Abstract: A wheel loader includes a console box, a link rod, and a shutoff valve. The console box is disposed on the side of an operator's seat, is able to rotate in the forward and backward direction between an operation position in which the console box is disposed horizontally and a retracted position in which the console box is rotated rearward from the operation position, and has a slot. The link rod is connected at one end to the slot and transmits the rotation of the console box. The link rod is able to rotate a shaft to switch between an open position in which an actuator drive-use hydraulic circuit can be actuated, and a closed position in which the actuator drive-use hydraulic circuit cannot be actuated. A second end of the link rod is linked to the shaft.

Abstract: A fixture is attached to a hollow tube and has a pair of shafts protruding in a width direction. A handle has a base portion and a grip portion located at an end on the outside of the base portion. The base portion has a pair of side portions sandwiching both side surfaces of the fixture. The pair of side portions each have a hole receiving corresponding one of the pair of shafts. A restriction portion of a displacement preventing plate restricts a movement of the side portions in the width direction in a portion of each of the side portions located between an end on the grip portion side of the fixture and an end on the hollow space side of the base portion.

A hole leading to the hollow space of the hollow tube has a first hole portion located at one end of a base portion extending in a longitudinal direction L of the hollow tube and a second hole portion extending from the first hole portion to a portion corresponding to the other end of the base portion in the longitudinal direction L. A dimension W2b of a grip portion of the handle in a width direction W is greater than a dimension W2a of the base portion of the handle in the width direction W and greater than a dimension W1a of the second hole portion in the width direction W.

Abstract: A rotation angle detector for improving the detection accuracy of a rotation angle has a movable shaft, a bearing portion for pivotably bearing against the movable shaft, a detection portion for detecting a rotation angle of the movable shaft, and a supporting portion for supporting the detection portion. The bearing portion and the supporting portion are integrally formed of the same material. As a result, since the bearing portion and the supporting portion are accurately aligned with each other, displacement of the movable shaft with respect to the detection portion can be prevented. Thus, the detection accuracy of the movable shaft rotation angle can be improved.
