A hydrostatic bridge including two hydraulic motors each having two distinct operating cylinder capacities, both motors sharing an overall casing. The bridge has four main ducts of a first type (feed or exhaust) and two main ducts of a second type (exhaust or feed). The overall casing has three upstream ducts respectively connected to the first and second main ducts of the first type themselves connected to distribution ducts of the first motor, to third and fourth main ducts of the first type, themselves connected to distribution ducts of the second motor, and to first and second main ducts of the second type, themselves connected to distribution ducts of both motors. The bridge includes an anti-spin device capable of selectively reducing the flow rate in the first upstream duct and in the second upstream duct for selectively correcting spin of the first and second motors.

Hydrostatic assembly with controlled spin

The invention relates to a hydraulic circuit for supplying at least one motor incorporating 'disengageable' pistons, comprising a fluid distributor valve obturating, in one of its positions, the supply and exhaust conduits of said motor. According to the invention, the fluid distributor valve comprises a shuttle valve presenting two inlet connections and one outlet connection, and, in said position, establishes communications of the supply conduit with one of the inlet connections, of the exhaust conduit with the other inlet connection, and of a conduit evacuating fluid towards a reservoir with said outlet connection of the shuttle valve. One application of the invention is the production of a vehicle translation circuit comprising a 'disengageable' assistant motor.

Hydraulic circuit for supplying at least one hydraulic motor

The present invention relates to a vehicle equipped with wheels coupled to fluid motors, restrictions being placed on supply or exhaust conduits of the motors. According to the invention, the vehicle comprises front and rear wheels, each coupled to one of the motors, each motor being of a reversible type, while a restriction is placed on the supply conduit of each motor coupled to the rear wheels, another restriction being placed on the exhaust conduit of each motor coupled to the front wheels. One application of the invention is the production of a wheeled vehicle equipped with a simple and efficient anti-skid system for its wheels.
