AIR SUPPLY SYSTEM FOR A WORK VEHICLE
An air supply system for a work vehicle includes a compressor configured to compress a first supply of ambient air and to output a compressed air supply via a compressed air line, an air induction assembly configured to receive the compressed air supply from the compressed air line and to flow the compressed air supply through a body of the air induction assembly to create a low pressure region sufficient to draw in a second supply of ambient air, wherein the body is configured to combine the second supply of ambient air with the compressed air supply to generate a combination air supply, and a tire inflation system fluidly coupled to the air induction assembly and configured to selectively increase and decrease an air pressure within a tire of the work vehicle.

Air Treatment Unit for a Brake System of a Utility Vehicle, Brake System and Method for Operating an Air Treatment Unit
An air treatment unit for a brake system of a utility vehicle includes a control valve connection for pneumatically coupling the air treatment system to at least one control valve connected upstream of a wheel brake cylinder of the brake system that is configured to alter a brake pressure in the wheel brake cylinder, a supply valve for supplying the control valve connection with a required pressure, and a control device for controlling the supply valve.
WORK MACHINE AND BRAKING METHOD FOR WORK MACHINE
An autonomous traveling vehicle, equipped with autonomous traveling function on a standard machine, has a high-pressure selector valve placed on a flow path in which pressure-oil is supplied from a standard brake valve (SBV) installed in the standard machine to a hydraulic brake. A flow path is installed to connect the high-pressure selector valve and an autonomous brake control valve (ABCV) that is supplied with pressure-oil delivered by a hydraulic pump. Further, an autonomous traveling controller is installed to perform control for autonomous travel, and an autonomous brake controller is installed to perform open or close control on the ABCV in response to a braking instruction from the autonomous traveling controller. When the brake pedal is stepped on, the pressure-oil flows from the SBV to the hydraulic brake, and when the autonomous traveling controller outputs a stop instruction, the pressure-oil flows from the ABCV to the hydraulic brake.
Blow-by gas recirculation device for internal combustion engine
This blow-by gas recirculation device for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle is provided with a vacuum pump which supplies negative pressure to a brake booster. The blow-by gas recirculation device includes: a fresh-air introduction passage for introducing a fresh air into a crankcase from an intake passage upstream of a throttle valve; a PCV device for recirculating, to the intake passage downstream of the throttle valve, blow-by gas in the crankcase; and a suction/recirculation means which uses the vacuum pump to suck the blow-by gas from inside the crankcase, in a region where the blow-by gas ventilation quantity by the PCV device is insufficient, and recirculate the blow-by gas to the intake passage, while the fresh air is being introduced from the fresh-air introduction passage. As a result, the blow-by gas concentration in the crankcase is reduced, engine oil contact opportunities are reduced, and oil deterioration is inhibited.
