US Patent 11142888 Hydraulic machine

A first required flow rate is calculated as a function of a first maximum allowable flow rate and a value of a first signal. A second required flow rate is calculated as a function of a value of the second signal. When the first maximum allowable flow rate is higher than a first capacity, the value of the first signal is a maximum level, and the value of the second signal is equal to or higher than a minimum level and equal to or lower than a maximum level, a first working fluid supply is controlled to discharge working fluid at a flow rate equal to the first capacity, and a second working fluid supply is controlled to discharge working fluid at a flow rate obtained by deducting the first capacity from the first maximum allowable flow rate, added to the second required flow rate.
