Abstract: A working machine includes an operator's seat, a seat base supporting the operator's seat, and a slide rail for adjustment of a position of the operator's seat, the slide rail being located between the seat base and the operator's seat, in which the seat base includes a rail mount for attachment of the slide rail, the rail mount having a downward convex curve which is curved to deviate from the slide rail with increasing distance from each of opposite ends of the rail mount in a longitudinal direction of the slide rail and with decreasing distance to a center of the rail mount in the longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A power generation element includes a magnetic member that produces a large Barkhausen effect and magnetism collection members including an insertion part having the magnetic member inserted therethrough. The magnetism collection member includes a first component on an opposite side of a boundary plane to a magnetic field generation unit and a second component on the same side of the boundary plane as the magnetic field generation unit, the boundary plane passing through a center of an imaginary circle inscribed in the insertion part and having a diameter equal to a length of the insertion part in a third direction perpendicular to first and second directions, the first direction is a direction of the insertion of the magnetic member, and the second direction is a direction in which the magnetic field generation unit is disposed. A volume of the second component is larger than a volume of the first component.

Abstract: A working machine includes a machine body an operator seat mounted on the machine body, a front working device swingable upward and downward, the front working device being provided forward of the operator seat and on one side in a machine-width direction eccentric with respect to a central portion of the operator seat, and a front guard provided forward of the operator seat. The front guard includes a first frame member provided forward of the operator seat and on the one side, and a second frame member provided forward of the operator seat and on another side opposite to the one side, the first frame member includes a main rod portion defining upper and lower portions of the first frame member, extending between the upper and lower portions of the first frame member, and provided rearward of the front working device, and the main rod portion is formed to be positioned in a machine fore-and-aft direction closer to the operator seat than the second frame member.

Abstract: A working machine includes a machine body, an operator's seat mounted on the machine body, an exterior cover positioned on a side of the operator's seat, and a handrail positioned with the exterior cover on the same side of the operator's seat and attached to the machine body. The exterior cover is fixed to a fixing unit included in the handrail.
