Abstract: A sensor is positioned to sense the magnetic field strength of a magnet associated with a rotating body. The sensor produces a signal having a sinusoidal output as the magnet rotates with the rotating body. A controller takes a derivative of the output and calculates the rotational velocity of the rotational body as a function of the derivative.

Abstract: In the operation of work machines it has been a problem to control the work machine's velocity aspects such as velocity, acceleration, deceleration and jerk because of the plurality of operator interfaces required for such control. The present invention provides an operator interface system for a work machine in which a first pedal is displaceable from a neutral position, and a sensor is operatively coupled with the first pedal and is operable to output a displacement signal corresponding to a location of the first pedal. An electronic controller receives the displacement signal and provides a predetermined control to a velocity aspect of the work machine in response to the displacement signal.

Abstract: A tyre apparatus is provided, the apparatus including a tyre body for attachment to a wheel rim to define a first inflatable volume. An inner chamber defines a second inflatable volume which is located within the first inflatable volume of the tyre body. A first fluid communication path is provided between the first and second inflatable volumes and a second fluid communication path is provided between the first inflatable volume and the atmosphere. A first valve opens and closes the first fluid communication path, and a second valve opens and closes the second fluid communication path. The tensile strength and pressure-containing capacity of the material structure of the second inflatable volume is greater than that of the tyre first inflatable volume. A first fluid pressure within the first inflatable volume of the tyre body is optimisable by opening the first valve to allow pressure transfer from the second inflatable volume into the tyre body, and/or opening the second valve to allow pressure to vent from the tyre body to atmosphere. A vehicle wheel and active tyre pressure control system incorporating the tyre apparatus are also provided.
