Fluid flow control apparatus for hydraulic pump of construction machine

Abstract

An apparatus for controlling the flow of a hydraulic pump of a construction machine according to the present disclosure includes: a pressure sensor detecting pressure signals corresponding to various control signal input values of the construction machine; a shuttle block including a plurality of shuttle valves dividing hydraulic lines connected with the pressure sensor into groups and extracting pressure oil of a hydraulic line under the highest pressure among hydraulic lines included in the corresponding group; auxiliary pressure sensors detecting the pressure of the pressure oil discharged from the shuttle block; electro proportional control valves in which opening rates are adjusted according to an applied signal and flows applied to signal lines are controlled to adjust discharge flows of main pumps; and a controller controlling the electro proportional control valves so that the opening rates of the electro proportional control valves are adjusted according to the magnitude of the pressure signal at the time of applying the pressure signal from the pressure sensor, wherein when the pressure sensor is judged as abnormal, the controller controls the operate rates of the electro proportional control valves to an opening rate corresponding to the magnitude of a signal outputted from the auxiliary pressure sensors.
