Abstract: A traction wheel for a track roller unit of an agricultural working machine has at least one drive wheel for driving an elastic track belt of the track roller unit. The at least one drive wheel comprises supporting arms which extend from an axis of rotation of the drive wheel in the radial direction in the manner of spokes and a gap is formed radially on the outside, at least between two adjacent supporting arms in each case. At least one friction element is situated, in particular detachably, radially outwardly on a supporting arm for non-positive interaction with the track belt.

Abstract: A tracked vehicle, in particular an agricultural tracked vehicle, has a crawler track assembly including at least one track-laying unit. The track-laying unit has at least two ground drive wheels and a track belt guided over the ground drive wheels. An evaluation device is provided, which is configured for carrying out a determination of the state of wear of at least one track belt of the crawler track assembly with the aid of an image-based comparison of at least two components of the tracked vehicle, at least one of which is a component of the track belt.

Abstract: An agricultural working machine has a first axle and a second axle, multiple ground-engaging means disposed at the first and second axles that are at least partially drivable by a drive engine or are steerable using steering-knuckle steering, a steering-angle sensor disposed at a steerable ground-engaging means for detecting a set steering angle (?th) and a steering brake for the selective braking of one or more drivable, ground-engaging means for steering support. A control unit controls and regulates the at least one steering brake based on a steering angle (?th, ?tat) or a slip angle (?) of at least one of the steerable ground-engaging means.

Abstract: A transmission arrangement includes a hydrostatic transmission in which a hydrostatic unit functioning as a pump is hydraulically connected to a hydrostatic unit functioning as a motor in order to transfer drive power. The arrangement is configured with structure for damping hydraulic pressure fluctuations. The structure is assigned to a hydraulic line connecting at least one of the hydrostatic units.

Abstract: An agricultural vehicle having a full-track design with a vehicle structure on each side of which, relative to a vehicle longitudinal axis, a track roller unit is arranged. The track roller unit has roller unit body to which a front deflector roll, a rear deflector roller and a plurality of yoke-type track rollers arranged therebetween are coupled, and an endlessly closed track belt that wraps around the rollers/roller. All the rollers are suspended with respect to the roller unit body in that assigned to a roller or a group of rollers in each case is a spring element, which is acted upon by fluid, for the suspension thereof with respect to the roller unit body.

Abstract: A steerable crawler track for an agricultural utility vehicle such as a tractor or a self-propelled harvesting machine has a left-side track roller unit, a right-side track roller unit, a differential having a transmission input driven by an engine, a first transmission output for driving the left track roller unit, and a second transmission output for driving the right track roller unit and a hydraulic transmission having a variable transmission ratio (i). The transmission outputs of the differential are coupled to one another via the hydraulic transmission such that the ratio of the rotational speeds (nl, nr) of the transmission outputs are influenced by changing the transmission ratio (i) of the hydraulic transmission.

Abstract: A valve formed with a valve sleeve formed with at least a first port, at least a second port and a pressure-compensated valve tappet movable between a closed position and at least one open position. The valve tappet is formed as two parts that move relative one another and are acted upon relative to one another by a hydrostatic pressure present at the first port.

Abstract: A crawler vehicle has a body and at least one left and one right track roller unit. The track roller units are connected to the body via a machine axis.

The first and the second supporting arms of each roller unit are mounted to be pivotable independently of one another about the machine axis.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a coupling for mounting an implement and a load-controlled hydraulic pump that runs continuously with an engine of the vehicle. The pump draws hydraulic fluid from a low-pressure line region and feeds the hydraulic fluid into a high-pressure line region. The high-pressure line region has a high-pressure connection and the low-pressure line region has a low-pressure connection for supplying the mounted implement. A shutoff valve for blocking the flow of hydraulic fluid to the high-pressure connection is connected upstream of the high-pressure connection in the high-pressure line region.

Abstract: An agricultural tractor includes a pair of track assemblies including rubber treads with track bars, a front wheel assembly and a controller. The track assemblies are interconnected by respective front and rear axles extending substantially perpendicular to a direction of travel. The controller automatically controls a load imposed on the front wheel assembly in order to control the load imposed at the front axle of the track assemblies to minimize rubber tread wear.
