A method of controlling a work machine is a method of controlling the work machine provided with a machine body that moves according to an operation device operation and that is capable of changing an operation pattern which is a correspondence between the operation device operation and the machine body movement. The control method has presenting the operation pattern information, which shows the current operation pattern, at the time of switching from a state in which the machine body fails to move according to the operation device operation to a state in which the machine body moves according to the operation device operation.

A compact utility loader is operated by a standing operator at the rear of a frame. A loader arm assembly comprises a scissors linkage on either side of the frame nesting around the prime mover. Each scissors linkage has an upper loader arm that is pivoted at its rear end to rears ends of a pair of lower loader arms such that the pivot connections to the upper loader arm move upwardly and forwardly relative to the frame during elevation of the loader arm assembly to provide a high lift capability. The frame is self-propelled by a differential drive and steering system that is operated by dual levers. A hand grip extends between and unifies the operation of the levers to permit the operator to more easily move the levers in the ways that are needed to provide either straight motion of the frame or turns of the frame.

A control system for a work vehicle having a work implement includes a first operating lever for the work implement, a first operating member and a controller. The first operating member is provided on the first operating lever. The controller is configured to perform an automatic control of the work implement. The controller is configured to perform a function of the automatic control, which is allocated to the first operating member, in response to operating the first operating member when a performance condition, including that the first operating lever is located in a neutral position thereof, is satisfied.

A controller disables the motion of a steering cylinder brought about by a steering lever when an enabled state is selected via a lever switch and an instruction to start an engine is issued via a main switch.

The construction machine includes: a control valve that switchingly supplies hydraulic fluid from a hydraulic pump to a hydraulic actuator; a control valve drive device that supplies pilot secondary hydraulic fluid to the control valve in accordance with an operation of an operation lever device; a pilot hydraulic pump that supplies pilot primary hydraulic fluid to the control valve drive device; a pressure accumulation device that recovers return hydraulic fluid returned from the hydraulic actuator. The construction machine further includes: a check valve provided in a line between the pilot hydraulic pump and the control valve drive device; a pressure reducing valve that supplied the hydraulic fluid accumulated in the pressure accumulation device; a flow rate reduction device; and a controller that controls the flow rate reduction device in accordance with the pressure in the line between the check valve and the control valve drive device.

A work machine includes an unload lever swingably supported by an operation box, the unload lever being configured to be swung to select whether or not to supply an operation fluid to the hydraulic actuator. The unload lever includes a second guide pin to move in a first guide groove in accordance with the swinging of the unload lever, the second guide pin being positioned on a first end of the first guide groove when the unload lever is positioned to a pushed-down position and positioned on a second end of the first guide groove when the unload lever is positioned to a pulled-up position. The first guide groove includes a first latch portion to latch the second guide pin at the first end of the first guide groove, and a second latch portion to latch the second guide pin at the second end of the first guide groove.

A working machine includes a prime mover, a traveling pump driven by power of the prime mover to deliver hydraulic fluid, a traveling motor rotated by the hydraulic fluid delivered from the traveling pump, an operation valve configured to change a pilot pressure of pilot fluid output therefrom to the traveling pump according to operation of an operation member, an actuation valve to be activated according to a control signal so as to change a primary pressure supplied to the operation valve, a controller to perform setting of the control signal to be output to the actuation valve, and a pressure detection device to detect a secondary pressure output from the operation valve. The controller includes a setting change unit to change, based on the primary pressure and the secondary pressure, the setting of the control signal to be output to the actuation valve.

A method for controlling a machine is provided. The method senses an orientation of a seat of an operator. The method selects a desired mode function with respect to at least one work tool, wherein the at least one work tool is equipped with the machine. Further, the orientation of the seat and the desired mode function is communicated to a processing module. Furthermore, a number of input modules are configured corresponding to predefined patterns to control functions of the at least one work tool and the machine. The predefined patterns define functions of the at least one work tool and the machine corresponding to the orientation of the seat, and the desired mode function.

A control device for an implement system of a machine is provided. The control device is mounted on a support. The control device includes a first gimbal rotatably coupled to the support. The control device also includes a second gimbal rotatably coupled to the first gimbal. The control device further includes a linear actuator having a first end and a second end. The linear actuator is fixed to the second gimbal from the first end. The control device further includes a handle attached to the linear actuator at the second end. The handle is configured to move in conjunction with rotational movements of the first gimbal and the second gimbal, and a linear movement of the linear actuator to control a movement of the implement system.

A remote demolition robot (10) comprising a controller (17), drive means (14), an arm member (11) movably arranged on a tower (10a) rotatably arranged on a body (11b) of the remote demolition robot (10) and a remote control (22) for providing commands, that are interpreted by the controller (17) causing the controller (17) to control the operation of the remote demolition robot (10), wherein the remote control (22) comprises a first joystick (24a) and a second joystick (24b), wherein the remote control (22) is characterized in that each joystick (24) is provided with a thumb control switch (26).
