A construction machine includes a centrifugal fan, and a bell mouth arranged on the suction side of the centrifugal fan. The centrifugal fan has a rotatable hub, an annular shroud arranged so as to face the hub and having a suction port, and multiple blades provided between the hub and the shroud. An outlet of the bell mouth is arranged on the radially inner side of the suction port of the shroud. Each blade is formed such that: a leading edge has a convex shape protruding toward a suction surface relative to a line segment linking a connection of the leading edge with the hub and a connection of the leading edge with the shroud; and a vertex of the convex shape of the leading edge is positioned on a radially inner side of a wall surface of the outlet of the bell mouth when the suction side of the centrifugal fan is seen in an axis direction.
