Abstract
Electrically operated hydraulic pump systems are commonly used on tailgate loaders and small dump truck hoists. The systems include a switch which, when closed, couples the vehicle battery to the pump driving motor and a hydraulic lowering valve which, when opened, drains the output port of the pump to a reservoir. The control system for this electric pump system comprises an air cylinder operatively connected to the switch and a second cylinder operatively connected to the hydraulic lowering valve. A switching valve is connected between each air cylinder and a source of air pressure. The switching valves may be operated by an operator to pump or drain hydraulic fluid.
