A property calculation section of the controller calculates a horizontal distance between a boom proximal end portion and an arm distal end portion based on a detection signal input from an attitude detector, calculates a weight of the distal end attachment based on the horizontal distance and a detection signal input from a holding pressure detector in a state where a distal end attachment is disposed at a pressure release position, and calculates a gravity center position of the distal end attachment based on the weight of the distal end attachment, a detection signal input from the holding pressure detector, and a detection signal input from the attitude detector in a state where the distal end attachment is disposed at a displacement position that is a position different from the pressure release position.

Work machine

A work machine includes: a load acquisition section which acquires a load of an object held by an attachment; and an estimative load determination part which determines, based on the load acquired by the load acquisition section, an estimative load of the object estimated to be discharged at a position above a destination in a discharge task when a predetermined estimative load determinative criterion is satisfied. The estimative load determinative criterion includes at least one of a criterion that a boom rising speed at which a boom rises in a rising direction reduces in a holding task, and a criterion that the boom rising speed reduces in a carrying task.

In a work machine, a load information output part outputs a load calculated by a load calculation part as load information before a piston member shifting toward a stroke end reaches a specific position, and a load storage part stores the load calculated by the load calculation part as a specific load when the piston member shifting toward the stroke end reaches the specific position. The load information output part further outputs the specific load as the load information after the piston member shifting toward the stroke end enters a specific region.

A wiper operation system for a construction machine, enabling a plurality of wiper operating modes set for the operation of the wiper device to be easily checked and being capable of preventing erroneous selection of the wiper operating mode, includes a display, an operation reception unit that receives a mode selection operation for selecting one wiper motion mode from among a plurality of wiper motion modes, and a wiper control section that makes the wiper device perform a motion in the selected wiper motion mode. The display includes a wiper motion display unit performing a display of a plurality of icons corresponding to a plurality of wiper action modes respectively, and an identification display enabling the icon of the selected wiper action mode to be identified.

Travelling body for construction machine

Provided is a construction machine including an exhaust-gas after-treatment device and capable of supporting the exhaust-gas after-treatment device in a limited space. The construction machine includes an upper frame, an engine mounted on the upper frame via a plurality of engine mounts, a hydraulic pump coupled to the engine, the exhaust-gas after-treatment device, and a support cradle supporting the exhaust-gas after-treatment device over the hydraulic pump. The upper frame includes a plurality of mount support portions and a leg support portion. The support cradle includes a support stage on which the exhaust-gas after-treatment device is mounted, and a plurality of legs. The plurality of mount support portions include a space-defining mount support portion defining a horizontal space against the hydraulic pump. The plurality of legs include an in-space leg extending in the space. The leg support portion is located to overlap the space in a plan view.

The rear wall portion has a curved portion curved in an approximately arc shape in top plan view to serve as a right or left end thereof. An engine is provided on the upper frame at a position in front of the rear wall portion in such a manner that an interspace is formed between the engine and the curved portion. An exhaust aftertreatment device is provided in front of the rear wall portion while being superposed over the interspace. The exhaust aftertreatment device comprises a first treatment section and a second treatment section. The first treatment section and the second treatment section are supported over the upper frame in a posture where respective longitudinal directions of the first and second treatment sections are oriented parallel to each other in top plan view and along the curved portion in top plan view.

Construction machine

Provided is an upper slewing body allowing elements to be compactly arranged while preventing required length of a hydraulic pipe from increase. The upper slewing body includes an upper frame, an engine, a hydraulic pump coupled thereto, a control valve forward of the engine and rearward of a slewing axis, and a rear tank between the engine and the control valve. The control valve is oblique to a frame lateral direction so as to locate a front end portion thereof forward of an inner end portion thereof. The rear tank has a rear opposition side surface opposed to a rear side surface of the control valve while being oblique to the rear side surface thereto.

Upper slewing body for construction machine

A cab includes a floor plate that constitutes a floor surface of the cab and a frame-shaped lower frame which extends along a peripheral edge of the floor plate and which is fixed onto the floor plate. A swivel joint is arranged below the floor plate such that a part of the swivel joint overlaps with a peripheral edge of the lower frame in plan view. A floor-side projecting portion that projects upward is provided on the peripheral edge of the floor plate and a floor-side housing portion that houses the swivel joint is provided below the floor-side projecting portion. A frame-side projecting portion that projects upward is provided on the lower frame, and a frame-side housing portion that houses the floor-side projecting portion is provided below the frame-side projecting portion.
