Engine speed control system for construction machine

摘要

An engine speed control system for a construction machine is arranged in association with its hydraulic circuit, which has main pumps (2,3,4), a communication line (15) through which input ports of travel-controlling directional control valves (5,9) are connected with each other, and a travel-controlling communication valve (16) arranged in the communication line (15). The engine speed control system is provided with pilot valves (5a,9a) arranged in a pilot line (18) to control traveling, pilot valves (6a,7a,8a,10a) arranged in a pilot line (19) to control booms and the like, pilot valves (12a,13a,14a) arranged in a pilot line (22) to control revolving, earth moving and the like, a pressure sensor (21) for detecting pressures in the pilot lines (18,19), another pressure sensor (22) for detecting a pressure in the pilot line (22), an engine controller (24) for performing automatic idling control or its cancellation in accordance with signals from the pressure sensors (21,22), and a signal line (26) for changing over the travel-controlling communication line (16) into a communicating position in response to a pressure in the pilot valve (19). <IMAGE>
