    摘要: A hydraulic steering arrangement (1) including a supply port arrangement having a supply port (2) and a return port (3), a working port arrangement having two working ports (4, 5), a supply flow path (7) between the supply port (2) and one of the working ports (4, 5), a return flow path (9) between the other of the working ports (5, 4) and the return port (3) and a valve arrangement having a spool/sleeve set, wherein the supply flow path (7) includes a supply orifice (A4) and the return flow path (9) comprises a return orifice (A5). Such a hydraulic steering arrangement should give a comfortable feeling when used in connection with an articulated vehicle. To this end a variable damping orifice (Adp) is arranged downstream the supply orifice (A4) and upstream the return orifice (A5).

    摘要: A hydraulic steering arrangement (1) is disclosed. The hydraulic steering arrangement (1) includes a supply port arrangement (P, T) having a pressure port (P) and a tank port (T), a working port arrangement having two working ports (L, R), a main flow path (2) having a main orifice (A1) and at least one further orifice (A2, A3, A4) downstream the main orifice (A1), the main flow path (2) being arranged between the pressure port (P) and the working port arrangement (L, R), a return flow path (4) arranged between the working port arrangement (L, R) and the tank port (T), a measuring motor (3), an amplification flow path (6) having an amplification orifice (AU) and being arranged between the pressure port (P) and the working port arrangement (L, R), and an adjustable pressure source (9) connected to the pressure port (P) and having a load sensing port (18), wherein a main drain orifice (Adrain) is connected between the main flow path (2) down-stream the main orifice (A1) and the return flow path (4). Such a steering arrangement should have the possibility of dynamic steering with a simple construction. To this end a dynamic main orifice (A1-dyn) is connected between the load sensing port (18) and the main flow path (2) downstream the main orifice (A1), and a dynamic drain orifice (Adrain-dyn) is connected between the load sensing port (18) and the return flow path (4), which dynamic drain orifice (Adrain-dyn) is open when the dynamic main orifice (A1-dyn) is closed.

    摘要: A steering system for controlling an agricultural machine having a pair of front wheels and a pair of rear wheels includes a controller, an operator steer input for communicating a steer command, a steer input sensor for detecting and outputting the steer command to the controller, a primary differential steering system for operably controlling the pair of front wheels, and a secondary steering system for operably controlling the pair of rear wheels. The secondary steering system includes a first actuator for controlling a first rear wheel and a second actuator for controlling a second rear wheel. The primary differential steering system is controlled based on the steer command. The controller outputs a control signal to operably actuate the first and second actuators at a non-linear steering gain rate as a function of the steer command.

    摘要: A hydraulic steering arrangement (1) comprising a supply port arrangement having a pressure port and a tank port, a working port arrangement having two working ports (L, R), a mechanical steering unit (3) connected to a steering wheel (2) and being arranged between the supply port arrangement and the working port arrangement (L, R), supply valve means (12) having a connection to the pressure port and to the working port arrangement (L, R) and being controlled by a controller (10), and a steering wheel sensor (9) connected to the controller (10) is described. Such a steering arrangement could allow a comfortable feeling for the driver. To this end the steering wheel sensor (9) is mounted in a position of minimum play to steering wheel (2) and steering wheel sensor (9) and detects a beginning of a movement of the steering wheel (2), wherein the controller (10) actuates the supply valve means (12) upon beginning of the movement, and the supply valve means (12) supply hydraulic fluid to the working port arrangement (L, R).
