  • Publication number: 20030201134
    Abstract: A hydraulic driving apparatus for a wheeled vehicle including a prime mover and a pair of wheels comprises a stepless transmission mechanism for traveling which transmits driving force from the prime mover to the drive wheels so as rotate the drive wheels in a common forward or rearward direction, and a steering transmission mechanism including a hydrostatic stepless transmission including a variable hydraulic pump and a hydraulic motor fluidly connected to each other, wherein a rotational force of the hydraulic motor is divided into opposite directive rotations transmitted to the respective drive wheels. A switching valve is disposed between the variable hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor in the steering transmission mechanism.

  • Patent number: 6564891
    Abstract: A power take-off casing (47) including therein a rear-PTO shaft (12) and a transmission mechanism (50) therefor is mounted on an outer surface of a rear wall (3c) of the transmission casing (3) disposed between left and right rear wheels (4) which constitute drive wheels for a working vehicle, and a gear (52) constituting an input member of the transmission mechanism is operatively connected to a drive mechanism (46) for a mid-PTO shaft (9) which extends forwardly from the inside of transmission casing through a front wall (3a) thereof. A clutch (60) for selectively cutting-off the drive of the rear-PTO shaft is provided preferably such that it couples the gear selectively to a drive gear (58) which is rotatably mounted on the mid-PTO shaft. In a working vehicle in which a transmission casing is disposed between left and right front wheels constituting the drive wheels for the vehicle, a power take-off casing having a front-PTO shaft is mounted on an outer surface of a front wall of the transmission casing.

  • Publication number: 20020134183
    Abstract: In a transmission for a working vehicle, a PTO input shaft is located with its rotational axis extending in a vehicle lengthwise direction substantially at a widthwise center of a transmission case along a vehicle width direction. A running power input shaft is located with its rotational axis extending in the vehicle lengthwise direction substantially at the same position as that of the PTO input shaft along the vehicle width direction and at a lower side of the PTO input shaft. The transmission case provides an accommodation space for accommodating a differential gear unit, which space is displaced to a first lateral side of the vehicle along the vehicle width direction. A running power transmission shaft is located on the front side of the space with its axis extending in the vehicle lengthwise direction, and the running power input shaft, the running power transmission shaft and the differential gear unit are interlocked to each other via a running power gear train.

  • Patent number: 4001636
    Abstract: An AC drive type display apparatus including a display panel having groups of transverse electrodes and vertical electrodes which are disposed in cross form across a discharge gap and having cross points which are made luminescent by applying an AC sustaining drive voltage, a turn-on signal and turn-off signal. A drive circuit including transistors dispoed in a matrix is provided and has means for commonly connecting the emitters or bases of the transistors in each transverse line of the matrix and means for connecting the emitters or the bases which are commonly connected, through a first diode to a sustaining drive source. A first selective switch circuit for applying the turn-on signal or the turn-off signal by selectively driving the transverse line by connecting it to the emitters or the bases which are commonly connected is provided and means are provided for commonly connecting the bases or the emitters in each vertical line of the matrix.

  • Patent number: 3989974
    Abstract: A gas discharge display panel is disclosed for displaying images by selectively making luminescent cross points of main electrodes arranged to form the matrix through a discharge gap. The display includes a switching operation part which comprises auxiliary electrodes which are arranged in parallel to the main electrodes and to which a turn-on or turn-off pulse is applied and switching electrodes which cross the auxiliary electrodes to form the matrix through the discharge gap so as to select predetermined cross points of the auxiliary electrodes. The switching operation part is incorporated in the panel together with a display part comprising the main electrodes to form the matrix through the discharge gaps whereby switching circuits for switching each of the main electrodes which are complicated and expensive can be improved.
