ABSTRACT:
In a conventional hydraulic excavator, a fixed hood is provided between a cabin and an engine hood. This is for protecting devices from contact with raindrops and obstacles. However, a guard is needed as an extra component, with consequent increase in the number of components and deterioration of productivity. Also in point of appearance, the machine body looks poor because of joint portions. The present invention aims at providing a construction machine wherein a side wall of a cabin is extended backward to constitute a guard portion for covering, at least sideways, such devices as are disposed behind the cabin. The guard portion extends up to a sideways position of the devices. A lower portion of a rear wall of the cabin is recessed toward the inside of the cabin to form a space, allowing the devices to be positioned at least partially within the space.
