Stability control for hydraulic work machine
A work machine includes a mechanical arm. A work implement is coupled to the mechanical arm to receive a load. A hydraulic actuator moves the arm between a lower position and an upper position, wherein a distance between the lower position and the upper position is a travel distance of the mechanical arm. A sensor unit is configured to sense the load in the work implement. A valve is in fluid communication with the hydraulic actuator for supplying a fluid output to the hydraulic actuator. A controller is in communication with the valve and the sensor unit. The controller is configured to transmit a control signal to the valve to adjust the fluid output to the hydraulic actuator. The controller is also configured to adjust the upper position to reduce the travel distance in response to the load being at or above a threshold value.
System and method for estimating the weight of a load carried by an implement of a work vehicle
A method for estimating load weights for a work vehicle including a boom pivotably coupled to the chassis of the work vehicle at a boom joint and an implement pivotably coupled to the boom at an implement joint may include receiving an input indicative of a tilt force associated with a tilt cylinder configured to pivot the implement about the implement joint, and an input indicative of a lift force associated with a lift cylinder configured to pivot the boom about the boom joint. The method may further include determining a torque about the implement joint caused by the load based on the tilt force and determining a torque about the boom joint caused by the load based on the lift and tilt forces. Additionally, the method may include estimating a weight of the load based on the torques about the boom and implement joints.
Engine mount for compact utility loader
A compact utility loader compact utility loader comprising a frame, and a pair of loader arms supported by the frame. The frame includes a right side, a left side, and a bottom side extending between the right side and the left side. The compact utility loader additionally includes an engine mount secured to the bottom side of the frame and spaced apart from each of the left side and the right side of the frame. The compact utility loader further comprises an engine supported on the engine mount.

SYSTEM COMPRISING WORK MACHINE, AND WORK MACHINE
An image clearly displaying a work machine is easily obtained. A posture data generation unit estimates a posture of a work implement with respect to the body of the work machine in a captured image displaying the work machine. A motion state image generation unit creates a three-dimensional model representing a stereoscopic shape of the work machine based on the posture of the work implement. A specific viewpoint image generation unit creates image data including a two-dimensional image of the three-dimensional model, as viewed at a viewpoint position indicating a position of a viewpoint at which the three-dimensional model is virtually viewed.
Work vehicle control method, work vehicle control device, and work vehicle
In controlling a work vehicle including a boom supported by a vehicle body and configured to turn, and a bucket supported by a side, away from the vehicle body, of the boom and configured to turn according to an operation of an actuator, an operation amount for raising the boom or a rising speed of the boom, and an operable amount that the actuator is able to operate before the bucket reaches a stop position on the dump side based on the posture of the boom and the posture of the bucket, are obtained, and an operation amount of the actuator for causing the bucket to tilt is changed based on the operation amount for raising the boom or the rising speed of the boom to thereby cause the bucket to tilt according to the operable amount.
