ABSTRACT:
An integrated power transmitting system includes a hydrostatic transmission and a mechanical transmission both being driven by an engine. The output of the hydrostatic transmission and the mechanical transmission are both selectively coupled to a work system through a final output shaft. A sensing arrangement senses the transmission input speed, the output of the hydrostatic transmission and the speed of the final output shaft and delivers the signals to the microprocessor. The microprocessor processes the received signals on a continuous basis and delivers a first set of command signals to control operation of the hydrostatic transmission and a second set of control signals to selectively control forward and reverse direction and high and low clutches within the mechanical transmission. A planetary arrangement within the mechanical transmission sums the speed of the hydrostatic transmission with a full range forward and reverse gear mechanism. This arrangement provides a smooth and continuous change in the speed of a machine in both the forward and reverse directions throughout its entire speed range.
