Abstract

Provided is a cab for a work machine capable of preventing an actuator from being damaged by vibration. A cab body is formed with a doorway. A door is rotatably supported on the cab body. The door opens and closes the doorway. A closed position locking unit locks the door so as to disable it from rotating relative to the cab body. The actuator generates a driving force to unlock the door locked by the closed position locking unit. The actuator is mounted on the cab body and is supported by the cab body.
