摘要 |
The invention concerns a device for recording and reading the itinerary travelled through by a vehicle and in particular an automobile vehicle such as an agricultural machine. The device is adapted to reproduce on an indicator band a trace of the path followed by the vehicle over a given surface so as to enable the operator to follow, with fidelity, in the course of a second passage of the vehicle, the trace of the preceding passage which permits, for example in the case of spraying, a rational treatment of the surface to be treated in strictly parallel strips with no omission or overlapping of zones. The device comprises a programmer constituted by the indicator band which travels at a speed which is proportional to the speed of the vehicle in front of a movable recording element which is controlled by the steering of the vehicle and reacts in accordance with the variations in the steering. The device further comprises a device for reading the recorded program and a device for indicating and displaying the successive directions assumed by the vehicle.
