20090078480 Low Surface Impact Skid Steered All Terrain Vehicle - A low surface impact, skid steered, all terrain vehicle is disclosed which has a rectangular frame from the opposite sides of which sets of tandem mounted, independently movable control arms are suspended. An hydraulic motor driven wheel axle is mounted on the lower end of each control arm with at least one pneumatic wheel mounted upon each axle. Compressible springs are located between the frame and each control arm so as to bias the control arms and wheels supported therefrom downwardly to a position in which friction plates mounted upon the control arms contact and limit movement of each set of control arms toward one another. Separate hydraulic control circuits having separate drive pumps drive the hydraulic motors on each side of the vehicle. Each of these circuits is operable in either a series connected mode or a parallel connected mode. In the series connected mode, each circuit is operable to provide substantially equal fluid flow and pressure to all of the drive motors on one side of the vehicle so as to obtain equal wheel speed and minimize wheel slippage with the ground. With the circuits operating in the parallel connected mode, the drive motors on front and rear sets of wheels receive differing fluid flow and pressure with the result that when the wheels on opposite sides of the vehicle are driven in opposite directions, skid steering of the vehicle is improved over that obtainable in the series connected mode.03-26-2009

180240070 Separate driving motor for each drive wheel 5
20090044991High efficiency vehicle - Here invented are efficient road vehicles having special aerodynamic shapes, with stabilizing devices that enable aerodynamic efficiency. An embodiment is a articulated vehicle that is tall and narrow. It includes a carriage part that encloses a driver and passenger riding in tandem. This car is only wide enough for persons seated in single file, so it has very low projected frontal area compared with typical cars.
