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.

The present disclosure relates to a load dependent flow control system for directing hydraulic fluid to a hydraulic actuator. The load dependent flow control system includes a closed-center valve device for controlling hydraulic fluid flow to the actuator. The closed-center valve device includes a valve spool and an electro-actuator that adjusts a position of the valve spool to adjust a rate of the hydraulic fluid flow supplied to the hydraulic actuator. A pressure sensor is provided for sensing a pressure of the hydraulic fluid provided to the hydraulic actuator. The system also includes an electronic controller configured to receive an operator flow command from an operator interface. The operator flow command corresponds to a base flow through the closed-center valve device. The electronic controller interfaces with the electro-actuator of the closed-center valve device and with the pressure sensor. At least when the sensed pressure is above a threshold pressure, the electronic controller uses the operator flow command and the sensed pressure to generate a pressure-modified flow command that is sent to the closed-center valve device to control flow through the closed-center valve device. The pressure-modified flow command corresponds to a pressure-modified flow through the closed-center valve device. The pressure-modified flow is less than the base flow through the closed-center valve device.
