Fender support structure and work vehicle including same

A fender support structure comprising:

• a first rotation body that rotates in accordance with a steering of a front wheel;
• a second rotation body that is relatively rotatable with respect to the first rotation body and that supports a fender covering the front wheel;
• a holding mechanism that is accommodated in the first rotation body and the second rotation body and that generates a holding force to hold a relative rotational position of the second rotation body relative to the first rotation body at a predetermined initial position;
• and
• a regulating mechanism that regulates a rotation of the second rotation body in accordance with a steering of the front wheel against the holding force when a steering angle of the front wheel becomes a predetermined value or more in a left direction and a right direction;
• wherein the holding mechanism includes:
• a torsion spring having a main body wound in a coil shape having an axis substantially parallel to a rotation shaft of the second rotation body and both ends of the torsion spring are formed so as to protrude radially from the main body;
• a first fixed portion fixed to the first rotation body and engageable with one of the both ends;
• and
• a second fixed portion fixed to the second rotation body and engageable with the other of the both ends;
• and
• wherein the both ends are formed so as to protrude radially inward from the main body.
