CONTROL MECHANISM FOR TRAVELING CRAWLER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize enhancement of driving operation property and simplification of a control structure such as a shift member (25) and a steering member (28). SOLUTION: In the crawler traveling vehicle, the shift member (25) for driving left and right traveling crawlers (2) in the same direction at the same speed; and the steering member (28) of the left and right traveling crawlers (2) are provided. A vehicle speed sensor (118), (119) for detecting the speed of the left and right traveling crawlers (2); a steering angle sensor (113) for detecting an operation amount of the steering wheel (19); and a shift sensor (111) for detecting an operation position of a shift lever (73) are provided. The speed of the left and right traveling crawlers (2) is automatically controlled so as to become a turning radius determined by the operation amount of the steering wheel (19).
