Abstract

A work vehicle includes an antenna which executes communication with an external portion and a communication terminal device which is electrically connected to the antenna. The antenna and the communication terminal device are arranged within a dash board which is provided in a rising manner so as to bury a steering column where a control steering wheel is arranged.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A work vehicle comprising: an antenna which executes communication external of the vehicle; a communication terminal device which is electrically connected to the antenna; a dash board; and a steering column, wherein the antenna and the communication terminal device are arranged within the dash board and wherein the steering column extends through the dashboard and a control steering wheel is arranged on the steering column, and wherein a heat shield plate is provided in a front surface side of the steering column, and the antenna and the communication terminal device are attached to the heat shield plate, the work vehicle further comprising a meter panel fixed to the dash board, wherein the antenna is disposed in a space lying between a top face of the dash board, the meter panel and the heat shield plate, in a side view of the work vehicle, and wherein the dashboard is arranged so as to cover the antenna and the communication terminal device.

2. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein a meter controller electrically connected to the meter panel is integrally constructed with the meter panel, and the meter controller is arranged within the dash board so as to face to the communication terminal device.

3. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising a DPF (diesel articulate filter) regeneration switch, a working switch, and a one-touch automatic switch,
wherein the DPF regeneration switch is provided on an upper surface of the steering column, whereby the DPF regeneration switch is arranged in a field of vision of a forward facing operator.

4. The work vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the working switch and the one-touch automatic switch are arranged on the upper surface of the steering column which is bilaterally symmetrical about the control steering wheel shaft, in the upper surface of the steering column.

5. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising a tilt lever and a telescopic lever which adjust a posture of the control steering wheel,
