Work vehicle

Abstract

Provided is a work vehicle capable of improving safety by applying a brake by an auto-parking function at an appropriate timing to be brought into a hold state. A work vehicle includes: a traveling wheel and a work machine; a brake mechanism capable of braking the traveling wheel by an activation of an electric actuator; and a control device controlling the activation of the electric actuator, wherein the control device controls the electric actuator to bring the work vehicle into an auto-braking state in which the traveling wheel is maintained in a braked state when an automatic brake engagement condition is satisfied and to release braking of the traveling wheel in the auto-braking state when an automatic brake release condition is satisfied, the brake mechanism is coupled to a fore-and-aft advance/retreat rod configured to advance and retreat in response to operation of a brake pedal, with a fore-and-aft direction defined as a longitudinal direction, and switches between activation and deactivation of a brake in conjunction with a pulling operation by advancing and retreating the fore-and-aft advance/retreat rod, and an electric cylinder being the electric actuator is coupled to the fore-and-aft advance/retreat rod, and when the electric cylinder expands and contracts, the fore-and-aft advance/retreat rod is advanced and retreated to perform automatic brake engagement or automatic brake release regardless of the operation of the brake pedal.
