A work machine having a cab coupled to a frame, a steering system coupled to the frame, a controller configured to selectively articulate the steering system, a joystick assembly positioned in the cab and in communication with the controller, a steering wheel assembly positioned in the cab and configured to selectively articulate the steering system, and a steering wheel sensor coupled to the steering wheel assembly and in communication with the controller to identify movement of the steering wheel assembly. Wherein, the controller does not articulate the steering system responsive to movement of the joystick assembly when the steering wheel sensor identifies movement of the steering wheel.

An example valve includes: a pressure compensation spool configured to be subjected to a first fluid force of fluid received at an inlet port of the valve; a sleeve having a cavity and at least one throttling cross-hole; a throttling spool disposed in the cavity of the sleeve and configured to be axially movable therein, wherein the throttling spool blocks the at least one throttling cross-hole when the valve is unactuated; and a pressure compensation chamber, wherein when the valve is actuated, the throttling spool moves in the proximal direction to form a throttling flow area between a distal end face of the throttling spool and an edge of the at least one throttling cross-hole, allowing fluid flow from the inlet port to the pressure compensation chamber, thereby causing a second fluid force to be applied on the pressure compensation spool, allowing flow to an outlet port of the valve.

A dual mode control system for a work vehicle includes a hydraulic system configured to drive a loader assembly and a dozer assembly coupled to the work vehicle. The hydraulic system includes a fluid delivery system comprising a plurality of flow paths fluidly coupled to a hydraulic pump. The hydraulic system includes a valve assembly configured to regulate diversion of fluid into a first and a second hydraulic cylinders coupled to the fluid delivery system to adjust the loader assembly, or into a third cylinder coupled to the fluid delivery system to adjust the dozer assembly. The dual mode control system also includes a controller operably coupled to the valve assembly, and one or more user interfaces coupled to the controller to enable an operator to provide inputs to cause the controller to adjust the valve assembly, and to thereby adjust the loader assembly or the dozer assembly.

An assembly of a servo pump and a hydraulic motor. The assembly has a housing which contains the pump and the motor. The motor has a rotating body which rotates under the motive power of a pressurised motor liquid flow. The motor has a high pressure region which receives the pressurised motor liquid flow, and a low pressure region through which the motor liquid flow leaves the motor. The pump also has a rotating body. The pump has a low pressure region which receives servo liquid flow to be pumped by its rotating body, and a high pressure region through which pressurised servo liquid flow leaves the pump. Each rotating body is mounted on a respective journal.

A vehicle includes a hydraulic actuator configured to move an implement relative to the chassis, a hydraulic motor configured to propel the vehicle, a drive pump fluidly coupled to the hydraulic motor, a charge pump configured to provide a flow of pressurized fluid, and a valve assembly fluidly coupled to the charge pump. The valve assembly is configured to (a) direct a first portion of the flow of pressurized fluid to the drive pump, the first portion of the flow having a first flow rate and (b) direct a second portion of the flow of pressurized fluid to the hydraulic actuator, the second portion of the flow having a second flow rate. The valve assembly includes a valve element that is configured to vary at least one of the first flow rate or the second flow rate based on a pressure at a position upstream of the valve element.

A compressed air supply installation for operating a pneumatic installation, especially an air suspension installation of a vehicle, includes a compressed air supply unit, a compressed air port towards the pneumatic installation, a venting port towards the surroundings, a first pneumatic connection between the compressed air supply and the compressed air port, the first pneumatic connection having an air drier and a shut-off valve, and a second pneumatic connection between the compressed air port and the venting port. The shut-off valve is a pneumatically pilot-controlled check valve.

The work vehicle includes: a working device; an auxiliary machine; and a priority valve that is switched between a normal position for directing pressure oil from an accessory pump toward the auxiliary machine and a merging position for directing the pressure oil from the accessory pump toward the working device. The work vehicle includes a control device that holds the priority valve in the normal position in case either the forward direction or the reverse direction which is indicated by a forward reverse operating device and a travel direction of the work vehicle do not match each other, and that switches the priority valve to the merging position in case either the forward direction or the reverse direction which is indicated by the forward reverse operating device and a travel direction of the work vehicle match each other and an operating device is in an operated state.

Saturation of a secondary system pressure circuit (18) of a hydraulic system (4) of a motor vehicle transmission is earlier, in that an excess amount of oil from a primary system pressure circuit (16) of the hydraulic system (4) is not directed to a suction charging (40), but rather into the secondary system pressure circuit (18). This can take place via a system pressure valve (9) for the primary system pressure circuit (16), which is configured for this function.

A passive fluidic valve for fixed flow rate distribution comprising: a hollow valve body; a valve member for blocking a passage to one of the two outlets; and communications to impose the pressure of the upstream and downstream cavities at the ends of the valve member. The valve body further comprises: an inlet; a first outlet comprising a first restriction delimiting an upstream cavity and a downstream cavity; a second outlet comprising a second restriction delimiting an upstream cavity and a downstream cavity; and a first and a second cavity. The valve member further comprises: a first end in the first cavity delimiting a first and a third chambers, and a second end in the second cavity delimiting a second and a fourth chambers.

An open center (OC)-open center load sense (OCLS) conversion valve and hydraulic circuits therewith configured to control flow from a hydraulic pump to multiple hydraulic functions. The conversion valve includes cartridge, load sense, pump, first function supply, first function return, and downstream ports. When an OC cartridge is inserted in the cartridge port, regardless of load sense, the pump and first function supply ports are connected and the first function return and downstream ports are connected. When an OCLS cartridge is inserted in the cartridge port and load sense is detected, the pump and first function supply ports are connected and the first function return and downstream ports are connected. When an OCLS cartridge is inserted in the cartridge port and load sense is not detected, the pump, first function return and downstream ports are connected.
