Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a work vehicle which performs a work in a field and the like.
  • JP-A-2006-333834 As for a technology which brakes a work vehicle which performs a work in a field and the like, a technology described in JP-A-2006-333834 is known commonly, for example.
  • JP-A-2006-333834 in a case where a combine moves by a preset distance or time, right and left brakes are operated at the same time to lock right and left crawlers and to stop the traveling automatically.
  • JP-A-2006-333834 describes that an engine is stopped instead of the configuration of operating the right and left brakes, so as to stop the traveling of the combine. Accordingly, in JP-A-2006-333834 , the combine travels in an unmanned manner on the step for moving to the cargo bed of the truck, and then is stopped automatically on the cargo bed of the truck.
  • the configuration of operating right and left brakes is not in conjunction with the configuration of stopping the engine. That is, there is a problem that the engine cannot be stopped automatically in a case where a defect occurs in a brake mechanism such as a brake. Particularly, in the work vehicle which travels a field by autonomous control, a driving is performed in an unmanned manner in many cases, and the worker may not stop the engine and the like urgently. Therefore, in a case where the defect occurs in the brake mechanism, there is a risk that the work vehicle continuously travels, resulting in colliding with an obstacle such as a human or an animal (if exists) in a progressing direction.
  • a technical object of the invention is to stop a traveling vehicle body safely although a defect occurs in a brake mechanism.
  • a work vehicle including: a traveling vehicle body; an engine supported by the traveling vehicle body; a power transmission device which transmits power of the engine to a wheel, and has a clutch member which is supported to be movable between a transmission position of transmitting the power from the engine and a block position of blocking the transmission of the power from the engine; a braking device which brakes the wheel; a brake control unit which allows the clutch member to move to the block position and the braking device to operate in a case where the traveling vehicle body is braked; a brake determination unit which determine whether the traveling vehicle body is braked in a case where the braking device is operated; and an engine control unit which stops the engine in a case where the traveling vehicle body is not braked on the basis of a determination result of the brake determination unit.
  • the work vehicle may further includes an autonomous control unit which allows the traveling vehicle body to travel autonomously along a preset scheduled path, and the brake control unit may allow the clutch member to move to the block position and the braking device to operate in a case where the autonomous control unit brakes the traveling vehicle body.
  • the work vehicle may further includes: wheels on front and rear sides of the traveling vehicle body; a first transmission system which transmits the power of the engine to the rear wheel; and a second transmission system which transmits the power transmitted to the first transmission system to the front wheel
  • the work vehicle may be provided with: the clutch member is provided which switches transmission and block of the power from the engine to the first transmission system; the power transmission device which is arranged between the first transmission system and the second transmission system and has a driving switch clutch member which is supported to be movable between a four-wheels driving position of transmitting the power from the first transmission system to the second transmission system and a two-wheels driving position of blocking the transmission of the power from the first transmission system to the second transmission system; the braking device which brakes the rear wheel; and the brake control unit which allows the clutch member to move to the block position and the driving switch clutch member to move to the four-wheels driving position in a case where the traveling vehicle body is braked.
  • the work vehicle may further includes: a vehicle speed detection unit which detects a traveling speed of the traveling vehicle body on the basis of a rotation of the wheel braked by the braking device, and the brake control unit may be provided which allows the clutch member to move to a half-transmission position set between the transmission position and the block position in a case where the brake determination unit determines on the basis of the traveling speed that the wheel is stopped.
  • a vehicle speed detection unit which detects a traveling speed of the traveling vehicle body on the basis of a rotation of the wheel braked by the braking device
  • the brake control unit may be provided which allows the clutch member to move to a half-transmission position set between the transmission position and the block position in a case where the brake determination unit determines on the basis of the traveling speed that the wheel is stopped.
  • the braking device may be operated while traveling is stopped.
  • the engine in a case where it is determined that the traveling vehicle body is not braked even when the clutch member is moved to the block position to operate the braking device, the engine can be stopped. Accordingly, the traveling vehicle body can be stopped safely even when a defect occurs in the brake mechanism such as the clutch member or the braking device.
  • the traveling vehicle body in a case where the traveling vehicle body is allowed to travel autonomously, the traveling vehicle body can also be stopped safely even when the defect occurs in the brake mechanism.
  • the front wheel in a case where the braking device brakes the rear wheel, the front wheel can also be braked through the first transmission system and the second transmission system. Accordingly, the braking distance can be shortened easily compared to the case of the two-wheels driving.
  • the clutch member in a case where the wheels are braked, can also be moved to the half-transmission position. Accordingly, the power can be rapidly transmitted to the wheel at the time of restarting compared to a case where the clutch member is not moved to the half-transmission position. In addition, it can be suppressed that the traveling vehicle body moves by own weight conversely to the traveling direction compared to a case where the clutch member is not moved to the half-transmission position.
