Hydrostatic transmission device ensuring good driveability
The present disclosure is directed to a hydrostatic transmission apparatus including a pump, a first motor, and a second motor having two elementary motors. Each of the motors having first and second enclosures for feed/discharge. In work mode and in road mode, the second enclosure of the first elementary motor of the second motor and the first enclosure of the first motor are connected together in series, the second enclosure of the first motor being connected to the second port of the pump, and the second enclosure of the second elementary motor of the second motor is connected to the second port of the pump. In work mode, the first enclosure of each of the two elementary motors of the third motor is connected to the first port of the pump.
Closed hydraulic circuit
The present invention relates to a closed hydraulic circuit between a hydraulic pump and a hydraulic motor that are connected to one another via working lines, a flushing pump being provided in order to feed a pressure medium into the working lines, and an output connection being provided in order to discharge excess pressure medium from the working lines. At least one hydraulic consumer, which is provided to convert at least some of the volume flow discharged from the hydraulic circuit into mechanical power, is connected downstream of the output connection.

Working machine
A working machine includes a prime mover, a traveling motor a speed shifting valve configured to shift an output speed of the traveling motor between a first speed and a second speed faster than the first speed, an actuation valve to change a hydraulic pressure applied to the speed shifting valve, a brake shiftable between a braking state to brake the traveling motor and a braking releasing state to release the braking, and a controller configured or programmed to control the actuation valve and the brake, and being capable of activate a warm-up mode. The controller, when activating the warm-up mode, shifts the brake into the braking state, and controls the actuation valve so as to make the hydraulic pressure applied to the speed shifting valve equal to or greater than a value corresponding to the second speed.

FLUID SYSTEM FOR A CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION
A fluid system for a continuously variable transmission includes a first pump, a first actuation unit, a first line section, a second actuation unit, and a second line section. The first pump has a first sub-pump and a second sub-pump. The first actuation unit is assigned to a first disc set of the continuously variable transmission and the second actuation unit is assigned to a second disc set of the continuously variable transmission. The first line section fluidically connects the first pump to the first actuation unit and the second line section fluidically connects the first pump to the second actuation unit. The second sub-pump has a first connection that can be selectively fluidically connected to the first actuation unit via the first line section, or the second sub-pump has a second connection that can be selectively fluidically connected to the second actuation unit via the second line section.
Automatic driveline calibration for an agricultural machine
By using various feedback data on a sprayer system, such as engine speed, wheel speed, sensed temperatures and/or sensed pressures, an onboard logic controller can be used to fine tune parameters of the driveline system in an automatic calibration process. In one aspect, a controller can drive up engine speed and manipulate electrical current being sent to coils of propel pumps and/or wheel motors as current reaches a point where there is no more change in wheel speed as detected by the system, thereby achieving a. calibration setpoint. Additionally, during the automatic calibration process, the machine as a whole can be monitored with respect to several sensors, such as pressures, temperatures, and the like, so that if any parameter being monitored is out of a predetermined range, the calibration can be stopped and not set.
Hydraulic drive for the feed rollers of a head of a complete timber harvester
A hydraulic drive for feed rollers of a head of a complete timber harvester includes two radial piston motors coupled for conjoint rotation to the feed rollers. One radial piston motor has only one displacement volume and the other radial piston motor has two displacement volumes, between which it is possible to switch. A tree trunk clamped between the feed rollers can thus be moved at two speeds. At the higher speed, pressure medium circulates under a control pressure in the second displacement volume of the switchable radial piston motor.

Propel system with active pump displacement control for balancing propel pump pressures in agricultural vehicles
A propel system of an agricultural vehicle has an active pump displacement control system for equalizing or balancing pressure output of hydrostatic pumps of a tandem pump propel arrangement. The active pump displacement control system may include a pressure sensor(s) for determining output pressure of hydrostatic pumps and use the output pressure values within a feedback loop to provide coil input values of coils that control displacement of the hydrostatic pumps so that the pressure outputted by the hydrostatic pumps can be equalized in real-time while on the go during use of the agricultural vehicle.
