    Abstract: A self-propelled earth working machine includes a traveling gear, a machine frame supported by the traveling gear, a power source accommodated on the machine frame for providing power for a travel operation and/or for an earth working operation, a working apparatus accommodated on the machine frame for earth working, and a cooling device for cooling a functional device of the earth working machine. The cooling device includes at least one heat exchanger system for transferring heat from a cooling medium to air, and a ventilator system, which is on the one hand designed and situated to produce a cooling air flow passing the heat exchanger system and which is on the other hand designed and situated to produce in the area of the power source a ventilation air flow flowing away from the power source. The heat exchanger system and a ventilation volume, in which the ventilation air flow flows away from the power source, are situated on the suction side of the ventilator system, the ventilation volume being situated downstream of the heat exchanger system relative to the cooling air flow, so that the ventilation air flow generated by the ventilator system meets the cooling air flow downstream of the heat exchanger system and upstream of the ventilator system.

    Abstract: A cooling device including a housing frame, a heat exchanger, an electrically drivable fan unit, a control unit, and a sensor unit. The housing frame can be disposed on a first surface of the heat exchanger. The fan unit is configured so that, during operation of the fan unit, a first air flow is produced toward the first surface of the heat exchanger. The fan unit is accommodated in a recess of the housing frame. The housing frame has at least one air channel having an air inlet opening and an air outlet opening, the air channel being formed parallel to the first surface of the heat exchanger, allowing a second air flow to pass through the air channel along the first surface. A measured quantity is recorded by the sensor unit, and the fan unit is driven by the control unit as a function of the recorded measured quantity.

    Abstract: A machine includes a frame, a front axle coupled to the frame, a pair of front tractive elements coupled to the front axle, a prime mover coupled to the frame, and a cooling system. The pair of front tractive elements are steerable through a range of motion that defines a tractive element cloud. The cooling system includes a fan and a cooling pack. The fan system is positioned in front of the prime mover and at least partially over the front axle. The cooling pack includes a plurality of heat exchangers. The cooling pack is positioned in front of the fan system such that the cooling pack and the fan system cooperatively define a space therebetween. The pair of front tractive elements are configured to be steered behind the cooling pack and into the space such that the cooling pack is positioned in front of the tractive element cloud.
