Patent ID: 8104275

Claim:
A hydraulic circuit for heavy equipment, comprising: first to fourth hydraulic pumps connected to an engine; first switching valves composed of valves installed in flow paths of the first hydraulic pump and shifted to control hydraulic fluid fed to working devices including a boom; second switching valves composed of valves installed in flow paths of the second hydraulic pump and shifted to control hydraulic fluid fed to working devices including an arm; third switching valves composed of valves installed in flow paths of the third hydraulic pump and shifted to control hydraulic fluid fed to a swing device; a pilot signal path connected to a hydraulic tank through the first to third switching valves to sense whether the first to third switching valves are shifted, and coupled to a pilot signal pressure supply path of the fourth hydraulic pump; a throttling part installed in the pilot signal path to form a signal pressure; and a valve installed in a parallel flow path branch-connected to the pilot signal path on upstream and downstream sides of the throttling part, and supplying the signal pressure in the pilot signal path to the pilot signal pressure supply path when a signal pressure that exceeds a predetermined pressure is formed in the pilot signal path.
