Braking control apparatus for slewing type working machine

摘要

Provided is a braking control apparatus for a slewing type working machine capable of giving a braking operation easily intuitively grasped. This apparatus includes: a flow control valve actuator increasing an opening of a flow control valve between a slewing hydraulic motor and a hydraulic pump according to an operation amount of a slewing operation member; pressure control valves limiting respective maximums of an inlet and outlet pressures of the hydraulic motor to a set value corresponding to a pressure command signal to be input; a motor-side pressure controller which retains a set pressure of the motor inlet sided pressure control valve to a pressure for motor driving and lets a set pressure of the motor outlet side pressure control valve be a set pressure for a braking torque corresponding to an operation amount of a braking operation member other than the slewing operation member; and a valve opening limiter reducing the opening of the flow control valve in correspondence with the operation of the braking operation member.
