Installation and Test of a Hydrostatic Drive Transmission in a Government Furnished M-113 Vehicle

Abstract

A design effort was performed to install a Hydrostatic Drive Train with secondary regulation (constant pressure) in a 14 ton Military Tracked Vehicle. The system offered simplified control and utilizes a single variable displacement pump driven by the engine controlling the displacement, speed, and torque of hydraulic drive motors. Two speed final drives are required between the motors and track sprocket. Vehicle requirements and expected performance are presented.
