Abstract: An autonomous traveling vehicle, equipped with autonomous traveling function on a standard machine, has a high-pressure selector valve placed on a flow path in which pressure-oil is supplied from a standard brake valve (SBV) installed in the standard machine to a hydraulic brake. A flow path is installed to connect the high-pressure selector valve and an autonomous brake control valve (ABCV) that is supplied with pressure-oil delivered by a hydraulic pump. Further, an autonomous traveling controller is installed to perform control for autonomous travel, and an autonomous brake controller is installed to perform open or close control on the ABCV in response to a braking instruction from the autonomous traveling controller. When the brake pedal is stepped on, the pressure-oil flows from the SBV to the hydraulic brake, and when the autonomous traveling controller outputs a stop instruction, the pressure-oil flows from the ABCV to the hydraulic brake.

Further, by enclosing the first housing in a metal second housing in a manner such that the first housing and the second housing do not come into contact with each other, and grounding the second housing by connecting the second housing to an engine block, radiation noise generated by the capacitive component between the coupling circuit and the first housing is shielded by the second housing. As a result, the influence of this noise on peripheral devices of the high frequency discharge ignition device can be suppressed.
