Translation of "Gelenkte achse" in English

The steered third axle can have proportional or non-proportional movement.

This is a 10 ton axle.

This surprising agility is made possible by the electrohydraulically steered fourth axle.

FIG. 12 shows a design for an axle that is not mechanically steered from the steering wheel, whose wheels 8 are steerable via steering tie rods 7 and steering knuckle arms 1 .

Lastly, FIG. 13 shows a design corresponding to the fifth embodiment shown in FIGS. 10 a and 10 b, for an axle that is not mechanically steered via a steering wheel.

Thus, this geometry is maintained, regardless of the camber position of wheel 2 that is adjusted by swivelling hub carrier 8, whereby, as FIG. 1 shows, with the use of the wheel suspension for an articulated axle, the intermediate carrier is also swivelled by the steering about its vertical axis 6 as a steering axis.

This Scania R480 8x4 was converted by Beers to a 10x4 by adding a 10 tons steered rear axle.

The three-axle coaches had either a self-steer trailing axle or a third actively steered axle, which ensured extreme maneuverability, for example, for reversing.

It is proposed that an unmanned transport vehicle have at least one driven and at least one steered axle, so that, in connection with a position data receiving unit connected to an electronic controller, it can move by means of its own drive relative to the pertinent position of a harvester, which as a rule is manned.

The tendency to oversteer is increased further if the nonsteered axle is driven and also has to transmit drive forces in addition to the lateral guiding forces.

As understood, vehicles with a second rear axle are known which are steered by lateral force and in which the lateral force steered axle can be locked “where necessary”, i.e. in which the degree of freedom of the steering can be locked.

If the driving state of the vehicle has stabilized again as a result of the control intervention, the lateral force steered axle can be “released” again.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The invention concerns a combination of a self-propelled harvester and a transport vehicle set up to receive crops from the harvester, which has at least one driven and at least one steered axle, wherein the transport vehicle has an electronic control unit which is set up to control the driven and steered axle of the transport vehicle, and the control unit is connected with a receiving unit that is set up to receive position data for the harvester, so that the control unit can be operated to control the transport vehicle to receive crops from the harvester automatically, relative to a position of the harvester.

The 3rd axle is a driven version from Sisu, the other 4 are from Volvo.

In the Netherlands, at Scania Beers B.V. the 5th axle was mounted at the rear of the chassis.

Using the special wheel attachment parts from the 8466 Offroader set it is now possible to build a driven steerable axle.

The regulating device regulates the setpoint at the steered axle associated with it.

This means that the first 3 axles and the tag axle are steerable.

Because of the steering rear axle this vehicle is, despite the 5-axles, still very manoeuvrable.

Here we see the rear tandem, as mentioned above, the last axle is steered.

Braking effort from any wheel is less than 50% of maximum effort recorded from the other wheel on the same axle in case of steered axles

Braking effort from any wheel is less than 50% of maximum effort recorded from the other wheel on the same axle in case of steered axles

For this reason, the aim in many cases is to retain the mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the wheels of the steered axle and to merely add an additional steering angle mechanically.

The steering dynamics can furthermore be improved and tire wear can be reduced with a toe-in of the steered axle that is adapted to the operating conditions (e.g., driving speed) via appropriate additional steering angles.
