Abstract
A combine is a work vehicle that autonomously travels on the basis of a preset travel route, and is provided with an autonomous travel allowance switch, which is an autonomous travel allowance operation member that allows autonomous travel, and a control device that functions as an autonomous travel control part that controls autonomous travel based on the travel route. The autonomous travel control part executes autonomous travel based on the travel route while the autonomous travel allowance switch is being operated (pressed).
Claims10
An autonomous driving method of a work vehicle that executes an autonomous travel based on a preset travel route, the autonomous driving method comprising:
- an operating step for operating an autonomous travel allowance operation member that allows for the autonomous travel;
- a travel route creation step for creating the travel route having an allowance operation member-nonrequiring route and an allowance operation member-requiring route;
- and
- an autonomous travel control step for controlling the autonomous travel which is based on the travel route,
- wherein
- the autonomous travel control step, in the allowance operation member-nonrequiring route, allows and executes the autonomous travel regardless of the operation of the autonomous travel allowance operation member, and
- the autonomous travel control step, in the allowance operation member-requiring route, determines whether or not the autonomous travel allowance operation member is being operated, and allows and executes the autonomous travel while operating the autonomous travel allowance operation member, and does not allow nor execute the autonomous travel while the autonomous travel allowance operation member is not operated.
A work vehicle that executes an autonomous travel based on a preset travel route, the work vehicle comprising:
- an autonomous travel allowance operation member for allowing the autonomous travel;
- a travel route creating part for creating the travel route having an allowance operation member-nonrequiring route and an allowance operation member-requiring route;
- and
- an autonomous travel control part for controlling the autonomous travel which is based on the travel route,
- wherein
- the autonomous travel control part, in the allowance operation member-nonrequiring route, allows and executes the autonomous travel regardless of the operation of the autonomous travel allowance operation member, and
- the autonomous travel control part, in the allowance operation member-requiring route, determines whether or not the autonomous travel allowance operation member is being operated, and allows and executes the autonomous travel while operating the autonomous travel allowance operation member, and does not allow nor execute the autonomous travel while the autonomous travel allowance operation member is not operated.
An autonomous driving system provided with a work vehicle that executes an autonomous travel based on a preset travel route, the autonomous driving system comprising:
- an autonomous travel allowance operation member for allowing the autonomous travel;
- a travel route creating part for creating the travel route having an allowance operation member-nonrequiring route and an allowance operation member-requiring route;
- and
- an autonomous travel control part for controlling the autonomous travel which is based on the travel route,
- wherein
- the autonomous travel control part, in the allowance operation member-nonrequiring route, allows and executes the autonomous travel regardless of the operation of the autonomous travel allowance operation member, and
- the autonomous travel control part, in the allowance operation member-requiring route, determines whether or not the autonomous travel allowance operation member is being operated, and allows and executes the autonomous travel while operating the autonomous travel allowance operation member, and does not allow nor execute the autonomous travel while the autonomous travel allowance operation member is not operated.
