Abstract: The present invention relates to a tracked vehicle comprising at least two drivable crawler chains, a sensor device for detecting the actual speed of each of the at least two crawler chains, and a control device for controlling the driving speeds of the at least two crawler chains, wherein the control device includes a curve control module for adjusting different driving speeds for the at least two crawler chains for cornering in dependence on a steering signal of a steering signal transmitter. According to a first aspect it is proposed that with an individual drive of the at least two crawler chains the still operable other drive motor no longer follows the target rotational speed specified for the normal operation upon failure of a drive motor, but follows the sensorially detected chain or drive train speed of the failed drive by taking account of the steering signal and of the speed difference between the left and right chain sides, which is needed for the commanded curve.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a self-propelled surface milling machine, preferably in the form of an asphalt-milling machine, snow-milling machine or Surface Miner, having a mill roll which is drivable about a rotational axis, and a mill roll drive comprising an electrical motor which is accommodated within the mill roll, wherein stator and rotor of the electrical motor are accommodated within a dust and air-tightly sealed motor housing. It will be suggested to associate a cooling device comprising a closed circuit liquid cooling system to the electrical motor located within the milling roll body. Due to the high heat capacity of a suitable coolant, such as oil or mixed water and glycol small volume flows and hence small conduit cross sections will be sufficient. On the other hand, any incorporation of dust into the mill-roll drive as well as any formation of dust by discharge air can be avoided by the closed form of the circuit liquid cooling system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electric tracklaying gear and the use thereof for a self-propelled working machine, preferably for a construction or earth-moving machine or a surface mining machine such as Surface Miner, which includes an endlessly circulating track chain which can be driven by a crawler drive that is arranged inside the path of circulation of the track chain. It is proposed to associate a cooling device with a closed fluid cooling circuit to the electric motor of the crawler drive arranged in the interior of the path of circulation of the track chain. Due to the high thermal capacity of a suitable cooling fluid such as oil or water-glycol mixture small volumetric flow rates in the fluid cooling circuit and hence small conduit cross-sections are sufficient. On the other hand, due to the closed formation of the fluid cooling circuit any dust input into the crawler drive and also any generation of dust by exhaust air can be avoided.

According to the invention an operating circuit for steady-state operation is provided, comprising a jumper for bridging the frequency converter following starting or reaching steady-state operational status. Optionally, the jumper is switchable to activate or inactivate the frequency converter of the start-up circuit, respectively.
