METHOD OF INCREASING VEHICLE CROSS-COUNTRY CAPACITY AND DEVICE FOR DECREASING SLIPPING OF ONE DRIVING WHEELS Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; drive mechanisms of vehicle driving wheels. SUBSTANCE: slipping of one of driving wheels is decreased by application of torque created in brake mechanism of slipping wheel. Value of torque is changed depending on change in resistance to vehicle movement. Device has brake drive lever connected through equalizer drive lever and tie-rods with equalizer connected through working cables with wheel brake mechanisms. Device has additionally control levers and working levers hinge-mounted on equalizer and connected with working cables. Control levers and working levers are intercoupled by control tie-rods. EFFECT: increased cross-country capacity of vehicle, simplified design of drive system of driving wheels. 3 cl, 2 dwg
