Abstract
A variant of the electromechanical transmission scheme for mobile platforms of small mass, designed primarily for operation in an organized artificial environment under the conditions of dimensional restrictions, is proposed. Typical examples of such environments are greenhouses, gardens and parks. Distinctive features of the proposed transmission are the use of a single traction motor and a power distribution mechanism that allows the use of two modes of side turn: in the range from a given minimum radius to infinity and turning around the center of gravity. The transmission scheme, with some changes, can be extended to mobile chassis of a larger mass - tractors of various traction classes, forestry machines, loaders, mobile robots, etc.
