A work vehicle includes a rollover protection structure (ROPS) around a driver's seat and a receiver supported at an upper portion of the ROPS to receive positional information from a satellite. A harness for the receiver is routed along an outer peripheral surface of the ROPS. A cover is provided to cover the harness.

A universal mount for installing a canopy onto work vehicle ROPS (roll bars) that have left and right downward extensions and a bridging element between the left and right downward extensions. A clamp secures the universal mount onto a ROPS, and a crossbar attached to the clamp extends parallel to the bridging element. The crossbar has plates on each opposed end. Each crossbar plate has at least one slot adapted to receive a fastener. Offset plates can be mounted to a peripheral frame of a canopy. The universal mount can be clamped to a ROPS. The canopy fastens to the crossbar by aligning holes on the offset plates affixed to the canopy with the slots in the crossbar plates, passing fasteners through the aligned hole and slot, adjusting the canopy attitude to a desired orientation by positioning fasteners at a selected position in the slots.

A work vehicle in which a safety frame can be easily attached and detached while costs are decreased. The work vehicle according to an embodiment includes: left and right rear axle cases; the safety frame which is attached to upper portions of the left and right rear axle cases and erected behind an operator seat and has an arch shape in a front view of a machine body; and a rear-side floor mount bracket that supports a rear portion of a floor step from below on left and right sides of the machine body. The rear-side floor mount bracket supports the floor step at a position that is different from attachment positions of the safety frame with respect to the left and right rear axle cases.

To reduce complexity of operation when a working vehicle performs automatic steering, the working vehicle includes a vehicle body to be manually steered with a steering wheel or automatically steered to travel forward or rearward, an operator's seat on the vehicle body, a console located forward of the operator's seat or located on one side of the operator's seat, a first manual operator for automatic steering provided in or on the console, and a second manual operator for automatic steering attachable at a location rearward of the operator's seat.

A canopy assembly includes a lower canopy installed fixedly in a side of a driver's seat and including a pair of first and second lower pipes that extend upwardly respectively, a pair of fastening blocks inserted and fixed into the first and second lower pipes respectively, each of the fastening blocks having a receiving hole therein that extends from an upper surface into the inside thereof, and an upper canopy including a pair of first and second upper pipes that are inserted and fixed into the receiving holes of the fastening blocks respectively.

A tractor includes a protective frame including a lower frame and an upper frame rotatably coupled with an upper portion of the lower frame, and an assist mechanism to assists a rotation of the upper frame.

A protection mechanism for a working vehicle includes a roof above an operator's seat and including a cutout extending along a top-bottom direction, and an electric device at least partially located in the cutout. The cutout has a dimension along a vehicle-body-width direction that is uniform or substantially uniform along a front-to-rear direction or increases in the front-to-rear direction. The cutout has a thickness along the top-bottom direction that decreases in the front-to-rear direction. The roof include, in an upper surface thereof, a first groove located on an opposite side of the cutout from the electric device and extending in a direction away from the cutout.

Aspects hereof relate to a control system for a terrain working vehicle having an operator protection apparatus. In some aspects, the control system instructs and ceases an actuation of the operator protection apparatus to and between a raised position and a lowered position.

A drive and control system for a lawn tractor includes a CAN-Bus network, a plurality of controllers, a pair of electric transaxles controlled by the plurality of controllers, and one or more steering and drive input devices coupled to respective sensor(s) for sensing user steering and drive inputs. The plurality of controllers communicate with one or more vehicle sensors via the CAN-Bus network. The plurality of controllers receive the user's steering and drive inputs and posts on the CAN-Bus network and generate drive signals to obtain the desired speed and direction of motion of the lawn tractor.

A post for a cab of a vehicle includes an elongated tubular element presenting a tubular element cavity extending longitudinally within the post and an elongated reinforcement element extending in the longitudinal direction of the tubular element along a part of the tubular element, and including a base end and a free end. A tapered portion of the reinforcement element includes the free end thereof being located in the tubular element cavity and tapered in the direction from the base end towards the free end. A base portion of the reinforcement element is at least partly located in the tubular element cavity and extends from the tapered portion to the base end. The reinforcement element presents a smooth transition between the tapered portion and the base portion.
