A cylinder support bracket 27 that supports the base end side of the blade cylinder is provided at the center of the front portion of the center frame main body 24, and blades that support the blades 42 (FIG. 1) are provided on the left and right sides of the cylinder support bracket 27. A support bracket 28 is provided.

The crawler frame 23 is a frame around which the crawler 29 (FIGS. 1 and 4) is wound along the outer periphery, and has a crawler frame body 51 having an inverted U-shaped cross section along the front-rear direction. An idler support portion 52 that is notched to support an idler such as a sprocket is provided at the front portion of the crawler frame main body 51. On the rear end side of the crawler frame main body 51, a motor case 53 in which a traveling hydraulic motor is accommodated is located.

The crawler frame main body 51 and the motor case 53 are connected to each other via a plate-like connecting member 54 that is erected vertically. In the present embodiment, the front end of the front leg 25 is connected to the inner side wall of the crawler frame main body 51, whereas the front end of the rear leg 26 straddles both the side wall of the crawler frame main body 51 and the connecting member 54. Are connected.

[Connecting member]
Hereinafter, a specific shape and the like of the connecting member 54 will be described in detail.
FIG. 3 is a plan view showing a main part of the crawler frame 23.
2 and 3, the connecting member 54 has a connecting surface portion 55 to which the rear leg 26, the crawler frame main body 51, and the motor case 53 are welded.

A hanging tool mounting portion 56 that extends outward in the vehicle width direction is integrally provided on the outer edge of the connecting surface portion 55 in the vehicle width direction. The hanging tool mounting portion 56 may be used for tie-down during transportation of the excavator 1, but in many cases, the entire lifting excavator 1 is hung together with a hanging tool mounting portion on the front side of the vehicle body (not shown). It functions as a part to which a wire for attaching is attached.

On the inner end edge of the connecting surface portion 55 in the vehicle width direction, a first tightening tool attachment portion 57 as an attachment portion according to the present invention extending inward in the vehicle width direction is integrally provided. . The first fastener mounting portion 57 functions exclusively as a portion for attaching a wire or chain as a fastener for tying down the rear side of the hydraulic excavator 1 to a loading platform such as a truck or a trailer when the hydraulic excavator 1 is transported. To do.

Here, on the front side of the crawler frame main body 51, a horizontal plate-like second tightening tool attaching portion 58 extending inward from the inner side wall is provided. The first fastener mounting portion 57 is used for tie-down on the rear side of the vehicle body, and the second fastener mounting portion 58 is used for tie-down on the front side of the vehicle body.

The first first fastener attaching portion 57 at the rear has an attachment hole for attaching the fastener, and the inwardly extending end 57A side faces the rear of the vehicle body with respect to the extending direction E. That is, the entire first fastener mounting portion 57 is provided to be bent toward the rear side of the vehicle body with respect to the connecting surface portion 55. As a result, when the fastener is attached rearward, bending stress is unlikely to occur in the vicinity of the attachment hole having a particularly low bending rigidity in the first fastener attachment portion 57, and the first fastener attachment portion 57 is deformed. Can be prevented. The bending angle θ of the first fastener mounting portion 57 with respect to the extending direction E (the connecting surface portion 55) is not particularly limited, but is 40 ° in plan view in the present embodiment. Such a bending angle θ is not set to 90 ° or more, but is set in a range of about 30 to 60 °.

FIG. 4 is a plan view for explaining the tightening state of the excavator 1.
In FIG. 4, a straight line A extending from the extending end 57 </ b> A of the first fastener mounting portion 57 toward the rear of the vehicle body is inside the crawler 29 (two-dot chain line in the drawing) wound around the crawler frame body 51. Intersect within the interval W. A proximal end of a fastener such as a wire rope or chain (not shown) is attached to the first fastener attachment portion 57 along these straight lines A, and the distal end of the fastener is fixed to a loading base fixing portion such as a truck or a trailer. . As a result, the hydraulic excavator 1 is downed in a cross-hung manner by the tightening tool.

Here, when crossing the tightening tool, since the first tightening tool attaching portion 57 is bent with respect to the extending direction E, the tightening tool is stretched in a cross shape along the bending direction. The external force does not act on the first tightening tool attachment portion 57 in the direction of further bending or returning from the bending angle θ. For this reason, it is difficult for stress to occur in the first tightening tool attaching portion 57, and deformation of the first tightening tool attaching portion 57 can be prevented. Therefore, a structure such as increasing the strength of the first fastener mounting portion 57 is unnecessary, and the structure can be simplified. Further, since the fasteners intersect with each other between the crawlers 29 along the straight line A, there is less fear that the wires and chains after the intersection will rub against the crawler 29.

Further, the intersection position X of the straight lines A is located in the vicinity of the rear end position L in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body. It is not necessary to prepare a truck or trailer with a length longer than necessary to stretch the fastener in a cross shape, and a sufficient distance for arranging the wire block can be secured. Furthermore, when the crossing position X is in the vicinity of the rear end position L, there is less concern that the crossed wire or chain will be rubbed against the crawler 29 during crossing, and tightening can be more reliably performed.

[Effect of the embodiment]
According to the present embodiment described above, there are the following effects.
That is, since the first tie-down first fastener mounting portion 57 extends toward the inner side in the vehicle width direction of the excavator 1, the fixing portion and the first fastener mounting provided on the normal periphery of the cargo bed are provided. The distance between the portions 57 can be increased. For this reason, by disposing a wire block or the like within the large distance, transportation means such as a truck or trailer for a large cargo bed can be eliminated. In addition, as a transportation means, even when a tilt is present along the outer edge of the loading platform, the space between the first fastener mounting portion 57 and the tilt is widened, so that a tie-down operation can be facilitated.

Further, since the first fastener mounting portion 57 is configured as a part of the connecting member 54, the mounting portion is prepared as a dedicated member separate from other members, and this is prepared by welding or the like, so that the crawler frame main body 51 is provided. The structure can be simplified.
