WE CLAIM
1. A vehicular hydraulic system, comprising:
a first hydraulic drive device configured to be driven by a hydraulic pressure
generated in a first hydraulic pump;
a second hydraulic drive device configured to exhibit an action different from that
of the first hydraulic drive device, and to be driven by a hydraulic pressure generated in a
second hydraulic pump; and
a single motor serving as a common power source for the first hydraulic pump and
the second hydraulic pump,
wherein a first hydraulic circuit including the first hydraulic pump and the first
hydraulic drive device and a second hydraulic circuit including the second hydraulic pump
and the second hydraulic drive device are separated and independent from each other,
the first hydraulic drive device is implemented by a hydraulic brake which is
allowed to be provided in a vehicle,
the second hydraulic drive device is implemented by a hydraulic jack for adjusting a
vehicle height of the vehicle,
the hydraulic jack includes:
a jack portion; and
a hydraulic pressure control unit configured to control a hydraulic
pressure of the jack portion, and
the hydraulic pressure control unit includes:
a reservoir in which oil is stored;
a first jack hydraulic passage through which the oil is supplied from the
reservoir to the jack portion;
a second jack hydraulic passage through which the oil is returned from the
jack portion to the reservoir;
an inlet control valve provided in the first jack hydraulic passage together
with the second hydraulic pump; and
an outlet control valve provided in the second jack hydraulic passage.
2. The vehicular hydraulic system according to claim 1, further comprising:
a pressure valve configured to release an excessive hydraulic pressure applied to at
least one of a discharge side of the first hydraulic pump and a discharge side of the second hydraulic pump.
3. A vehicular hydraulic system, comprising:
a first hydraulic drive device configured to be driven by a hydraulic pressure
generated in a first hydraulic pump;
a second hydraulic drive device configured to exhibit an action different from that
of the first hydraulic drive device, and to be driven by a hydraulic pressure generated in a
second hydraulic pump; and
a single motor serving as a common power source for the first hydraulic pump and
the second hydraulic pump,
wherein a first hydraulic circuit including the first hydraulic pump and the first
hydraulic drive device and a second hydraulic circuit including the second hydraulic pump
and the second hydraulic drive device are separated and independent from each other,
the first hydraulic drive device is implemented by a hydraulic brake which is
allowed to be provided in a vehicle,
the second hydraulic drive device is implemented by a hydraulic jack for adjusting a
vehicle height of the vehicle,
the hydraulic brake includes a first reservoir, in which oil is stored, connected to a
brake caliper,
a first intake valve that allows only an inflow of the oil from the first reservoir to
the first hydraulic pump is interposed in an oil passage through which the oil is sucked from
the first reservoir by the first hydraulic pump,
the hydraulic jack includes a second reservoir in which oil is stored,
a second intake valve that allows only an inflow of the oil from the second reservoir
to the second hydraulic pump is interposed in an oil passage through which the oil flows from
the second reservoir to a sucking port of the second hydraulic pump, and
a reference negative pressure with which the first intake valve is opened due to
sucking of the first hydraulic pump is set to be larger than a reference negative pressure with
which the second intake valve is opened due to sucking of the second hydraulic pump.
4. The vehicular hydraulic system according to any one of claims 1, 2, and 3,
wherein the second hydraulic circuit including the hydraulic jack includes a
pressure valve for protecting the second hydraulic pump, and
a valve opening pressure of the pressure valve is set to be larger than a maximum jack pressure for driving the hydraulic jack and smaller than a maximum discharge pressure
of the second hydraulic pump.
5. The vehicular hydraulic system according to any one of claims 1, 2, and 3, further
comprising:
a first control unit configured to control the first hydraulic drive device; and
a second control unit configured to control the second hydraulic drive device,
wherein the first control unit and the second control unit are integrated into a single
control device.
6. The vehicular hydraulic system according to any one of claims 1, 2, and 3, further
comprising:
a first control unit configured to control the hydraulic brake; and
a second control unit configured to control the hydraulic jack,
wherein the first control unit and the second control unit are configured to
simultaneously execute the respective controls.
7. The vehicular hydraulic system according to claim 6,
wherein when the first control unit controls an operation of the hydraulic brake, the
second control unit is configured to control the hydraulic jack to be in a stop state.
8. The vehicular hydraulic system according to claim 6 or claim 7,
wherein in a case where the first control unit determines that a start condition for
starting a brake control of the hydraulic brake is satisfied when the second control unit
controls an operation of the hydraulic jack, the second control unit is configured to control to
stop the operation of the hydraulic jack or cause the hydraulic jack to descend.
