    摘要: A hydraulic pump/motor includes: a cylinder block rotating about a rotation axis; a piston in a cylinder bore; and a valve plate facing a cylinder port. The valve plate includes: a high pressure port through which hydraulic oil discharged from the cylinder port flows; a low pressure port through which the oil to be sucked into the cylinder port flows; a region disposed between the high and low pressure ports in a circumferential direction of the rotation axis and including a top dead center position facing the cylinder port of the cylinder bore in which the piston moved to a top dead center is disposed; and a residual pressure release port between the top dead center position and the low pressure port in the region. The residual pressure release port includes first and second ports disposed at a positions different from each other in the radial direction of the rotation axis.

    摘要: A camera captures an image of a region including at least a portion of an operating member and generates image data indicative of the image. A controller acquires the image data from the camera. The controller determines whether an operation of the operating member by an operator is an intentional operation or an unintentional operation based on the image. When the operation of the operating member by the operator is determined to be the intentional operation, the controller controls a work machine according to the operation of the operating member. When the operation of the operating member by the operator is determined to be the unintentional operation, the controller invalidates the operation of the operating member.

    摘要: A distance calculation unit calculates a bucket distance that is a distance between a point on a bucket and a target design surface representing a target shape of an excavation target. An intervention control unit calculates an intervention control amount to suppress a speed of work equipment such that the bucket does not intrude on the target design surface based on the bucket distance. An attachment control unit calculates an attachment control amount to rotate the bucket around an attachment axis such that an edge of the bucket and the target design surface approach each other in a parallel state. An attachment limiting unit limits rotation of the bucket around the attachment axis such that the bucket distance is not increased by a movement of the work equipment based on the intervention control amount and the attachment control amount.
