Therefore, the second bonnet 40 permits the opening/closing operation of the opening/closing member 52 at the open position, and restrains the opening/closing operation of the opening/closing member 52 at the closed position. This eliminates the need for a special locking mechanism for locking the opening/closing member 52 in the closed position.
 以上説明した本実施形態に係る建設機械10によれば、前記第1ボンネット30及び前記第2ボンネット40が前記左右方向に互いに間隔をあけて配置されても、当該第1ボンネット30と当該第2ボンネット40との間に前記ボンネットスペーサ50が介在して前記機械室15の中間部分をその上側において覆うことにより、前記第1ボンネット30と前記第2ボンネット40との間のスペースを通じて前記機械室15がその上方の外部に露出することが防がれる。このことは、例えば前記第1及び第2ボンネット30,40が既存の建設機械のボンネットであって当該第1及び第2にボンネット30,40が共通部品として活用される場合において、前記機械室15が前記幅方向に拡張された場合であっても、その拡張分を前記ボンネットスペーサ50によって覆うことが可能である。 According to the construction machine 10 according to the present embodiment described above, even if the first bonnet 30 and the second bonnet 40 are arranged with an interval in the left-right direction, the first bonnet 30 and the second bonnet 40 can be By interposing the bonnet spacer 50 between the bonnet 40 and covering the intermediate portion of the machine room 15 on the upper side, the machine room 15 can be seen through the space between the first bonnet 30 and the second bonnet 40 . is prevented from being exposed to the outside above it. For example, when the first and second bonnets 30 and 40 are bonnets of existing construction machines and the first and second bonnets 30 and 40 are utilized as common parts, the machine room 15 is expanded in the width direction, the expanded portion can be covered by the bonnet spacer 50 .
 さらに、前記ボンネットスペーサ50は、前記前側及び後側フレーム部材62c,62dの剛性を高めるための前記梁部材70と上下方向に重なるように配置されることにより、前記前側及び後側フレーム部材62c,62dを補強するための梁部材70を有効に利用して前記ボンネットスペーサ50の変形が抑制されることを可能にする。具体的に、前記前側及び後側フレーム部材62c,62dの捩じり変形は、当該前側及び後側フレーム部材62c,62dに(この実施の形態では前記梁部材70を介して)連結されている前記ボンネットスペーサ50に作用する荷重を発生させるが、前記梁部材70は、前記ボンネットスペーサ50と上下方向に重なる位置で前記前側及び後側フレーム部材62c,62dの捩じり変形を抑制することにより、当該捩じり変形に起因して前記ボンネットスペーサ50に作用する前記荷重も有効に抑制することが可能である。このことは、前記ボンネットスペーサ50に要求される強度を低くしてその形状の自由度(特に前記幅寸法の自由度)を高めることを可能にする。 Further, the bonnet spacer 50 is arranged so as to vertically overlap the beam member 70 for increasing the rigidity of the front and rear frame members 62c, 62d, thereby providing It is possible to suppress the deformation of the bonnet spacer 50 by effectively using the beam member 70 for reinforcing the spacer 62d. Specifically, the torsional deformation of the front and rear frame members 62c, 62d is connected to the front and rear frame members 62c, 62d (via the beam members 70 in this embodiment). Although the load acting on the bonnet spacer 50 is generated, the beam member 70 suppresses the torsional deformation of the front and rear frame members 62c and 62d at positions overlapping the bonnet spacer 50 in the vertical direction. , the load acting on the bonnet spacer 50 due to the torsional deformation can also be effectively suppressed. This makes it possible to reduce the strength required of the bonnet spacer 50 and increase the degree of freedom of its shape (especially the degree of freedom of the width dimension).
