  • Publication number: 20230323625
    Abstract: Provided is a work vehicle capable of excavating an excavation object efficiently and in various excavation patterns with appropriate fuel efficiency, regardless of the operator's skill level. The work vehicle includes a controller. The controller executes control including insertion control, acceleration control, and deceleration control. The insertion control keeps the tilt amount (stroke amount S2) of the bucket and increases the lift amount (stroke amount S1) of the lift arm in the insertion period Ph1 from the timing when the work vehicle meets an entry condition for object, where the acceleration ? of the vehicle becomes negative, to the timing when the acceleration ? first becomes positive.

  • Patent number: 10919395
    Abstract: An electric drive dump truck travels by contacting, with trolley lines, power collection units configured to be moved up and down by lifting devices and receiving electrical power from the trolley lines. A position detection device is configured to detect a position of the electric drive dump truck; a vehicle speed detection device is configured to detect a vehicle speed of the electric drive dump truck; and a storage section is configured to store a position of the trolley lines and a time (hereinafter referred to as a moving-up time) until the power collection units contact with the trolley lines since the power collection units start moving up. A control device is configured to output a signal indicating that the power collection units can be moved up based on the position and vehicle speed of the electric drive dump truck, the position of the trolley lines, and the moving-up time.

  • Patent number: 10232775
    Abstract: An electric drive vehicle is provided with first and second slider plates contacting a trolley line on the high-voltage side and on the ground side, respectively. A camera has a photographing range of the whole of the second slider plate held in contact with the trolley line on the ground side and a part of the trolley line residing around the second slider plate. A controller controls a display of a monitor, wherein the controller includes a relative distance calculation section that calculates a relative distance between the trolley line on the ground side and a reference position of the second slider plate, and a bird's eye view image data generation section that generates bird's eye view image data reflecting the relative distance calculated by the relative distance calculation section and that outputs the bird's eye view image data to the monitor.
