A Zero Turn Radius vehicle is provided that utilizes a drive system including a single hydraulic variable displacement pump and dual variable displacement hydraulic motors connected respectively one to each of two ground engaging wheels for use in steering and propelling the vehicle. The configuration of the drive system allows for proper ZTR steering of the in the forward and reverse directions.

A pump including a pump chamber 18, formed in a pump body 11, between a cam ring 17 and a rotor 15. The cam ring is formed so as to move in a direction whereby the pump capacity of the pump chamber increases and decreases. First and second fluid pressure chambers 33 and 34 are formed at opposite sides of the cam ring 17. The pump has a spool that is axially moved by a difference in fluid pressure between upper and lower stream sides of a metering throttle 50 connected to a discharge side passage 27 of the pump chamber. The spool is part of a control valve 30 that controls fluid pressure in at least the first fluid pressure chamber. An electronic driving unit, for example, a solenoid 60, applies axial thrust to the spool of the control valve.

A variable displacement pump has a cam ring, a rotor, a plurality of vanes, a pressure plate and a rear body. The cam ring is accommodated within a pump body. The rotor rotates within the cam ring. The plurality of vanes are inserted retractably into slits formed at regular intervals circumferentially in the rotor. The pressure plate and the rear body carry the cam ring and the rotor. A circular groove communicating to a back pressure inlet bore on a bottom portion of the slits is formed in a suction area on a face of the rear body on a side of the rotor. The groove is communicated via a communication passage to a passage between a power steering gear and a tank T to introduce a working oil after used in the power steering gear.

A load control structure for a work vehicle comprises: a device for detecting operating position of a manually operated speed change operating element; an engine load detection device for detecting load on an engine of the work vehicle; a swash plate position detecting device for detecting an operating position of a swash plate of a variable displacement pump of a hydrostatic continuously variable speed change device; a pump operating device for steplessly operating the swash plate of the variable displacement pump; a motor operating device for operating a swash plate of a variable displacement motor of the hydrostatic continuously variable speed change device between at least two speed change positions including a higher speed position and a lower speed position; a control device for controlling the operations of the pump operating device and the motor operating device. The control device has a automatic pump swash plate control device for controlling the operation of the pump operating device, based on detected information from the load detection device and detected information from the swash plate position detecting device, such that the greater an engine load is, greater is the extent to which the swash plate of the variable displacement pump is operated to a low speed side; and a motor swash plate control device for controlling the motor operating device so as to change the position of the swash plate of the variable displacement motor between the at least two speed change positions.

A variable displacement oil pump for an automotive engine. The oil pump includes a cam ring accommodating thereinside a pump element having a rotor. The cam ring is swingingly movably accommodated in a housing and biased in a direction to increase an eccentricity amount of the cam ring relative to the axis of the rotor by a biasing member. First and second pressure chambers are defined inside the housing by the outer peripheral section of the cam ring. The first pressure chamber is supplied with a discharge pressure to be applied to the cam ring to oppose to a biasing force of the biasing member. The second pressure chamber is supplied with the discharge pressure to be applied to the cam ring to assist the biasing force of the biasing member. Additionally, a control device is provided for controlling supply of the discharge pressure to the second pressure chamber.

The present invention is a variable displacement pump having an inner rotor rotatable about a first axis and having at least two slots. The pump also has at least two vanes, each located in a distinct one of the at least two slots. The pump also has an outer rotor rotatable about a second axis, operably associated with the inner rotor, the outer rotor having two or more recesses, each configured to receive one of the vanes. The pump also includes an expandable chamber formed by the outer rotor and the inner rotor, an eccentric ring surrounding the outer rotor, and a housing. The eccentric ring is located within the housing for adjusting the relative relationship between the first axis and the second axis in order to vary the displacement of the pump.

An arrangement for controlling a work vehicle including a hydraulic system that includes at least one pump and at least one actuator operatively driven by hydraulic fluid delivered from the pump is provided. At least a first pump is a variable displacement pump. The system is of load-sensing type in that the pump displacement is controlled by a pilot pressure representing a load exerted on the system. The arrangement includes an arrangement for reducing the pilot pressure delivered to the first pump so that the first pump displacement is regulated down when there is a need for limiting hydraulic power consumption.
