VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: automatics. SUBSTANCE: system has main traffic line with units for performing operations "ahead", "back", "right", "left", "speed reset", "stop" according to mark, disposed at any place of main traffic line. Code identifiers in form of code masks are drawn close to marks onto support plate. The identifiers represent order decimal number of junction point in binary code. System has also tracking detectors, code identifier detectors and wheel drive detectors, marks separating units, code identifier memory unit, code comparing unit, command memory unit, modes of motion units, units for switching tracking detectors and code identifier detectors, alarm unit, control board and command counter. Reliability of performing of operation is significantly improved, probability of motion along false route is reduced. If the worst comes to the worst, false motion is probable till achieving the next mark, where motion must be terminated and alarm signal is generated. EFFECT: improved reliability of programmed motion. 15 dwg
