The pressures Y1 and Y2 are proportionally output by the main driver's cabin pilot control valve 6-4 and the deputy driver's cabin pilot control valve 6-5. The variable cylinder 6-2 outputs to the variable mechanism through the A port or the B port of the variable reversing valve 6-3, realizes the forward or reverse variable displacement output of the variable pump 6-1, and the A port and the B port of the variable reversing valve 6-3 are connected with the variable cylinder 6-2 through throttle valve I 6-25 and throttle valve II 6-26 respectively.

At this time, the vehicle needs to be operated in the main driver room. When it is needed to operate in the deputy driver room, the main deputy driver switch valve 6-24 is first switched to the left position, the compressed air from the air source 6-28 reaches the valve 1 port and the valve 2 port to reach the pilot port K of the pneumatic reversing valve I 6-6, so that the pneumatic reversing valve I 6-6 is switched to the left position, and the pressure oil reaches the P port of the deputy driver pilot control valve 6-5 through the P port and the B port, and the P port of the main driver pilot control valve 6-4 returns to the tank through the A port and the T port of the pneumatic reversing valve I 6-6 to unload.

[0064] When the vehicle is controlled to move forward in the main driver, the main driver pilot control valve 6-4 is pushed forward, the pressure oil reaches the 1 port after being decompressed through the valve P, and reaches the Y1 port of the variable reversing valve 6-3 through the 1 port and the 3 port of the shuttle valve II 6-8, and pushes the variable reversing valve 6-3 to switch to the left position, at this time, the pressure oil from the gear pump I 6-11 reaches the left side of the variable cylinder 6-2 through the P port and the A port of the valve, and the variable pump 6-1 starts to work in the forward direction. When the vehicle is controlled to move backward, the main driver pilot control valve 6-4 is pushed backward, the pressure oil reaches the 2 port after being decompressed through the valve P, and reaches the Y2 port of the variable reversing valve 6-3 through the 1 port and the 3 port of the shuttle valve I 6-7, and pushes the variable reversing valve 6-3 to switch to the right position, at this time, the pressure oil from the gear pump I 6-11 reaches the right side of the variable cylinder 6-2 through the P port and the B port of the valve, and the variable pump 6-1 starts to work in the reverse direction.

When the vehicle is driven backward, the co-driver's pilot control valve 6-5 is pushed backward, and the pressure oil is discharged through the P port of the valve and reaches the 1 port, and then reaches the Y1 port of the variable directional valve 6-3 through the 2 and 3 ports of the shuttle valve II 6-8, and pushes the variable directional valve 6-3 to the left position, at this time, the pressure oil from the gear pump I 6-11 reaches the left side of the variable cylinder 6-2 through the P and A ports of the valve, and the variable pump 6-1 starts to work in the forward direction.

When the vehicle is driven in the co-driver's cabin, the variable pump 6-1 works in the reverse direction, and the vehicle is driven forward. The vehicle driving is realized by the variable pump 6-1 driving the variable motor 6-13 to rotate in the forward and reverse directions.

[0068] The P port of the main driver's parking brake valve 6-16 is connected with the accumulator 6-15, the outlet A is connected to the P port of the co-driver's parking brake valve 6-17, the A port of the co-driver's parking brake valve 6-17 is connected to the P port of the pneumatic directional valve II 6-18, the outlet A of the pneumatic directional valve II 6-18 is connected to the parking brake 6-30, and the port is also connected with the pressure gauge II 6-20, the pressure gauge III 6-21 and the pressure sensor II 6-22.

[0069] The 1 port of the main driver's emergency brake valve 6-27 is connected with the air source 6-28, and the outlet 2 is connected to the 1 port of the co-driver's emergency brake valve 6-29, and the 2 port of the co-driver's emergency brake valve 6-29 is connected to the K port of the pneumatic directional valve II 6-18.

[0070] The outlet of the gear pump II 6-12 is connected to the P port of the charging valve 6-14, the A port of the charging valve is connected to the accumulator 6-15, and the high-pressure oil generated by the gear pump II 6-12 charges the accumulator 6-15 through the charging valve 6-14, and the charging pressure is adjusted by the charging valve 6-14.

[0071] When the vehicle is running, the main driver parking brake valve 6-16 and the deputy driver parking brake valve 6-17 are first placed in the brake release position, that is, the two valves are in the left position, the pressure oil in the accumulator 6-15 is connected to the P port, the A port of the main driver parking brake valve 6-16, the P port, the A port of the deputy driver parking brake valve 6-17 to the P port of the air control reversing valve II 6-18; at the same time, the main driver emergency brake valve 6-27 and the deputy driver emergency brake valve 6-29 are pulled up, that is, the two valves are in the right position, the compressed air of the air source 6-28 is connected to the 1 port, the 2 port of the main driver emergency brake valve 6-27, the 1 port, the 2 port of the deputy driver emergency brake valve 6-29 to the K port of the air control reversing valve II 6-18, and the valve is pushed to the lower position. The pressure oil of the P port is connected to the A port to reach the parking brake 6-30, compress the spring and release the brake. At this time, the pressure gauge II 6-20 and the pressure gauge III 6-21 all show the release pressure indication. The pressure sensor II 6-22 can monitor the pressure signal.

[0072] The 3 port of the shuttle valve II 6-8 is connected with the 1 port of the shuttle valve III 6-9 and the Y1 port of the variable reversing valve 6-3, the 3 port of the shuttle valve I 6-7 is connected with the 2 port of the shuttle valve III 6-9 and the Y2 port of the variable reversing valve 6-3, and the 3 port of the shuttle valve III 6-9 is connected with the pressure sensor I 6-10.

[0073] When the vehicle is running forward or backward, the Y1 port or the Y2 port of the variable reversing valve 6-3 has pressure, that is, the 1 port or the 2 port of the shuttle valve III 6-9 has pressure, at this time the 3 port of the shuttle valve III 6-9 outputs pressure, and the pressure sensor I 6-10 will have output indication.

[0074] When the controller detects that the pressure sensor I 6-10 and the pressure sensor II 6-22 both have signals, the vehicle can run normally, when the pressure sensor I 6-10 has no pressure and the pressure sensor II 6-22 has pressure, the vehicle is in neutral position, the parking brake 6-30 is in brake release position, the controller sends sound and light reminder to remind the driver to pull the hand brake, so as to avoid forgetting to pull the hand brake after the vehicle stops; when the pressure sensor I 6-10 has pressure and the pressure sensor II 6-22 has no pressure, the vehicle has been put into forward or reverse gear, but the parking brake 6-30 is in the brake position, at this time the controller sends sound and light reminder to remind the driver that the vehicle is ready to run, don't forget to release the hand brake, which will cause the brake friction plate to wear, high temperature, and cause safety accidents.

[0075] The full hydraulic brake system 6 can remind the driver to operate by sound and light when the vehicle parking brake is not released or the hand brake is not pulled after parking. Specifically, when the vehicle is in gear, a voice prompt of "please release the parking brake" is given when the parking brake 6-30 is not released, and the prompt sound disappears when the brake is released. When the vehicle is in neutral, the driver is reminded of the voice prompt "please pull the hand brake". This ensures that the driver is reminded to release the brake before driving and to apply the brake after parking, ensuring the safety of vehicle operation.

[0078] The explosion-proof rubber-tyred vehicle of the embodiment has a small turning radius, flexible steering, large driving force, and strong climbing ability. The forced centering control device 5-9 can force adjustment of the front and rear steering when they are inconsistent during vehicle operation. The full hydraulic brake system 6 collects the pilot pressure and the control pressure signal entering the parking brake 6-30, and the pressure sensor transmits the pressure signal to the controller for analysis and comparison, and then issues different alarm language prompts. When the vehicle parking brake is not released or the hand brake is not pulled after parking, the driver is reminded by sound and light.
