Abstract

See full text

To avoid a large size of a direction change-over valve and enable accurate supply flow control when providing a flow control valve at an upstream side of the direction change-over valve to change the relationship between supply flow rate and discharge flow rate for a hydraulic actuator. The configuration is to control a supply flow rate to a stick cylinder based on an opening area of the stick's direction change-over valve and stick's flow control valve, calculate a target opening area of the stick's flow control valve based on a target supply flow rate from hydraulic pumps A, B to the stick cylinder, the opening area of the stick's direction change-over valve, and a target differential pressure between hydraulic pump A and a load pressure of stick cylinder, and control the stick's flow control valve so as to keep the target opening area calculated.
