Abstract

A body hoisting state display device to be mounted on a dump truck includes: an angle detection unit that detects a rotation angle of the body with respect to the frame; a seating detection unit that detects whether or not the body is seated on the frame; a calculation unit that causes an inclination angle of the body at which the body is rotated with respect to the frame from a seated state of the body to be calculated, based on the rotation angle detected by the angle detection unit, as a ratio to an angle of a rotatable range that is defined between the seated state and a state in which the hydraulic cylinder is stopped at the position short of the position at which the hydraulic cylinder is extended to the maximal extent; and a display control unit that causes the ratio of the inclination angle of the body that is calculated by the calculation unit to be displayed on a display screen.
