Abstract
A reducing agent tank includes a tank body storing reducing agent and a cylindrical gauge member visually indicating a storage amount of the reducing agent inside the tank body. The gauge member is in communication with an inside of the tank body. The tank body has a replenishment port to replenish the reducing agent. The gauge member is provided on a first wall surface of a plurality of wall surfaces defining the tank body. The gauge member is provided in a slanted manner relative to a bottom plate of the tank body. The replenishing port and the gauge member are disposed in a row along a direction that extends along the first wall surface as seen in a plan view.
Claims20
A reducing agent tank comprising:
- a tank body configured to store a reducing agent;
- and
- a cylindrical gauge member configured to visually indicate a storage amount of the reducing agent inside the tank body, the gauge member being in communication with an inside of the tank body,
- the tank body having a replenishment port configured to replenish the reducing agent,
- the gauge member being provided on a first wall surface of a plurality of wall surfaces defining the tank body, and the gauge member being provided in a slanted manner relative to a bottom plate of the tank body, and
- the replenishing port and the gauge member being disposed in a row along a direction that extends along the first wall surface as seen in a plan view, the entire gauge member is disposed closer to the bottom plate than any portion of the replenishing port.
A reducing agent tank comprising:
- a tank body configured to store a reducing agent, the tank body having a replenishment port configured to replenish the reducing agent;
- and
- a cylindrical gauge member configured to visually indicate a storage amount of the reducing agent inside the tank body, the gauge member being in communication with an inside of the tank body, the gauge member being provided on a first wall surface of a plurality of wall surfaces defining the tank body, and the gauge member being provided in a slanted manner relative to a bottom plate of the tank body,
- the replenishing port being positioned at an end part side of the tank body along a width direction of the first wall surface as seen in a plan view, and
- the gauge member being arranged such that a first end of the gauge member is disposed closer to the replenishing port than a second end of the gauge member along the width direction of the first wall surface in the plan view.
A reducing agent tank comprising:
- a tank body configured to store a reducing agent, the tank body having a replenishment port configured to replenish the reducing agent;
- a cylindrical gauge member configured to visually indicate a storage amount of the reducing agent inside the tank body, the gauge member being in communication with an inside of the tank body, the gauge member being provided on a first wall surface of a plurality of wall surfaces defining the tank body such that the gauge member projects in an outward direction from the first wall surface, and the gauge member being provided in a slanted manner relative to a bottom plate of the tank body;
- and
- a guiding tube configured to guide the reducing agent from the replenishing port into the tank body, the guiding tube extending upward from an upper surface of the tank body and extending in the outward direction in which the gauge member projects, the guiding tube and the gauge member extending in intersecting directions in a plan view.
