- the abnormality in the signal system is, for example, that the controller 33 is not outputting a switching signal to the valves 30 and 32, or conversely, the switching signal is not output. Yes, this abnormality can be detected by the controller 33 itself. Alternatively, the current of the signal output line may be measured by an ammeter to determine abnormality.
- the hydraulic circuit according to this embodiment includes a boom lowering sensor 34 and an arm pushing sensor 35 as means for detecting a combined operation of boom lowering / arm pushing to perform the regeneration.

- FIG. 2 shows a flowchart for explaining the flow path switching control of the controller 33.
- the controller 33 determines whether or not a combined operation of lowering the boom / pushing the arm is performed in step S1, and if YES in step S1, determines whether there is an abnormality in step S2. If NO in step S2, that is, if there is no abnormality, the controller 33 selects the first flow path in step S3 and performs a regenerative action. On the other hand, if YES in step S2, that is, if it is determined that an abnormality has occurred, the controller 33 selects the second flow path in step S4. On the other hand, if NO in step S1, that is, if the combined operation of lowering the boom / pushing the arm is not performed, the controller 33 selects the second flow path in step S4 because regeneration is unnecessary.
- the first flow path that sends the return oil to the arm cylinder 8 via the regenerative line 26 and performs the regenerative action. It is possible to select the second flow path that sends the return oil to the boom control valve 12 and stops the regenerative action. For this reason, at the normal time, the first flow path can be selected and the potential energy of the boom 4 can be used as regenerative power for increasing the pushing operation of the arm 5, while the regenerative valve 30 and the meter-out valve 32, for example.
- the first and second pilot check valves 28 and 29, which are check valves for preventing leakage are also used as a flow path switching device for switching the flow path, Compared with the case where the switching device has a dedicated valve, the circuit configuration can be simplified and the equipment cost can be reduced.
- the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, and includes, for example, the following forms.
- the first flow path for performing the regenerative action and the second flow path for stopping the regenerative action can be selected.
- a third flow path formed by opening both 28 and 29 may be added. According to the third flow path, the return oil from the head side chamber of the boom cylinder 7 can be sent to both the regeneration line 26 and the boom control valve 12.
- the abnormality that triggers the selection of the second flow path is not limited to the abnormality in the output from the controller 33 as described above.
- “sticking” in which the regenerative valve 30 and the meter-out valve 32 do not move from one position may be detected as the abnormality.
- a hydraulic circuit provided in a construction machine has a regenerative function, and the circuit state is at least between a state where the regenerative action is activated and a state where the regenerative action is stopped. What can be switched is provided.
- the hydraulic circuit is provided for a hydraulic pump that discharges hydraulic oil, a plurality of hydraulic actuators that are operated by supplying hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump, and an operation from the hydraulic pump to a corresponding hydraulic actuator.
- a plurality of control valves that individually control the operation of each hydraulic actuator by operating the supply of oil, and return oil that is hydraulic oil returned to the tank from one of the hydraulic actuators.
- a flow path of the return oil from the specific hydraulic actuator that is the regeneration source is sent to the regenerative line by the flow path switching device, and the return oil is supplied to the specific hydraulic actuator. Because it can be switched between the second flow path that stops the regenerative action by sending it to the control valve for use, for example, when an abnormality related to the regenerative valve or meter-out valve occurs and these become uncontrollable, By selecting the second flow path that forms a normal circuit state in which regeneration is not performed, it is possible to ensure proper operation of the hydraulic actuator and continue the operation.
- the flow path switching device includes, for example, a first pilot check valve that can be switched between a state in which the flow of oil from the specific hydraulic actuator toward the control valve is blocked and a state in which the flow is permitted, and the regenerative valve in the regeneration line.
- a second pilot check valve that can be switched between a state of preventing and allowing an oil flow toward the regenerative valve on the upstream side, and a state of switching the state of the pilot check valve to the first and second pilot check valves And a controller for inputting signals.
- the use of the first and second pilot check valves having such a leakage prevention function in the flow path switching device makes the circuit configuration simpler than when separate valves are used for the leakage prevention and the flow path switching. Thus, the equipment cost can be reduced.
- the present invention is a construction comprising a lower traveling body, an upper revolving body that is pivotably mounted on the lower traveling body, a boom that is attached to the upper revolving body so as to be raised and lowered, and the hydraulic circuit.
- the specific hydraulic actuator is a boom cylinder that has a head side chamber and a rod side chamber and expands and contracts to raise and lower the boom by supplying hydraulic oil to the head side chamber and the rod side chamber
- the hydraulic circuit Includes a head side conduit connecting the head side chamber of the boom cylinder and a control valve provided for the boom cylinder, and the regenerative line branches off from the head side conduit.
- the potential energy of the boom can be used for the power of the other hydraulic actuator.
- the second flow path can be selected to ensure normal operation without regeneration.
- the construction machine further includes an arm that is rotatably connected to the tip of the boom, and the hydraulic circuit has a head side chamber and a rod side chamber as the other hydraulic actuator, and the head side chamber and the rod
- the regeneration line serves as the regeneration destination in the rod side chamber of the arm cylinder. It is preferable that they are connected.
- the arm speed can be increased by selecting the second flow path when the regenerative valve or meter-out valve cannot be controlled.
- the combined operation of boom lowering / arm pushing can be continued while losing the function.
