Abstract
A hybrid work machine includes: an engine configured to drive a hydraulic pump as a hydraulic source of a hydraulic actuator; an engine-assist motor generator attached to the engine; an electric motor for use in a part of a driving system of the work machine; an electricity storage device configured to store generated power of the motor generator; a power converter disposed between the electric motor and DC buses; and a buck-boost converter disposed between the DC buses and the electricity storage device, and configured to perform power transfer between the DC buses and the electricity storage device by raising and lowering a voltage of the DC buses, the hybrid work machine, further comprises: a controller configured to temporarily raise the voltage of the DC buses when a torque required for the electric motor exceeds a torque outputtable at the voltage of the DC buses connected to the power converter.
