Abstract
A hydraulic fluid tank includes a tank main member of a box-shaped member with a return port and a drawing port that are opened therein; and a divider member that is located in an interior of the tank main member and defines a path of fluid flow from the return port to the drawing port. In addition, the divider member is formed so that the fluid flow makes at least one turn in a vertical direction and at least one turn in a width direction.

A hydraulic fluid tank comprising:
- a tank main member of a box-shaped member including a pair of vertical divider plates, and a horizontal divider plate that are located in an interior thereof, the horizontal divider plate vertically dividing a part between said vertical divider plates, wherein
- the interior of the tank main member is divided into a first chamber outside of one of the vertical divider plates, a second chamber of an upper divided part between the vertical divider plates, a third chamber outside of the other of vertical divider plates and a fourth chamber of a lower divided part between the vertical divider plates, wherein
- said first chamber is provided with a return port that is opened therein, and said fourth chamber is provided with a drawing port that is opened therein.
A hydraulic fluid tank comprising:
- a tank main member of a box-shaped member, and a strainer that is located in a lower part of said tank main member in a middle in a width direction, wherein
- an interior of said tank main member is divided by a divider member including a horizontal divider plate that is located above said strainer, and a vertical divider plate that extends downward from one end of said horizontal divider plate, wherein
- said horizontal divider plate is provided with a strainer-passage hole, and said strainer-passage hole is substantially closed by a lid member that is attached to a strainer rod, wherein
- a return port is opened on one side outward of the vertical divider plate in a width direction, and a drawing port is opened under the horizontal divider plate.
