Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
To provide a work vehicle that does not include a forward-reverse lever and is capable of stopping transmission of drive to a PTO shaft at a low cost when the vehicle is stopped or is moving backward. A work vehicle includes: a PTO shaft configured to transmit power to a work machine; a transmission; a forward pedal to be operated to move a traveling vehicle body forward; a switch configured to determine whether the forward pedal is operated; and a PTO clutch configured to switch the power to the PTO shaft to a non-transmission state when it is determined that the forward pedal is not operated based on a determination result of the switch. The forward pedal is provided on one of left and right sides of the transmission, and the switch is provided on the other of the left and right sides of the transmission.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A work vehicle comprising: a PTO shaft configured to transmit power to a work machine; a transmission; a forward pedal to be operated to move a traveling vehicle body forward; a switch configured to determine whether the forward pedal is operated; and a PTO clutch configured to switch the power to the PTO shaft to a non-transmission state when it is determined that the forward pedal is not operated based on a determination result of the switch, wherein the forward pedal is provided on one of left and right sides of the transmission, and the switch is provided on the other of the left and right sides of the transmission. 2. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising: an interlocking shaft configured to rotate in conjunction with an operation of the forward pedal, wherein the switch is configured to perform detection as the interlocking shaft rotates, and the interlocking shaft is provided across the left and right sides of the transmission.
