Work vehicle and running control apparatus causing automatic running of work vehicle
A work vehicle includes an automatic running control unit 51 that executes automatic running based on an own vehicle position and a target running path; a manual running control unit 52 that executes manual running based on an operation signal from a manual running operation unit 9 that is manually operated; a first control unit 61 that executes a change from manual running to automatic running, a manual stoppage of the vehicle being a condition for the change; a second control unit 62 that executes a forced stoppage of the vehicle when changing from automatic running to manual running; and a third control unit 63 that executes a forced stoppage of the vehicle by temporarily suspending automatic running in response to a suspend instruction from the manual running operation unit 9 , and resumes automatic running in response to a resume instruction from the manual running operation unit 9.
1. A work vehicle, comprising:
an own vehicle position detection module configured to detect an own vehicle position;
a path calculation unit configured to calculate a target running path;
an automatic running control unit configured to execute automatic running based on the own vehicle position and the target running path;
a manual running operation unit configured to be manually operated;
a manual running control unit configured to execute manual running based on an operation signal from the manual running operation unit;
a first control unit configured to execute a change from manual running by the manual running control unit to automatic running by the automatic running control unit, a manual stoppage of the vehicle being a condition for the change;
a second control unit configured to execute a forced stoppage of the vehicle when changing from automatic running by the automatic running control unit to manual running by the manual running control unit; and
a third control unit configured to execute a forced stoppage of the vehicle by temporarily suspending automatic running by the automatic running control unit in response to a suspend instruction from the manual running operation unit, and configured to resume automatic running by the automatic running control unit in response to a resume instruction from the manual running operation unit.
2. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the first control unit identifies a change to automatic running based on a condition of at least any one of input of a detection signal that indicates detection of a neutral state of a forward/backward operation tool, input of a detection signal that indicates detection of an OFF state of a Power Take Off (PTO) driving operation tool, input of a detection signal that indicates detection of an active state of an automatic running signal, and existence of an automatic running request signal to request automatic running, and the first control unit, while identifying the change to automatic running, permits execution of automatic running by the automatic running control unit in response to input of an automatic running permission signal to permit automatic running.
3. The work vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the automatic running request signal is generated by operating an internal operation device provided in the work vehicle, and the automatic running permission signal is generated by a remote operation device configured to be operated from outside of the work vehicle.
4. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the second control unit executes a forced stoppage in order to change from automatic running by the automatic running control unit to manual running by the manual running control unit in response to any one of an operation to change a vehicle speed setting, operation of a manual control device, existence of an automatic running unnecessary signal that cancels a request for automatic running, and an automatic running stop instruction by a remote operation device configured to be operated from outside of the work vehicle.
5. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein after the forced stoppage, the second control unit permits execution of manual running based on a manual operation of the vehicle in order to perform manual running.
