ABSTRACT:
An all wheel steering system for heavy vehicles such as airport and municipal service vehicles. A rear wheel lockout is provided to ensure safe operation by preventing rear steering above a pre-set vehicle speed. The system can be adjusted so that rear steering range angles can be varied to fit particular applications. The steering control involves the use of a closed loop position feedback circuit in which a change in the relative polarity of the command and feedback RVITs results in switching of the system between various modes.
