spool.
2. Oil in chamber (G) of the steering priority valve is drained through chamber (H) to chamber (F) of the steer-
ing spool.
3. Since the pump discharged pressure is acting on the left end of spool (3) of the steering priority valve, it
compresses spring (4) and moves to the right to the maximum stroke position.

D155AXI-8 10-159
COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

4. In this condition, the area of the opening to steering spool (1) of the steering priority valve is at its minimum.
When steering valve is set for steering left

• ΔPLS = Differential pressure between ports (K) and (J) = 2.0 MPa {20 kg/cm2} 


• ΔPLS’ = Differential pressure between ports (I) and (D)
• ΔPLS ≒ PLS'

10-160 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

1. When PCCS lever is operated to “LEFT”, pilot pressure


(PI) acts on the right end of steering spool (1) through the
EPC valve.
2. When the pressure becomes greater than the set load of
spring (2), steering spool (1) moves to the left and is bal-
anced at a position that matches pilot pressure (PI).
3. Chambers (C) and (D) are connected, and the oil dis-
charged from the pump flows through ports (A), (B), (C)
and (D) to HSS motor (6).
4. At the same time, the load pressure in chamber (D) of the
steering spool is transmitted through LS orifice (5) and
chamber (H) to chamber (G) of steering priority valve, and
is further transmitted through LS circuit (O) to the LS valve
of the work equipment and HSS pump.
5. Since chamber (B) pressure ≒ chamber (C) pressure, and
chamber (G) pressure ≒ chamber (D) pressure, steering
priority valve spool (3) is controlled by the differential pres-
sure of steering spool (1) [chamber (C) pressure - cham-
ber (D) pressure] and balanced with spring (4).
6. If the oil flow is too large, the differential pressure of steer-
ing spool (1) becomes larger, so steering priority valve
spool (3) moves in the direction to throttle the oil flow.
7. On the other hand, if the oil flow is too small, steering pri-
ority valve spool (3) moves in the direction to increase the oil flow.
8. LS valve of the pump is controlled so that the differential pressure between pump discharged pressure (P)
and LS pressure (LS) [LS differential pressure: ΔPLS] remains constant, so a suitable amount of oil flows to
ensure that the loss of pressure at the control valve (ΔPLS’) is equal to ΔPLS.
9. The loss of pressure in the control valve is determined by the area of the opening of steering spool (1), so
the oil flow matches the opening of steering spool (1).
10. The return oil flow from HSS motor (6) is drained through chamber (E) and chamber (F).

1. When blade lift spool (1) is at “HOLD” position, the pump discharged pressure (unload pressure) is trans-

2. The pressure is not formed in chambers (H) and (H'), so pressure compensation valve spool (3) and steer-
ing priority valve spool (4) are pressed to the right.

chambers (A) and (B) of steering priority valve spool (4), and is further transmitted through chambers (D)
and (E) to chamber (F) of the blade lift spool.
4. In the same way as described in “Steering valve”, the position of pressure compensation valve spool (3) is
determined to match the opening of blade lift spool (1), and the oil flow is determined so that pressure loss
(ΔPLS) of the control valve becomes equal to the control differential pressure (ΔPLS') of the pump LS
valve.

Meter-out control when blade moves down under its own weight (work equip-

1. When the blade moves down under its own weight, the oil flow of return oil from blade lift cylinder is control-
led by the area of the opening of blade lift spool (1).

10-164 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

2. When the port of blade lift spool (1) is opened by pilot pressure (PI), because of the weight of the blade, the
pressurized oil from the cylinder head side passes through ports (A), (B), (C) and (D), and is drained to the
tank.
3. The flow of return oil from the blade lift cylinder is throttled by the area of opening between ports (A) and (B)
of the blade lift spool, so the lowering speed is controlled.
4. The pressurized oil flowing from the blade lift cylinder head end passes from the drain circuit through suc-
tion valve (2) and is supplied to the bottom end of the blade lift cylinder.
5. The oil discharged from the pump passes through ports (A'), (B'), (C'), (D') and (E'), and is supplied to the
blade lift cylinder bottom.

10-166 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

1. When the blade lift valve is in “FLOAT” condition, the pump circuit and cylinder ports (A3) and (B3) are dis-
connected so that the other control valves can be operated.
2. When the work equipment control lever is set at “LOWER” position and “FLOAT” button is pressed, output
pressure (PA3) of the EPC valve becomes 3.4 MPa {35 kg/cm2}  or more and blade lift spool (1) is moved to
the maximum stroke position.
3. Ports (A3) and (B3) and LS circuit (O) are all interconnected to the drain circuit, so there is no load on the
blade lift cylinder.
4. If the blade lift cylinder is driven by the weight of the blade, the pressurized oil entering from port (A3) flows
to ports (A), (B), (B') and (A'), while the rest of the pressurized oil flows through ports (C) and (D), and is
drained.
5. The oil flow is throttled by the area of opening of blade lift spool (1) between ports (A) and (B) to control the
cylinder speed.
6. The pump circuit chamber (E) and ports (A3) and (B3) are disconnected but pump discharged pressure (P)
is formed at chamber (E), so it is possible to carry out combined operations with other control valves.

10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

• ΔLS = ΔP1 + ΔP2 = Differential pressure between ports (M) and (N) = 2.0 MPa {20 kg/cm2} 
This valve sets the maximum pressure when HSS motor (7) is operated.
1. If steering spool (1) is moved and the pressure of HSS motor (7) becomes higher, the poppet of steering LS
relief valve (5) will start to open and oil is drained from LS circuit (O). [Ports (E), (F), (G), (J), (K), and (L)]
2. As a result, there will be a drop in pressure in LS passage (O) starting from LS sensing hole (F), and ΔP2
will become larger.
3. For the same reason, if the pressure in chambers (H) and (I) drops, steering priority valve spool (2) will
push against spring (3) and move to the right, and will make the opening between chambers (B) and (C)
smaller, so the flow to chambers (B) and (C) will be throttled and ΔP4 will become larger.
4. Because of the pump swash plate control, the system circuit is balanced at a circuit pressure which makes
the pressure loss generated by the flow at steering LS relief valve (5), ΔP1 + ΔP2, equal to LS differential
pressure (ΔLS).
5. The pump LS valve detects the differential pressure generated by steering LS relief valve (5), and moves
the pump swash plate angle from the maximum to the minimum position. The pump swash plate is bal-
anced at a position where the LS differential pressure is 2.0 MPa {20 kg/cm2} .
6. When the pump is at the minimum swash plate angle (minimum oil flow), if the minimum oil flow is greater
than the [LS relief oil flow + leakage at any part], the pressure is confined in the pump circuit [between the
pump and chambers (A) and (B)], so the LS differential pressure rises.
7. If this differential pressure goes above the set pressure for unload valve (4), the unload valve is actuated to
relieve the excess oil flow and balance the circuit.

• ΔLS = ΔP1 + ΔP2 = Differential pressure between ports (M) and (N) = 2.0 MPa {20 kg/cm2} 
1. If blade tilt spool (1) is moved and the pressure of the blade tilt cylinder becomes higher, the poppet of work
equipment LS relief valve (5) will start to open and pressurized oil will be drained from LS circuit (O). [Ports
(E), (F), (G), (J), (K) and (L)]
2. As a result, there will be a drop in pressure in LS passage (O) starting from LS sensing hole (F), and ΔP2
will become larger.
3. For the same reason, if the pressure in chambers (H) and (I) drops, pressure compensation valve spool (2)
will push against spring (3) and move to the right, and will make the opening between chambers (B) and (C)
smaller, so the flow to chambers (B) and (C) will be throttled and ΔP4 will become larger.
4. Because of the pump swash plate control, the system circuit is balanced at a circuit pressure which makes
the pressure loss generated by the flow at work equipment LS relief valve (5), ΔP1 + ΔP2, equal to LS dif-
ferential pressure (ΔLS).
5. The pump LS valve detects the differential pressure generated by work equipment LS relief valve (5), and
moves the pump swash plate angle from the maximum to the minimum position. The pump swash plate is
balanced at a position where the LS differential pressure is 2.0 MPa {20 kg/cm2} .
6. When the pump is at the minimum swash plate angle (minimum oil flow), if the minimum oil flow is greater
than the (LS relief oil flow + leakage at any part), the pressure is confined in the pump circuit [between the
pump and chambers (A) and (B)], so the LS differential pressure rises.
7. If this differential pressure goes above the set pressure for unload valve (4), the unload valve is actuated to
relieve the excess oil flow and balance the circuit.

10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

• When steering spool (1) and blade tilt spool (2) are relieved at the same time, the pump discharged pres-
sure is separated by pressure compensation valve spool (3) in the blade tilt valve, and the port pressure is
maintained at a constant value.
1. If HSS motor (6) stalls, the load pressure increases and steering valve LS relief valve (4) operates to cut off
the system. (For details, see “At relief, Steering valve”.)
2. The pump discharged pressure (P) is maintained at 38.2 MPa {390 kg/cm2}  at this time, and this is trans-
mitted to chamber (G) of the blade tilt valve.
3. When blade tilt spool (2) is operated and the load on the blade tilt valve is greater, LS relief valve (5) for
blade tilt valve is actuated, and drain oil flow (Q1) flows to LS circuit (O).
4. A differential pressure is generated on the right and left sides of pressure compensation valve spool (3) by
LS throttle (M) of blade tilt spool (2), and it moves the full stroke to the right.
5. The opening between chambers (D) and (E) is throttled to the minimum size (pump pressure separated).
6. Oil flow (Q1) is determined by pump discharged pressure (P) and the total pressure loss Δ (P - LSO) of
ports (C), (D), (E), (F), (G), (I), (J) and (K).
7. Furthermore, pressure (P2) [the pressure in chamber (H)] becomes the total (LSO + ΔPO) of the set pres-
sure of work equipment LS relief valve (5) and the circuit pressure loss of ports (H), (I), (J) and (K).

The steering valve is equipped with steering priority valve spool (3), so if the steering valve and the downstream

The steering valve is equipped with steering priority valve spool (3), so if the steering valve and the downstream

the rest of the volume of oil discharged from the pump goes to the work equipment valve.

10-178 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

1. When steering spool (1) is operated to the left by EPC


valve output pressure (PI), the oil flows into the HSS motor
and a differential pressure is generated between the inlet
and outlet of the steering spool and between chambers (C)
and (D).
2. Steering priority valve spool (3) is controlled by this differ-
ential pressure, and at the same time, the pump swash
plate angle is controlled at ΔPLS = 2.0 MPa {20 kg/cm2} ,
and the oil flow to the steering valve is determined.
3. For details, see “Control of oil flow, Steering valve”.
4. In this condition, if downstream work equipment blade lift
spool (2) is operated, the pump discharged pressure mo-
mentarily drops
5. At the same time, ΔPLS becomes smaller, so the pump swash plate tilts toward the maximum angle in or-
der to increase the oil flow by the amount which compensates the pressure drop.
6. The differential pressure between chambers (C) and (D) becomes smaller, and steering priority valve spool
(3) is moved to the left by the pressure in chamber (E) in the direction to throttle the opening to the work
equipment valve.
When pump swash plate does not reach maximum angle
1. When the maximum oil flow from the pump is greater than the sum of the flow demanded by the steering
valve and work equipment valve, an amount of oil that matches the opening of steering spool (1) flows to
the steering valve.
2. An amount of oil determined by the pump discharged pressure, the load pressure and the area of the spool
opening, flows to the work equipment valve.
When pump swash plate is at maximum angle
When steering valve load work equipment valve load
• An amount of oil that matches the opening of steering spool (1) flows to the steering valve, and the remain-
ing oil flows to the work equipment valve.
When steering valve load > work equipment valve load.
• Pump discharged pressure (P) is determined by the steering valve load, but in this condition, if the down-
stream work equipment valve where the load is smaller is operated, the difference in pressure causes the
oil to try to flow to the work equipment valve, so the pump discharged pressure drops.
• To ensure the flow of oil to the steering system, steering priority valve spool (3) increases the area of the
opening to the steering system, while at the same time reducing the area of the opening to the work equip-
ment.
• In this condition, the flow of oil is divided in proportion to the difference in pressure between differential
pressure (P) – (P1) and differential pressure (P) – (P2).
• The bigger (P1) – (P2) is, the smaller the flow of oil to the steering system becomes.

COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

It consists of a parallel circuit, so when combined operations are carried out, the oil flow is divided correspond-
ing to the opening area of each spool.
1. When blade tilt spool (1) and blade lift spool (2) are at the “HOLD” position or are at “OPERATE”, steering
priority valve (3) is pressed to the right, and the area of the opening to the downstream section is at its max-
imum.

10-180 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

2. Blade tilt spool (1) and blade lift spool (2) are actuated by EPC valve output pressures (PA2) and (PB3),
and each of them is balanced at a position that matches its own EPC valve output pressure.
When pressure (P2) pressure (P3)
Blade lift valve load pressure (P3) is transmitted to the pump LS valve through LS circuit (O).
When pump swash plate does not reach maximum angle
• When the maximum flow of oil from the pump is greater than the sum of the oil flow demanded by the blade
tilt valve and blade lift valve, an oil flow that matches the opening of the spool flows to both of the blade tilt
valve and blade lift valve.
When pump swash plate is at maximum angle
• When the maximum flow of oil from the pump is smaller than the sum of the oil flow demanded by the blade
tilt valve and blade lift valve, the flow of oil to the blade tilt valve and blade lift valve is divided corresponding
to differential pressure (PO) - (P2) and differential pressure (PO) - (P3).
• In other words, more oil flows to (P2) where the load is small.
REMARK
When the blade is raised and the blade tilt valve and blade lift valve are moved to “RAISE” position at the same
time, the blade tilt valve load pressure is smaller than the blade lift valve load pressure, so the flow of oil to the
blade tilt valve is given priority. In addition, the oil flow demanded by the blade tilt valve is smaller, so the condi-
tion is just as if priority was given to the oil flow for the blade tilt valve.
When pressure (P2) = pressure (P3)
(P) – (P2) ≒ (P) – (P3), so an oil flow proportional to the size of the spool opening of each spool is distributed.

COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

1. This improves the response of the system including the pressure compensation valve and pump swash
plate by sending the pilot pressure (EPC valve source pressure) to the LS circuit, and compensating the
rise of the LS circuit pressure.

10-182 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

2. When blade lift valve spool (1) is at “HOLD” position, pilot pressure (P1) (source pressure of PPC valve) is
sent through preset check valve (3) to chamber (F) of the pressure compensation valve. This pressure is
called preset pressure (P2).
3. Unload pressure (P) is transmitted to chamber (B), but (P1) + (F0) > (P) [F0: load of spring (4)], so pressure
compensation spool (2) moves to the left and the size of the opening between chambers (A) and (B) be-
comes the maximum.
4. When blade lift spool (1) is switched, unload pressure (P) flows immediately through chambers (A), (B), (C),
(D) and (E) to the blade lift cylinder, so the pressure at the port starts to rise and the time lag becomes
smaller.
5. At the same time, preset pressure (P2) is transmitted to LS circuit (O), and the pressure in the LS circuit
rises.
6. Unload valve (7) closes, and oil flows further to the pump LS valve to improve the response of the pump
swash plate angle. This makes it possible to reduce the response time for giving the necessary oil flow.

• The power generated by the engine is transmitted from universal joint (1) to torque converter (2) after its
torsional vibrations have been reduced with damper.
• The power from the engine is transmitted through the oil by torque converter (2) to the transmission input
shaft (turbine shaft) corresponding with the change in load.
• Transmission (3) uses a combination of planetary gear mechanisms and hydraulic clutches to reduce the
speed and shift the gears (3 forward speeds and 3 reverse speeds). corresponding to the change in load, 2
clutches are selected and engaged to transmit the power from the bevel pinion at the rear end of the trans-
mission to bevel gear fixed to the bevel gear shaft.
• The power transmitted to the bevel gear shaft is then further transmitted to HSS (Hydrostatic Steering Sys-
tem) unit (4).
Work equipment and HSS pump (6) is driven by PTO (5), and the oil discharged from it drives HSS motor
(7).
The rotation of the pair of the HSS gears on the right and left is controlled by HSS motor (7). The turning
direction is controlled by generating a difference in speed on the right and left.
It is also possible to use the HSS mechanism to reverse the rotation to the right and left to perform the
counter-rotation turn.
• Brake (8)of HSS is used for braking the machine. Brake (8) is a wet, multiple disc clutch and spring boosted
type.
The power output from brake (8) is transmitted to final drive (9).

FUNCTION OF GEAR SHIFT MODE


Types of gear shift mode
There are Automatic Shift Mode and Manual Shift Mode in the
gear shift mode. These modes are changed to each other each
time gear shift mode switch (1) is pressed.
Automatic Shift Mode
• When a load is applied, the gear is shifted down automati-
cally. When the load is reduced, the gear is automatically
shifted up to the maximum usable gear speed automatical-
ly.
• The torque converter locks up corresponding to loads and
the gear is shifted up to the set maximum gear speed au-
tomatically. In this mode, low fuel consumption and high
working efficiency can be obtained.
Manual Shift Mode
• When a load is applied while the auto shift down is ON, the gear is shifted down automatically. When the
load is reduced, however, the gear is not shifted up automatically.
• While the auto shift down is OFF, the operator shifts the gear up and down manually.
• While the auto shift down is ON, the gear is automatically shifted down when a load is applied.
• While the auto shift down is OFF, the gear is not automatically shifted down even when a load is applied.
Gear shift method
By pressing UP switch (1) or DOWN switch (2) on the joystick
(steering, directional, and gear shift lever), the operator can
perform gear shift operations and presettings.

Structure
• The torque converter is a 3-element, single stage, 2 phase type and is integrated with the transmission.
• The torque converter is equipped with a wet double disc clutch type torque converter lockup device and a
stator clutch in order to reduce fuel consumption, to increase the operating performance, and to reduce the
horsepower consumption by the engine.
• For higher efficiency of continuous light dozing and leveling operation, the torque converter is locked up
(pump (15) and turbine (11) are integrated into 1 unit) and the engine power is transferred directly to the
transmission input shaft (25).

D155AXI-8 10-205
COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

• When the torque converter is locked up, the oil is still supplied to the torque converter.
Accordingly, the oil flowing from pump (15) through turbine (11) to stator (14) is obstructed by the stator
blades and cannot flow in any determined direction. As a result, this oil resists the rotation of the pump and
turbine (it is stirred).
• To reduce the rotating resistance of pump (15) and turbine (11), the stator clutch is disengaged simultane-
ously with lockup of the torque converter so that stator (14) can rotate freely.
• As stator (14) is dragged and turned by pump (15) and turbine (11), the oil returns from the turbine to the
pump smoothly to reduce resistance.
• Conditions for lockup mode and torque converter mode

TORQUE CONVERTER OIL FLOW


1. The oil flows through the main relief valve and its pressure
is reduced to below the set pressure by the torque convert-
er relief valve. It then flows in inlet port (A), goes through
the oil passages of torque converter case (1), stator clutch
front housing (2), pump shaft (3) and retainer (4), and
flows into pump (5).
2. The oil is given centrifugal force by pump (5) and flows in
turbine (6) to transfer its energy to turbine (6).
3. The oil from turbine (6) is sent to stator (7) and flows in
pump (5) again. A part of the oil, however, is sent to stator
(7) and through outlet port (B) to the power train oil cooler.

FUNCTION OF TORQUE CONVERTER CONTROL VALVE


• The torque converter control valve consists of the ECMV's which control the lockup clutch and stator clutch
respectively.
• This valve locks the torque converter with the lockup clutch to reduce fuel consumption, to increase the op-
erating performance, and to reduce the horsepower consumption by the engine during low-load operation.
It also disengage the stator clutch to reduce the rotation resistance of the pump and turbine in the torque
converter.

FUNCTION OF LOCKUP CLUTCH ECMV


• This valve is used to adjust the clutch oil pressure to the set pressure and select a clutch.
• Since the pressure application characteristics to the clutch is used for the modulation waveform, ECMV is
capable of connecting the lockup clutch smoothly, thereby reducing the shocks resulting from gear shift. In
addition, the above prevents the generation of peak torque in the power train. As a result, it provides a com-
fortable ride for the operator and increases the durability of the power train.

COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

OPERATE LOCKUP CLUTCH ECMV


Operation during travel in torque converter mode
1. When traveling in torque converter drive mode, current
does not blow to proportional solenoid (1).
2. Pressure control valve (3) drains the oil from clutch port (A)
through drain port (T), and lockup clutch is “disengaged”.
3. Fill switch (5) is turned “OFF” at this time, since no oil pres-
sure is applied to pressure detection valve (4).

Operation during travel in direct drive mode (when being filled)


When the travel mode is changed from the torque converter
drive mode to the direct drive mode, current flows in proportion-
al solenoid (1), the oil pressure force balanced with the sole-
noid force is applied to chamber (B), and it pushes pressure
control valve (3) to the left. As a result, pump port (P) and
clutch port (A) open. When the clutch is filled with oil, oil pres-
sure pickup port (4) actuates and fill switch (5) is turned “ON”.

10-212 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM

Operation during travel in direct drive mode (when pressure is adjusted)


1. If current flows in proportional solenoid (1), the solenoid
generates thrust in proportion to the current. This thrust of
the solenoid is balanced with the sum of the thrust gener-
ated by the oil pressure in clutch port and the reaction
force of pressure control valve spring (2), and then the
pressure is regulated.
2. While shifting gears, the lockup clutch oil pressure is re-
duced temporarily to reduce the shock when shifting gear.
Oil pressure at this time is controlled so that the lockup
piston pushing force balances with the inside pressure of
torque converter.

FUNCTION OF STATOR CLUTCH ECMV


• This valve is used to adjust the clutch oil pressure to the set pressure and select a clutch.
• It forms a modulation wave pattern, so the stator clutch is engaged smoothly to reduce the shock when

As a result, the operator comfort improves and the power train durability increases.

Structure
• The transmission is a “forward 3-speed and reverse 3-speed” transmission which consists of the planetary
gear mechanism and the disc clutches.
• The transmission selects a single rotating direction and a single speed range by fixing the planetary gear
mechanism and 2 clutches out of 5 pairs of disc clutches hydraulically by using ECMV.
• The transmission transfers the power received by transmission input shaft (5) to output shaft (18) by chang-
ing the gear speed (forward 1st-3rd or reverse 1st-3rd) with any combination of the forward or reverse
clutch, and one of 3 speed clutches.

• The disc clutch consists of piston (2), plates (3), discs (4),

• The internal teeth of disc (4) are engaged with outside
teeth of ring gear (1).
• Plate (3) and clutch housing (7) are assembled with pin
(5).

FUNCTION OF DISC CLUTCH


REMARK
The figure shows the case in which the “1st” gear is selected.
• When the joystick (steering, directional and gear shift lev-
er) (PCCS lever) is in “NEUTRAL” position, any one of the
1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear speed is selected.
• The piston chamber of the clutch corresponding to the se-
lected gear speed is filled with oil by electronically control-
ling the oil circuit of each clutch.
• When the joystick (PCCS lever) is shifted from “NEUTRAL”
position to “FORWARD” or “REVERSE” position, the pump
is required to supply oil enough to fill the piston chamber of
the forward or reverse clutch.
• When the gear speed is changed from “FORWARD 1st” to “FORWARD 2nd”, the pump is required to sup-
ply oil enough to press the plates and discs of the 2nd clutch since the forward clutch has been filled with
the oil.
• The time lag at shifting gears is reduced by controlling the oil circuit as explained above.

OPERATION OF DISC CLUTCH


Operation when clutch is “ON” (engaged)
1. The oil from ECMV is passes through oil passage of clutch
housing (7) to the back of piston (2) to push piston (2) left-
ward.
2. Piston (2) presses plates (3) against discs (4) to hold rota-
tion of discs (4) with the friction force between them.
3. Since inside teeth of disc (4) are engaged with outside
teeth of ring gear (1), the ring gear (1) is locked.

D155AXI-8 10-221
COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

Operation when clutch is “OFF” (disengaged)


1. When the oil supplied from ECMV is shut off, piston (2) is
returned rightward by the force of return spring (6).
2. Plates (3) and discs (4) are released from the frictional
force, and ring gear (1) is released.

FUNCTION OF TRANSMISSION ECMV


ECMV is controlled by the command current sent from the con-
troller to the proportional solenoid and the fill switch output sig-
nal.
The relationship between the proportional solenoid command
current for ECMV, clutch input pressure, and fill switch output
signal is shown below.
Range A: Before shifting gear (oil is drained)
Range B: Clutch is being filled
Range C: Pressure is being adjusted
Range D: Clutch is being filled (triggering period)
Point E: Filling is started
Point F: Filling is finished
REMARK
The logic is designed so that the controller does not recognize
completion of filling even if the fill switch is turned ON during
the triggering period (Range D).
• When gear is shifted with gear shift switch, the clutch discs
and plates are pressed by piston. If high pressure is sud-
denly applied, the piston suddenly engages the clutch,
causing sudden start of the machine and excessive shock.
• ECMV reduces a shock at the start of the machine by in-
creasing the oil pressure applied to the piston gradually to
set pressure, and allows the clutch to be smoothly “engaged”. It aims to increase durability of the power
train system and enhances an operator comfort.
Function of pressure control valve
A proportional solenoid in this valve receives the current sent from the controller and this valve converts it to oil
pressure.
Function of proportional solenoid
The proportional solenoid generates thrust shown below corresponding to the command current from the con-
troller.
The thrust generated by the proportional solenoid is applied to the pressure control valve spool to generate a
hydraulic pressure as shown below. Thus, the oil flow and pressure is controlled by controlling the command
current to change the thrust and let the pressure control valve operate.

Function of fill switch


• When the clutch is filled with oil, the fill switch is turned
“ON” by the pressure of the clutch. This signal allows the
oil pressure to build up.
• Outputs a signal (a fill signal) to the controller to notify that
filling is complete when the clutch is filled with oil.
• Keeps outputting the signals (fill signals) to the controller
to notify that the oil pressure is applied while oil pressure is
applied to the clutch.

D155AXI-8 10-231
COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

OPERATION OF TRANSMISSION ECMV


Operation before shifting of gear (when being drained)
1. While no current is flowing to the proportional solenoid (1),
pressure control valve (3) drains the oil from clutch port (A)
through drain port (T).
2. Fill switch (5) is turned “OFF” at this time since no oil pres-
sure is applied to pressure detection valve (4).

Operation when being filled.


When the current flows in proportional solenoid (1) with no oil
in the clutch, the oil pressure force equal to the solenoid force
acts on chamber (B) and pushes pressure control valve (3) to
the right. As a result, pump port (P) and clutch port (A) are con-
nected and oil starts to fill the clutch. When the clutch is filled
with oil, pressure detection valve (4) turns fill switch (5) “ON”.

10-232 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM

Operation when adjusting the pressure


If current flows in proportional solenoid (1), the solenoid gener-
ates thrust in proportion to the current. This thrust of the sole-
noid is balanced with the sum of the thrust generated by the oil
pressure in clutch port and the reaction force of pressure con-
trol valve spring (2), and then the pressure is regulated.

MAIN RELIEF VALVE


FUNCTION OF MAIN RELIEF VALVE
The main relief valve regulates the pressure in the transmission and parking brake hydraulic circuits to the set

10-234 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM

OPERATE MAIN RELIEF VALVE


1. The oil from the hydraulic pump flows to port (C) through
the filter. Then it flows to chamber (F) through orifice (a) in
main relief valve (1).

2. When the oil pressure in the circuit exceeds the set pres-
sure, the oil in chamber (F) pushes piston (2) and the reac-
tion force of the piston pushes main relief valve (1) left-
ward to connect ports (C) and (E). Then, the oil from pump
flows through port (E) into the torque converter.

TORQUE CONVERTER RELIEF VALVE


FUNCTION OF TORQUE CONVERTER RELIEF VALVE
The torque converter relief valve maintains the torque converter inlet pressure below the set pressure to protect
the torque converter from abnormally high pressure.
Set pressure (cracking pressure) : 1.06±0.05 MPa {10.8±0.5 kg/cm 2} 

OPERATE TORQUE CONVERTER RELIEF VALVE


1. The oil relieved through the main relief valve flows through
port (E) into the torque converter. It also flows through ori-
fice (b) in torque converter relief valve (3) into chamber
(G).
2. When the oil pressure to the torque converter goes beyond
the set pressure, the oil conducted to chamber (G) pushes
piston (4) and the resulting pushing force pushes torque
converter relief valve (3) rightward. Then ports (E) and (A)
open.
Then, the oil in port (E) is drained through port (A).

Bevel gear shaft
• The bevel gear shaft divides the power sent from the engine through the torque converter and transmission
shaft to the right and left at right angles while reducing the rotating speed through the meshed bevel pinion
(36) and bevel gear (17).
• The bevel pinion (36) and bevel gear (17) on the bevel gear shaft are the spiral bevel gear, and they are
splash lubricated by the oil from the steering lubrication pump and scavenging pump.
• The bevel gear shaft consists of bevel pinion (36), bearing (35) and cage (33) which support the bevel pin-
ion, bevel gear (17) which is meshed with the bevel pinion (31), bevel gear shaft (16), bearings (25) and
(26) which support the bevel gear shaft, and retainer (28).
HSS
• The HSS consists of the transfer section to invert the rotating direction of HSS motor (39) and transmit the
power to gear A (18) and the planetary section to adjust the input power from ring gear (22) and sun gear
(19) and output the power to carrier (24).
The steering direction of the machine is changed by stopping the rotation of HSS motor (39) or changing its
turning direction.
• The transfer section has a set of reduction spur gears and they are splash lubricated by the oil from the
steering lubrication pump and scavenging pump.
• The planetary section has the forced lubrication method by the oil from the steering lubrication pump and
scavenging pump.
• The transfer section consists of drive gear (40) splined to HSS motor (39), gear D (41) meshed with the
drive gear, gear C (42) meshed with gear D, gear B (37) coupled with shaft (38), gear A (18) supported by
bearing on the bevel gear shaft, and the steering case which supports those parts.
• The planetary section consists of sun gear (19), planetary pinion (21), pinion shaft (20), ring gear (22), hub
(23) meshed with bevel gear shaft (16) and ring gear (22), and carrier (24) coupled with brake hub (14).
Brake
• The brake is connected to the R.H. HSS and L.H. HSS, and restricts the power transmitted from those HSS
to the final drives to brake the machine.
• The brake is of wet multiple disc clutch type and spring-loaded type. Brake control valve (5) is actuated hy-
draulically by operating the brake pedal.

D155AXI-8 10-241
COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

• The brake employs the forced lubrication system, in which oil from the steering lubrication pump and scav-
enging pump flows to case (7) and brake drum (13) through the passage in the steering case, and further
flows to brake discs (12) and brake plates (11).
• When the engine is stopped, the steering brake is "applied" since the back pressure acting on the brake
piston (10) lowers, even the brake pedal is not depressed. However, the brake is "released" as the oil pres-
sure in the circuit goes up when the engine restarts, so the parking brake lever must be set to the LOCK
position.
• The brake consists of brake hub (14) coupled with carrier (24), brake discs (12) meshed with the brake hub,
brake drum (13), brake plates (11) whose periphery is coupled with brake drum (13), brake piston (10) and
brake spring (9) which presses brake discs and brake plates together, and cylinder (8), case (7), and output
shaft (6) which support those parts.
Brake drum (13) and case (7) are fixed to the steering case.
Output shaft (6) is connected to brake hub (14) by spline and held by spacer (31) in the axial direction.

BRAKE
OPERATE BRAKE
Operation when brake is “released”.
1. When the PCCS lever is in the “NEUTRAL” position and
the brake pedal is released, the maximum brake pressure
is applied to the back of brake piston (1) by the brake con-
trol valve.
2. As the oil pressure rises, brake piston (1) compresses
brake spring (2) and moves to the left to eliminate the
pressing force between discs (3) and plates (4).
3. The power transmitted from bevel gear shaft through HSS
to brake hub (6) is transmitted to output shaft (7), then to
the final drive.

When brake is “applied”.


1. When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake pressure
applied to the back of brake piston (1) starts to lower by
the brake control valve.
2. At this time, piston (1) is pushed back to the right by the
tension of braked spring (2), and it presses disc (3) and
plate (4) against brake drum (5). Brake drum (5) is fixed to
the steering case.
3. The power applied to brake hub (6) or output shaft (7) is
decreased since disc (3) and plate (4) are pressed.
4. The brake force can be adjusted by controlling the oil pres-
sure applied to the back side of brake piston (1) corre-
sponding to the stroke of the brake pedal.

FUNCTION OF BRAKE CONTROL VALVE


• The brake control valve is installed on the valve seat of the steering case.
• The brake control valve consists of 2 brake ECMV's, brake solenoid valve, and sudden stop prevention
valve, and controls the brake.
• The brake control valve is in the circuit between the power train pump and brake piston, and consists of 2
sets of brake ECMV (right and left).
• The brake control valve sends the oil from the power train pump to the brake and controls the R.H. and L.H.
disc clutches.
• The controller sends signals to each ECMV corresponding to the right or left stroke of the joystick (steering,
directional and gear shift lever) (PCCS lever) to turn the machine gradually or sharply.
• When the brake pedal is depressed, the controller sends the command to the brake ECMV corresponding
to the pedal stroke to apply the R.H. and L.H. brakes to stop the machine.
• The brake is operated by controlling each ECMV and solenoid valve with the controller connected electri-
cally to PCCS lever and brake pedal.
• The sudden stop prevention valve is installed to prevent the machine from stopping suddenly when abnor-
mality occurs in the electrical system.
• When the parking brake lever is set in “LOCK” position, the controller sends the signal to the parking brake
solenoid valve to drain the oil between the R.H. and L.H. brake ECMVs and the brake piston to apply the
brake. The parking brake solenoid valve is connected electrically to the brake pedal, as well.

FUNCTION OF BRAKE ECMV


The brake ECMV keeps the brake oil pressure to the set pressure and furthermore changes the circuit to the
piston chamber of brake.

10-256 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM

Function of pressure control valve


The proportional solenoid receives a current sent from the controller and this valve converts it into oil pressure.
Function of proportional solenoid
• The propulsion force is generated corresponding to the command current from the controller.
• The thrust generated by the proportional solenoid is applied to the pressure control valve spool to generate
a hydraulic pressure. Thus, the oil flow and pressure is controlled by controlling the command current to
change the thrust and let the pressure control valve operate.
Function of fill switch
• When the brake is filled with oil, the fill switch is turned “ON” by the pressure applied to the brake. This
signal allows the oil pressure to build up.
• At the moment when the brake is filled with oil, the fill switch outputs the signal (fill signal) to the controller
to notify the finishing of filling.
• While the oil pressure is applied to the brake, the fill switch outputs the signal (fill signal) to the controller to
notify the presence of the oil pressure.

OPERATE BRAKE ECMV


Operation when PCCS lever is in “NEUTRAL” position, brake pedal is “re-
leased”, and parking brake lever is in “FREE” position
(Machine “traveling straight”, R.H. and L.H. brakes “released”, parking brake “released”)

D155AXI-8 10-257
COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

1. When the joystick (steering, directional and gear shift lever (PCCS lever)) is in “NEUTRAL” position and the
brake pedal is “released”, proportional solenoid (1) of the brake ECMV is energized and pushes ball (2) to
the left and closes the sealing part.
2. The oil in port (P) of the brake ECMV flows in port (B) and pushes valve (3) to the left to connect port (P) to
port (A) and disconnect port (B) from port (DR). At this time, the oil flows in the port behind the brake piston.
As the oil pressure increases, the brake piston is pushed to the left to compress the brake spring, then the
brake is “released”.
3. When the parking brake lever is set in the “FREE” position, the parking brake solenoid valve is de-ener-
gized. Accordingly, the pilot pressure of brake ECMV port (S) remains.
Operation when PCCS lever is in “NEUTRAL” position, brake pedal is “de-
pressed”, and parking brake lever is in “FREE” position
(Machine “stopped”, R.H. and L.H. brakes “applied”, parking brake “released”)

1. When the brake pedal is depressed, proportional solenoids (1) of L.H. and R.H. brake ECMV are de-ener-
gized to open the sealing part of ball (2).
2. The controller outputs the command current to proportional solenoids (1) corresponding to the brake pedal
stroke.
3. Proportional solenoid (1) generates the propulsion force in proportion to the command current. This propul-
sion force is balanced with the sum of the propulsion force generated by the oil pressure in the back pres-
sure port of the brake piston and the tension of spring (4), then the brake pressure is set up to adjust the
brake force.

10-258 D155AXI-8

4. When the brake pedal is depressed fully, the brake pedal switch is turned “ON”, and the parking brake sole-
noid valve is energized to drain the pilot pressure of the brake ECMV port (S). This performs the same
function as when the parking brake lever is set to “LOCK” position.

1. When the parking brake lever is in “LOCK” position, the parking brake lever switch is turned “ON” and coil
(1) of the parking brake solenoid valve is energized.
2. Spool (3) is pushed to the right direction by push pin (2), then port (P) and (T) are opened to drain the pilot
pressure of the L.H. and R.H. brake ECMV.
3. The oil flown into the brake piston back pressure port is drained through the brake ECMV.
4. The oil pressure in the port behind the brake piston continues to decrease, then the brake is fully “applied”
and kept applied.
5. When the engine is restarted, as ports (P) and (T) are still opened, the brake is kept “applied”.
6. When the parking brake lever is in “FREE” position, the parking brake lever switch is turned “OFF” and coil
(1) of the parking brake solenoid valve is de-energized.
7. Spool (3) is moved to the left, and closes ports (P) and (T) to maintain the pilot pressure of the L.H. and
R.H. brake ECMV.

• The sudden stop prevention valve is installed to prevent the machine from stopping suddenly when an ab-

• Sudden stop prevention valve (1) is installed in the drain circuit of the brake ECMV so that the pressure of
port (DR) does not drop suddenly when brake ECMV coil (2) is de-energized, and consequently the sudden

1. The power from the bevel gear shaft and steering clutch is transmitted to 1st pinion (10) to rotate 1st gear
(13) meshed with the 1st pinion and sun gear (2) meshed with the 1st gear.
2. The rotation of sun gear (2) is transmitted to planetary gear (7). Since ring gear (8) meshed with planetary
gear (7) is fixed to cover (6), planetary gear (7) rotates along ring gear (8) and revolves around sun gear
(2).
3. Then, the rotating force of sun gear (2) forms the rotating force of carrier (3), which supports planetary gear
(7), and is transmitted to sprocket boss (4) via shaft (15).
4. The rotating direction of carrier (3) is the same as that of sun gear (2).
The rotational force transmitted to sprocket boss (4) is further transmitted to sprocket teeth (5).

OPERATION OF HSS MOTOR


1. 7 pistons (3) are attached to the disc part of drive shaft (1)
with a manner just like a spherical joint. Each piston (3)
forms a specific angle with drive shaft (1), and stored in
cylinder block (4).
2. It is assumed that the shaft of the disc is supported to ena-
ble free rotation of the disc. When force (F) is applied to
the disc diagonally, force (F) is divided into vertical force to
the disc (F1) and circumferential force (F2). (F1) pushes
the disc to axis direction, and (F2) rotates the disc clock-
wise.

3. Instead, when force (F'), not force (F) is applied to the disc,
the force (F') is also divided into (F'1) and (F'2), and the
disc is rotated counterclockwise by force (F'2).

4. The pressurized oil sent from the main piston pump enters
the piston motor inlet port, and the oil pressure is applied
to the back of piston (3), and drive shaft (1) is rotated by
inclination (Q) of piston (3) and cylinder block (4).

COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

FUNCTION OF COUNTERBALANCE VALVE AND CHECK VALVE OF HSS MOTOR


8: Counterbalance valve
9: Check valve
• When the steering is operated on a downhill slope, the
gravity force tends to make the current driving speed faster
than the speed by motor (engine) rotation.
• If the steering is operated while the engine is running at
low speed, the motor rotates under no load and machine
runs away. This may cause an extremely dangerous condi-
tion.
• These valves control the steering operation corresponding
with the engine speed (pump discharged volume) in order
to prevent such a dangerous condition.

OPERATION OF COUNTERBALANCE VALVE AND CHECK VALVE OF HSS MO-


TOR
During normal travel (flat ground and uphill ground)
1. When steering lever is operated, the pressurized oil from
the control valve is supplied to port (PA).
2. It pushes open check valve (9A), and flows from motor in-
let port (MA) to motor outlet port (MB).
3. The outlet port side of the motor is closed by check valve
(9B) and spool (8), so the pressure at the oil supply side

4. The pressurized oil at the oil supply side flows from orifice
(E1) of spool (8) into chamber (S1).
5. When the pressure in chamber (S1) increases higher than
the reaction force of the spool selector pressure, spool (8)
is pushed to the right.
6. Motor outlet port (MB) and port (PB) are connected to the
outlet passage, and the motor outlet side opens and the
motor turns.

During downhill travel


1. If the machine runs away on a downhill, the motor runs idle
and the pressure on the motor inlet side decreases.
2. Through orifice (E1), the pressure in chamber (S1) drops.
3. When the pressure in chamber (S1) decreases lower than
the spool selector pressure, spool (8) is pushed back to
the left by the reaction force of springs (13) and (14), and
port (MB) on the outlet side is throttled.
4. The pressure on the motor outlet side increases and rotat-
ing resistance is generated in the motor, thus the machine
is prevented from running away.
5. Spool (8) moves to a position where the force caused by
the machine weight and the hydraulic force on the motor
inlet side are balanced with the pressure of motor outlet
port (MB).
6. In this way, it throttles the motor outlet port circuit and ena-
bles to steer at a speed that matches the volume of oil dis-
charged from the pump.

COMPONENT PARTS OF POWER TRAIN SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

FUNCTION OF SAFETY VALVE OF HSS MOTOR


11: Safety valve
• When the operation of the steering is finished, the outlet
and inlet circuits of the motor are closed. Since the motor
is turned by inertial force, the pressure on the motor outlet
side increases abnormally, and the motor or piping may be
damaged. The safety valve releases this abnormal pres-
sure into the motor inlet side to protect the devices from
damage.
• This safety valve releases abnormal pressure into inlet
side when either (MA) or (MB) becomes outlet side.

OPERATE SAFETY VALVE OF HSS MOTOR


When pressure in chamber (MB) increases (motor turns right)
1. When the operation of the steering is finished, the check
valve of the counterbalance valve closes chamber (MB) in
the outlet side circuit.
2. Since the motor continues rotation because of inertial
force, the pressure on the outlet (MB) side increases.

4. The pressurized oil moves poppet (1) to the left and flows
into chamber (MB) in the circuit on the opposite side.

When pressure in chamber (MA) increases (motor turns left)


1. When the operation of the steering is finished, the check
valve of the counterbalance valve closes chamber (MA) in
the outlet circuit.
2. Since the motor continues rotation because of inertial
force, the pressure on the outlet (MA) side increases.

10-288 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM

OPERATE SELF-PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE


When engine is stopped (When all oil pressures are low)

1. Spring (6) pushes poppet (5) to the seat, and the circuit between ports (PR) and (T) is closed.
2. Spring (7) pushes spool (8) to the left side, and the ports (P1) and (PR) are connected to each other.
3. Spring (3) pushes valve (2) up, and ports (P1) and (P2) are disconnected from each other.

D155AXI-8 10-289
COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

When load pressure (P2) is lower than output pressure (PR) of self-pressure re-
ducing valve

1. Spring (3) and the pressure (PR) [0 MPa {0 kg/cm2}  when the engine is stopped] push valve (2) in the di-
rection to disconnect ports (P1) and (P2) from each other. When the hydraulic oil enters port (P1), the ex-
pression [pressure (P1) ≒ force of spring (3) + (area d x pressure (PR))] holds, and the self pressure reduc-
ing valve adjusts the opening between ports (P1) and (P2) so that pressure (P1) is maintained higher than
pressure (PR).
2. When pressure (PR) rises above the set pressure, poppet (5) opens and hydraulic oil flows from port (PR),
through hole (a) in spool (8) and the opening of poppet (5) to the tank port (T).
3. Therefore, differential pressure is developed across hole (a) in spool (8), and it moves spool (8) to discon-
nect ports (P1) and(PR) from each other. Thus, this valve uses the area of the opening to regulate pressure
(P1) to a certain level [set pressure] and supplies it as pressure (PR).

10-290 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM

Operation when load pressure (P2) is high

1. When load pressure (P2) rises due to digging or other operations, pump discharged volume increases and
pressure (P1) rises. When the expression [Force exerted by pressure (P1) > Force of spring (3) + Force
(area (d) x pressure (PR))] holds, and valve (2) moves downward to its stroke end. As a result, the opening
between the ports (P1) and (P2) increases, the passage resistance becomes smaller to reduce engine
horsepower loss.
2. When pressure (PR) rises above the set pressure, poppet (5) opens and hydraulic oil flows from port (PR),
through hole (a) in spool (8) and the opening of poppet (5) to the tank port (T).
3. Therefore, differential pressure is developed across hole (a) in spool (8), and it moves spool (8) to discon-
nect ports (P1) and(PR) from each other. Thus, this valve uses the area of the opening to regulate pressure
(P1) to a certain level [set pressure] and supplies it as pressure (PR).

D155AXI-8 10-291
COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

Operation when abnormally high pressure is generated

When pressure (PR) of the self-pressure reducing valve rises abnormally high, ball (10) separates from the seat
against the spring (9) to allow the oil to flow from port (PR) to port (T) so as to reduce the pressure (PR). As a
result, the equipment (EPC valve, etc.), to which the oil pressure is supplied, is protected from the abnormal
high pressure.

FUNCTION OF WORK EQUIPMENT LOCK SOLENOID VALVE


• The work equipment lock valve is installed between the source pressure valve and control valve in the work
equipment control circuit.
• When the work equipment lock lever is set in “FREE” position, the work equipment lock valve actuates
linked with work equipment lock switch to open the work equipment control circuit, then the work equipment
becomes operable.

The solenoid is operated by the electric signal to move the spool. As a result, the circuit between port (A) con-
nected to the source pressure valve and port (B) connected to the control valve is opened.

Gas volume: 500 cm3
Max. actuating pressure: 6.86 MPa {70 kg/cm2} 
Min. actuating pressure: 0.69 MPa {7 kg/cm2} 

FUNCTION OF PILOT CIRCUIT ACCUMULATOR


The accumulator is installed between the pressure reducing valve and the EPC valve.
Even if the engine is stopped with the work equipment still raised, the pressure of the nitrogen gas compressed
inside the accumulator sends the pilot pressure to the control valve to actuate it and enable the work equipment
to move down under its own weight.

OPERATE PILOT CIRCUIT ACCUMULATOR


1. After the engine is stopped, when the work equipment lev-
er is in NEUTRAL, chamber (A) inside the bladder is com-
pressed by the oil pressure in chamber (B).
2. When the work equipment lever is operated, the oil pres-
sure in chamber (B) goes 2.9 MPa {30 kg/cm2}  or less.
Pressure of the nitrogen gas in chamber (A) expands the
bladder and the oil in chamber (B) acts as the pilot pres-
sure to actuate the control valve.

FUNCTION OF NO CIRCUITING CONDITION OF QUICK DROP VALVE


• Fine control of lowering blade (Stroke of lever is 70 % and below.)
• QDV mode: OFF

• QDV = Quick Drop Valve


• The QDV is installed between the control valve and the blade lift cylinder.

10-296 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM

• When the blade control lever is set in “LOWER” position, the QDV prevents a vacuum on the cylinder bot-
tom side and shortens time lag before starting digging.
• The blade lowering speed is mostly decided by the pump discharged volume. However, it can be increased
by installing the quick drop valve.
• Since the QDV electronically controls the operation of the PCCS lever, the controller and EPC valve (QDV
is built-in), it is possible to select ON or OFF.

OPERATE QUICK DROP VALVE DURING NO CIRCUITING CONDITION


• Fine control of lowering blade (Stroke of lever is 70 % or less.)
• QDV mode: OFF

1. Since command current (X) from the controller to EPC valve is 0 A, main spool (1) is not switched.
2. The circuits between port (VH) and port (PH), between port (VB) and port (PB), are shut off.
3. The pressure oil of the lift cylinder head flows from port (VH) to tank (T) through the control valve.

OPERATE QUICK DROP VALVE DURING CIRCUITING CONDITION


Lowering blade (lever stroke 70 % or more)

D155AXI-8 10-297
COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

QDV mode: ON

1. 1,000 mA of command current (X) flows from the controller to EPC valve and the pilot pressure from the
EPC valve is transmitted to chamber (a) at the main spool.
2. Main spool (1) moves to the right and the circuits between port (VH) and port (PH)/port (VB) and port (PB),
get into circulating condition.
3. Most of the pressurized oil which has been flowing from port (PH) to port (VH), circulates and flows to port
(PB).
4. The pressurized oil which has been flowing to port (PB) merges with the pressure oil from port (VB) and
flows into the lift cylinder bottom.
5. The blade lowering speed is increased by the quantity of oil flowing into the lift cylinder bottom.
6. Thus, vacuum on the lift cylinder bottom is prevented.

• Lowering blade (lever stroke 70 % or more)

10-298 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM

• QDV mode: ON

1. If the blade is thrust against the ground under the circulating condition of blade lowering, the lift cylinder
bottom pressure rises.
2. When the lift cylinder bottom pressure becomes 3.43 MPa {35 kg/cm2}  or more, selector valve spool (2)
moves to the left.
3. The pilot pressure from the EPC valve is blocked and pressure chamber (a) of main spool (1) is connected
to drain circuit (TS).
4. Main spool (1) moves to the left by the force of spring (3).
5. The lift cylinder bottom is connected to the circuit between port (PB) and port (VB), thus circuit becomes no
circulating condition (oil cannot flow from head to bottom) and blade can thrust against ground.

PISTON VALVE
FUNCTION OF PISTON VALVE FOR BLADE LIFT CYLINDER
The piston valve is installed on the piston in the blade lift cylinder. When the piston reaches its stroke end, the
valve releases the oil from the hydraulic pump to reduce the oil pressure being exerted on the piston.

D155AXI-8 10-299
COMPONENT PARTS OF WORK EQUIPMENT SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

In addition the piston valve relieves the shock which occurs when the piston comes into contact with the cylinder
head or the bottom and serves to reduce the subsequent surge pressure in the cylinder by letting the oil escape
from the cylinder before the piston reaches its stroke end.

OPERATION OF PISTON VALVE FOR BLADE LIFT CYLINDER


Operation when piston valve is close (during stroke)
1. Pressurized oil from the work equipment pump acts on pis-
ton (2) and piston valve (3).
2. Then, piston valve (3) is pushed to the right and contacts
the tapered part of piston valve seat (4) to seal in the oil.
As a result, the pressure in the cylinder rises to move pis-
ton (2) to the right.

Operation when piston valve is open (at stroke end)


1. Just before piston rod (1) reaches the end of its stroke, the
tip of valve (6) contacts the cylinder bottom, so valve (6)
and piston valve (3) stop at that position and do not move
further. Only piston (2) moves further.
2. The oil at the cylinder head which has been sealed in by
piston valve (3) escapes through piston valve seats (4)
and (5) at this time, and the pressure inside the cylinder
stops rising.

FUNCTION OF IMU SENSOR


• This sensor is installed to the inside of the machine. It detects the state of machine posture, and outputs it.
• This sensor detects angular velocities and acceleration of 3 axes of the longitudinal, the lateral, and the ver-
tical directions of the machine as the machine posture information.
NOTICE

tion design surface.

D155AXI-8 10-323
COMPONENT PARTS OF ICT SYSTEM 10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

CALIBRATION METHOD OF IMU SENSOR


CALIBRATION METHOD OF MACHINE ROLL ANGLE

• If the slope angle of the ground before performing the calibration is (θ), and the difference of the angle be-
tween the machine and IMU sensor (1) is (θi), the value of “Blade slope” before calibration is the combined
value of roll angle measured by IMU sensor (1) and blade tilt angle. If the blade tilt angle is (θt), “Blade
slope” display is the following formula at posture (Fig. A).
Measured value of roll angle (a) = θ + θt + θi
• The value of “Blade slope” will be the following formula at posture (Fig. B) in which the machine is placed at
the same posture as (A) but the machine direction is turned 180 °.
Measured value of roll angle (c) = θ + θt + θi
• By adjusting blade tilt angle to 0.0 ° at step 5 of TESTING AND ADJUSTING, "CALIBRATION OF IMU
SENSOR", "Calibration of roll angle and pitch angle", the formula becomes θt = 0.0. So, actual machine
angle (= adjustment value of roll angle) at posture (Fig. B) can be obtained with the following formula.
Adjustment value of roll angle = {Measured value of roll angle (c) - Measured value of roll angle (a)} / 2 =
{(θ + θi) - (-θ + θi)} / 2 = θ
• The inclination of the IMU sensor in rightward and leftward directions can be corrected by inputting the ad-
justment value of roll angle to the control box.

10-324 D155AXI-8
10 STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION COMPONENT PARTS OF ICT SYSTEM

CALIBRATION METHOD OF MACHINE PITCH ANGLE

• If slope angle of the ground for calibration is (θ), and angle difference of the machine and IMU sensor (1) is
(θi), the value of “Mainfall slope” before calibration is equal to the measured value of pitch angle of IMU
sensor (1). So, value of “Mainfall slope” at posture (Fig. A) is the following formula.
Measured value of pitch angle (b) = -θ + θi
• The value of “Mainfall slope” will be the following formula at posture (Fig. B) in which the machine is placed
at the same posture as (A) but the machine direction is turned 180 °.
Measured value of pitch angle (d) = θ + θi
• As mentioned above, actual machine angle (= pitch angle adjustment value) at posture (Fig. B) can be ob-
tained with the following formula.
Adjustment value of pitch angle = {Measured value of pitch angle (d) - measured value of pitch angle (b)} /2
= {(θ + θi) - (-θ + θi)} / 2 = θ
• The inclination of the IMU sensor in forward and backward directions can be corrected by inputting the ad-
justment value of pitch angle to the control box.
