ABSTRACT:
A combined brake and steering system for a vehicle having hydraulic braking and hydraulic steering. A single pump is utilized to supply both the brakes and steering. Two priority valves are arranged to assure that the brakes take precedence and receive an approximately constant flow of hydraulic fluid subject to a maximum pressure. The steering mechanism also normally receives a constant flow, subject to a maximum pressure which usually is different from the other maximum pressure.
