Articulated Loader Stored Energy Steering System 730768
With the emphasis on safety steering, a steering package has been designed to achieve the safety requirements in a stored energy system. This paper reports the application of an accumulator-unloading valve type of steering system on an articulated loader. The paper concludes that the closed-center steering system exhibits these advantages over an open-center steering system; simplified circuit, potential cost savings, built-in safety steering capability, and improved metering of a closed-center valve.
