Dipper hydraulic cylinder 123 and scraper bowl hydraulic cylinder 124 that working rig 120 has dipper 121 and scraper bowl 122 and drives these dippers 121 and scraper bowl 122.Dipper 121 is accompanied by the telescopic drive of dipper hydraulic cylinder 123 and rotates (elevating movement) at above-below direction, and scraper bowl 122 is accompanied by the telescopic drive of scraper bowl hydraulic cylinder 124 and rotates (toppling over action or the action of shovel dress) at above-below direction.
Fig. 2 is the block diagram of schematic configuration of the drive system of expression wheel loader 100.
As shown in Figure 2, the drive system 130 of wheel loader 100 comprises: motor 131, fluid torque-converter 132, speed changer 133, hydraulic pump 134, control valve 135, controller 136, engine control section 137, transmission control section 138 etc.
Output shaft at motor 131 links the power shaft that fluid torque-converter 132 is arranged, and the output shaft of fluid torque-converter 132 is linked to speed changer 133.Fluid torque-converter 132 is the known fluid clutch that is made of impeller, turbine, stator, and the rotation of motor 131 is passed to speed changer 133 via fluid torque-converter 132.Speed changer 133 has the hydraulic clutch that its speed change level is carried out speed change, and the rotation of the output shaft of fluid torque-converter 132 is by speed changer 133 and by speed change.Rotation after the speed change is via power transmission shaft 141 and wheel shaft 142 and be passed to front-wheel 113 and trailing wheel 114, and thus, wheel loader 100 can travel.
Hydraulic pump 134 is variable capacity type, is driven and ejection hydraulic oil by motor 131.From the ejection oil of hydraulic pump 134 via control valve 135 controlling parties to and flow and be supplied to the operation executing agencies such as dipper hydraulic cylinder 123, scraper bowl hydraulic cylinder 124, to drive these operation executing agencies.Control valve 135 is by dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12 (aftermentioned) operation, respectively according to operation signal control hydraulic oil the flowing to dipper hydraulic cylinder 123 and scraper bowl hydraulic cylinder 124 from dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12.In addition, the pump capacity of hydraulic pump 134 is changed by adjuster (not shown).Adjuster is pressed the change pump capacity according to pump ejection, for example carries out so that the operation torque becomes certain such torque control of deciding.In addition, in hydraulic pump 134, also can use the fixed capacity type pumps such as gear pump.
Controller 136 comprise have CPU, the arithmetic processing apparatus of ROM, RAM, other peripheral circuits etc. and consisting of.For controller 136, input respectively the signal from following member: the throttle operation amount detector 143 that detects the operational ton of gas pedal 13, with the rotating speed of the output shaft (perhaps power transmission shaft 141) of speed changer 133 as the detected speed of vehicle detector 144 of the speed of a motor vehicle, the revolution detector 145 of the rotational speed N i of the power shaft of detection fluid torque-converter 132, the revolution detector 146 of the rotational speed N t of the output shaft of detection fluid torque-converter 132, advance (F) to wheel loader 100 retreats the forward-reverse change-over switch 14 that (R) neutral gear (N) switches, the velocity stage switch 15 of the upper limit of command speed level between 1 speed to 4 speed, the command speed level is to the mandatory down gear switch 16 of the switching of low speed side, 17, the dynamic mode of selection attention workability (below, be called " P pattern ") or pay attention to fuel efficiency economic model (below, be called " E pattern ") a certain driving mode holotype change-over switch 18 (below, be called " main switch 18 "), and the secondary mode change-over switch of equally a certain driving mode of P pattern or E pattern being selected (below, be called " auxiliary switch 19 ").
In addition, in the present embodiment, mandatory down gear switch 16,17, auxiliary switch 19 all are the button-type switches.At this moment, so that can not stride when slightly being pressed down when they cover with regard to output function signal (for fear of operator's undesigned operation) at operator's finger, palm, mandatory down gear switch 16,17 and auxiliary switch 19 only when pressing required stroke, understand the output function signal with guaranteeing certain play.
Fluid torque-converter 132 has the function that the output torque is increased with respect to input torque, and soon torque ratio is made as the function more than 1.Torque ratio be accompanied by the power shaft of fluid torque-converter 132 and the rotating speed of output shaft ratio, be the increase of fluid torque-converter velocity ratio e (output speed Nt/ input speed Ni) and diminishing.For example when being to travel load in travelling under certain state when becoming large in engine speed, the output speed Nt of fluid torque-converter 132 is that the speed of a motor vehicle reduces, and fluid torque-converter speed diminishes than e.At this moment, torque ratio increases, so vehicle can travel with the larger driving force of travelling (tractive force).Be that the speed of a motor vehicle driving force of travelling when slower becomes large (low-speed high-torque), the driving force of travelling when the speed of a motor vehicle is very fast diminish (high speed low torque).
Speed changer 133 is to have the clutch corresponding with each velocity stage of 1 speed to 4 speed and the automatic transmission of electromagnetic valve.These electromagnetic valves are driven by the control signal of 138 outputs from controller 136 to transmission control section, make hydraulic oil act on corresponding clutch and switch clutch.In controller 136, the fluid torque-converter speed as the benchmark that upgrades of storing in advance is than e1 with as lowering category the fluid torque-converter velocity ratio e2 of benchmark.Under automatic shift mode, controller 136 is by going out fluid torque-converter velocity ratio e from revolution detector 145,146 calculated signals, and when the speed that calculates is larger than e1 than reference speed than e, export the signal that upgrades to transmission control section 138, exported lower category signal than e2 hour to transmission control section 138 than reference speed than e in the speed that calculates.The speed change level of speed changer 133 changes between 1 speed to 4 speed than e automatically according to fluid torque-converter speed thus.
At this moment, about velocity stage, the velocity stage that will be selected by velocity stage switch 15 is as the upper limit and fluid drive.For example, selected in the situation of 2 speed by velocity stage switch 15, velocity stage becomes 1 speed or 2 speed according to speed than e, and in the situation of selecting 1 speed, velocity stage is fixed to 1 speed.In addition, although not special diagram, but also can consider to arrange the function that switches to manual shift mode from such automatic shift mode, can Negotiation speed level switch 15 under manual shift mode or the manual operation of the switch that arranges in addition come speed change to be velocity stage arbitrarily.
In addition, mandatory down gear switch 16, the 17th is be used to making velocity stage force the switch that lowers category, whenever the some of mandatory down gear switch 16 or 17 is operated 1 time, controller 136 is just to the transmission control section 138 outputs signal that lowers category, and the speed that makes velocity stage and this moment is than e 1 grade of mandatory down irrespectively.In automatic shift mode, by for example operation mandatory down gear switch 16 or 17 when the speed of a motor vehicle is low speed, velocity stage can be forced to lower category.
More than, speed change when fluid torque-converter speed strides across setting e1 or e2 than e, but also can be the structure that reaches speed change in the situation of setting in the speed of a motor vehicle.In this case, for example, by just realizing to the structure that transmission control section 138 exports upgrade signal or the signal that lowers category according to the signal from speed of vehicle detector 144.
In addition, controller 136 with control of engine speed is and the corresponding target engine speed of the operational ton of gas pedal 13.Namely gas pedal 13 trample quantitative change when large target engine speed become large, controller 136 is to the engine control section 137 outputs control signal corresponding with this target engine speed, with the control engine rotating speed.
Fig. 3 is the engine speed of expression when gas pedal 13 at utmost entered into and the rideability line chart (torque line chart) of the relation of torque.
In Fig. 3, characteristic Ap, Ae are respectively the torque line charts when driving mode is made as P pattern, E pattern.Engine peak speed and is restricted to low speed side with respect to the P pattern with the highest the turning of motor without limits under the E pattern under the P pattern.
Characteristic B0-B2 is an example of the input torque during by motor 131 drive speed transmission 133, and along with engine speed rises, input torque increases.This input torque comprises the input torque of hydraulic pump 134, and according to the absorption torque of fluid torque-converter speed than e and hydraulic pump 134, input torque changes as characteristic B0-B2.Specifically, input torque becomes large (characteristic B0) when fluid torque-converter speed diminishes than e, input torque diminish (characteristic B2) when fluid torque-converter speed becomes large than e.
The intersection point of characteristic Ap, Ae and characteristic B0-B2 is match point, and engine speed becomes the value of this match point.Therefore, the engine speed relative with the input torque of regulation is high under the P pattern than under the E pattern.When engine speed was positioned at match point, the driving force of travelling and this engine speed N's was square proportional.Therefore, large under the E pattern in the driving force ratio of travelling under the P pattern, the amount that engine speed improves that also accelerates of the max. speed under each velocity stage.
Fig. 4 is the figure of the relation of the speed of a motor vehicle under each velocity stage of expression and the driving force of travelling.Among the figure, solid line represents the characteristic of P pattern, and dotted line represents the characteristic of E pattern.
If in Fig. 4 under same velocity stage relatively, the speed of a motor vehicle driving force of more then travelling becomes large (low-speed high-torque), the speed of a motor vehicle driving force diminish (high speed low torque) of comparatively fast then travelling.In addition, velocity stage is less, then can obtain the larger driving force of travelling under the same speed of a motor vehicle.That is, the driving force ratio E pattern of travelling of the maximum under the P pattern is large, and max. speed is also very fast.For example the maximum of the P pattern under 2 velocity stages driving force F2 that travels is larger than the maximum of the E pattern driving force F2 ' that travels, and the max. speed V2hi of P pattern is faster than the max. speed V2 ' hi of E pattern.
Fig. 5 is the top view of the structure in the expression driver's cabin 116.
Be provided with side instrument face plate 22 and working rig operating means 20 on the right side of driver's seat 21.In addition, the front panel 23 in driver's seat 21 the place aheads is provided with steering handle 27, described forward-reverse change-over switch 14 and monitors panel 24, shows which the display part 25 of having selected E pattern and P pattern monitoring that panel 24 possesses.Leading section in forward-reverse change-over switch 14 is provided with described velocity stage switch 15.And then, be provided with below the place ahead of driver's seat 21 and the front panel 23 gas pedal 13 and about brake pedal 26.
Dispose the main switch 18 (also with reference to Fig. 6) that described pattern is switched usefulness at described side instrument face plate 22.Main switch 18 is to be the P position of indicating the P pattern or some alternative expression switches of indicating the E position of E pattern by handover operation.Working rig operating means 20 is positioned at the place ahead of side instrument face plate 22, comprise: the described scraper bowl action bars 12 of the action indication usefulness of scraper bowl hydraulic cylinder 124, the described dipper action bars 11 of the action indication usefulness of dipper hydraulic cylinder 123, the described auxiliary switch 19 of the E pattern that the higher limit of switching engine maximum (top) speed is different/P pattern, and make velocity stage force two the described mandatory down gear switch 16,17 that lower category.
Fig. 7 is the outward appearance skeleton diagram of observing from the rear of expression working rig operating means 20.
As shown in Figure 7, dipper action bars 11 is set up in parallel the right side at the scraper bowl action bars 12 of being located at driver's seat 21 right sides.On the upper surface (top) and left surface (sides of driver's seat 21 sides) of the handle 11a of dipper action bars 11, be provided with described mandatory down gear switch 16,17.On the other hand, on the left surface (sides of driver's seat 21 sides) of the handle 12a of scraper bowl action bars 12, be provided with the described auxiliary switch 19 that pattern is switched usefulness.The left surface that replaces the handle 12a of scraper bowl action bars 12, this auxiliary switch 19 can be arranged at the upper surface of this handle 12a, the upper surface that perhaps can also be arranged at this handle 12a except left surface (namely, can only be arranged at the upper surface (top) of handle 12a, also can as mandatory down gear switch 16,17, be arranged at upper surface and the left surface of handle 12a).In addition, have in the raise up position of action of indication dipper at dipper action bars 11 and keep the stop mechanism 11b (indicative icon in Fig. 2) of its posture.
As mentioned above, mandatory down gear switch 16,17, auxiliary switch 19 are the switch of button-type, but all are the button of alternative expression in the present embodiment.Therefore, (exist in the situation of the velocity stage of low speed more) in the velocity stage situation of travelling beyond 1 speed, whenever mandatory down gear switch 16,17 some being operated 1 time, just according to this operation signal from controller 136 to transmission control section the 138 output signals that lower category, at every turn to 1 grade of low prompt drop, when operation mandatory down gear switch under 1 grade 16,17, turn back to the velocity stage that Negotiation speed level switch 15 is selected.But when Negotiation speed level switch 15 was selected 1 speed, then no matter have or not mandatory down gear switch 16,17 operation, velocity stage was not from 1 fast speed change.In addition, for auxiliary switch 19, only its operation is just accepted by controller 136 when having selected the E pattern by main switch 18.That is, when selecting the P pattern by main switch 18, driving mode is fixed as the P pattern, though operation auxiliary switch 19, can be from controller 136 to engine control section yet the switching signal of 137 output driving modes, driving mode can not switch to the E pattern yet.At this moment, the maximum speed of motor 131 can increase the driving force of travelling, and can improve max. speed without limits in its limit of power.On the other hand, selecting by main switch 18 in the situation of E pattern, when under steam auxiliary switch 19 being pressed from controller 136 to engine control section 137 output mode switching signals, driving mode switches to the P pattern, turns back to the E pattern when again auxiliary switch 19 being pressed.In the E pattern, the maximum speed of motor 131 is restricted to low speed side, and driving force and max. speed fuel efficiency improve thereby the original maximum of inhibition is travelled.Then also be to be positioned at 1 auxiliary switch 19 of every operation under the state of E pattern at main switch 18, driving mode just switches to P pattern, E pattern, P pattern repeatedly ....
Next, an example of the wheel loader of said structure typically being excavated action describes.
Fig. 8 is the ideograph that the state that digs operation of thing is excavated in expression when packing into the truck etc. such as sand or gravel by wheel loader 100.
As shown in Figure 8, digging when being excavated thing, typically, at first (A) advances to the accumulation body P that is excavated thing (below, referred to as " accumulation body P ") with the degree of for example 2 velocity stages, near accumulation body P.At this moment, main switch 18 is arranged at the E position, and driving mode is chosen as the E pattern in advance.Next (B) operation dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12 and dipper 121 is descended and the opening that makes scraper bowl 122 towards the place ahead, and before being about to insert accumulation body P, press mandatory down gear switch 16 or 17 and to force to lower category from 2 speed be 1 speed.It is that 1 speed is because of the large driving force of travelling of needs in the time will being packed into scraper bowl 122 by the excavation thing that pressure lowers category.
After inserting accumulation body P, next (C) uses the stop mechanism 11b of dipper action bars 11 to keep the dipper vertical motion.The operator leaves dipper action bars 11 rear dippers 121 with hand and also continues the dipper vertical motion thus.In addition, in the dipper vertical motion, thereby will be dug in the scraper bowl 122 by the excavation thing by making 12 actions of scraper bowl action bars make scraper bowl 122 shovel the dress action.When digging this and excavated thing, adjust the driving force of travelling (tractive force) by the plus-minus of entering into of gas pedal 13.At this moment, exist the driving force of travelling not rise to the situation of the larger driving force of travelling of necessary above preferably situation and requirement at the state according to the proterties of being excavated thing, road surface of digging in the operation that is excavated thing,, the operator switches E pattern and P pattern so judging by situation in good time, avoid the road surface to cave in owing to skidding on one side, will by excavation thing be dug scraper bowl 122 on one side.After will being piled up in scraper bowl 122 by the excavation thing like this, operator (D) operates forward-reverse change-over switch 14 and travel direction is switched to the rear, retreating from accumulation body P and leaving, and again travel direction is switched to the place ahead and mobile near the tipping lorry (not shown), operation dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12 and will be excavated thing and drop into the wagon box etc. of tipping lorry.
In addition, as driving mode, select some this situations of E pattern and P pattern, by based on from the operation signal of main switch 18 and auxiliary switch 19 and from the display that controller 136 is exported, be shown on the display part 25 in the place ahead of driver's seat 21.
According to present embodiment, can play following such action effect.
(1) raising of operability
In the situation of the driving force of travelling that temporary needs are large like that as mentioned above, if pressing operation auxiliary switch 19 then driving mode switches to the P pattern, so need to be in digging operation with hand from working rig operating means 20 leave take with main switch 18 handover operations of side instrument face plate 22 as the P pattern, so can guarantee good workability.In addition, can irrespectively immediately driving mode be switched to the P pattern with velocity stage by the pressing operation of auxiliary switch 19, so for for example making in the temporary transient situation about increasing of the driving force of travelling also useful when travelling with 2 speed climbings.In addition, after the operation by auxiliary switch 19 switches to the P pattern with driving mode, if operate again auxiliary switch 19 then can make driving mode turn back to the E pattern.Therefore main switch 18 can be operating as under the state of E pattern, switch arbitrarily driving mode by operator's hobby, can be rapidly and easily carry out the operation that pattern is switched, the flexibly control driving force of travelling.
Here, usually for dipper action bars 11, hold handle 11a or be placed on hand top gently or hold from the top or from laterally holding, have according to situation, operator's hobby and different tendencies.Therefore in the present embodiment, left side with scraper bowl action bars 12 person that is disposed at the Proximity operation, dipper action bars 11 is disposed at the right side far away apart from the operator, and at 2 positions of the upper surface of the handle 11a of dipper action bars 11 and the left surface side of driver's seat 21 sides (namely near) the mandatory down gear switch 16,17 that velocity stage is forced to lower category is set, which mandatory down gear switch 16,17 can both be forced the operation that lowers category.Therefore, in the situation of top handle 11a easily by the hand thumb operative configuration come from the left side of handle 11a in the mandatory down gear switch 17 of handle 11a left surface, in the situation of horizontal (right side) handle 11a, pass through easily the hand thumb operative configuration in the mandatory down gear switch 16 of the upper surface of handle 11a.By such upper surface and the left surface at the handle 11a of dipper action bars 11 2 mandatory down gear switch 16,17 are set respectively, with the operation that irrespectively can both easily lower category of the method for holding with a firm grip of handle 11a.
In addition, when having dug by the excavation thing by scraper bowl 122, need the parallel action that the scraper bowl shovel fills, dipper rises, body advances of carrying out, but on dipper, utilize in the lift operations in the situation of stop mechanism 11b of dipper action bars 11, have the tendency that the operator leaves dipper action bars 11 with hand and hold handle 12a operation scraper bowl action bars 12 from the top.In the operating process of this scraper bowl action bars 12, can require the larger driving force of travelling according to situation in good time, under these circumstances, owing to have the auxiliary switch 19 that pattern is switched usefulness on the scraper bowl action bars 12 in operation, so can keep the state direct control auxiliary switch 19 of hand-held scraper bowl action bars 12, need to hand not left or be changed to another action bars of operation from working rig operating means 20 in order to switch driving mode.And, owing at the left surface of handle 12a auxiliary switch 19 is set, carry out easily the handover operation of driving mode by the thumb that is placed on the right hand on the handle 12a.
Like this, can consider on one side to be excavated thing digging operation actual conditions and the auxiliary switch 19 that mandatory down gear switch 16,17, driving mode switch usefulness is distributed to dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12, on one side be made as by position, number with them and suitably and further improve operability.In addition, by with mandatory down gear switch 16,17 and the driving mode auxiliary switch 19 that switches usefulness distribute to dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12, can so that be not easy the handover operation of mistaken force to lower category operation and driving mode, can suppress maloperation.
Like this, according to present embodiment, can further improve operability.
In addition, during travelling beyond such digging operation etc. in the situation of inoperation working rig operating means 20, the temporary transient situation that improves the driving force of travelling when also existence is travelled when for example climbing, in this case too, because pattern is switched on the auxiliary switch 19 of the usefulness person's that is arranged at the Proximity operation the scraper bowl action bars 12, so that the handover operation of driving mode becomes is easy.This is also useful to guaranteeing good operability.
(2) effect of alternative expression switch
Be made as the alternative expression switch by the auxiliary switch 19 that mandatory down gear switch 16,17, pattern is switched usefulness, each switch 16,17,19 can be selected arbitrarily velocity stage, driving mode with monomer respectively, so can suppress to force to lower category each mechanism of the handover operation of operation and driving mode the space is set, these switches 16,17,19 can be disposed at suitably little the arranging in the space of each handle 11a, 12a of dipper action bars 11, scraper bowl action bars 12.Deploy switch 16,17,19 helps the realization of above-mentioned high operability widely on handle 11a, 12a like this.In addition, these switches 16,17,19 are alternative expression, so with for example in order directly to select each velocity stage respectively a plurality of mandatory down gear switch are set or the E pattern are set and the situation of 2 auxiliary switch that the P model selection is used is compared, by 1 switch just can the Set arbitrarily driving mode, velocity stage, so operation is also simple.
(3) guarantee the identification of driving mode
Because selected driving mode is shown in the display part 25 that monitors panel 24 at any time, so even by the auxiliary switch 19 frequent driving modes that switch, the operator also can suitably confirm driving mode by display part 25.The operator can confirm that suitably driving mode operates on one side on one side thus, can easily carry out the setting operation by the driving mode of oneself intention, for example can suppress when driving mode is the P pattern, take for and selected the E pattern and the driving force of travelling is run counter to the operator when having entered into gas pedal 13 etc. wish rises and cause the maloperation such as road surface depression.
In addition, in above illustrative embodiment, having listed the example of situation of left surface that auxiliary switch 19 that driving mode switches usefulness only is arranged at the handle 12a of scraper bowl action bars 12 is illustrated, but be not limited to this mode, can adopt auxiliary switch 19 is only arranged 1 or the structure of 1 (2) respectively is set at upper surface and left surface at the upper surface of handle 12a.When hypothesis when laterally holding the handle 12a of scraper bowl action bars 12, if driving mode switches the top that the auxiliary switch 19 of usefulness is positioned at the handle 12a of scraper bowl action bars 12, then press by hand thumb easily.In addition, if according to the operator and the method for the holding difference of scraper bowl action bars 12, then just useful as long as auxiliary switch 19 is positioned at upper surface and the left surface both sides of handle 12a of scraper bowl action bars 12.
In addition, illustration in auxiliary switch 19, use the situation of alternative expression switch, but because hypothesis auxiliary switch 19 also can consider to be made as instantaneous formula switch for the operation of the switching usefulness of the temporary transient and short time of driving mode so both can consider the switch that is both button-type.In the situation that adopts instantaneous formula switch, if when having selected the E pattern by main switch 18, auxiliary switch 19 is pressed, then according to this operation signal from controller 136 to engine control section 137 output mode switching signals, only driving mode switches to the P pattern during auxiliary switch 19 is pressed, and driving mode turns back to the E pattern when pressing of auxiliary switch 19 is stopped.
In addition, although the output according to the control signal from controller 136 to engine control section 137, so that the maximum speed of motor 131 is unrestricted when having selected the P pattern, the maximum speed of motor 131 is limited in low speed side when having selected the E pattern, but owing to be positioned at high-speed side as long as the engine peak speed of the P pattern engine peak speed for the E pattern time is compared, so when the P pattern, need not make engine peak speed unrestricted.In addition, example shows the situation that driving mode is E pattern and two patterns of P pattern, but also can prepare the different driving mode more than 3 of the upper limit of engine peak speed.In this case, preferably, 1 auxiliary switch 19 of every operation, driving mode just switches in turn, so that 1 mandatory down gear switch 16 of every operation or 17, velocity stage just changes 1 grade.
In addition, although be to detect fluid torque-converter velocity ratio e by revolution detector 145,146, speed can be arbitrarily than the structure of detecting unit.Although via fluid torque-converter 132, speed changer 133, power transmission shaft 141, wheel shaft 142 rotation of motor 131 is passed to front-wheel 113 and trailing wheel 114, the structure of the driving force of travelling transmission mechanism can be arbitrarily.
In addition, not only with mandatory down gear switch 16,17, can also will also be arranged at the upper surface of handle of action bars and these two positions, side of driver's seat 21 sides as the auxiliary switch 19 of mode selector switch as mentioned above.Same with the operation that lowers category of being undertaken by mandatory down gear switch 16,17, the variable speed operation that is undertaken by auxiliary switch 19 also shares as the operation relevant with tractive force, if auxiliary switch 19 is arranged at 2 positions of handle, then according to operator, situation, can help sand etc. dig operation the time the raising of operability.
In addition, listed the situation that dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12 are arranged at the right side of driver's seat 21 and be illustrated, but also can have the situation in the left side that is arranged at driver's seat 21.In addition, preferably scraper bowl action bars 12 is disposed at driver's seat 21 sides of dipper action bars 11, but also can is the structure that scraper bowl action bars 12 is arranged at the driver's seat side.
At this moment, suppose mandatory down gear switch 16,17 and auxiliary switch 19 in be disposed at the switch thumb manipulation by from upper handle time the as mentioned above of side of the handle 12a of the side of handle 11a of dipper action bars 11 or scraper bowl action bars 12, therefore be disposed at the side of driver's seat 21 sides of handle 11a, 12a.Therefore, in the situation in the left side that dipper action bars 11 and scraper bowl action bars 12 is arranged at driver's seat 21, mandatory down gear switch 16,17 is disposed at upper surface and the right flank of the handle 11a of dipper action bars 11.Equally, in the situation of the side of the handle 12a of the scraper bowl action bars 12 that auxiliary switch 19 is arranged at the left side that is disposed at driver's seat 21, the side that this auxiliary switch 19 is disposed at driver's seat 21 sides of handle 12a is right flank.
