A hydraulic driving device for a working machine surely prevents behavior of a single rod double acting cylinder not intended by an operator when discharge pressure of a main pump is raised to raise exhaust gas temperature to temperature required for burning particulate matter. A selector valveinterposed between a spool valveand a rod chamber of a single rod double acting cylinderand a section (a filter regeneration time actuation valve, a vehicle body controller) controlling the selector valve, are provided. A switch control section prevents a flow of oil directed from the rod chamber of the cylinder toward the spool valve by actuating the selector valve by a poppet of the selector valve when a by-pass cut valveis controlled to increase a load of an engineto a degree exhaust gas temperature reaches temperature required for burning particulate matter.

A hydraulic drive system for a working machine provides improved safety during forced regeneration. Upon input of a forced regeneration command signal from a forced regeneration switch, a controller detects non-operated states of all hydraulic actuators such as an arm cylinder arranged on a hydraulic excavator based on a lock detection signal from a gate lock detection switch, and also an attitude of a front working mechanism. The attitude is proper from the standpoint of safety. The detection is based on an arm angle signal from an arm angle sensor, a bucket angle signal from a bucket angle sensor and a boom pressure signal from a boom pressure sensor. Taking the detection of the non-operated states and proper attitude as conditions, the controller outputs control signals to a boosting proportional solenoid valve and flow-rate controlling, proportional solenoid valve to make a forced regenerator conduct forced regeneration.

A prime mover revolution speed control system for a hydraulic construction machine sets the revolution speed of the prime mover in accordance with the operating state invoked by an operating command and as a result of a determination of an excavation state so that that the revolution speed of the engine can be increased for a heavy load (speedup) in the excavation state. When the control lever is fully operated in the direction of arm crowding, the control leveris also operated, and first judgment conditions are all met to conclude that an excavation state has begun. During excavation work, when the control leveris subjected to a half or greater operation in the arm crowding direction, second judgment conditions are all met to conclude that the excavation state persists, and the speedup sequence is continued.

A computing section computes a reference revolution-speed decrease modification amount DNLR; and multiplies an engine revolution speed modification gain KNL by a reference revolution-speed decrease modification amount DNL and then DNLR, to thereby compute an engine revolution-speed decrease modification amount DND based on input change of an operation pilot pressure, which is modified in accordance with DNLR. At the time when a lever operation input from an operation command unit is changed from full stroke to half stroke, if a pump delivery pressure is in a pressure range of a pump absorption torque control region Y where the pump delivery pressure is lower than that in a region X, the reference revolution-speed decrease modification amount computing sectioncomputes the modification amount DNLR to be 0, and therefore lowering of a target engine revolution speed with auto-acceleration control is not caused.
