Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A hydraulic driving device includes: a hydraulic motor configured to operate by flushing oil from a hydraulic pump through a high pressure oil passage and a low pressure oil passage; a low pressure selective valve configured to operate in accordance with differential pressure between the high pressure oil passage and the low pressure oil passage, and to discharge the oil in the low pressure oil passage inside a motor case; a tank oil passage configured to connect the inside of the motor case with an oil tank; and a choke throttle provided to the low pressure selective valve or to an oil passage lower than the low pressure selective valve.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A hydraulic driving device comprising: a hydraulic motor configured to operate by flushing oil from a hydraulic pump through a high pressure oil passage and a low pressure oil passage; a low pressure selective valve configured to operate in accordance with differential pressure between the high pressure oil passage and the low pressure oil passage, and to discharge the oil in the low pressure oil passage inside a motor case; a tank oil passage configured to connect the inside of the motor case with an oil tank; and a choke throttle provided to the low pressure selective valve or to an oil passage lower than the low pressure selective valve. 2 . The hydraulic driving device according to claim 1 , wherein the high pressure oil passage supplies oil discharged from the hydraulic pump to the hydraulic motor, and the low pressure oil passage is connected so as to flow back the oil discharged from the hydraulic motor to the hydraulic pump, and is included in a closed circuit which circulatively supplies the oil between the hydraulic motor and the hydraulic pump together with the high pressure oil passage. 3 . The hydraulic driving device according to claim 1 , wherein the choke throttle is an annular gap flow that satisfies the following formula. 0<(δ̂2)· d/L< 2.5 where δ=(D−d)/2, “D” represents a choke external diameter, “d” represents a choke internal diameter, and “L” represents a choke length. 4 . The hydraulic driving device according to claim 1 , wherein the choke throttle is a cylindrical gap flow that satisfies the following formula. 0<( d̂ 4)/ L< 1.6 where “d” represents a choke internal diameter, while “L” represents a choke length.
