    Abstract: A hydraulic excavator loads a load onto a loaded machine. The hydraulic excavator includes a work implement and a controller. The work implement includes a bucket. The controller senses an amount of natural lowering of the bucket in a stand-by state in which the hydraulic excavator waits for entry of the loaded machine and controls the work implement to raise the bucket based on the amount of natural lowering.

    Abstract: A loading machine includes a swing body and work equipment with a bucket. A control device of the loading machine includes a loading target specifying unit that specifies a position and shape of a loading target, an avoidance position specifying unit, and a movement processing unit. The avoidance position specifying unit specifies an interference avoidance position based on the position and shape of the loading target. The movement processing unit outputs an operation signal to drive only the swing body until the bucket reaches the interference avoidance position from a loading position above the loading target, to cause the bucket to move to the interference avoidance position. The movement processing unit outputs an operation signal to drive the swing body and the work equipment after the bucket has reached the interference avoidance position, to cause the bucket to move to an excavation position above an excavation target.

    Abstract: Occurrence of a skid due to revolution of a revolving unit is suppressed. A work machine includes a traveling unit, a revolving unit revolvably mounted on the traveling unit, and a controller that controls operations of the work machine. The controller determines whether or not a skid of the traveling unit has occurred in a revolving operation of the revolving unit during an automatic operation of the work machine. When the controller determines that the skid has occurred, it performs processing for weakening rotational inertial force generated in the revolving operation.

    Abstract: A work machine includes work equipment. A control device of the work machine includes a trajectory generation unit, and an operation signal output unit. The trajectory generation unit generates a target trajectory of the work equipment according to an excavation curve ratio determined in advance. The excavation curve ratio is expressed as a ratio of an excavation depth to an excavation length. The operation signal output unit outputs an operation signal for the work equipment according to the target trajectory.

    Abstract: A distance acquisition unit acquires first distance data that is distance data in an area in which a first reference object installed at an arbitrary position outside a work machine is present. The distance data measured by an in-vehicle distance sensor. A position calculation unit calculates a position of the first reference object in a predetermined coordinate system based on the first distance data. A relationship acquisition unit acquires a positional relationship between the first reference object, and a second reference object of which a position in the coordinate system is known. A calibration unit calibrates, based on the first distance data and the positional relationship, a parameter to be used to measure a position in the coordinate system from the distance data of the in-vehicle distance sensor.

    Abstract: A loading machine includes a swing body and work equipment attached to the swing body. The work equipment has a bucket. A control device of the loading machine includes an operation signal input unit that receives an input of a loading command signal from an operator, and an operation signal output unit. The operation signal output unit outputs operation signals of the work equipment and the swing body to move the bucket to a loading position above a loading target in a case in which the loading command signal is received. The operation signal output unit outputs a dumping operation signal to perform dumping to the bucket when the swing body faces a dump start azimuth direction that is closer to the swing body in a swing direction than an end point azimuth direction in which the swing body faces when the work equipment is positioned at the loading position.

    Abstract: A control device outputs an operation signal of a work equipment and a swing body for moving a work equipment to a loading point when receiving a loading command signal. The control device does not output a dumping operation signal for causing the bucket to dump earth in a case where an azimuth direction in which the swing body faces is within a first region from a starting point azimuth direction to a predetermined reference azimuth direction, the starting point azimuth direction being an azimuth direction in which the swing body faces when the loading command signal is received. The control device outputs the dumping operation signal in a case where the azimuth direction is within a second region from the reference azimuth direction to an end point azimuth direction in which the swing body faces when the work equipment is positioned at the loading point.
