Abstract
Provided is a construction machine in which travel operability is not impaired when a combined operation is performed in which a single-rod hydraulic cylinder is driven during a travel operation. A hydraulic excavator includes a controller that controls the delivery direction and delivery flow rate of a closed-circuit pump, opens and closes a travel switching valve and an assist switching valve, and controls the delivery flow rate of the open-circuit pump, according to a travel operation lever and a work operation lever. The controller holds the assist switching valve in a closed position irrespective of whether or not the work operation lever is operated in a case where the travel operation lever is operated.
