<Effect>
When the electric hydraulic excavator 200 configured as described above operates, DC power from the battery unit 50 is converted into AC power by the inverter of the controller unit 73 and supplied to the electric motor 72. As a result, the electric motor 72 is rotationally driven, the hydraulic pump 71 is rotated, and the hydraulic oil from the oil tank 32 is discharged. The hydraulic oil discharged from the hydraulic pump 71 is supplied to hydraulic equipment such as a hydraulic cylinder and the swing motor 30 by the hydraulic valve 31, and the electric hydraulic excavator 200 is operated.

The hydraulic oil that has performed work in each hydraulic device is cooled by the oil cooler 62 of the cooling unit 60 and then returned to the oil tank 32. That is, as the cooling fan 61 of the cooling unit 60 rotates, air flows through the oil cooler 62, and at this time, heat is exchanged between the air and the hydraulic oil, thereby cooling the hydraulic oil.

Here, when the electric hydraulic excavator 200 is in operation, it is necessary to cool the air-cooled component 70 that generates heat. In this embodiment, the air-cooled component 70 is cooled by the cooling unit 60 whose main purpose is to cool the hydraulic oil in the oil cooler 62.

That is, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, when the air inside the upper revolving body 220 is exhausted to the outside by the rotation of the cooling fan 61, the interior of the upper revolving body 220 becomes negative pressure, and the exterior panel Air is introduced into the upper revolving body 220 through the gap 90 and the like. As a result, an air flow is formed in the upper revolving body 220 in the width direction from the left side to the right side. By circulating this air along the air cooling component 70, the hydraulic pump 71, the electric motor 72, and the controller can be sequentially cooled. The air that has cooled these devices passes through the oil cooler 62 and is then discharged to the outside of the upper revolving structure 220.

As described above, according to the electric hydraulic excavator 200 of this embodiment, by arranging the air cooling component 70 linearly in the direction of air flow by the cooling fan 61, various devices are cooled as the oil cooler 62 is cooled. can do. Therefore, various devices can be efficiently cooled without providing other fans or water cooling equipment for cooling the various devices.

Here, in conventional electric hydraulic excavators, the battery unit 50 was generally arranged across the front and back of the rear region R of the base plate 20 in the front and back direction. In recent years, as battery modules have become more dense and smaller, it has become possible to make the battery unit 50 more compact. Accordingly, in this embodiment, the battery unit 50 is arranged on the rear side of the rear region R of the base plate 20, and a space is formed on the front side of the rear region R. By arranging the air cooling component 70 made up of various devices in this space, efficient arrangement of the various devices in the rear region R of the base plate 20 is realized.

In particular, the presence of the battery unit 50 protected by a robust casing on the rear side of the various devices constituting the air-cooled component 70 makes it difficult to avoid damage when an unexpected impact is applied to the rear of the upper revolving structure 220, for example. Also, the air cooling component 70 can be protected. That is, by arranging the battery unit 50 so as to cover the various devices constituting the air cooling component 70 from behind, the various devices including electrical equipment and precision devices can be protected, and the durability of these devices is improved. can be done.

Furthermore, by arranging the air cooling component 70 in front of the battery unit 50, there is no need to place various devices for operating the electric hydraulic excavator 200 on the sides of the battery unit 50, that is, on the right and left sides. Therefore, by removing a part of the exterior panel 90 and tilting up the operating space 40 along with the floor panel 41, the air cooling component 70, controller unit 73, electric motor 72, hydraulic pump 71, battery management system, etc. can be viewed from the front and both sides in the width direction. Each device of the unit 51 and battery unit 50 can be accessed. This makes it possible to improve the maintainability of each device.

In addition, since the hydraulic pump 71, electric motor 72, and controller unit 73 are arranged in order from the upstream side of the air flow by the cooling fan 61, the hydraulic pump 71 and electric motor 72, which are particularly hot, are not heated. It is possible to supply air with a low target temperature. This makes it possible to perform efficient cooling as a whole.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the hydraulic pump 71 and the oil cooler 62 do not overlap the battery unit 50 when viewed from the front and rear directions. Therefore, even if the battery unit 50 moves forward from the base plate 20 due to an unexpected impact, the battery unit 50 will not hit the hydraulic pump 71, oil cooler 62, etc. do not have. Therefore, serious failures such as leakage of hydraulic oil can be avoided.

Further, since the air suction port 20a is formed below the electric motor 72, fresh air introduced into the upper revolving structure 220 from the air suction port 20a can be directly supplied to the electric motor 72. can. Thereby, cooling of the electric motor 72, which is the drive source of the electric hydraulic excavator 200, can be accelerated and energy efficiency can be improved.

Further, by providing the battery management system unit 51 above the air cooling component 70, it is possible to effectively utilize space, and the accessibility to the battery management system unit 51 can be improved.

Various devices constituting the air cooling component 70 are provided so as to be sandwiched between the battery unit 50 and the horizontal partition plate 21. That is, the air cooling component 70 is provided along the horizontal partition plate 21 which is a strength member of the rotating frame 10. Therefore, the influence of vibrations, deflections, etc. of the base plate 20 on the equipment constituting the air-cooled component 70 can be minimized. Thereby, the durability of various devices can be further improved.

<Other embodiments>
Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited thereto, and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the technical idea of the invention.

For example, although the cooling unit 60 in the embodiment is provided at the most downstream side of the air flow, it may be provided at the most upstream side of the air flow. A suction type cooling unit 60 may also be used.
Further, the arrangement order in the width direction of the devices constituting the air-cooled component 70 is not limited to the order in the embodiment, but may be in another order.

In the embodiment, the electric hydraulic excavator 200 has been described as an example of an electric construction machine, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the present invention may be applied to electric excavators and other electric construction machines in which the working machine 221 and the like are entirely driven electrically.
