  • Patent number: 9458803
    Abstract: Provided is a construction machine including an air cleaner having a cylindrical outer peripheral surface and an air intake pipe, wherein the assembly of the air cleaner and the air intake pipe can have a reduced width size in the front-rear direction. The air intake pipe has a returning portion and a downstream-side portion. The downstream-side portion has a cross section having a shape including a hypotenuse portion inclined toward the air cleaner, arranged in the state where at least a part of the hypotenuse portion is located in a space defined between the cylindrical outer peripheral surface of the air cleaner and an air-cleaner placement surface.

  • Patent number: 9428883
    Abstract: Provided is a construction machine including an air cleaner and allowing the air cleaner to be easily installed with no enlargement of an installed space while surely avoiding the interference with other structure. The construction machine includes: an air cleaner; a pipe connected to an exhaust port of the air cleaner; a seat plate on which the air cleaner and the pipe are mounted to form a subassembly; and a device including an upper surface on which the subassembly is mounted to form a device-assembly. The subassembly is allowed to be displaced between a first position apart from a first structure and a second position close to the first structure and apart from a second structure and to be fixed at each of the positions.
