Operation tools for operating working equipment provided on the vehicle body are disposed on one of the fenders, and the partition wall is provided offset toward a side where operation tools are disposed relative to the driver's seat.

A method of operating an agricultural vehicle including a range gearbox, an independent PTO system driven from an auxiliary drive shaft and a ground speed PTO system driven from an output shaft of the range gearbox. The method includes transferring torque from the auxiliary drive shaft to the output shaft of the range gear box via the independent PTO system and the ground speed PTO system while drive to the range gearbox is interrupted during a change in the range gear.

A transmission structure of the present invention changes capacity of pump body so that vehicle speed detected by vehicle speed sensor increases and reduces according to speed-increasing and speed-reducing operations of speed-change operating member while fixing capacity of motor body at a low-speed motor capacity when the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a switching speed that is realized by setting motor body to the low-speed motor capacity and setting the pump body to a predetermined pump switching capacity, and changes capacity of motor body so that vehicle speed increases and reduces in accordance with speed-increasing and speed-reducing operations of speed-change operating member while fixing capacity of the pump body at the pump switching capacity when vehicle speed is higher than the switching speed.

A working machine includes a vehicle body; a traveling device that supports the vehicle body; a drive that drives the traveling device; and a cabin that accommodates an operator seat. The drive has a drive motor that drives the traveling device; a fuel cell that supplies electric power to the drive motor; a controller that controls power supply from the fuel cell to the drive motor; and a hydrogen tank that supplies a hydrogen gas for fuel to the fuel cell. The hydrogen tank is disposed in an upper portion of an internal space of the cabin.

A transmission structure of the present invention causes, during a period from a time point when a rotational speed of a drive rotational power reaches a predetermined first/second speed stage shift-up start speed until a first/second speed stage shift-up end time point, one of an input-side clutch mechanism pair and an output-side clutch mechanism pair to be in a double transmitting state, and causes, in the double transmitting state, a first clutch mechanism and a second clutch mechanism of the other one of the input-side clutch mechanism pair and the output-side clutch mechanism pair to be shifted to a disengagement sate and an engagement state, respectively, while having frictional plate slid.

The front grill is attached to the center pillar, the light unit is attached to the front grill, and the upper cover is supported by the center pillar. The hood is further provided with a side frame and a lower cover, where the side frame is attached to the center pillar, and the lower cover is attached to at least the upper cover and the side frame.

A propulsion system for an electric vehicle includes an assembly of four electric propulsion machines each having a stator and a rotor having an output shaft that is movable in rotation about an axis. Also includes is a common gearwheel that is kinematically connected to the n output shafts and that is able to receive the torque provided by the electric machines so as to form a first speed reducer, and primary gearwheels able to be driven by the common gearwheel. An intermediate shaft is able to be driven by intermediate gearwheels, each primary gearwheel being kinematically connected to a corresponding intermediate gearwheel so as to form a pair of gears with which a second speed reducer is associated, and a secondary shaft that is able to drive the vehicle and that has a secondary gearwheel kinematically connected to the intermediate shaft so as to form a third speed reducer.

A system and method of capacitance management in an agricultural vehicle and connected implement, wherein the vehicle and implement have a plurality of electric drives connected to a common connection and connectable to a direct current supply, and each electric drive has an associated Y capacitor between each direct current supply connection and the common connection, wherein the method includes receiving and summing capacitance values for each of the electric drives and comparing with a stored threshold value. If the threshold value is exceeded, a sequence of selective disconnections of individual electric drives is performed until the sum of the received capacitance values is less than or equal to the threshold value. The method may be performed manually, or automatically based on a sequence defined in a priority list until the sum of the received capacitance values is less than or equal to the threshold value.
