Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A working machine includes a traveling vehicle that is a first moving entity, a working device that is a second moving entity coupled to the first moving entity, and a sub battery loaded on the second moving entity to store an energy source to drive the traveling vehicle. Therefore, it is not necessary to newly provide a configuration to load the sub battery on the traveling vehicle, and a battery can be easily loaded. In a case where the traveling vehicle includes a main battery, the traveling and work can be continued according to a capacity of the sub battery without being stopped in order to charge the main battery that has a decreased remaining charge level.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A working machine comprising: a first moving entity; a second moving entity coupled to the first moving entity; and a storage loaded on the second moving entity to store an energy source to drive the first moving entity. 2 . The working machine according to claim 1 , wherein the second moving entity includes a working device to perform work; and the storage is loaded on the working device. 3 . The working machine according to claim 1 , wherein the second moving entity includes a working device to perform work; and the storage is coupled to the working device. 4 . The working machine according to claim 1 , further comprising: a supply path that is a path of the energy source supplied from the storage to the first moving entity; and a connector to connect and disconnect the supply path, allow supply of the energy source when connected, and cut off supply of the energy source when disconnected. 5 . The working machine according to claim 4 , wherein the connector in the first moving entity faces the second moving entity coupled to the first moving entity. 6 . The working machine according to claim 4 , wherein the storage includes a battery that charges and discharges electric energy as the energy source; the second moving entity includes a working device to perform work; the working device is capable of receiving a signal from the first moving entity; and the working machine further comprises: a communication path to transmit the signal from the first moving entity toward the working device; and a connector to connect and disconnect the supply path and the communication path, allow supply of the electric energy and transmission of the signal when connected, and cut off supply of the electric energy and transmission of the signal when disconnected. 7 . The working machine according to claim 5 , wherein the storage includes a battery to charge and discharge electric energy as the energy source; the second moving entity includes a working device to perform work; the working device is capable of receiving a signal from the first moving entity; and the working machine further comprises: a communication path to transmit the signal from the first moving entity toward the working device; and a connector to connect and disconnect the supply path and the communication path, allow supply of the electric energy and transmission of the signal when connected, and cut off supply of the electric energy and transmission of the signal when disconnected.
