Abstract: A measuring and control system for a vehicle, having a measuring device for measuring the spacing between a following vehicle and a leading vehicle travelling ahead. The system involves a regulating and control unit for producing actuating signals as a function of measurement signals of the measuring device. In order to implement transverse guidance of a vehicle, the drawbar angle formed during cornering between the following vehicle and the leading vehicle is determined. The drawbar angle is formed between the longitudinal axis of the following vehicle and a connecting line between the following vehicle and the leading vehicle and is determined in the measuring device as an additional measurement signal. A steering signal is produced in the regulating and control unit as an actuating signal for the transverse guidance of the following vehicle as a function of the drawbar angle.

Abstract: A throttle control system for a tractor having at least three tractor vehicles each of which has its own engine and wheels driven by the engine, in which there is means responsive to change in angular relationship of the vehicles to change the relative settings of the throttles of the vehicles in the rear so that the engine of the vehicle on the inside of the turn tends to operate at a slower speed than the engine of the vehicle on the outside of the turn. There are cables running from a throttle control in the operator's compartment of the lead vehicle to the throttles of all three vehicles, the angle responsive means being effective, when the throttles are in advanced position, to override the action of the main throttle lever and move one of the throttles towards throttle retard position without disturbing the position of the main throttle control.
