Abstract
A pilot type switching valve includes: a housing bore formed in a valve body, the housing bore having an opening end; a spool slidably housed in the housing bore, the spool being configured to allow or block a flow of the working fluid to a first relief valve; a pilot chamber to which pilot pressure biasing the spool in the valve opening direction is guided; and a spring configured to bias the spool in the valve closing direction. The spool has a bottom surface on which the pilot pressure acts in such a manner that the spool is biased in the valve opening direction, and the area of the bottom surface is smaller than the sectional area of the housing bore.
