Patent number: 11186171Abstract: Provided is an operation mechanism of a work vehicle capable of suppressing transmission of vibration from a vehicle body to a cabin. The operation mechanism of a work vehicle includes: a first link portion which is supported by the vehicle body (a center frame, a transmission, and the like); a second link portion which is supported by a cabin placed on the vehicle body; and a third link portion which has flexibility and connects the first link portion and the second link portion so as to be interlockable.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2020Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: KUBOTA CORPORATIONInventors: Daisuke Miyazaki, Koji Masumoto, Kenzo Ushiro, Hideaki Ezaki

Patent number: 10822067Abstract: A power system of a ship includes a first power storage device, a second power storage device, and a control system. The first power storage device has an energy density higher than that of the second power storage device. The second power storage device has a power density higher than that of the first power storage device. The control system is configured to: as a power generator application, prioritize discharging the first power storage device over discharging the second power storage device, such that base power is continuously supplied to an onboard electrical load connected to an onboard bus; and as a grid stabilization application, prioritize charging/discharging the second power storage device over charging/discharging the first power storage device to compensate for frequency variation or voltage variation of an onboard power grid.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2017Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: KAWASAKI JUKOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Hideaki Ezaki, Masato Hayashi, Masanori Hamamatsu, Soichiro Bando, Kazuma Tokuyama, Tatsuya Ohno, Kazuya Takeda, Yasunori Kujime
