SELF-CONTAINED INTELLIGENT BRAKING SUBSYSTEM
A control system includes one or more processing circuits comprising one or more memory devices coupled to one or more processors. The one or more memory devices are configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to acquire speed data regarding current speeds of tractive elements of the vehicle from tractive element speed sensors of the vehicle, determine speed references for the tractive elements to perform autonomous driving operations where the speed references indicate speeds at which each of the tractive elements should rotate to accommodate the autonomous driving operations, and control at least one of a driveline or a brake system of the vehicle to selectively alter the current speeds of the tractive elements of the vehicle based on the current speeds and the speed references to accommodate the autonomous driving operations.
VEHICLE CONTROL BY A REMOTE OPERATOR
A vehicle is operable in a first mode in which vehicle actions are controlled in response to inputs received by an input device carried by the vehicle from an operator while being boarded on the vehicle and in a second mode in which vehicle actions are controlled in response to inputs received from the operator while the operator is proximate the vehicle, but no longer boarded on the vehicle. The vehicle carries a sensor configured to output a sensed input, as sensed by the sensor, from the operator proximate the vehicle, but not boarded on the vehicle. The sensed input is recognized and associated with a vehicle action and control signals are output to the vehicle based on the sensed input to cause the vehicle to carry out the vehicle action.
WORK VEHICLE AXLE DEVICE
Work vehicle axle device includes a wheel drive case utilizing a centrally disposed vertically extending first coupling portion, a centrally disposed vertically extending second coupling portion spaced from the first coupling portion and an input shaft located below an upper end of either the first or second coupling portions and being configured to transmit rotational power to wheels. The first and second coupling portions are configured to pivotally mount to the wheel drive case to a vehicle body of the work vehicle in a manner that allows the wheel drive case to pivot about an axis that, when viewed from above, is at least one of parallel to a front to back direction of the vehicle body and parallel to a centrally disposed front to back axis of the vehicle body.
SHIFT ACTUATOR FOR TRACTOR
A transmission actuator for tractor includes: a motor which provides power; rails which are movable by operating the motor; a rail sensor which detects a neutral state of the rails; a position sensor which detects a movement displacement of the rails; and a rotation sensor which is mounted to the motor to detect the number of revolutions of the motor.
TRACTOR BONNET
In a bonnet of a tractor having an upper cover and a pair of lower covers, the upper cover has a center line formed from a front end point up to a diagonally-rearward midpoint, and the upper cover is provided with two opening parts sandwiching the center line. In addition, the opening parts are disposed so that one side of each follows the center line.
TOWING VEHICLE
A towing vehicle includes a vehicle body, a coupling device, a floor board, and a step. The coupling device is disposed at a rear portion of the vehicle body to connect a towing object to the vehicle body. The floor board is disposed in the vehicle body. The step is disposed in the vehicle body at a position lower than the floor board to form a level difference between the step and the floor board. The step includes an upper surface and a plurality of sides that bounds the upper surface. The plurality of sides includes at a rear portion of the upper surface a rear side that extends rearward and outward from the floor board. The vehicle body includes a rear surface that extends upward from the rear side.

The step is disposed in the vehicle body at a position lower than the floor board to form a level difference between the step and the floor board. The step includes an upper surface and a plurality of sides that bounds the upper surface. The plurality of sides includes at a rear portion of the upper surface a rear side that extends rearward and outward from the floor board. The vehicle body includes a rear surface that extends upward from the rear side.
TOWING VEHICLE
A towing vehicle includes a vehicle body, a coupling device provided in a rear portion of the vehicle body, and an inching control switch located at a position in the rear portion of the vehicle body shifted from a center of the rear portion of the vehicle body in a vehicle width direction. The vehicle body has a mount surface provided adjacent to a rear corner thereof. The mount surface is exposed to the outside and the inching control switch projects from the mount surface to the outside of the vehicle. The mount surface extends at an angle with respect to the vehicle width direction. A part of the mount surface that is closest to the center of the rear portion in the vehicle width direction is located rearward of the other part of the mount surface that is most distant from the center of the rear portion.

Tractor with exhaust gas treatment unit
A tractor according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a front wheel, a rear wheel, a hood that covers an engine, and an exhaust gas treatment unit. The exhaust gas treatment unit is placed laterally outside right or left side of the hood and behind the front wheel, and purifies exhaust gas from the engine. A circular cylindrical heat shielding plate covers an outer circumferential surface of the exhaust gas treatment unit. A plurality of vent holes are formed in a rear surface of the heat shielding plate, and are not formed in a region that lies on a front surface of the heat shielding plate and faces the front wheel.
