Abstract: In a work vehicle, a pivot axis of an operating lever and a rotary axis of a potentiometer are located on a same axis. An interlocking mechanism includes an input part which inputs power of the operating lever following the operating lever about the pivot axis as a pivot, and an output part which is supported to a rotary operation shaft and outputs power of the input part to the rotary operation shaft. The input part and the output part are operably connected via a connecting pin.

Abstract: A battery unit includes a positive relay switch, a negative relay switch, a first resistor disposed in a third wiring portion extending between a positive external terminal and a negative external terminal, a second resistor serially connected to a portion on more negative side than the first resistor, a third resistor disposed in a second wiring portion and connected in parallel with the negative relay switch, a potential difference detection section capable of detecting a first potential difference which is a potential difference between the portion of the third wiring portion on more negative side than the first resistor and a negative terminal and a failure determination section for determining a failure of the positive relay switch and the negative relay switch respectively, based on the first potential difference.

Abstract: An autonomous travel assistant downloads information on the travel control conditions set by a travel control condition setter, and causes a display to show the information on the travel control conditions. A travel manager, in response to an autonomous travel start instruction from the autonomous travel assistant, instructs an autonomous travel controller to start autonomous travel.

Abstract: A self-driving work vehicle includes: a front wheel unit; a rear wheel unit including a left rear wheel and a right rear wheel; a variable traveling power supply apparatus that supplies rotational drive power to the left rear wheel and the right rear wheel independently; a left operation implement movable along a first path to adjust a rate of the rotational drive power to be supplied to the left rear wheel from the variable traveling power supply apparatus; a right operation implement movable along a second path to adjust a rate of the rotational drive power to be supplied to the right rear wheel from the variable traveling power supply apparatus; a parking brake provided for the variable traveling power supply apparatus; and a controller configured or programmed to cause a parking brake operating module to operate the parking brake.
