  • Hydraulic circuit for a hydraulically driven vehicle
    Patent number: 4376371
    Abstract: A hydraulic circuit for a hydraulically driven vehicle comprising a pair of variable displacement hydraulic pumps, a pair of hydraulic motors each connected with the respective variable displacement pumps in a closed loop, and a straight run compensator valve connected between the respective closed loops for equalizing fluid pressure in both closed loops when the vehicle is set in a straight run thereby assuring a steady straight run of the vehicle irrespective of the difference in displacement of the respective variable displacement pumps.
    Type: Grant

  • Hydraulic circuit for a hydraulically driven vehicle
    Patent number: 4324098
    Abstract: A hydraulic circuit for a hydraulically driven vehicle comprising a pair of variable displacement pumps each driven by a common engine, a pair of variable displacement motors each connected with the respective variable displacement pumps in a closed loop circuit and driven thereby, a fixed displacement charge pump driven by the engine, and a pair of shuttle valves each connected in parallel with the respective closed loop circuits and has formed therein a neutral position and two offset positions wherein in the neutral positions of the shuttle valves both the closed loop circuits are connected with each other through the shuttle valves.
