Patent ID: 8615992

Claim:
A construction machine comprising: a negative parking brake whose braking state is released by supply of hydraulic fluid; and a parking brake hydraulic circuit that is branched from a hydraulic fluid supplying circuit supplying the hydraulic fluid to a transmission of the construction machine and supplies the hydraulic fluid to the parking brake, the parking brake hydraulic circuit comprising: a check valve that is provided closer to the parking brake than a branch portion from the hydraulic fluid supplying circuit and prevents backflow of the hydraulic fluid of the parking brake to the hydraulic fluid supplying circuit; an operation switching valve that is provided closer to the parking brake than the check valve and switches between an activation and a release of the parking brake; a relief valve that is interposed between the check valve and the operation switching valve and discharges the hydraulic fluid of the parking brake when the relief valve is opened; an accumulator that accumulates hydraulic fluid therein; a solenoid valve that supplies or stops the hydraulic fluid from the accumulator; and an emergency release valve that is provided in a hydraulic line from the operation switching valve to the parking brake and connects the parking brake and a hydraulic line from the solenoid valve by switching a valve position of the emergency release valve to release the parking brake, wherein the emergency release valve comprises a first pilot line to which fluid pressure between the operation switching valve and the check valve is applied and a second pilot line to which fluid pressure of the solenoid valve is applied, and the valve position of the emergency release valve is switched when the fluid pressure of the second pilot line is higher than the fluid pressure of the first pilot line by a predetermined value or more.
