Abstract: It is designed that an oil pressure signal can be output by operating an operation lever in a twisting direction; a structure can be made simple and its assembly and adjustment are easy; an operation force can be reduced; and a layout is not restricted. It is also designed that when the operation lever is left free after it is twisted, it returns smoothly to the original neutral position. When the operation lever is twisted about the lever axis, the shaft supported by bearings is twisted. The twist of the shaft is converted into the movement in a direction to move the pistons by first and second levers, and the pistons are moved. When the pistons are moved, the oil pressure signal is output from the discharge ports. A disk plate is separated into a first disk plate to which the root of the operation lever is attached and a second disk plate which is tiltably supported by a tilting fulcrum.

Abstract: A vehicle advances forward while turning to the right when an operating lever is tilted forward and to the right, that is, being operated in a direction intermediate between the forward direction and right-hand direction. Only an output signal of the component corresponding to the forward direction is preserved when the operating lever is released. The component corresponding to the right-hand direction returns to the neutral position, and the signal output is brought to zero. The vehicle therefore moves only forward. The operating position can thus be preserved and a signal output state can be held for a single directional component selected from longitudinal and transverse direction components when operating the operating lever device which is tilted along the directional components in both longitudinal and transverse directions.

Abstract: The present invention has an object to enable to supply a discharged pressurized fluid of a hydraulic pump without any energy loss with an arbitrary flow rate distribution ratio to a plurality of actuators. A discharged pressurized fluid of the hydraulic pump 11 is supplied to the first and second actuators 15 and 16 via the first and second variable displacement type hydraulic pump/motors 13 and 14. The first variable displacement type hydraulic pump/motor 13 and the second variable displacement type hydraulic pump/motor 14 are mechanically connected to rotate at the same revolution speed. By this, the pressurized fluid is supplied to the first and second actuators 15 and 16 depending upon displacements of the first and second variable displacement type hydraulic pump/motors.

Abstract: A pressurized hydraulic fluid supply apparatus capable of merging or separating a plurality of hydraulic pump lines according to the driving states of a plurality of actuators. The pressurized hydraulic fluid supply apparatus has a merge/separation valve 40 that merges or separates the hydraulic fluids delivered under pressure by the first hydraulic pump 1 and the second hydraulic pump 11. The merge/separation valve 40 is set to a flow separation state upon driving of the second hydraulic actuator 16 and is preferentially shifted to a flow merging state when the third hydraulic actuator 21 is driven. Hence, even when a manually driven operation valve is used, the merge/separation valve 40 is automatically switched between the flow separation state and the flow merging state according to the operation of the operation valve. This apparatus prevents an unintended flow rate difference between the first and second actuators from being produced upon driving of the third actuator.
