Abstract

See full text

A control valve device comprises two direction control valves. The direction control valve includes an expansion side variable throttle portion and a contraction side variable throttle portion. The direction control valve includes an expansion side variable throttle portion and a contraction side variable throttle portion. When a hoist cylinder is telescopically operated to raise or lower a vessel, as the hoist cylinder approaches a stop position, a controller determines that the hoist cylinder gets close to the stop position. Based upon this determination, the controller variably adjusts a flow passage area of the direction control valve using the variable throttle portions or variably adjusts a flow passage area of the direction control valve using the variable throttle portions in such a manner as to slow down or speed up the telescopic speed of the hoist cylinder corresponding to the weight in the side of vessel.
