专利汇可以提供Hydrostatic transmission control system专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且An improved control system for a hydrostatic transmission includes an anti-stall system for preventing overloading of an engine which drives the hydrostatic transmission. The anti-stall system senses the speed at which the engine is operating, the input to output speed ratio of the transmission as indicated by the displacement of one unit of the hydrostatic transmission, and the setting of a throttle for the engine. The anti-stall system utilizes these three inputs to regulate the pressure of control fluid conducted to a speed control valve. The speed control valve is selectively operable to vary the pressure of control fluid conducted to a pressure responsive control motor which adjusts the displacement of a unit of the hydrostatic transmission. The anti-stall system varies the pressure of the control fluid conducted to the speed control valve with variations in the fluid pressure conducted to the control motor from the speed control valve. However in the event of an impending stalling of the engine, the anti-stall system reduces fluid pressure conducted to the speed control valve. The speed control valve opens in response to this decrease in pressure to quickly decrease the fluid pressure to which the control motor is exposed. This effects operation of the control motor to decrease the output speed of the hydrostatic transmission and thereby reduce the load on the engine.,下面是Hydrostatic transmission control system专利的具体信息内容。
