20140102085 | HYDRAULIC EXCAVATOR - A hydraulic excavator includes an engine, a rotating frame, a vehicle body frame, a diesel particulate filtering device, a selective catalytic reduction device, and a connecting pipe. The diesel particulate filtering device and the selective catalytic reduction device are supported by a vehicle body frame. At least a portion of the connecting pipe includes an extendable bellows part. The connecting pipe connects the engine and the diesel particulate filtering device. The diesel particulate filtering device is located further away from the engine than the selective catalytic reduction device along a first direction on a horizontal plane. The first tubular body portion of the diesel particulate filtering device and the second tubular body portion of the selective catalytic reduction device are disposed apart from each other with a space therebetween in a plan view. | 04-17-2014 |
20140102823 | HYDRAULIC EXCAVATOR - A hydraulic excavator includes an engine, a revolving frame supporting the engine, a vehicle body frame, a diesel particulate filter device, and a first connecting pipe. The vehicle body frame is disposed on the revolving frame. The diesel particulate filter device and the selective catalytic reduction device are supported by the vehicle body frame. The first connecting pipe connects the engine and the diesel particulate filter device. The first connecting pipe includes a bellows part that is extendable in at least a portion thereof. The diesel particulate filter device is located further away from the engine than the selective catalytic reduction device. The first connecting pipe passes below the selective catalytic reduction device and is connected to the diesel particulate filter device. A connecting portion for the diesel particulate filter device and the first connecting pipe is located below the diesel particulate filter device. | 04-17-2014 |
20140250870 | EXHAUST TREATMENT UNIT - An exhaust treatment unit treats exhaust gas from an engine of a work vehicle. The exhaust treatment unit includes a diesel particulate filter device, a selective catalytic reduction device, a first support component and a second support component. The diesel particulate filter device treats the exhaust gas. The selective catalytic reduction device treats the exhaust gas. The first support component supports the diesel particulate filter device. The second support component supports the selective catalytic reduction device and the first support component. The first support component is detachable from the second support component. | 09-11-2014 |
20150025753 | WORK VEHICLE - A work vehicle includes an engine, an idling stop execution portion, a determination portion, a counting portion, and an idling stop time period adjustment portion. The engine can rotate in a first idling state and a second idling state in which the engine rotates at the number of rotations higher than a prescribed number of rotations. The idling stop execution portion performs an idling stop operation for stopping the engine. The determination portion determines whether or not stop has been made from the second idling state. The counting portion counts the number of times of stop of the engine from the second idling state. An idling stop time period adjustment portion makes a prescribed time period of the second idling state longer than a current time period, when the number of times of stop of the engine is equal to or greater than the prescribed number of times. | 01-22-2015 |
20150198074 | WORK VEHICLE - A work vehicle includes an engine, an injector injecting a reducing agent to an exhaust gas exhausted from the engine, a determination portion determining whether or not a temperature of the injector is high, a stop determination portion determining whether or not the engine has stopped while the injector is in a high-temperature state as a result of determination by the determination portion, a counter counting the number of times of stop of the engine while the injector is in the high-temperature state based on a result of determination by the stop determination portion, and a warning portion giving a warning in connection with stop of the engine when a count value of the counter exceeds a first prescribed value. | 07-16-2015 |
20150240448 | WORK VEHICLE - A work vehicle includes an engine, an exhaust gas purification apparatus, a reducing agent tank, an engine coolant circuit, a branch path, a valve, an accepting portion, and a valve control unit. The exhaust gas purification apparatus purifies a nitrogen oxide in an exhaust gas. The reducing agent tank stores a reducing agent to be supplied to the exhaust gas purification apparatus. The engine coolant circuit includes a water pump for circulating a engine coolant through a circulation path as the engine is driven. The branch path is provided for heat exchange between the engine coolant and the reducing agent in the reducing agent tank. The valve controls supply of the engine coolant into the branch path. The accepting portion accepts an operation instruction from an operator. The valve control unit gives an instruction for an opening operation of the valve in response to the operation instruction from the operator. | 08-27-2015 |
