METHOD TO CONTROL DIFFERENTIALS OF MULTIDRIVE WHEELED VEHICLES Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B60K23/04 G01M17/00 F16H48/20 

FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to methods of control of differential locking of multidrive wheeled vehicles and it can be used at designing of systems to control tractive forces of driving wheels of multidrive vehicles and carrying out investigations of wheeled vehicles. proposed method of control of differential locks comes to locking of differential for definite periods of time at threshold values of mismatching of mechanical parameters of driving wheels intercoupled by said differential and unlocking differential at expiration of definite of time or at achievement of threshold value of steerability index. Unlocking of differentials at achievement of threshold value of steerability index is carried out individually, starting from differential whose locking has greater effect on steerability of wheeled vehicle.

EFFECT: enlarged range of control of traction forces on driving wheels to increase cross-country capacity and traction and speed properties at provision of required steerability of multidrive wheeled vehicles.
