Abstract
A turn-drive apparatus capable of securing high acceleration at the time of turning start with a reduced relief loss includes a hydraulic pump of a variable capacity type, a turning motor, a turning control device, a relief valve, and a flow rate control device that controls a pump flow rate. The flow rate control device calculates a relief-cut-control target pump flow rate on the basis of the sum of a minimum relief flow rate and a turning-speed flow rate, and inputs a pump capacity command to the variable capacity-type hydraulic pump based thereon. The flow rate control device makes the relief-cut-control target pump flow rate larger than the sum of the minimum relief flow rate and the turning-speed flow rate at the time of turning start.
