Abstract
437,037. Steering motor vehicles. JACOBSOHN, W., 12, Ahrweilerstrasse, Wilmersdorf, Berlin. April 23, 1934, No. 12238. [Class 79 (v)] Trackless motor vehicles are steered automatically by means of a rail or guide, the manual steering gear being put out of action and steering being effected by a servo-motor controlled by the distance of the vehicle from the guide. In the construction shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the conductor wire 17 of a trolley vehicle is used as the guide and the vehicle is steered by a servo-motor 22 energized in accordance with (1) the angle alpha which the trolley arm 18 makes with the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, (2) the angle # which the collector shoe 19 makes with the trolley arm, or (3) the effect produced by both angles. The angular movement of the shoe or the trolley arm may operate a rheostat in the servo-motor control circuit, and this circuit may be supplied from the conductor 17 so that the servo-motor is put out of action when the trolley shoe leaves the conductor. The servo-motor controls the steering wheels through steering-gear 23, the steering hand wheel being put out of action. In the construction shown in Fig. 3, a conductor 12 is embedded in the road and electric highfrequency devices 10, 11 are employed to control the steering servo-motor 13, the effect of the devices 10, 11 being dependent on their distance from the conductor 12. The vehicle may run normally on flat rails 14, 15 and one or both of these may be used as conductors, the separate conductor 12 being dispensed with. In Fig. 1 (not shown) the servo-motor is controlled mechanically by an arm carried by the vehicle and bearing against a guide rail.
