Abstract

An SCR-quipped rough terrain crane in which a urea water tank is laid out at the optimal position is provided. A rough terrain crane is equipped with an exhaust emission control device that is laterally adjacent to a diesel engine. The exhaust emission control device is provided with a urea water tank and is laid out in a rear portion of at a vehicle body. The urea water tank is disposed on a front side of the exhaust emission control device. The urea water tank is disposed in the vicinity of the left side of the diesel engine when viewed from the rear side of the vehicle.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A rough terrain crane comprising:
a lower carrier having a front axle and a rear axle;
a boom device disposed above the lower carrier; and
a single operating unit that performs driving and a boom operation via a hydraulic actuator,
wherein the lower carrier includes a lower frame, an outrigger provided to be freely attached and detached to an end portion of the lower frame, and an engine that is disposed on an upper side of a rear end portion of the lower carrier, drives the axles, and supplies hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic actuator,
the rough terrain crane further comprising:
a reducing agent tank in which a reducing agent is stored; and
an exhaust emission control device that has a decompression reactor tube and a selective catalyst reduction disposed downstream of the decompression reactor tube,
wherein the exhaust emission control device is mounted to be laterally adjacent to the engine, and
wherein the reducing agent tank is disposed on a front side of the exhaust emission control device and at laterally adjacent to the engine,
wherein the reducing agent tank has a protective frame that surrounds and protects the reducing agent tank, and
wherein the protective frame is mounted adjacent to a connecting portion of the boom device and the lower carrier.

2. The rough terrain crane according to claim 1 , wherein the reducing agent tank is disposed at a position adjacent to the exhaust emission control device.

3. The rough terrain crane according to claim 1 , wherein the reducing agent tank is disposed in a state of being dropped downward from the top surface of the lower carrier and a part of the reducing agent tank is exposed through the top surface.

4. The rough terrain crane according to claim 1 , wherein the protective frame has an insulation member that surrounds the reducing agent tank.

5. The rough terrain crane according to claim 2 , wherein the reducing agent tank is disposed in a state of being dropped downward from the top surface of the lower carrier and a part of the reducing agent tank is exposed through the top surface.

6. The rough terrain crane according to claim 2 , wherein the protective frame has an insulation member that surrounds the reducing agent tank.

7. The rough terrain crane according to claim 3 , wherein the protective frame has an insulation member that surrounds the reducing agent tank.
