A review of land vehicles equipped with hydrostatic drive systems was conducted, and the advantages of these systems were presented. The issue of the validity of using skid steering systems in land vehicles was addressed, with particular emphasis on remotely controlled mobile robots. A concept for a hydrostatic drive system for a three-axle high-mobility platform with skid steering was proposed.The tasks assigned to modern engineering machines, the complexity of the work processes they perform, the variable loads on their actuators, difficult operating conditions, and the desire to improve operator comfort lead to the search for more efficient power transmission systems that reduce machine operating costs.
The simultaneous development of hydraulic components, their reliability, and ease of control mean that hydrostatic drive systems are increasingly being used in the drive system solutions of modern machines and vehicles. Full utilization of the potential capabilities of these drive systems is possible only through the introduction of modern control systems for them. (…)
