Abstract

See full text

A method for storing and reutilizing energy during operation of a hydrostatic actuator (EHA) having a hydraulic cylinder, a first bidirectional pump-motor rotationally coupled to an electric motor, and EHA valving and connections between the first pump-motor and the hydraulic cylinder. During at least one of two motoring quadrants, a hydraulic accumulator is charged using a second pump-motor whose rotation is driven by load-driven motoring of the first bidirectional pump-motor. During at least one of the pumping quadrants, driven rotation is imparted to the second pump-motor using stored energy from the accumulator, and said driven rotation of the second pump-motor is used to augment powered rotation of the first bidirectional pump-motor by the electric motor.
