Patent ID: 7275370

Claim:
A control arrangement for the pressure medium supply of at least two hydraulic consumers, comprising a pump having a variable capacity, and comprising two adjustable meter-in orifices, a first one of which is disposed between a supply line issuing from the pump and a first hydraulic consumer, and a second one of which is disposed between a supply line and a second hydraulic consumer, and comprising two pressure compensators, a first one of which is arranged downstream from the first meter-in orifice, and a second one of which is arranged downstream from the second meter-in orifice, and control pistons of which are adapted to be subjected on a front side to a pressure downstream from the respective meter-in orifice in an opening direction, and in a closing direction to a highest load pressure or to a pressure derived therefrom, wherein the pump and the meter-in orifices are adjustable by a control means for outputting a control signal to the pump in which the sum of the target values predetermined for the meter-in orifices is considered.
