A work vehicle includes a steering wheel, a steering cylinder, a steering valve, a feed line, a return line, an electromagnetic valve, and a controller. The steering valve is configured to supply hydraulic fluid to the steering cylinder in response to steering of the steering wheel. The feed line is configured to feed the hydraulic fluid from the steering valve to the steering cylinder. The return line is configured to return the hydraulic fluid from the steering cylinder to the steering valve. The electromagnetic valve is disposed between the feed line and the return line. The controller opens the electromagnetic valve in response to an oil pressure in the feed line.

Provided is a working vehicle capable of increasing lifting operation speed of a working device without increasing cost, even when provided with a circuit configuration that prioritizes a steering operation over a working device operation. A wheel loader 1 comprises a priority valve 451 configured to allow hydraulic oil discharged from a hydraulic pump 41 to flow into a steering drive circuit 43 preferentially over a working device drive circuit 44, and further comprises: an electric steering lever 30; a pair of solenoid control valves 34A, 34B configured to control a steering directional control valve 33; and a controller 5. The controller 5 is configured to control the pair of solenoid control valves 34A, 34B so as to limit operation speed of a steering 3 when determining that an engine 40 is in a low idle state and a lift arm 21 is performing a lifting operation.

A soil processing machine, in particular a soil compactor, includes a hydraulic steering system with at least one steering element actuated with pressurized fluid and an electrohydraulic pressurized fluid source with at least one steering pressurized fluid pump that can be driven by at least one electric motor for feeding pressurized fluid into a steering pressurized fluid circuit.

A work machine, includes steering cylinders that drive a front frame with respect to a rear frame. A directional control valve changes a supply amount of hydraulic fluid to the steering cylinders. A steering wheel operates the directional control valve. A variable capacity pump discharges the hydraulic fluid to the directional control valve. Cylinder stroke sensors are provided for detecting the turning angle of the front frame with respect to the rear frame. A controller reduces the discharge flow rate of the variable capacity pump on the basis of the detection values of the cylinder stroke sensors.

A work vehicle includes a hydraulic actuator that changes an actual steering angle, an actual steering angle detecting part, an operating unit that performs a steering operation, a relative angle detecting part, a steering control part, and a position adjustment control part. The operating unit includes an operating part, a support part, a rotating part, a biasing part biasing the operating part to a predetermined position with respect to the rotating part, and a position adjusting part that adjusts the rotating part. The relative angle detecting part detects a relative rotation angle of the operating part with respect to the rotating part. The steering control part controls the hydraulic actuator based on a rotation operation of the operating part. The position adjustment control part sets a torque based on the relative rotation angle and uses the torque to control the position adjusting part based on the actual steering angle.
