[0030] [Figure 1] FIG. [Diagram 2] FIG. 4 is a left side view showing the arrangement of an inverter and the like. [Diagram 3] FIG. [Figure 4] FIG. [Diagram 5] FIG. [Figure 6] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a configuration of a connection portion. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0031] The embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, unless otherwise specified, the direction of the arrow F in the drawing is "forward", the direction of the arrow B is "backward", the direction of the arrow L is "left", and the direction of the arrow R is "right". Also, the direction of the arrow U in the drawing is "upward", and the direction of the arrow D is "downward".
[0032] [Overall configuration of the tractor] The tractor of this embodiment will be described below. As shown in Fig. 1, the tractor has left and right front wheels 10, left and right rear wheels 11, and a cover member 12.
[0033] The tractor also includes a machine body frame 2 and a driving section 3. The machine body frame 2 is supported by left and right front wheels 10 and left and right rear wheels 11.
[0034] The cover member 12 is disposed at the front of the vehicle body. The driver's section 3 is provided behind the cover member 12. In other words, the cover member 12 is disposed in front of the driver's section 3.
[0035] The driving section 3 has a protective frame 30, a driving seat 31, and a steering wheel 32. An operator can sit in the driving seat 31. This allows the operator to get into the driving section 3. The left and right front wheels 10 are steered by operating the steering wheel 32. The operator can perform various driving operations in the driving section 3.
[0036] The tractor is equipped with a driving battery 4 (corresponding to the "battery" according to the present invention). The cover member 12 is configured to be swingable about an opening / closing axis Q along the left-right direction of the vehicle body. This allows the cover member 12 to be opened and closed. When the cover member 12 is in a closed state, the driving battery 4 is covered by the cover member 12.
[0037] As shown in Fig. 2, the tractor includes an inverter 14 and a motor M. The driving battery 4 supplies power to the inverter 14. The inverter 14 converts DC power from the driving battery 4 into AC power and supplies it to the motor M. The motor M is then driven by the AC power supplied from the inverter 14.
[0038] 2 and 3, the tractor is equipped with a hydrostatic continuously variable transmission 15 and a transmission 16. As shown in Fig. 3, the hydrostatic continuously variable transmission 15 has a hydraulic pump 15a and a hydraulic motor 15b.
[0039] The hydraulic pump 15a is driven by rotational power from the motor M. When the hydraulic pump 15a is driven, the rotational power is output from the hydraulic motor 15b. The hydrostatic continuously variable transmission 15 is configured so that the speed of the rotational power is changed between the hydraulic pump 15a and the hydraulic motor 15b. The hydrostatic continuously variable transmission 15 is also configured so that the gear ratio can be changed steplessly.
[0040] The rotational power output from the hydraulic motor 15 b is transmitted to the transmission 16 . The rotational power transmitted to the transmission 16 is changed in speed by a gear-type speed change mechanism of the transmission 16 and distributed to the left and right front wheels 10 and the left and right rear wheels 11 (corresponding to the "running device" of the present invention). As a result, the left and right front wheels 10 and the left and right rear wheels 11 are driven.
[0041] 2 and 3, the tractor is equipped with a mid PTO shaft 17 and a rear PTO shaft 18. The rotational power output from the motor M is distributed to the hydraulic pump 15a, the mid PTO shaft 17, and the rear PTO shaft 18. This causes the mid PTO shaft 17 and the rear PTO shaft 18 to rotate.
[0042] If a working device is connected to the mid PTO shaft 17 or the rear PTO shaft 18, the working device is driven by the rotational power of the mid PTO shaft 17 or the rear PTO shaft 18. For example, as shown in Fig. 2, in this embodiment, a grass cutting device 19 is connected to the mid PTO shaft 17. The grass cutting device 19 is driven by the rotational power of the mid PTO shaft 17.
[0043] [About the configuration of the driving battery] As shown in Figure 4, the driving battery 4 provided on the tractor body includes a power storage unit 4A for storing electric power, a battery cover 4B for housing the power storage unit 4A, and an upper cover 4C provided on top of the battery cover 4B and covering a number of cooling fans 51 that cool the power storage unit 4A, etc.
[0044] As shown in Fig. 6, the front wall 4Bf of the battery cover 4B is provided with a thick portion 41 that is thicker than other portions of the battery cover 4B. The surface of the thick portion 41 extends in the vertical and horizontal directions of the body. The thick portion 41 is made of a separate member from the battery cover 4B and is made of an aluminum plate-shaped member.
[0045] 5 and 6, the thick portion 41 is supported by the battery cover 4B via a mounting member 42. The mounting member 42 is fastened to the front wall portion 4Bf by a plurality of bolts. The thick portion 41 is fastened to the mounting member 42 by a plurality of bolts.
[0046] A front portion of the thick portion 41 is provided with a plurality of connection portions 43 to which a harness H (corresponding to "electrical wiring" according to the present invention) for inputting and outputting power of the driving battery 4 is detachably connected. The plurality of connection portions 43 are arranged, in order from the right side of the vehicle body, as a connection portion 43a for connecting a harness Ha for charging the power supplied from an external power source (not shown) to the power storage unit 4A, a connection portion 43b for connecting a harness Hb for outputting power from the power storage unit 4A to the inverter 14, a connection portion 43c for connecting a harness Hc for outputting power from the power storage unit 4A to a DC-DC converter (not shown), and a connection portion 43d for connecting a harness Hd for inputting power for driving the cooling fan 51.
[0047] Here, the DC-DC converter adjusts the magnitude of the DC voltage of the power storage unit 4A and outputs it. The power output from this DC-DC converter is input to the connection unit 43d via the harness H, for example, and is used to drive the cooling fan 51.
[0048] The connection portion 43a, the connection portion 43b, the connection portion 43c, and the connection portion 43d are each fastened and fixed by a plurality of bolts.
[0049] As shown in FIG. 6, a through hole 44 is formed in the thick portion 41 to pass the wiring passing through the inside of the connection portion 43c into the inside of the battery cover 4B, and further, an opening is formed in the mounting member 42 at a position corresponding to the through hole 44.
[0050] The connecting portion 43c is provided with a sealant 47 on a surface facing the thick portion 41. The sealant 47 is configured to abut so as to surround the outer periphery of the insertion hole 44 in the thick portion 41 when the connecting portion 43c is fastened and fixed to the thick portion 41. With this configuration, even if water gets between the connecting portion 43c and the thick portion 41, the water is blocked by the sealant 47, and it is possible to prevent the water from getting into the battery cover 4B through the insertion hole 44. The connecting portions 43a, 43b, and 43d are also provided with a configuration similar to that of the connecting portion 43c.
[0051] [Configuration of the pressure adjustment unit] As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, a pressure adjusting portion 45 for adjusting the air pressure inside the battery cover 4B is provided on a surface of the thick portion 41 along the vertical direction.
[0052] The pressure adjustment unit 45 has a membrane filter that allows air to pass through but does not allow water to pass through. For example, when the temperature of the electricity storage unit 4A drops and the air pressure inside the battery cover 4B drops, pressure is applied to the membrane filter from the outside air side due to the air pressure difference with the outside air pressure. The pressure adjustment unit 45 is configured so that the mesh of the membrane filter is expanded by the pressure from the outside air side, allowing air to pass through.
[0053] The pressure adjusting portion 45 is provided below the connection portion 43c of the thick portion 41, and the pressure adjusting portion 45 and the connection portion 43c are arranged to be aligned in the up-down direction. The connection portion 43c is configured to be connected to the harness Hc in a state where the connected harness Hc extends downward. With this configuration, the pressure adjusting portion 45 is configured to be provided at a position aligned in the horizontal direction with the harness Hc connected to the connection portion 43c, and the pressure adjusting portion 45 and the harness Hc overlap when viewed in the front-rear direction.
[0054] 6, the thick portion 41 has a recess 46 recessed from an outer surface 41a of the thick portion 41 toward the inside of the battery cover 4B. A through hole 46a is formed at the bottom of the recess 46, penetrating to the inside of the battery cover 4B. An opening is formed in the mounting member 42 at a location corresponding to the through hole 46a. This configuration allows air to move between the inside and outside of the battery cover 4B via the pressure adjustment unit 45.
[0055] The outer side surface 45a of the pressure adjusting portion 45 and the outer surface 41a of the thick portion 41 are configured to be at substantially the same position in the front-rear direction of the aircraft body. In addition, the pressure adjusting portion 45 and the outer surface 41a of the thick portion 41 are configured to have a gap S therebetween.
