ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic drive and braking system for vehicles having a pair of positive displacement pumps connected to drive axles attached to the wheels of the vehicle. Hydraulic fluid is supplied to the positive displacement motors from a reservoir by means of a variable displacement pump. The flow to the motors is controlled by a flow divider connected to the steering linkage. Braking is provided by blocking the return flow of the positive displacement motors. An antiskid system senses wheel rotation and responsive thereto prevents the blocking of the return flow of the positive displacement motors.
