Abstract

A construction machine float valve is disclosed, which can remove a spool stick phenomenon that may occur during leveling and flattening work. The float valve includes a valve block including first and second actuator ports formed therein to respectively communicate with a large chamber and a small chamber of a hydraulic cylinder of a working device and a tank port formed therein to selectively communicate with the first and second actuator ports, a holding poppet installed in a path that connects the first actuator port to the second actuator port and the tank port to be opened or closed, a spool installed in the valve block to be shifted to open the path through sifting the holding poppet to a holding function releasing position, a boom-up signal pressure port configured to receive boom-up pilot pressure applied thereto to make the spool return to a neutral position if the spool does not return to the neutral position when the boom-down pilot pressure is released, a piston configured to make the spool return to the neutral position through pressing the spool by means of the boom-up pilot pressure that is applied to the boom-up signal pressure port, and a drain port configured to drain the hydraulic fluid from a pressure chamber if the piston is pressed by the boom-up pilot pressure or if the spool is shifted by the boom-down pilot pressure.
