Provided is a wheel loader capable of exhibiting sufficient excavation performance while suppressing slip during excavation. A control device provided on a wheel loader according to the present invention is configured to determine a reduction value (Δf′) of traveling drive force based on first vehicle body acceleration (av1) of a vehicle body calculated from acceleration detected by an acceleration sensor, second vehicle body acceleration (av2) of the vehicle body calculated from rotational speed of wheels detected by a rotational speed sensor, and thrust (ph) of a hydraulic cylinder detected by a thrust sensor, and reduce the traveling drive force based on the reduction value and output the reduced traveling drive force.

A hydraulic system for a machine includes an implement pump, a valve, and an implement valve subsystem. The implement pump includes a load sensing control, and the valve controls the flow of hydraulic fluid to the implement pump. The implement valve subsystem includes one or more implement control subsystems to control movement of an implement. The valve is an electrohydraulic proportional relief valve and includes a solenoid configured to adjust the pressure of hydraulic fluid delivered to the implement pump proportionally to a current delivered through the solenoid.

A method for monitoring a machine operating at a worksite, is provided. The machine includes an implement for performing one or more implement operations and is configured to be propelled by a set of ground engaging members between a first location and second location. A first input indicative of start of a travelling operation of the machine after completion of a first implement operation at the first location, is received. One or more transmission parameters associated with the machine are determined, when the machine moves from first location to second location. A second input indicative of end of the travelling operation at start of a second implement operation at the second location is received. A number of revolutions completed by ground engaging members between the first location and the second location is determined based on the transmission parameters. The number of revolutions is displayed on input/output device associated with machine.

A hydraulic system for controlling an implement on a work machine may include a hydraulic reservoir, a hydraulic pump in fluid communication with the reservoir, a central valve in fluid communication with the pump and configured for controlling the implement, a load sense pressure relief system, and a controller. The controller may be configured for controlling the central valve and the load sense pressure relief system and selecting between operating the hydraulic system at a first pressure and a second pressure based on a factor relating to implement position.

An operator seat is arranged in a cab. An air-conditioning unit is arranged in front of the operator seat. A lower window through which the outside can be seen from the inside of the cab is arranged in front of the operator seat and laterally to the air-conditioning unit.

A wheel loader includes: an operating state detecting unit detecting an operating state; a target setting unit setting a relationship between a target position of a working equipment and a travel distance of the wheel loader for the operating state detected by the operating state detecting unit; a travel distance detecting unit detecting the travel distance of the wheel loader; and a working equipment controlling unit moving a boom and a bucket to the target position of the working equipment determined depending on the travel distance detected by the travel distance detecting unit.

A hydraulic fluid tank arrangement for a working machine is provided, the arrangement including a hydraulic fluid tank; an inlet portion for receiving hydraulic fluid into the hydraulic fluid tank; and an oil filter arranged in fluid communication with the inlet portion; wherein the hydraulic fluid tank arrangement further includes a gas removal device arranged in fluid communication with the oil filter downstream the inlet portion and upstream the oil filter for removing gas from the hydraulic fluid before the hydraulic fluid reaches the oil filter. A method for removing gas from hydraulic fluid contained in a hydraulic fluid tank arrangement is also provided.

A method for controlling loading material to a bucket of a work machine from a stack of material is disclosed. The method includes the steps: of selecting a control profile to be used as a basic control profile including indications for positions of at least one of the bucket and the boom of the work machine as a function of a distance traveled by the work machine with reference to a reference location; obtaining information of a distance traveled by the work machine while loading material to the bucket; examining at least one condition regarding the work machine during loading; and determining, on the basis of the examined condition, whether another position than indicated by the selected control profile is to be used for at least one of the bucket and the boom.

The motor cooling system circulates cooling oil for cooling a motor. A transmission is configured to change a rotation speed ratio of an output shaft with respect to an input shaft by changing a rotation speed of the motor. A transmission case has an output shaft case for housing the output shaft. The output shaft case is positioned forward of the motor and protrudes to a position below the motor. The motor cooling system has a cooling oil tank for storing the cooling oil and a cooling oil pipe which connects a cooling oil tank and the motor. The cooling oil tank is positioned behind the output shaft case and under the motor.

A power transmission includes first and second clutches for switching a transmission path for a driving force. A work vehicle includes a clutch controlling unit and an engine controlling unit. The clutch controlling unit is configured to determine which of first and second modes the transmission path is switched into based on which of a range of greater than or equal to a mode switching threshold and a range of less than or equal to the mode switching threshold a speed ratio parameter falls into, and is configured to output a clutch command signal causing one of the first and second clutches to be engaged corresponding to the determined mode. The engine controlling unit is configured to apply an offset to a rotational speed of an input shaft such that after switching into the determined mode, the speed ratio parameter deviates from the mode switching threshold in the switched mode.
