Operation vehicle travel control device
To provide a travel control device for a working vehicle, including a speed change lever that is applicable even when a transmission in which speed stages are set to be larger by one stage is applied, the travel control device comprises a switching device ( 41 ) that switches speed changed by a transmission ( 3 ) either manually or automatically, a speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ) that selects a speed stage out of a plurality of speed stages of the transmission ( 3 ), and a first speed selecting device ( 40 ) that changes the speed stage manually down to a first speed separately from the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ), regardless of a switching state of the switching device ( 41 ), wherein the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ) selects the speed stages including a second speed or more but excluding the first speed, and a control device ( 10 ) is further provided, which controls the transmission ( 3 ) based on instructions sent from the switching device ( 41 ), the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ), and the first speed selecting device ( 40 ).
1. A travel control device for a working vehicle ( 100 ) provided with a driving source ( 1 ), a torque converter ( 2 ) that amplifies a torque transmitted from the driving source ( 1 ), and a transmission ( 3 ) that transmits the torque that has been amplified and output by the torque converter ( 2 ) to perform speed change, the travel control device comprising:
a switching device ( 41 ) that switches speed changed by the transmission ( 3 ) into either manual speed change or automatic speed change;
a speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ) that is arranged to select a speed stage out of a plurality of speed stages of the transmission ( 3 ); and
a first speed selecting device ( 43 ) that is arranged to change the speed stage manually down to a first speed separately from the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ), regardless of a switching state of the switching device ( 41 ), wherein
the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ) is arranged to select the speed stages including a second speed or more but excluding the first speed, and
a control device ( 10 ) is further provided, which is arranged to control the speed change performed by the transmission based on instructions sent from the switching device ( 41 ), the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ) and the first speed selecting device ( 43 ).
2. The travel control device for a working vehicle ( 100 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the control device ( 10 ) is arranged to control the speed change with setting the speed stage that has been selected by the speed stage selecting device ( 30 b ) as an upper limit, in a state where the switching device ( 41 ) is switched into the automatic speed change.
