Abstract
To make it possible to control supply, discharge, and recycled flow rates independently of each other for the stick cylinder in a construction machine comprising first and second stick spool valves respectively connected to first and second hydraulic pumps. [Solution] A poppet valve is provided at upstream side of the first stick spool valve for controlling a supply flow rate from first hydraulic pump, the first stick spool valve is configured to supply hydraulic flow from the poppet valve to the stick cylinder without restricting the flow, and when the stick cylinder is extended, the poppet valve is configured to control supply flow rate from the first hydraulic pump to head side oil chamber, the first stick spool valve is configured to control recycled flow rate from a rod side oil chamber to the head side oil chamber, and the second stick spool valve is configured to control the supply flow rate from second hydraulic pump to head side oil chamber and the discharge flow rate from the rod side oil chamber to an oil tank.
