    Abstract: A stroke operation calibration control device for a hydraulic cylinder includes: movable portions; hydraulic cylinders; a stroke sensor measuring a stroke length of the hydraulic cylinder; a reset sensor measuring a reset reference point at which a measurement value of the stroke length obtained by the stroke sensor is reset; a stroke end detection process unit detecting a stroke end position of the hydraulic cylinder; a calibration process unit calibrating the measurement value of the stroke length upon the detection of the reset reference point and/or the stroke end position; a malfunction detection unit outputting an error when the stroke length is in the predetermined measurement range; and a control unit prohibiting the reset until the stroke length has passed the reset reference point at power input time.

    Abstract: An earthmoving machine includes a work implement, a distance calculation unit, and a hydraulic cylinder control unit. The work implement includes a boom, an arm, and a bucket. The distance calculation unit calculates a distance between a monitoring point in the bucket and design topography representing an aimed shape of a land grading target. The hydraulic cylinder control unit outputs a command signal for lowering the boom when the distance between the monitoring point and the design topography is equal to or smaller than a prescribed value and when the bucket is expected to move in such a direction that the monitoring point moves away from the design topography as a result of an operation of the arm.

    Abstract: A work vehicle includes: a hydraulic operation apparatus for operating an actuator; a main controller configured to generate a command current in accordance with an amount of operation of the operation apparatus; an electromagnetic proportional control valve configured to generate command pilot pressure in accordance with the command current; and a main valve configured to adjust a flow rate of hydraulic oil for operating the actuator based on the command pilot pressure. The electromagnetic proportional control valve is provided in a pilot oil passage that connects a pilot pump and a main valve, and configured to utilize hydraulic pressure supplied from the pilot pump to generate command pilot pressure. The operation apparatus is provided in an operation apparatus oil passage that is different from the pilot oil passage.

    Abstract: A control system for a work vehicle includes at least one sensor, an operating device, and a controller. The operating device includes at least one operating member. The controller is programmed to control a work implement of the work vehicle based on signals from the at least one sensor and the operating device. The controller is further programmed to use the signals to obtain a distance between the work implement and a design terrain which represents a target shape of a work object, and to determine whether a surface compaction determination condition indicating that work performed by the work implement is surface compaction work is satisfied. The controller executes a surface compaction control in which a velocity of the work implement toward the design terrain is limited in response to the distance between the work implement and the design terrain when the surface compaction determination condition is satisfied.
