Abstract

A construction machine according to the disclosure comprises a primary drive configured to generate waste heat and one or a plurality of machine components, the machine components being arranged in the area of the primary drive of the construction machine. At least one of the machine components is arranged in a housing including at least one flow passage through which ambient air is sucked using underpressure or which can have ambient air supplied thereto using overpressure so that an air current is created.
