Abstract

A hydraulic control system may include a closed loop hydraulic circuit with at least one hydraulic motor. A plurality of variable displacement pumps may be fluidly connected in parallel in the closed loop hydraulic circuit. A plurality of hydraulic actuators may be configured to adjust the displacement of the variable displacement pumps. A pilot valve assembly may be configured to supply the hydraulic actuators with hydraulic fluid having a pilot pressure corresponding to a desired displacement of the variable displacement pumps. A pressure regulating device may be configured to limit the pilot pressure of the hydraulic fluid supplied to the hydraulic actuators when a working pressure in the closed loop hydraulic circuit reaches a maximum allowable working pressure.
