A four-wheel drive work vehicle includes an engine, a pair of right and
left steerable wheels rotatably driven by receiving power from the engine
via a differential mechanism, a pair of right and left non-steerable
wheels rotatably driven by receiving power from the engine via right and
left side clutches and a pivotal cam mechanism for operating a clutch
operating member for controlling the side clutch based on a steered
displacement of the steerable wheels. The pivotal cam mechanism includes
a cam member which is displaced based on the steered displacement and a
cam follower member operably associated with the cam member. The clutch
operating member is displaced via the pivotal cam mechanism by a
predetermined amount in response to a steering operation of the steerable
wheels by an angle exceeding a predetermined angle from a straight
traveling condition and in association with the displacement of the
clutch operating member by the predetermined amount, one side clutch for
one of the non-steerable wheels located on the inner side of the vehicle
turn is automatically disengaged against an engaging urging force.
