Electronic Controlled Compact Utility Tractor Shuttling and Inching 1999-01-2807
Application of an 8-bit microcontroller and electro-hydraulic valves to replace existing mechanical linkages and valves is proposed for a compact utility tractor with power shift forward and reverse clutches. Details of the system are discussed which includes projected costs, function, and performance of the individual components. An evaluation is made of the resulting shift quality and featherability.
