Abstract:
An electronic anti-skid device comprising:a vehicle having a hydrostatic transmission and a plurality of driven wheels, each of said plurality of driven wheels having a rotational speed and a hydraulic motor, said hydrostatic transmission having a pump; a plurality of output regulators coupled respectively to the hydraulic motors; an angle direction sensor means for sensing a direction of said vehicle; an electronic computer means; a sensor means for constantly measuring an output of said pump of said hydrostatic transmission, said sensor means for determining volume and flow direction and temperature of said output, said electronic computer means for using data from said angle direction sensor and from said sensor means so as to constantly calculate a theoretical rotational speed of each of said plurality of driven wheels, said electronic computer means for controlling said plurality of output regulators at a value slightly greater than or approximately equal to a theoretical hydraulic output corresponding to the theoretical rotational speed of each of said plurality of wheels.
