FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 show an embodiment of the second invention of the present invention, and the second invention is a further development of the first invention. The first invention has no problem in loaders such as loaders and forklifts, but in a machine such as a backhoe that performs downward excavation utilizing the weight of the working machine, the working machine is lowered from the upper loading height to a downward excavation posture. When lowering the working machine, if the switching valve 8 is operated and pressure oil on the bottom side of the boom cylinder is drained to the tank, the working machine is lowered due to the weight of the working machine. At this time, low pressure oil may be supplied from the pump so that the rod side does not become negative pressure. At this time, the pressure oil on the bottom side of the assist cylinder is collected in the pressure accumulator 13 and is utilized in the next work machine raising operation. Now, when the excavation state is entered after the working machine descends, in the first invention, the pressure oil is collected to the maximum in the pressure accumulator, the bottom side of the assist cylinder is at a high pressure, and the working machine floats due to the pressure. In this state, excavation using the weight of the working machine (excavation by the moment L × W) cannot be performed (see FIG. 8). Therefore, if an assist release valve 19 is provided between the pilot check valve 12 and the circuit on the bottom side of the assist cylinder, this valve switches when a certain pressure or more on the rod side of the boom cylinder is applied in the downward excavation state. Since the bottom circuit of the assist cylinder is drained to the tank and the working machine tries to fall by its own weight, it is possible to excavate using the own weight of the working machine. That is, in the first aspect of the present invention, the potential energy of the working machine during the lowering operation of the boom 2 is stored in the pressure accumulator 13 to the maximum extent of this, so that excavation using the weight of the working machine cannot be performed.
The second invention is an improvement of this, and the parts different from the first invention will be described below. In the embodiment of the second invention shown in FIG. 3, an assist release valve 19 having a communication position C and a drain position D is provided between the bottom side of the second boom cylinder 5b and the pilot check valve 12. There is. And this assist release valve 19 is provided with a spring 20.
Is urged toward the communication position C side, and the pressure on the rod side of the first boom cylinder 5a is expanded to the urging force of the spring 20 as a pitt pressure so as to switch to the drain position D side. There is.

In the second aspect of the present invention, when the boom operating valve 8 is switched to the boom lowering position B and the boom 2 is lowered, the same pressure oil as in the first aspect is stored in the pressure accumulator 13 as potential energy. Be stored. When the rod side pressure of the first boom cylinder 5a becomes larger than the urging force of the spring 20 in the above operation in the downward excavation state, the assist release valve 19 is switched to the drain position D, and the second boom cylinder 5b moves. The bottom side is opened to the tank side, the resistance in the descending direction by the second boom cylinder 5b disappears, the weight of the entire work machine is acted in the descending direction, and the working force due to this weight is descended by the first boom cylinder 5a. Is added to, and excavation using weight is performed. When the boom 2 is raised, the potential energy stored in the pressure accumulator 13 acts on the second boom cylinder 5b to be assisted, as in the first aspect of the invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the assist release valve 19 of the second embodiment has a structure in which instead of the spring 20, the pilot pressure of the boom operation valve 8 biases the assist release valve 19 toward the communication position C. It may be 19a. In this way, the assist release valve 19a can also serve as the pilot check valve 12, and the circuit can be simplified.

According to the present invention, the first and second use of two
Since one of the boom cylinders 5a, 5b can recover the potential energy of the working machine, it has been conventionally used in a standard specification lifting work machine such as a backhoe. A cylinder dedicated to recovering potential energy is not required, the structure is simple, and the cost can be reduced. Further, it is also possible to cancel the assist operation by the recovery of the potential energy under a predetermined condition and use the potential energy of the work machine as it is when the work machine is descended and excavated. Further, by switching the assist release valve, not only the raising operation but also the descending excavation operation of the working machine can be performed in all the lifting cylinders.
