Abstract: Disclosed is a construction machine which comprises: a command changing regulation section; a loading device for imposing, on an engine, a load for raising an exhaust temperature of the engine up to a value at which particulate matter accumulated in a filter is burnt; and an instruction section for instructing the loading device to perform an operation for loading the engine. The instruction section prohibits the loading device from changing a loading level on the engine, during a period where a manipulation-state detection section detects a presence of a manipulation of a manipulation section. The command changing regulation section is set to a changing permission mode for permitting a value of a command which is to be assigned to an actuator control valve, to be changed according to changing a value of a command to be output from a manipulation device, during a period where the loading level is constant.

Abstract: In a hydraulic excavator wherein a control valve unit having a plurality of control valves in a united form and an operation pattern switching valve for switching from one to another among combined patterns of operating valves and control valves are disposed side by side in front and rear positions respectively within a valve accommodating space formed between an upper frame base plate and a floor plate in an upper rotating body, the operation pattern switching valve is inclined forwardly downward in a state in which its upper surface side including an operating lever thereof faces an operation port being formed to the floor plate.

Abstract: After a remote control valve has been brought into a non-working state, a stop signal is to be sent from an engine controller in a controller to a governor controller in an engine to stop the engine automatically, under the condition that an illuminating lamp is turned off, after a preset allowance time has passed and when a gate lever provided at a gateway for an operator is opened (the operator gets off the machine). Further, before the engine is stopped, the operator is to be notified of the coming engine stop, and when the engine is stopped, a power supply is to be cut off automatically.

Abstract: A hydraulic circuit including a first throttle disposed upstream of pressure-reducing valves of a remote-control valve, which operates a control valve of hydraulic pilot type, so as to reduce primary pressures supplied from a pilot pump to the pressure-reducing valves. Bleed-off lines connect pilot lines to tanks. Second throttles are disposed on the bleed-off lines, respectively, so as to moderate rises in the pilot pressures supplied to pilot ports of the control valve. The hydraulic circuit prevents detrimental effects such as deterioration of operability while ensuring shock absorption during quick operation.

Abstract: A control device for a construction machine according to the present invention is configured so that in the construction machine provided with an automatic stop function which automatically stops an engine by an engine controller upon a predetermined automatic stop condition being met, and a hydraulic lock function which sets a hydraulic actuator locked in an inactive state by a hydraulic lock controller, there is provided a restart switch, where after an automatic stop of the engine, when the restart switch is operated, a restart command is transmitted to the engine controller via a route independently of that of an engine switch and independently of a hydraulic unlock condition, and the engine is restarted.

Abstract: The prevent invention provides an oil filter comprising a filter element housed in a casing, the filter element being formed of two or more cylindrical element pieces piled on top of another in the height direction and attachably and detachably connected through connecting members. Accordingly, the efficiency in each of manufacture, stock control and storage of the filter element can be improved, and the cost can be also reduced.

Abstract: A engine control device for a construction machine of the present invention is configured so that the engine control device comprises a first switch for selecting effectiveness/ineffectiveness of an automatic deceleration control by a controller and a second switch for selecting effectiveness/ineffectiveness of an automatic stop control, and that when a predetermined automatic stop condition is met even if the ineffectiveness of the automatic deceleration control is selected by the controller, the automatic deceleration control which reduces an engine speed is caused to be operated for a fixed period prior to the automatic stop control.

Abstract: A working machine includes a hydraulic pump and a travel control valve for each of left and right traveling unit. A tank-side fluid channel of the travel control valve includes an actuator control valve for controlling another actuator. When both travel control valves are operated at the same time and when at least one actuator control valve is operated, a merge control valve is opened to merge hydraulic fluid ejected from the two hydraulic pumps. At the same time, a feed switching valve is opened so that a different hydraulic pump supplies hydraulic fluid to the actuator control valve.
