Abstract

In order to appropriately illuminate an image-capturing region of a rear camera and a field of view of an operator and to improve workability under a dark environment, a work machine includes: a machine body; a cabin installed on the machine body; an engine installed in a rear portion of the machine body; a hood covering the rear of the engine in a manner such that the hood is openable and closable; a counterweight provided on a lower side of the hood; a rear light which is installed at a rear upper portion of the cabin and which is configured to illuminate a region lying behind the machine body; and a rear camera which is disposed on the hood and which is configured to take an image of the region lying behind the machine body.

1 . A work machine comprising:
 a machine body;   a cabin located on the machine body;   a rear light that is located at a rear upper portion of the cabin and that is configured to illuminate (i) a region lying behind the cabin and above a rear portion of the machine body and (ii) a region lying behind the machine body; and   a rear camera that is located in the rear portion of the machine body and behind the cabin and that is configured to capture an image of the region lying behind the machine body.   
     
     
         2 . The work machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the rear light is installed so as to illuminate a vicinity of the machine body in an image-capturing area of the rear camera. 
     
     
         3 . The work machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the rear camera is installed such that a rear end part of the machine body is included in an image-capturing area of the rear camera. 
     
     
         4 . The work machine according to  claim 1 , wherein the rear light is installed at a center of the cabin in a left-and-right direction thereof. 
     
     
         5 . The work machine according to  claim 1 , wherein, when seen in a side view, an angle between a line extending vertically downward from the rear light and a line passing through the rear light and the rear camera is not more than 45°. 
     
     
         6 . The work machine according to  claim 2 , wherein, when seen in a side view, a separation distance between an extended line extending from a line passing through the rear light and the rear camera and a rear end part of the machine body is not more than 50 cm. 
     
     
         7 . The work machine according to  claim 1 , comprising:
 a hood being provided in the rear portion of the machine body and covering a part on a side rearward of the cabin in a manner such that the hood is openable and closable; and   a counterweight located on a lower side of the hood, the rear camera being disposed on the hood.
