Battery electric excavator

A battery powered electric excavator, comprising:

• an undercarriage including left and right crawler tracks;
• a main frame mounted on the undercarriage to be pivotable about a vertical pivot axis relative to the undercarriage, the main frame having a forward end and a rearward end and having a longitudinal axis extending between the forward end and the rearward end;
• an excavator arm extending from the forward end of the main frame;
• an operator's cabin located on the main frame closer to the forward end than to the rearward end, and located to one lateral side of the vertical pivot axis;
• at least one high voltage battery located on the main frame rearward of the vertical pivot axis and rearward of the operator's cabin;
• a primary electric motor operably connected to the at least one high voltage battery, the primary electric motor being a prime mover of the battery powered electric excavator such that the battery powered electric excavator does not include an internal combustion engine as a prime mover;
• at least one main hydraulic pump driven by the primary electric motor;
• a hydraulic reservoir for supplying hydraulic fluid to the main hydraulic pump;
• and
• wherein the primary electric motor, the main hydraulic pump, and the hydraulic reservoir are located on the main frame on an opposite lateral side of the vertical pivot axis from the operator's cabin;
• wherein the hydraulic reservoir is located directly above the main hydraulic pump;
• and
• wherein at least a majority of a footprint of the main hydraulic pump over the main frame overlaps with a footprint of the hydraulic reservoir over the main frame.
