COMPONENT COMBINATION FOR A HYDROSTATICALLY DRIVEN VEHICLE

摘要

A hydrostatically driven vehicle includes an engine operating at a first speed and operably connected to a variable displacement pump in fluid communication with a hydraulic circuit. The pump includes a rotating swashplate being adapted to operate at selective angles, which dictate pump displacement ranging from zero to a maximum displacement. The pump is capable of providing a pump flow rate at the first speed when the pump swashplate is set to the maximum displacement, wherein the pump flow rate is greater than the maximum flow rate that may be received by the hydraulic circuit.
