Systems and methods for controlling slip of vehicle drive members
First Claim
1. A system for controlling slip of vehicle drive members, the system comprising:
- a power train includinga plurality of drive members, anda hydraulic transmission configured to supply torque to at least one of the drive members,wherein a magnitude of the torque is related to fluid flow in the hydraulic transmission; and
a controller configured to control the fluid flow in the hydraulic transmission,wherein the controller is configured to receive a signal indicative of a steering command and a signal indicative of a parameter related to pressure in the hydraulic transmission, andwherein the controller is configured to control slip of the at least one drive member based on the signal indicative of a steering command and the signal indicative of a parameter related to pressure.

Abstract
A system for controlling slip of vehicle drive members is disclosed. The system includes a power train including a plurality of drive members and a hydraulic transmission configured to supply torque to at least one of the drive members. A magnitude of the torque is related to fluid flow in the hydraulic transmission. The system further includes a controller configured to control the fluid flow in the hydraulic transmission. The controller is configured to receive a signal indicative of a steering command and a signal indicative of a parameter related to pressure in the hydraulic transmission. The controller is further configured to control slip of the at least one drive member based on the signal indicative of a steering command and the signal indicative of a parameter related to pressure.
