PURPOSE: To eliminate the mounting error of each panel and to facilitate an assembling work by forming an armor panel such that a coupling means is located to a joint portion between a plurality of panels for coupling, and mounting the panels to the upper and lower parts of an internal frame through respective mounting parts.
CONSTITUTION: In a minishovel car, an armor panel 11 mounted on the upper part of a main frame 2 and a transmission case 3 comprises a front lower panel 12, a front panel 13, an upper surface panel 14, a rear surface panel 15, a joint middle panel 16, a rear lower panel 17, and side panels 18 to shield sides on both sides. Internal frames 19 disposed on both sides of the upper part of the main frame 2 and the transmission case 3 is formed such that a front frame 20, an upper frame 21, and a rear frame 22 are intercoupled, in order named. In the armor panel 11, coupling stays 29-33 are located to respective joining portions between the adjoining panels 12-17, and coupled to the internal frame 19 through brackets 28, 38, and 43.
