A method for automatically controlling vehicle speeds of a track-based work vehicle may include monitoring, with a computing device, a load transmitted through a pivot pin of a track assembly of the work vehicle and determining, with the computing device, a speed limit setting for the work vehicle based on the monitored load, wherein the speed limit setting is associated with maintaining an operating temperature of a track of the track assembly below a predetermined temperature threshold. In addition, the method may include automatically limiting, with the computing device, a vehicle speed of the work vehicle based on the determined speed limit setting.

A motor vehicle for independent use by an individual in a wheelchair, comprising an open air vehicle body including a floor further comprising a front, a rear, and lateral sides, said floor sized and shaped to receive and retain a wheelchair; a motor; at least one front and at least one rear wheel supporting said vehicle body and floor, each of said front and rear wheels attached rotatably near an underside of a corner of the vehicle body; at least one actuator attaching said floor to said at least one rear wheel, wherein said floor can be lowered to a ground surface and raised to a level floor position; wherein a rear portion of said floor is structured to fold upward to form said rear side and fold downward to be in line with said floor; and a steering control assembly coupled to said at least one front wheel.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a wheelchair configured to reposition an occupant between a lowered and a raised position. The wheelchair can include a frame, a seat moveable relative to the frame, a drive wheel, and one or more pairs of arm assemblies. The arm assembly includes a wheel configured to move from a first spatial location when the wheel chair is operating on flat, level ground to a second spatial location that is different than the first spatial location. Arm limiters can selectively engage the arm assembly based on at least one of a seat position, position of the arm assembly and surface conditions of ground surface. The arm limiters can limit the range of motion of the arm assembly and sometimes other operational aspects of the chair.

A work vehicle includes a travelling state determination unit capable of determining a travelling state of a travelling body, and a control unit that restricts, if it has been determined by the travelling state determination unit that the travelling body is in a reverse travelling state, an upper limit value of a target rotational speed of an engine that is based on an operation on an accelerator operation tool to be a lower value than in a case where it has been determined by the travelling state determination unit that the travelling body is in a forward travelling state.

A multipurpose vehicle includes an engine that has a plurality of cylinders, a traveling vehicle body that has a traveling device that is driven based on a driving force of the engine, a man-operable accelerator operating tool, a controller that controls a fuel injection quantity with respect to the plurality of cylinders of the engine based on an amount of operation of the accelerator operating tool, and a vehicle speed sensor that detects a traveling speed of the traveling vehicle body. If the traveling speed of the traveling vehicle body reaches or exceeds a set maximum traveling speed, the controller suppresses the fuel injection quantity supplied with respect only to one/some of the plurality of cylinders, irrespective of the amount of operation of the accelerator operating tool.

A vehicle speed limit apparatus includes a demand value calculation part configured to calculate a demand value according to an accelerator opening degree, a limit vehicle speed acquisition part configured to obtain a limit vehicle speed, an upper limit value calculation part configured to calculate an upper limit value based on a limit acceleration, a selection part configured to select the smaller of the demand value and the upper limit value, a control part configured to control a drive force generation apparatus, and an upper limit value correction part configured to correct the upper limit value based on a current acceleration and the limit acceleration when the selected value corresponds to the upper limit value, and to correct the upper limit value based on the current acceleration and the demand value when the selected value corresponds to the demand value.

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for limiting a speed of a vehicle. A speed control device, operably coupled with a vehicle management system, can be configured to limit an engine speed based at least upon: an identified speed of the vehicle; a pre-determined speed limit for a location of the vehicle, identified in real-time; and a pre-determined speed threshold for the vehicle. A networking component, communicatively coupled with the speed control device, can be configured to communicate wirelessly with a remote computing device to provide the speed threshold information from the remote computing device to the speed control device, and to provide vehicle-related information to the remote computing device. Additionally, the remote computing device can comprise an application that allows a user to provide the speed threshold information and receive the vehicle-related information.

A vehicle, method, and track control system for sensing the temperature of a track and controlling the vehicle's speed based on the temperature of the track. The track temperature may be sensed by a sensor embedded in a portion of the track, such as in a drive lug, a tread bar, or portion of the carcass. The temperature of the track may also be used to alert an operator of a track temperature issue or request that the operator reduce the speed of the vehicle.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a wheelchair configured to reposition an occupant between a lowered and a raised position. The wheelchair can include a frame, a seat moveable relative to the frame, a drive wheel, and one or more pairs of arm assemblies. The arm assembly includes a wheel configured to move from a first spatial location when the wheel chair is operating on flat, level ground to a second spatial location that is different than the first spatial location. Arm limiters that can selectively engage the arm assembly dependent on the position of the arm assembly and surface conditions of ground and can limit the range of motion of the arm assembly and sometimes other operational aspects of the chair.

A system for regulating speed of a vehicle along a road surface, the system including: at least one controller; at least one throttle sensor in communication with the at least one controller; at least one brake sensor in communication with the at least one controller; at least one gear sensor in communication with the at least one controller; at least one speed sensor in communication with the at least one controller; at least one motor in communication with the at least one controller; and at least one energy source in communication with the at least one controller and the at least one motor; wherein the at least one controller further includes a proportional integral and derivative controller; and at least one retardive braking system in communication with the at least one controller and controlled by the proportional integral and derivative controller.
