Abstract: A lubricating liquid separator which can damp compressor pulsation noise effectively and improve the lubricating liquid separating performance without greatly enlarging the size of the separator itself. A demister having a sound absorbing performance is disposed on an outer periphery of a partition plate. Compressed gas which enters the interior of a housing through a compressed gas inlet port flows as rotating flow in a flow path between the partition plate and a portion of a side wall of the housing opposed to the partition plate. Pressure pulsation of the compressed gas is diminished by the demister, and a compressor pulsation noise by the rotating flow of the compressed gas is diminished by the sound absorption of the demister. Further, with the demister, reflection of the compressed gas at a wall surface of the partition plate is suppressed, and scattering of lubricating liquid separated from the compressed gas is suppressed.

Abstract: To improve soundproof performance on an air intake side of a cooling structure of a construction machine without enlarging an air intake chamber. An air intake chamber is provided on the air intake side of a heat exchanger in an engine room, and a first air intake port is formed in a top face of the air intake chamber. In the air intake chamber, a duct independently formed as a shield member is disposed so as to partition the air intake chamber into two chambers, and also such that the core surface of the heat exchanger is enclosed airtightly from the surrounding atmosphere. A second air intake port is formed in the duct; thereby, the air intake chamber is constituted in a doubled duct structure, and air sucked from the first air intake port is guided through an air intake passage to the core surface of the heat exchanger, the air intake passage being bent so as to be roughly L-shaped.

Abstract: A lubricating liquid separator is disclosed which can damp a compressor pulsation noise effectively and improve the lubricating liquid separating performance without greatly enlarging the size of the separator itself. A demister (6) having a sound absorbing performance is disposed on an outer periphery side of a partition plate (5). Compressed gas which enters the interior of a housing (2) through a compressed gas inlet port (3) flows as rotating flow in a flow path (10) formed between the partition plate (5) and a portion of a side wall of the housing (2) opposed to the partition plate (5). Pressure pulsation of the compressed gas is diminished by the demister (6), and a compressor pulsation noise induced by the rotating flow of the compressed gas is diminished by the sound absorbing performance of the demister (6).

Abstract: Engine noise of a construction machine is effectively reduced without reducing cooling performance and with an increase in the height of a body cover kept minimum. To achieve the above, an air-intake opening portion (10) and an air discharge opening portion (11) are arranged in a body cover (8) of an upper rotating body (1), and a cooling fan (5) in an engine room covered by the body cover (8) is driven, taking cooling air in from the air-intake opening portion (10) to cool a heat exchanger (7) in the body cover (8) and discharging the air from the air discharge opening portion (11). The air-intake opening portion (10) is laterally offset from a position facing to a ventilation surface of the heat exchanger (7). Alternatively, plural air-intake opening portions are located in a scattered manner such that the plural air-intake opening portions include the offset air-intake opening portion offset from the ventilation surface of the heat exchanger (7).

Abstract: Problem: To improve a soundproof performance on an air intake side of a cooling structure of a construction machine without enlarging an air intake chamber. Solution: An air intake chamber (16) is provided on the air intake side of a heat exchanger (15) in an engine room (12), and a first air intake port (17) is formed in a top face of the air intake chamber (16). In the air intake chamber (16), a duct (18) independently formed as a shield member is disposed so as to partition the air intake chamber (16) into two chambers (16a), (16b), and also in a manner such that the core surface (15a) of the heat exchanger (15) is enclosed airtightly from the surrounding atmosphere.

Abstract: An engine, a cooling fan and a heat exchanger are disposed within an engine room covered with a cover member, while an intake chamber is formed on an intake side of the heat exchanger. A first intake port is formed in an upper chamber wall of the intake chamber and a duct is disposed on a front face side of a heat exchanger core surface in the intake chamber. In a cooling structure of a construction machine which premises the above construction, a front face portion of the duct is inclined in a direction in which the sectional area of an intake passage formed between the duct front face portion and a side face portion of the cover member becomes maximum at the upper portion and decreases gradually toward the lower portion, and a second intake port is formed in a lower half of the front face portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a silencer easily cleanable inside. This silencer comprises a casing cylinder and a segment member housed in the casing cylinder to constitute a sound reducing means. The silencer further comprises a segment member fastening means for fastening the segment member to the casing cylinder, a gas inlet-side lid plate with a punched hole, which closes an opening at one end of the casing cylinder, and a gas outlet-side lid plate with a punched hole, which closes an opening at the other end of the casing cylinder. At least either one of the gas inlet-side lid plate or the gas outlet-side lid plate is adapted to be detachable from the casing cylinder.

Abstract: A construction machine includes an engine guard, an engine, a cooling fan, and a device for being cooled by the cooling fan, and an exhaust duct. The engine guard accommodates the engine and has intake and exhaust openings. The intake opening and the exhaust opening are disposed in different side covers. The side covers correspond to the left and right side walls of the engine guard. The engine, the cooling fan, and the device are accommodated in the engine guard. The exhaust duct is disposed above and behind the engine, parallel with the flow of a fan air which has been used for cooling the engine, and substantially horizontally. The exhaust duct has an exit connected to the exhaust opening. The fan air introduced from the intake opening flows substantially linearly along the cooling fan, the engine, and the exhaust duct and is discharged from the exhaust opening.
