摘要:
A transmission is disclosed for a wheeled vehicle. The transmission has a rotary input (14) to be driven by a rotary power source, e.g. an internal combustion engine. It has a rotary output (16) for driving a vehicle wheel. A transmission unit is coupled between the rotary input and the rotary output to transfer drive between them at a speed ratio which is continuously variable through a range which includes both negative ratios (providing a reversal of rotational direction between the rotary input and the rotary output), positive ratios (in which the rotary input and the rotary output rotate in the same direction), and a geared neutral ratio, in which the rotary output is stationary. In accordance with the invention, the transmission further comprises a brake (20) for braking the rotary output. The brake is provided with a control arrangement adapted to apply it when the speed ratio is set to the geared neutral ratio and to release the brake as the speed ratio is adjusted away from the geared neutral ratio.
摘要:
A hydraulic circuit for the hydrostatic transmission of a vehicle, said hydraulic circuit comprising at least one hydraulic motor, two main ducts, a parking brake having brake means, brake release control means suitable for feeding the brake release chamber from a first brake release fluid source, and means for connecting said chamber to a unpressurized reservoir. The circuit has a single short-circuit and selection valve having two main ports connected to respective ones of the two main ducts, and two selection ports connected respectively to the brake release chamber and to the brake release duct, and control means for controlling said valve, which control means are suitable for causing the valve to take up a first configuration in which the main ports are mutually isolated while the selection ports are interconnected, and for causing it to take up a second configuration in which the main ports are interconnected while the selection ports are mutually isolated.
摘要:
If a hydraulic motor (23) (traveling wheel (27)) is rotated (or skidding) at high rate, and a hydraulic motor (24) is hardly rotated, a detection controller (68) compares the rotational speeds of both hydraulic motors (23, 24). Then the rotation detected by the rotation detectors (66, 67) to detect the traveling wheel (27) to be skidding, and moves a piston (71) to allow a negative brake (40) to give a braking force to the hydraulic motor (23), and rotate the hydraulic motor (24). In this way, this invention can release the traveling wheel from skidding without the use of a flow dividing valve.
摘要:
A braking system (S) for braking a rotor (5, 9, 106) relative to a stator (1C, 1′C), said system comprising two series of brake disks (102, 104) secured respectively to the stator and to the rotor and disposed in a disk enclosure (100). The system further comprises a brake piston device (108, 114, 116) urged continuously in the braking direction by resilient return means (118). The piston device is urged in the brake release direction by feeding a brake release chamber (120) with fluid, and it is urged in the braking direction by feeding a braking chamber (124) with fluid. The braking system includes a cooling device for cooling the brake disks (102, 104) by means of fluid flow, which device is provided with a cooling duct (140) branching from the brake release duct (122) which feeds the brake release chamber (120) and communicating with the disk enclosure (100). It is provided with means (148) for limiting the quantity of cooling fluid tapped by the cooling duct (140) from the brake release duct (122).

摘要:
A means for automatically preventing a motor, which is hydraulically driven by a pump and mechanically drives an inertial load from a pumping action of the motor caused by being driven by said inertial load, comprising blocking a reverse power transmission. The blocking may be done by brake disc fixed to a transmission shaft or by declutching a pair of clutching members arranged across the shaft. The automatic actuation of the blocking action may be either mechanically or electrically effected.
