Rotary type construction machine and cab, equipment housing cover and counterweight for such construction machine

A rotary type construction machine having a self-propelled base carrier, a rotary body rotatably mounted on said base carrier, an internal combustion engine mounted on said rotary body and being housed in an equipment housing cover and having an exhaust pipe projected above said equipment housing cover, a cab provided on said rotary body and defining an operating room, and a working mechanism mounted on said rotary body for lift-up and lift-down motions, said rotary type construction machine comprising:

• an under coat formed on outer surfaces of said cab by coating a paint thereon;
• and
• a hydrophilic film coating formed on said under coat of said cab by coating a hydrophilic paint thereon which covers an entire surface of said under coat, said hydrophilic film coating forming a water film on said outer surfaces of said cab so as to enable oily contaminant substances from said internal combustion engine and said working mechanism deposited on said outer surfaces to flow down along said water film at least in response to rainfall.

A rotary type construction machine having a self-propelled base carrier, a rotary body rotatably mounted on said base carrier, an internal combustion engine mounted on said rotary body and being housed in an equipment housing cover and having an exhaust pipe projected above said equipment housing cover, and a working mechanism mounted on said rotary body for lift-up and lift-down motions, said rotary type construction machine comprising:

• an under coat formed on outer surfaces of said equipment housing cover by coating a paint thereon;
• and
• a hydrophilic film coating formed on said under coat of said equipment housing cover by coating a hydrophilic paint thereon which covers an entire surface of said under coat, said hydrophilic film coating forming a water film on said outer surfaces of said equipment housing cover so as to enable oily contaminant substances from said internal combustion engine and said working mechanism deposited on said outer surfaces to flow down along said water film at least in response to rainfall.

A rotary type construction machine having a self-propelled base carrier, a rotary body rotatably mounted on said base carrier, an internal combustion engine mounted on said rotary body and being housed in an equipment housing cover and having an exhaust pipe projected above said equipment housing cover, a working mechanism mounted on said rotary body for lift-up and lift-down motions, and a counter-weight provided on a rear side of said rotary body, said rotary type construction machine comprising:

• an under coat formed on outer surfaces of said counterweight by coating a paint thereon;
• and
• a hydrophilic film coating formed on said under coat of said counterweight by coating a hydrophilic paint thereon which covers an entire surface of said under coat, said hydrophilic film coating forming a water film on said outer surfaces of said counterweight so as to enable oily contaminant substances from said internal combustion engine and said working mechanism deposited on said outer surfaces to flow down along said water film at least in response to rainfall.

A cab mounted on a rotary frame of a rotary type construction machine and formed in a cab cover structure having front and rear plates, right and left side plates and a top plate, said cab comprising:

• an under coat formed at least on outer surfaces of said front and rear plates and said right and left side plates of said cab cover by coating a paint thereon;
• and
• a hydrophilic film coating formed on said under coat of said cab cover by coating a hydrophilic paint thereon which covers an entire surface of said under coat, said hydrophilic film coating forming a water film on said outer surfaces of said cab cover structure so as to enable oily contaminant substances deposited on said outer surfaces to flow down along said water film at least in response to rainfall.

An equipment housing cover for use on a rotary type construction machine, said equipment housing cover being mounted on a rotary frame and formed in a housing structure including at least right and left side plates and a top plate provided between upper ends of said side plates, said equipment housing cover comprising:

• an under coat formed at least on outer surfaces of said right and left side plates by coating a paint thereon;
• and
• a hydrophilic film coating formed on said under coat of said equipment housing cover plates by coating a hydrophilic paint thereon which covers an entire surface of said under coat, said hydrophilic film coating forming a water film on said outer surfaces of said housing structure so as to enable oily contaminant substances deposited on said outer surfaces to flow down along said water film at least in response to rainfall.

A counter-weight for use on a rotary frame of a rotary type construction machine and constituted by a mass having front, rear, top and bottom side surfaces, said counterweight comprising:

• an under coat formed at least on said rear side surface of said counterweight by coating a paint thereon;
• and
• a hydrophilic film coating formed on said under coat of said rear side surface by coating a hydrophilic paint thereon which covers an entire surface of said under coat, said hydrophilic film coating forming a water film on said rear side surface of said counterweight so as to enable oily contaminant substances deposited on said rear side surface to flow down along said water film at least in response to rainfall.
