Abstract
The present invention relates to a hydraulic secondary control system comprising a hydrostatic machine as a secondary unit which is connected to a pressure line in which an impressed pressure of approximately constant value is generated by a hydrostatic machine as a primary unit. The volume capacity of the secondary unit determines the torque delivered to a load and the torque needed by the load determines the speed of the secondary unit. When the desired speed and thus the volume capacity of the secondary unit is too high, the capacity exceeding the capacity of the primary unit supplying the pressure line, the pressure breaks down. To prevent this, the present invention provides to calculate a permissible capacity as defined by the rotary angle for the secondary unit in accordance with the nominal quantities of the primary and secondary unit. When the rotary angle of the secondary unit will be increased beyond the permissible value, the capacity is limited so that the volume of the secondary unit does not exceed the permissible value, thus maintaining the impressed pressure in the pressure line.
