First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A work vehicle including a work machine with a bucket, which is configured to freely raise/lower and rotate the bucket, the work vehicle comprising: a display disposed near an operator seat, wherein the display is configured to display vertical position information and angle information of the bucket. 2 . The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the display is configured to display the vertical position information synchronized with an upward/downward movement of the bucket, and to display the angle information synchronized with a rotational movement of the bucket. 3 . The work vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the display is configured to display vertical position setting information as an index of the upward/downward movement of the bucket, and to display angle setting information as an index of the rotational movement of the bucket. 4 . The work vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the display includes an operation section that allows operation for setting the vertical position setting information and the angle setting information. 5 . The work vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising: a control section, wherein the display includes: a display section configured to display in a selectable manner a plurality of the work machines that are attached to and linkable to the work vehicle, and to display in an identifiable manner one of the work machines that is linked to the work vehicle; and an operation section that allows operation for linking the work vehicle to one of the work machines displayed on the display section, and wherein the control section cuts a linkage between the work vehicle and one of the work machines that is linked thereto and makes a linkage between the work vehicle and desired one of the work machines when the operation section is operated to link the work vehicle to the desired one of the work machines. 6 . The work vehicle according to claim 2 , further comprising: a control section, wherein the display includes: a display section configured to display in a selectable manner a plurality of the work machines that are attached to and linkable to the work vehicle, and to display in an identifiable manner one of the work machines that is linked to the work vehicle; and an operation section that allows operation for linking the work vehicle to one of the work machines displayed on the display section, and wherein the control section cuts a linkage between the work vehicle and one of the work machines that is linked thereto and makes a linkage between the work vehicle and desired one of the work machines when the operation section is operated to link the work vehicle to the desired one of the work machines. 7 . The work vehicle according to claim 3 , further comprising: a control section, wherein the display includes: a display section configured to display in a selectable manner a plurality of the work machines that are attached to and linkable to the work vehicle, and to display in an identifiable manner one of the work machines that is linked to the work vehicle; and an operation section that allows operation for linking the work vehicle to one of the work machines displayed on the display section, and wherein the control section cuts a linkage between the work vehicle and one of the work machines that is linked thereto and makes a linkage between the work vehicle and desired one of the work machines when the operation section is operated to link the work vehicle to the desired one of the work machines. 8 . The work vehicle according to claim 4 , further comprising: a control section, wherein the display includes: a display section configured to display in a selectable manner a plurality of the work machines that are attached to and linkable to the work vehicle, and to display in an identifiable manner one of the work machines that is linked to the work vehicle; and an operation section that allows operation for linking the work vehicle to one of the work machines displayed on the display section, and wherein the control section cuts a linkage between the work vehicle and one of the work machines that is linked thereto and makes a linkage between the work vehicle and desired one of the work machines when the operation section is operated to link the work vehicle to the desired one of the work machines.
