Abstract: An automatic transmission control for the automatic range of a transmission has a power control valve for selecting a desired gear ratio with a manual control valve operable to set the desired gear selection and a plurality of selector valves automatically operated to set the power control valve dependent upon the transmission output speed and up to a highest gear selection selected by an operator. The action of the selector valves is inhibited in down shift of the transmission as demanded by physical movement of the manual control valve to a lower gear setting until a predetermined transmission output speed is reached to avoid overspeeding of the engine.

Abstract: A crawler tractor includes a main frame, and longitudinallyextending track frames on either side thereof. A generally Tshaped member interconnects the rearward end of each track frame with the main frame, with the oppositely-extending arms of each generally T-shaped member being unequal in length. Each generally T-shaped member may be pivoted to substantially 180* about the remaining arm thereof to vary the lateral position of the associated rearward end of the track frame. An equalizer bar interconnects the main frame and the track frames forwardly of the rearward portions thereof, and means are associated with the equalizer bar and the track frames for varying the lateral positions of the forward portions of the track frames in accordance with the variation of the lateral positions of the rearward portions as set forth above.

Abstract: A differential mechanism suitable for such purposes as coupling the engine of the vehicle to opposite drive wheels utilizes a hydrodynamic fluid coupling and a planetary gear arrangement to provide two different modes of differential action for use at different vehicle speeds. In a first mode for use at low speeds, a mechanical differential action is modified by torque regeneration through the fluid coupling to limit slip of one wheel relative to the other with the slip limiting effect being proportional to the difference of rotational speed of the two wheels. In the second or high speed mode of operation, brought about by discharging the fluid coupling, a purely mechanical differential action is realized.

Abstract: An improved truck for track type tractors having resiliently mounted track roller assemblies. The truck includes an elongated frame journalling sprockets at opposite ends about which an endless track is trained. A plurality of track roller assemblies engage the lower run of the track and are resiliently secured to the frame to cushion vertical movement of the track roller assemblies. A linkage system or, in the alternative, a cable system, interconnects the track roller assemblies and the frame to restrain the track roller assemblies against longitudinal shifting relative to the frame. Depending side members secured to the frame are in sliding contact with opposite ends of each track roller assembly to restrain the same against side-to-side shifting movement.
