A connection device attached to an outlet end of a pipe of pressurized fluid such as compressed air and used for connecting the pipe to a supply inlet of a utilization device, having an automatically operated valve built therein and arranged to be opened by only pressing it against the inlet of the utilization device to supply the pressurized fluid to the utilization device and closed by only separating it from the inlet of the utilization device to shut off any leakage of the fluid. In the device of this invention, the structure and arrangement of the automatic valve are improved for enabling size reduction of the device. Accordingly, the device of this invention is especially suitable in the case where a plurality of devices are arranged on a single base member and plural pipes connected thereto are automatically connected to and disconnected from corresponding plural utilization devices at the same time.

Pipe connection device

A hydraulic motor control circuit for use in a device for driving construction equipment, such as shovel loader, which comprises a hydraulic driving motor, a pump for feeding compressed oil to the hydraulic motor and a tank for receiving the compressed oil discharged from the hydraulic motor. The circuit comprises a pilot operation type main valve for controlling the oil flow between the pump and the motor and between the motor and the tank, and a remote control valve for feeding a pilot oil pressure to a pilot chamber of the main valve to turn the main valve to a first position for driving the hydraulic motor. As a feature of this invention, the control circuit further comprises an apparatus for detecting the slanting angle of a downward slope and feeding an oil pressure corresponding to the slanting angle to a second pilot chamber of the main valve. The main valve is adapted to turn from its first position to its second position in which the speed of rotation of the hydraulic motor is confined in accordance with the slanting angle.
