Abstract
Provided is a construction machine including exhaust ducts and favorably discharging air from an engine room through an air outlet. The construction machine includes an engine room with an upper wall portion and a cooling fan, the upper wall portion formed with first and second exhaust ducts. The first exhaust duct includes an upstream portion extending in a first horizontal direction and a downstream portion extending upward from a terminal end of the upstream portion to a first air outlet. The second exhaust duct includes a cross portion crossing the upstream portion in a second horizontal direction perpendicular to the first horizontal direction above the upstream portion. The cross portion allows air to flow from a second air inlet opened downward and sideward of the upstream portion to a second air outlet opposite to the second air inlet, through an upper side of the upstream portion.
