WORK SITE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND WORK SITE MANAGEMENT METHOD
A management system includes a course data generation unit that generates course data for each of a plurality of unmanned vehicles such that loading work for the plurality of unmanned vehicles by a loader is sequentially performed on a work site where a plurality of the loaders operates; and a priority determination unit that determine a passage order at an intersection on the work site of the plurality of unmanned vehicles traveling according to the course data so as to reduce a total loading loss indicating a total of loss amounts in operation of each of the plurality of the loaders.
DISASTER COUNTERMEASURE SUPPORT SERVER, DISASTER COUNTERMEASURE SUPPORT SYSTEM, AND DISASTER COUNTERMEASURE SUPPORT METHOD
The possibility of a work machine 40 being affected by a disaster in a second designated area including an existence position of the work machine 40 is predicted based on an amount of rainfall in a first designated area. A hazard map representing a result of the prediction of the possibility of the work machine 40 being affected by a disaster in the second designated area is outputted to a remote output interface 220 in a remote operation apparatus 20 (a client) (or a management output interface 620 in a management client 60). Accordingly, a user can take measures to reduce the possibility of the work machine being affected by a disaster, for example, to communicate with the persons involved in order to move the work machine 40 from a current position.
WORK MACHINE AND REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR WORK MACHINE
A work machine includes: a vehicle body; a first imaging device that is disposed in the vehicle body and images a first imaging range; a second imaging device that is disposed in the vehicle body and images a second imaging range; and a communication device that transmits a first image in the first imaging range and a second image in the second imaging range to a remote place. At least a part of the second imaging range is set below the first imaging range.
OPERATION SUPPORT SERVER, OPERATION SUPPORT SYSTEM, AND OPERATION SUPPORT METHOD
There is provided a technique capable of appropriately controlling a warm-up completion timing of a work machine in view of scheduled use of the work machine. A warm-up period elapsed until a measurement value of an internal state variable satisfies a designated condition, i.e., warm-up is completed since a warm-up operation of a work machine 40 was started is predicted based on a measurement value of an external state variable with an operation of the work machine 40 stopped. The warm-up operation of the work machine 40 is started at a first designated time t1 as an appropriate timing based on the predicted warm-up period such that the measurement value of the internal state variable of the work machine 40 satisfies the designated condition by a second designated time t2.
REMOTE CONTROL FOR A POWER MACHINE
A control system for remotely controlling a power machine is provided. The remote control system can include a hand-held remote control device configured to be in communication with a mobile device. The hand-held remote control device can include a plurality of operator input modules configured for manual actuation. The mobile device can be configured to be operatively connected to the power machine by a wireless communication system. The mobile device can be configured to receive an input from the hand-held remote control device, and output a command signal to a control system on the power machine based on the received input to command one or more functions of the power machine.
EQUIPMENT UTILIZATION MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A work machine includes a chassis, a wheel, an implement, a user interface, and a utilization monitoring system. The wheel is rotatably coupled to the chassis. The implement is movable relative to the chassis. The user interface is configured to receive a user input. The utilization monitoring system includes one or more memory devices configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to obtain one or more values representing an operational range of the implement; receive the user input; determine a value representing a position of the implement; and determine a value representing a utilization of the implement by comparing the position of the implement to the one or more values representing the operational range of the implement.
Control system for work vehicle, method for setting trajectory of work implement, and work vehicle
A control system for the work vehicle includes a display, an input device, and a controller. The controller displays a current position of a work vehicle on a screen of a display. The controller receives a first input signal indicating an input operation by an operator from a input device. The controller determines, as a first position, the position of the work vehicle when the first input signal is received. The controller displays the first position on the screen of the display. The controller receives a second input signal indicating an input operation by an operator from the input device. The controller determines, as the second position, the position of the work vehicle when the second input signal is received. The controller determines a target design surface indicating a target trajectory of a work implement based on reference position information including at least the first position and the second position.
INSPECTION SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION MACHINE
A remote control system 1 having a function as an inspection system includes a plurality of cameras 25, 60 which are located in a location environment of a construction machine 10, a captured image processing unit 50a configured to cause a display unit 45 to display captured images, and a camera selection unit 50b configured to select an inspection camera from the plurality of cameras 25, 60 at a time of inspection of the construction machine 10. The captured image processing unit 50a is configured to receive an image captured by the selected inspection camera to include an image of a portion to be inspected and cause the display unit 45 to display the captured image.
SHOE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A DOZER BLADE ASSEMBLY
A shoe control system for a dozer blade assembly includes a controller having a processor and a memory. The controller is configured to determine a direction of travel of the dozer blade assembly. The controller is also configured to control an actuator to drive a shoe of the dozer blade assembly to disengage a ground surface in response to determining the direction of travel is rearward.
DEMOLITION SYSTEM
A demolition system includes a frame, a plurality of outriggers, a demolition apparatus, and a water reservoir. The frame includes a frame base, a plurality of support members coupled to the frame base, a platform coupled to the plurality of support members, and one or more lifting ears extending from the platform. The plurality of outriggers are coupled to the frame base. The demolition apparatus is coupled to and supported by the frame base. The demolition apparatus includes a main body rotatably coupled to the frame base, an arm extending from the main body between two of the plurality of support members, one or more gripping members coupled to the arm, and a motor configured to selectively rotate the main body relative to the frame base. The water reservoir is coupled to and supported by the platform of the frame. Additionally, the water reservoir provides water to the demolition apparatus.
