  • Patent number: 11987952
    Abstract: Provided is a construction machine in which a pair of boss parts (17L, 17R) coupled via a boss pipe (18) are welded to a tip end of an arm (7), a coupling pin (16) is rotatably supported in bushes (20L, 20R) of the respective boss parts (17L, 17R), and brackets (8b) of a bucket (8) are coupled to opposite ends of the coupling pin (16). An inner pipe (25) is fitted onto the coupling pin (16) on an inner circumferential side of the boss pipe (18), and defines a grease passage (26) between the coupling pin (16) and the inner pipe (25). Left and right gaps between the boss pipe (18) and the inner pipe (25) are closed with side plates (27L, 27R), and a pair of grease chambers (28L, 28R) communicating with each other via the grease passage (26) are defined. A grease supply pipe (29, 30) has a base end welded to a center of an outer circumferential surface of the inner pipe (25) in an axis (C) direction, and a tip end opened in a left side plate (7L) of the arm (7), so that a nipple (33) is mounted to the tip end.
