  • Publication number: 20240132168
    Abstract: In a work vehicle, a safety frame includes a base, a pair of left and right lower frames extending from the base and fastened to a pair of left and right rear wheel fenders, and an upper frame having an inverted U shape connecting upper portions of the pair of left and right lower frames. The base is removably fastened to a rear axle case. A length in a width direction between a pair of left and right rear wheels is changed by changing a length in a width direction of the upper frame and changing a fastening position of the base to the rear axle case.

  • Patent number: 11964639
    Abstract: A traveling vehicle includes a mechanical brake link mechanism to transmit operation of a brake pedal to a brake device housed in a case and to control brakes of right and left rear wheels. The brake link mechanism includes a pair of brake rods extending in a front-back direction at sides of the case. A guard assembly includes a pair of guards extending in the front-back direction below the pair of brake rods. The pair of brake rods overlaps the pair of guards in a vertical direction. In a side view of the traveling vehicle, the pair of brake rods includes a higher portion positioned above a lower surface of the case to be distanced by a predetermined interval or more and positioned above the lower surface of the case, and a lower portion positioned below the higher portion. The pair of guards overlaps at least all of the lower portions in the vertical direction.

  • Patent number: 11541788
    Abstract: A seat suspension includes a base including a base hook and a seat platform provided with a seat. A first link couples a first rotational axis of the base and a third rotational axis of the seat platform and is configured to be rotatable about the first rotational axis and the third rotational axis. A second link couples a second rotational axis of the base and a fourth rotational axis of the seat platform and is configured to be rotatable about the second rotational axis and the fourth rotational axis. A link hook is provided on the second link. An elastic member is latched to the base hook and the link hook and is configured to pull the link hook toward the base hook. A first angle between a contracting direction of the elastic member and a rotation direction of the link hook increases as the elastic member expands.
