Work vehicle
The hydraulic excavator comprises a revolving frame, a boom, a rotary encoder, and a link member. The revolving frame has a base plate and a first vertical plate and second vertical plate that are opposite each other and rise from the base plate. The boom is rotatably supported by the first vertical plate and the second vertical plate. The rotary encoder is provided at a position that is different from a position of the rotational axis of the boom, and senses the rotational angle of the boom according to the rotation of the boom. The link member transmits displacement of the boom to the rotary encoder.
1. A work vehicle, comprising:
a frame having a first vertical plate and a second vertical plate that are opposite each other;
a boom rotatably supported by the first vertical plate and the second vertical plate;
an angle sensor disposed at a different position from a position of a rotational axis of the boom;
a link member transmitting a rotational angle of the boom to the angle sensor according to a rotation of the boom;
a tank disposed on the frame and to a side of the first vertical plate; and
a flat support member fixed to the first vertical plate to support the angle sensor;
the angle sensor being disposed on the flat support member higher than the tank.
2. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein
the angle sensor is disposed higher than the rotational axis.
3. The work vehicle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the tank is a reductant tank.
4. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein
the angle sensor is disposed on the second vertical plate side of the flat support member.
5. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the link member includes
a first member linked to the angle sensor; and
a second member linked to the boom,
the first member and the second member being mutually rotatably linked,
the first member being disposed substantially parallel to a straight line that connects the rotational axis of the boom with a linked portion of the second member and the boom, and
the second member being disposed substantially parallel to a straight line that connects the rotational axis of the boom with a linked portion of the angle sensor and the first member.
