Traction control device
First Claim
1. A traction control device of a construction machine comprising a braking mechanism provided to each of wheels, the traction control device controlling the braking mechanism, the traction control device comprising:
- a rotation speed detector that detects a rotation speed of each of the wheels;
a vehicle speed estimator that estimates a vehicle speed of the construction machine; and
a braking mechanism controller that controls the braking mechanism, wherein the braking mechanism controller comprises;
a control deviation calculating section that calculates a control deviation based on the rotation speed and the vehicle speed;
a target brake torque calculating section that calculates a target brake torque applied to each of the wheels by the braking mechanism based on the control deviation;
a target brake torque determining section that determines whether or not the target brake torque reaches or exceeds a pre-stored threshold;
a reference wheel determining section that selects a reference wheel used as a reference for controlling the braking mechanism based on the target brake torque to each of the wheels; and
a target brake torque reducing section that reduces the target brake torque in accordance with a difference between the target brake torque to the reference wheel and the threshold when the target brake torque to one of the wheels reaches or exceeds the threshold.

Abstract
An object of the invention is to provide a traction control device capable of preventing a reduction in acceleration. A traction control device of the invention includes a braking mechanism controller that controls a braking mechanism. The braking mechanism controller includes: a target brake torque calculating section that calculates a target brake torque to each of wheels based on the rotation speed of the wheel and an estimated vehicle speed; a target brake torque determining section that determines whether or not the target brake torque reaches or exceeds a per-stored threshold; a reference wheel determining section that selects a reference wheel used as a reference for controlling the braking mechanism based on the target brake torque to each of the wheels; and a target brake torque reducing section that reduces the target brake torque in accordance with a difference between the target brake torque to the reference wheel and the threshold when the target brake torque to one of the wheels reaches or exceeds the threshold.
