The turning radius of a differentially steered vehicle towing a trailer is controlled when turning so that its turning radius is greater than a minimum allowable turning radius. The turning radius may be autonomously adjusted using a controller to monitor the instantaneous rotational speed differential between the driven wheels and increase or decrease the relative speed between the wheels when the instantaneous rotational speed differential exceeds a threshold rotational speed differential, indicating a turn which is too tight. Alternately, the turning radius may be controlled by the vehicle's operator, who receives a signal from the controller indicating that the vehicle's turning radius is less than the minimum allowable. The operator may then take action to enlarge the turning radius using manual controls.

A ground utility robot and implement attachment apparatus having a ground utility robot, at least one implement, at least one solar panel, at least one battery that is chargeable by the at least one solar panel, a power take-off system that is connected to the ground utility robot and to the at least one implement; where the battery powers said ground utility robot and the implement; a safety system that has a computer, a safety program that utilizes a processing logic on the computer, where the safety program initiates precautionary measures that are carried out by the ground utility robot and the power take-off system if an object comes within a predefined distance from the ground utility robot and implement attachment apparatus.

A vehicle may include a movable roof, a sensor supported by the roof, and an actuator for selectively raising and lowering the roof.

A working vehicle is capable of autonomously traveling on a target traveling route and appropriately performing illumination during autonomous traveling to enable an operator to reliably confirm the presence of obstacles or the like on the target traveling route. The working vehicle includes a traveling body to autonomously travel on the target traveling route, illumination lamps located on the traveling body to respectively illuminate different directions, and a controller to change a control relating to a way of turning on the illumination lamps during the autonomously traveling.

A power supply system (10) is used for supplying power to a power system of an electric tractor and comprises a bracket (100) that is provided above and below a frame of a transport trailer, first cases (200) that are provided on the bracket and first power battery packs that are suspended inside the first case. Each of the first cases is provided with a first ventilation structure and a second ventilation structure (211) so that while the transport trailer is moving, wind can enter the first case from the first ventilation structure and be discharged from the second ventilation structure, thus achieving further cooling and heat dissipation for the first power battery packs and avoiding service life being impacted due to the first power battery pack overheating.

A power and cooling assembly is disclosed for use with a vehicle having a deck for a rotatable tool such as a mowing blade. An electric motor is mounted on the deck and used to drive the blades by an output shaft. A circulating pump is connected to a housing of the electric motor and is also driven by the electric motor. The circulating pump is hydraulically connected to at least one sump on the vehicle and at least one electrical component of the vehicle to provide cooling thereto. Additional cooling pumps may be provided on the vehicle and may provide cooling to additional electrical components.

In one aspect, an electrically-powered wheel assembly for a work vehicle may include an axle and a wheel configured to rotate relative to the axle. The wheel may, in turn, be positioned outward from the axle in a radial direction such that a wheel cavity is defined between the wheel and the axle in the radial direction. The wheel assembly may also include a first electric motor configured to rotationally drive the wheel relative to the axle, with the first electric motor positioned within the wheel cavity and configured to receive electric power from a power source. Furthermore, the wheel assembly may include a second electric motor positioned within the wheel cavity and configured to rotationally drive the wheel relative to the axle, with the second electric motor configured to receive electric power through the first electric motor.

An electric work vehicle includes a driver section that an operator is able to enter, a battery positioned forward of the driver section, a motor drivable on electric power supplied by the battery, a travel device drivable by the motor, a cover including an accommodation space inside and capable of being opened and closed, wherein the battery includes an electricity storage to store electric power and a battery cover hermetically accommodating the electricity storage, and the battery cover includes an outer wall surface defining a portion of an exterior of the electric work vehicle.

An electric work vehicle includes a work device, a battery, a motor drivable on electric power supplied by the battery, a travel device drivable by the motor, and a hydraulic pump positioned next to the motor and drivable by the motor to supply operating fluid to an operating mechanism of the work device.

A tractor including: a traveling body having an engine; a post-processing device configured to purify exhaust gas of the engine; and a reductant tank configured to store a reductant to be supplied to the post-processing device. A pair of left and right fuel tanks are arranged respectively on left and right sides of a longitudinally midway portion of the traveling body. A tank-accommodation recess for accommodating a reductant tank is formed at a lower-front portion of one of the left and right fuel tanks. While the reductant tank is accommodated in the tank-accommodation recess, an upper front portion of the fuel tank and the reductant tank are aligned up and down.
