ABSTRACT:
An apparatus to automatically regulate the speed of a motor driven vehicle. An actuating member movable between an operative and an inoperative position, preferably into or out of cooperative engagement with the accelerator, is in turn operated by a connecting device. A speed control arrangement drivingly engages the connecting device when the actuating member is in its actuating position to in turn operate that part of the vehicle which controls its speed. A control circuit receives actual and ideal speed signals and emits a difference signal which in turn operates the speed control arrangement to in turn operate the connecting device. A setting arrangement may also be provided which operates only when the actuating member is in its inactive position to receive an actual value signal and to cause the ideal signal to agree with the actual value signal such that when the actuating member moves from the inactive position to its actuating position and while the actuating member is in the actuating position, the ideal speed signal is identical to the actual speed signal which exists when the actuating member changes over from its inactive position to its actuating position.
