Abstract

A tractor including: a condenser frame disposed ahead of an engine body; a support plate fixed to the condenser frame; and an engine controller supported by the support plate with vibration-isolating rubber members interposed therebetween. The engine controller is disposed ahead of and above the engine body in a hood. The engine controller declines forward. At least one of the plurality of vibration-isolating rubber members is oriented in a direction perpendicular to a thickness direction of the engine controller, and at least one of the plurality of vibration-isolating rubber members is oriented in a direction parallel to the thickness direction.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A tractor comprising:
an engine body;
a first support member disposed ahead of the engine body;
a second support member fixed to the first support member;
an engine controller supported on the second support member, the engine controller being configured to control the engine body, the second support member disposed above the first support member, the engine controller disposed above the second support member;
an intake pipe configured to supply intake air to an intake unit of the engine body;
at least one engine harness configured to electrically connect the engine body and the engine controller; and
a rib is formed along a longitudinal direction of the intake pipe, the rib configured to support at least one of the engine harnesses; and
wherein the rib extends radially away from an outer surface out the intake pipe.

2. The tractor according to claim 1 , wherein:
a partition plate is disposed between the engine body and the engine controller, and
the engine harness is attached to the rib of the intake pipe in a region opposite to the engine body relative to the partition plate.

3. The tractor according to claim 2 , wherein:
the intake pipe is configured to pass through a notch or a through hole in the partition plate, and
the engine harness passes through the notch or the through hole in the partition plate while being attached to the rib.

4. The tractor according to claim 1 , wherein the engine body is closer to the rib than the engine harness.

5. The tractor according to claim 4 , further comprising:
a band configured to bundle the engine harness,
wherein the band is fixed to the rib.

6. The tractor according to claim 5 , further comprising:
a fixing member attached to the band,
wherein the rib has an attachment hole for detachably attaching the fixing member.

7. The tractor according to claim 6 , wherein:
the intake pipe extends from a first end coupled to the engine body to a second end; and
the second end of the intake pipe configured to be coupled to an air cleaner.

8. The tractor according to claim 7 , wherein:
the rib defines one or more attachment holes; and
the band is configured to extend through one of the one or more attachment holes when the band is fixed to the rib.

9. The tractor according to claim 7 , wherein the rib extends along at least at least 50% of the length from the first end to the second end of the intake pipe.
