  • these transmissions 10 between wheel before 5A, 5B and direction of the machine operate in synchronism to allow parallel movement and simultaneous front wheels 5A, 5B.
  • this front wheel 5B is a crazy wheel. This second embodiment is shown in the figures.
  • the direction of the machine is made up of a steering column 8 angularly movable by via an operating member 7 such as a drawbar or a steering wheel. This direction can be assisted by means of a servo-control shown in 9 in the figures for facilitate management handling.
  • Each transmission 10, 11 consists of a driving pulley 10A, 11A and a driven pulley 10B, 11B interconnected by an endless organ 13 such as a chain.
  • Each pulley driving 10A, 11A can be mechanically coupled to the column steering 8 by means of a clutch, electromagnetic preference, activated depending on the selected operation.
  • the angular movement of the steering column 8 / driving pulley 10A, 11A to the engaged state is transmitted by the endless member 13 to the driven pulley 10B, 11B thus angularly moving the wheel 5A, 6 to which the driven pulley is coupled so as to make this last director.
  • This configuration of transmission is more particularly represented at the figure 2.
  • the clutch can still be formed, as illustrated in FIG. 5, by a hydraulic jack 21 or tire cooperating with a loaded mechanical lock 22 by spring and axially displaceable parallel to the axis longitudinal of the steering column 8 to make secured to a driving pulley either from the column of transmission-activated steering, i.e. one fixed structure in the inactivated state of the transmission.
  • the management is made up, in addition to the column of direction 8, angularly movable by the operation 7, such as a drawbar or a steering wheel, of a plate 23 integral in rotation with column 8.
  • This plate is disposed between the driving pulleys 10A, 11A of transmissions 10, 11 so that the faces of the driving pulleys extend substantially parallel to the faces of the plate 23.
  • This plate 23 is permanently coupled to a servo-control shown at 9 in the figures.
