A drive system for an automotive vehicle, especially an industrial floor vehicle such as a forklift truck, comprises an internal combustion engine, preferably a diesel engine, whose speed-controlling element (e.g. fuel-injection pump) in connected to a speed-setting member (e.g. a drive pedal) and propels an externally energized direct-current generator which, in turn, is connected to an externally energized direct-current motor driving the load, e.g. at least one wheel of the vehicle. According to the invention, the speed-controlling element of the internal combustion engine is provided with a speed-setting signal generator, the output shaft of the internal combustion engine with an engine shaft-speed signal generator and the output shaft of the direct current motor with a motor shaft-speed signal generator. The signals from the speed-setting signal generator and from the motor speed signal generator are fed to a speed controller whose output is delivered to a power controller while the signals from the speed-setting signal generator and form the engine shaft speed signal generator are delivered to a comparator hose output is also supplied to the power controller which controls the field-coil excitation of the direct current generator. |
