Abstract

Provided is a construction machine with which it is possible to shorten a duct for an air conditioning device disposed in a driver's cab, and to secure space for disposing a hydraulic hose, a control valve and the like under the floor of the driver's cab. A hydraulic excavator is provided with a cabin covering an maneuvering unit, a turning frame on which the cabin is mounted, and an air conditioning device for air conditioning the inside of the cabin, wherein: the turning frame includes a cabin installation portion in which the cabin 6 is installed; the cabin installation portion 7 a includes a box-shaped right frame having a first opening portion and a second opening portion that communicate with one another; and an air conditioned air discharge opening of the air conditioning device communicates with the first opening portion.

Claims (43)

1. A construction machine comprising:

a cabin covering a maneuvering unit,

a frame on which the cabin is mounted, and

an air conditioning device configured to air condition an interior of the cabin,

wherein:

the frame includes a cabin installation portion on which the cabin is installed,

the cabin installation portion includes a box-shaped structure including a first opening portion and a second opening portion that communicate with each other,

an air-conditioned air outlet of the air conditioning device communicates to the first opening portion or the second opening portion, and

the air conditioning device is disposed inside the cabin.

2. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the first opening portion and the second opening portion are open toward the cabin, and a floor portion of the cabin includes a third opening portion facing the first opening portion and a fourth opening portion facing the second opening portion.

3. The construction machine according to claim 2 , wherein the cabin includes a first duct extending from the air-conditioned air outlet of the air conditioning device and connected to the first opening portion through the third opening portion, and a second duct extending from the second opening portion and reaching an air-conditioned air blowoff port through the fourth opening portion.

4. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the first opening portion and the second opening portion are open toward the cabin.

5. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein a floor portion of the cabin includes a third opening portion facing the first opening portion and a fourth opening portion facing the second opening portion.

6. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the box-shaped structure is formed of a duct for the air conditioning device.

7. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein a perimeter of the cabin is disposed on an upper surface of the cabin installation portion of the frame.

8. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein the cabin installation portion of the frame includes a front frame member, a rear frame member, a left frame member, and a right frame member.

9. The construction machine according to claim 8 , wherein the right frame member includes the box-shaped structure.

10. The construction machine according to claim 8 , wherein the front frame member, the rear frame member, the left frame member, and the right frame member define a rectangular shape in a plan view.

11. The construction machine according to claim 1 , further comprising one or more mount attachment portions.

12. The construction machine according to claim 11 , wherein the cabin is coupled to the cabin installation portion by the one or more mount attachment portions.

13. The construction machine according to claim 1 , wherein an entirety of the box-shaped structure is positioned lower than the air conditioning device.

14. A construction machine comprising:

a cabin covering a maneuvering unit,

a frame on which the cabin is mounted, and

an air conditioning device configured to air condition an interior of the cabin,

wherein:

the frame includes a cabin installation portion on which the cabin is installed,
