Abstract: A control system includes one or more processing circuits comprising one or more memory devices coupled to one or more processors. The one or more memory devices are configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to acquire speed data regarding current speeds of tractive elements of the vehicle from tractive element speed sensors of the vehicle, determine speed references for the tractive elements to perform autonomous driving operations where the speed references indicate speeds at which each of the tractive elements should rotate to accommodate the autonomous driving operations, and control at least one of a driveline or a brake system of the vehicle to selectively alter the current speeds of the tractive elements of the vehicle based on the current speeds and the speed references to accommodate the autonomous driving operations.

Abstract: A hydraulic system for a three-point hitch includes at least one hitch cylinder and a first flow path. The hydraulic system includes a hitch valve fluidly coupled to the at least one hitch cylinder via the first flow path, wherein the hitch valve is configured to control a flow of hydraulic fluid to the at least one hitch cylinder. The hydraulic system includes a second flow path fluidly coupled to the first flow path at a first location between the at least one hitch cylinder and the hitch valve, wherein the second flow path is fluidly coupled to a reservoir for the hydraulic fluid. The hydraulic system includes a first check valve disposed along the second flow path between the first flow path and the reservoir, wherein the first check valve is configured to keep air from entering the hydraulic system via the second flow path from the reservoir.

Abstract: An off-road vehicle includes a driveline, a control system, and a braking system. The driveline provides driveline power and driveline brake power to a first tractive assembly and/or a second tractive assembly. The control system stores vehicle information, determines driving instructions based on environment data, and determines speed references for tractive elements of the first and second tractive assemblies based on the driving instructions and the vehicle information. The braking system includes brakes and a braking subsystem. The brake subsystem operates the brakes to provide brake power to one or more components of the first and/or second tractive assemblies. The brake controller controls the brakes to selectively provide the brake power and the control system controls the driveline to selectively provide the driveline power and the driveline brake power based on current speeds of the tractive elements and the speed references to accommodate the driving instructions.

Abstract: A quick response steering system with a steering device that steers a vehicle. An electro-hydraulic steering circuit couples to the steering device. The electro-hydraulic steering circuit includes a load sensing pump that pumps hydraulic fluid to a steering cylinder. The load sensing pump increases or decreases output from the load sensing pump in response to a pressure differential between a first fluid line and a second fluid line. A precharge valve diverts hydraulic fluid from the first fluid line to the second fluid line. A controller couples to the steering device and the precharge valve. The controller opens the precharge valve in response to input from the steering device to change a first pressure of the first fluid line to increase an output of the load sensing pump.
