CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A ROAD TRAIN

摘要

The invention concerns a control system (1) for a road train (3) consisting of a tractor vehicle (4) and a trailer (5), provided with a transmission assembly (2) capable of being electronically controlled. For manual operation of the road train (3), the driver of the vehicle can introduce, by means of a hand-actuated device (13) installed in the tractor vehicle, a desired driving mode (FW) from which a standardized movement vector (BV) is produced. A control device (19) installed in the tractor vehicle, which produces in output, based on the movement vector (BV) in input, control signals (SS) for controlling the transmission assembly (2), is coupled, for control signal (SS) transmission, with the transmission assembly (2) which processes the control signals (SS) to convert the desired driving mode (FW). In order to improve the functionality of the control system (1), said system comprises a trailer coordinating device (20) installed in the tractor vehicle, whereby at least one trailer-specific real input value (IW) can be read and which transmits the real value (IW) to the control device (19), the control device (19) producing the control signals (SS) based on the trailer-specific real value(s).
