  • Publication number: 20100266458
    Abstract: Provided is a construction machine, which can suppress a rise in the temperature of a liquid reducing agent in a liquid reducing agent tank. The construction machine is provided, within an engine compartment 6, with plural heat exchangers including an oil cooler 27, a cooling fan 32 arranged opposite these heat exchangers to produce a cooling airflow for promoting heat dissipation from these heat exchanger, and a liquid reducing agent tank 40 for storing a liquid reducing agent to be supplied to an NOx reduction catalyst. The liquid reducing agent tank 40 is arranged upstream of the plural heat exchangers as viewed in a flowing direction of the cooling airflow.

  • Patent number: 6922925
    Abstract: A construction machine of the present invention is provided, in a compartment formed by a cover, with an engine, a centrifugal fan, and a heat exchanger for exchanging heat between cooling air blown by the centrifugal fan and a specified medium, wherein the centrifugal fan and the heat exchanger are arranged further upstream than the engine with respect to flow of cooling air, so that cooling air sucked in by the centrifugal fan is led to the engine after passing through the heat exchanger.

  • Patent number: 6116872
    Abstract: A ripple reducing device of the present invention for reducing ripple of oil flowing through a hydraulic line includes a closed line that diverges from the hydraulic line and is closed at a terminal end thereof, and at least one restrictor that divided the interior of the closed line into a plurality of sections, between a branch point at which the closed line diverges from the hydraulic line, and the terminal end of the closed line.
