  • Patent number: 7131686
    Abstract: An operator protective structure equipped on a cabin of construction machine is capable of moving the cabin along with a front guard by directly installing the front guard on the cabin fixed to an upper frame to protect the operator from an object penetrating into the front of the cabin. The cabin is provided with a bottom plate on a bottom thereof, mounted on an upper frame installed on a lower driving body and independently vibrated relative to the upper frame by connecting the bottom plate to the upper frame through vibration absorbing devices. The operator protective structure includes a front guide provided with a top bar and a bottom bar and installed up and down in front of the cabin to protect the cabin from objects penetrating into a front of the cabin and a top guide formed long on a ceiling of the cabin in a front and rear direction to protect the cabin from falling objects.

  • Patent number: 5096253
    Abstract: A cab of a heavy construction vehicle comprising an arc-shaped front wall, an arc-shaped movable front window and arc-shaped guide rails, all of which have substantially the same radius of curvature. During the movement of the front window between its full opening position and full closing position, the movement trace of the front window is present substantially near and along the front wall of the cab so that inner space of the cab may not reduced upon opening and closing of the front window. As a result, there is no danger that the operator may injured by the moving front window. It is also possible to lock the front window at an optionally desired position between its full opening position and full closing position. The cab also comprises a locking device including a plurality of engaging members each provided with a cam surface and an engaging surface and a lock bolt adapted to be slidably contactable with a required engaging member and engagable with the engaging surface of the engaging member.
