A pivoting unit for construction equipment is provided which can ensure a brake performance for an upper pivoting body thereof for any pivoting power source applied thereto without a limitation to the applied pivoting power source. The pivoting unit for a construction equipment, comprises a pivoting motor, a pivoting reducer connected to the pivoting motor, and a parking brake device which is installed between the pivoting motor and the pivoting reducer and restricts the rotation of the pivoting reducer independently of the pivoting motor.

A shovel includes a lower traveling body, an upper turning body turnably mounted on the lower traveling body, an image capturing device attached to the upper turning body, and a display device. The operating condition of an object detecting function using the image capturing device is displayed on the display device.

A working machine according to one aspect of the present invention, includes a support member, a turn member, a pin inserted to both of the support member and the turn member to turnably support the turn member on the support member, a flange fixed to the pin, a collar inserted to an insertion hole formed in the flange, a retainer bolt inserted to the collar and attached by being screwed to the turn member and the support member, a contact portion included in the flange, and a regulator included in the support member. The regulator contacts to the contact portion with a clearance kept between the collar and an inner circumference surface of the insertion hole, thereby regulating turning of the flange around the pin.

To provide a work machine that can stop unexpected operation of actuators faster than it actually occurs even if unintended operation occurs at the time of gate lock lever switching that leads to such unexpected operation. In the work machine, a controller switches a lock valve from a lock position to a release position in a case where a lock operation device is operated from a permission position to a prohibition position; decides, on the basis of a result of detection by a pressure sensor, whether or not a pilot hydraulic fluid has been output from a pilot valve until first time elapses after the lock valve is switched to the release position; keeps the lock valve at the lock position if it is decided that the pilot hydraulic fluid has been output until the first time elapses; and switches the lock valve from the lock position to the release position if it is decided that the pilot hydraulic fluid has not been output until the first time elapses, and second time elapses.

To enable maintenance of a control valve in a narrow space, on a slewing frame an engine is disposed at a rear portion, a swivel joint is disposed between a pair of vertical plates, a slewing motor is disposed diagonally behind the swivel joint between the paired vertical plates, and a control valve is disposed diagonally behind the swivel joint between the paired vertical plates and forward of the engine. A detachment direction A of a plurality of spools of the control valve extends obliquely in such a way as to get closer to a right vertical plate as it goes rearward.

Disclosed is a seal assembly for a grading machine. The grading machine may include a machine body, a blade assembly, and a circle assembly supporting the blade assembly. The circle assembly may include a circle having a plurality of gear teeth. The grading machine may also include a drawbar assembly connecting the circle assembly to the machine body. The seal assembly may include a non-metallic seal component extending circumferentially around an inner circumference of the circle assembly for sealing the plurality of gear teeth.

A grading machine includes a machine body, a blade assembly, a circle supporting the blade assembly and including a plurality of teeth, a drawbar assembly connecting the circle to the machine body, and a cover plate coupled to a bottom portion of the drawbar assembly. The drawbar assembly includes a plurality of blocks, and the cover plate is configured to be coupled to the drawbar assembly via the plurality of blocks.

A swiveling work machine includes: a swivel base rotatable about a swivel axis extending in an up-down direction; a working device provided on the swivel base; a position detector provided on the swivel base to detect a position; and a calculator to calculate an orientation of the swivel base based on a detected position which is the position detected by the position detector, in which the calculator is configured or programmed to calculate an axis position which is a position of the swivel axis based on a plurality of the detected positions obtained during rotation of the swivel base about the swivel axis, and calculate the orientation of the swivel base, based on the axis position and the detected position.

A construction machine comprises a lower traveling body, an upper turning body, and a turning frame that constitutes the bottom portion of the upper turning body. The turning frame comprises a bottom plate, a first vertical plate and a second vertical plate, and a coupling member that divides the space between the first vertical plate and the second vertical plate. The coupling member includes a top plate and a front and rear pair of a front side plate and a rear side plate that extend downward from both ends of the top plate in the front to rear direction, and forms a box shape structure with the first vertical plate and the second vertical plate. The box shape structure has a first opening formed in the first vertical plate, a second opening formed in the second vertical plate, and a front engine support part formed in the top plate.

A hydraulic circuit for use on a construction machine includes a first valve, a second valve, and at least a third valve. The second and third valve each includes at least one inlet port connected to a first outlet port of the first valve. The first outlet port of each of the second and third valves are configured to reduce a first pressure to a second pressure and/or a third pressure downstream of the second valve and the third valve, respectively. The second valve and the third valve also include at least a second outlet port connected to a reservoir tank. A hydraulic motor is connected to the first outlet port of the second valve, which operates the hydraulic motor in a first direction. The hydraulic motor also is connected to the first outlet port of the third valve, which operates the hydraulic motor in a second direction.
