A laminated panel is provided with: a core panel having a vertical wall portion which extends in a direction which intersects with a panel surface, and a flat portion which is formed to extend along the panel surface from an end portion of the vertical wall portion; a pair of face plates which sandwich the core panel from both sides; and a structural material in which a rectangular cross-section portion which sandwiches the flat portion of the core panel between the rectangular cross-section portion and one of the face plates is disposed. The structural material is provided with peripheral edge structural materials which are disposed along a pair of opposing edge portions of a peripheral edge of the laminated panel, and connecting structural materials which extend in a direction which intersects with the peripheral edge structural materials.

Laminated panel

A multi-layer panel is provided, which may eliminate local portions having low strength and low rigidity and may suppress a stress concentration to increase rigidity and strength. The multi-layer panel includes a core panel; a pair of face plates sandwiching the core panel from both sides; and a beam member. The core panel has a standing portion extending in a direction intersecting with a surface of the multi-layer panel, and a flange formed in a manner of extending from a most outside end of the standing portion along a first one of the face plate. The beam member includes a portion with the rectangular cross section disposed so as to clamp the flange of the core panel with the first face plate.

Multi-layer panel

A slope having a main plate for changing position between a low position and a high position, and a control unit for controlling position change of the slope, are included. The control unit includes: a first mounting detection means which detects a state of being mounted or a state of not being mounted by a wheelchair with regard to the main plate; a second mounting detection means which detects a state of being mounted or a state of not being mounted by a wheelchair with regard to a ground side plate; a third mounting detection means which detects a state of being mounted or a state of not being mounted by a wheelchair with regard to a vehicle side plate; and a ground detection means which detects whether the end of the ground side plate at the rear side of a vehicle is in contact with a ground surface.

Mounting device for object to be mounted

A mounting device includes: a main plate on which a wheelchair is to be mounted; a vehicle side plate provided between one end of the main plate and a vehicle body; a ground side plate provided between another end of the main plate and a ground surface; and first to third rotating shafts provided between the vehicle body and the vehicle side plate, and between each of the plates. A slope is configured to include the main plate, the vehicle side plate, the ground side plate and the first to third rotating shafts. The slope is provided so that the main plate is displaced between a low position and a high position by rotating the first to third rotating shafts using a drive mechanism.

A mounting device includes a slope including: a main plate for mounting a wheelchair; a vehicle-side plate provided between a vehicle and an edge of the main plate and having at least one plate; and a ground to be contacted-side plate provided between a surface of ground to be contacted and the other edge of the main plate and having at least one plate. The main plate can be raised and lowered between low and high positions when the ground to be contacted-side plate is in contact with the ground. The mounting device is also provided with: an electric winch that can tow the wheelchair along the slope; a slope driving mechanism that drives the main plate; and a control unit that, on the basis of the drive state of one of the slope driving mechanism and the electric winch, controls the drive state of the other.

A riding-type working machine includes a machine frame defining an engine compartment in a front portion thereof, an engine mounted in the engine compartment, a steering column in the form of a framework vertically mounted on the machine frame behind said engine, and a radiator mechanism for cooling the engine, the radiator mechanism being disposed in the steering column.
