  • PROGRESSIVE STEERING SYSTEM FOR AN ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20210053537
    Abstract: A progressive brake steering system that includes a steering shaft, a steering arm attached to the steering shaft and a spring mechanism that couples the steering arm to a first actuation pushrod of a first brake master cylinder and a second actuation pushrod of a second brake master cylinder. Rotating the steering shaft in a first direction rotates a first side of the steering shaft towards a first spring of the spring mechanism to compress the first spring against the first actuation pushrod of the first brake master cylinder to generate a first brake fluid pressure. Rotating the steering shaft in a second direction rotates a second side of the steering shaft towards a second spring of the spring mechanism to compress the second spring against the second actuation pushrod of the second brake master cylinder to generate a second brake fluid pressure.
