  • Patent number: 10054219
    Abstract: A joystick control is disclosed for a change speed gearbox having a support body, an axle rotatably supported by the body, an operating lever connected to the axle by a pivot pin having an axis perpendicular to that of the axle such that the operating lever is rotatable about the axis of the axle and is pivotable relative to the axle about the axis of the pivot pin, two actuating members rotatably supported by the axle and arranged one on each side of the operating lever, each actuating member being connectible to a respective Bowden cable to extend and retract the cable in response to rotation of the actuating member about the axle, and mating formations on the operating lever and the actuating members operative to engage the operating lever selectively for rotation with one or the other of the actuating members in dependence upon the direction in which the operating lever is pivoted relative to the axle about the pivot pin.

  • Patent number: 8251462
    Abstract: A trailer braking device having a high-pressure main hydraulic circuit of a tractor to which a trailer is attached; to a hydraulic circuit of a master brake cylinder of the tractor; and a trailer brake valve having a driver connected hydraulically to the high-pressure main hydraulic circuit and to the hydraulic circuit. The driver of the device has a piston which is subjected to a first action by an independent circuit that is activated, for example, by the stop lights and a second action produced by the operator, such as a foot acting on a brake pedal, on the hydraulic circuit of the master brake cylinder.
