A work vehicle such as a tractor including an engine, a battery, a hydraulic continuously variable transmission, and an electric cylinder, and a power transmission mechanism. The hydraulic continuously variable transmission changes an output of the engine, and changes an angle of a movable swash plate to change a gear ratio thereof. The electric cylinder is driven by electric power supplied from the battery at least while the engine is stopped. With the power generated in the electric cylinder and transmitted, the power transmission mechanism changes the angle of the movable swash plate of the hydraulic continuously variable transmission.

Work vehicle

A device has a storage and an information processor. The storage stores presentation information received from a server apparatus. The information processor reads the presentation information from the storage, and controls screen display on a notifier, based on the read presentation information. The screen display on the notifier includes map information of a predetermined region, information about at least one unit representing an occupied part in a unit ownership building that exists in the predetermined region or a building that exists in the predetermined region and that is a building other than a unit ownership building, and shaking-intensity information for each unit.

Server apparatus that determines whether shaking is due to an earthquake

A load control apparatus receives information regarding the consumed electric power in load devices and the generated electric power by a power generator. The apparatus includes a control unit, which controls a device based on the received information. A determination unit determines whether the device can execute a predetermined process with surplus electric power in target period from the present until a predetermined period of time elapses. An execution unit controls the device such that when it is determined that the abovementioned process can be executed, a control signal is provided to cause the process to start.

Load control apparatus, program, method, and system

The power management system includes: a power management device for managing power to be used by multiple power loads; and a large power-using power load. The large power-using power load is defined as a power load which shows a power consumption larger than a difference between allowable power and an upper limit power smaller than the allowable power when operating at a maximum power consumption. The power management device calculates remaining available power available for the large power-using power load, from the total power consumption of the multiple power loads and the upper limit power, and notifies the remaining available power to the large power-using power load. The large power-using power load starts to operate under a condition that its power consumption is equal to or less than the remaining available power notified by the power management device.

Power management system, power management device, and large power-using power load

A controller includes a request acquisition unit that receives an operation permission request from a device, a calculation unit that calculates margin electric power derived from measurement by a measurement unit and an upper limit electric power, and a suppression unit that instructs the device to lower electric power consumption. When the margin electric power is less than the required electric power, the controller suppresses electric power consumption in devices in lower priority order stored in a priority storage unit within the suppression unit, such that electric power consumption increase in the management area may remain within the margin electric power. Then the controller issues the requesting device permission-or-denial for the operation, from the calculation unit.

Power management device and power management system

A vehicle-mounted apparatus comprising: a communication unit which is connected to the charger/discharger and exchanges information with the charger/discharger; an input unit receiving various types of information; a storage unit which uses the information acquired through the input unit and the communication unit to store: a vehicle ID identifying the vehicle; a charger/discharger ID identifying the charger/discharger which can be connected to the vehicle; and history information indicating a history of charges and discharges for the vehicle, which are related to one another; and a presentation unit presenting to a user of the vehicle, the history information stored in the storage unit in relation to a pair of the vehicle ID and the charger/discharger which charges/discharges the vehicle and is identified by the charger/discharger ID.

Vehicle-mounted apparatus, charger/discharger, and charge/discharge system

A working vehicle with an HST in which over-rotation of a hydraulic pump in the HST or the pump input shaft thereof is prevented when a main clutch is disconnected during a run. When a main clutch connection/disconnection detection means detects the disconnection state of the main clutch during a run, a control means judges whether a vehicle speed detected by a vehicle speed detection means is at least a set speed or not, and if the vehicle speed is at least the set speed, the movable swash plate of the hydraulic pump in an HST is controlled to sustain it at the current inclination angle.
