motor vehicle comprising a coupling device for a power take-off, and the procedure and computer program for controlling engagement of a power take-off

摘要

A motor vehicle (1) is described which comprises an engine (3), a power take-off (4) for driving an external machine, and a connecting device (2) arranged between the engine (3) and the power take-off (4). The connecting device (2) comprises a first means (7) adapted to being driven by the engine (3), a second means (11) connected to the power take-off (4), and a movable third means (15, 27) for connecting the first means (7) to the second means (11). The motor vehicle (1) comprises a control unit (6) for controlling the connecting together of the means (7, 11) and the engine (3), which control unit (6) is so arranged that, upon receiving a control signal requiring power to be transmitted from the engine (3) to the power take-off (4), it controls the engine (3) in such a way that the speed of the engine (3) is reduced to a certain speed, and the control unit thereafter controls the connecting together of the means (7, 11). A method and a computer programme for controlling the connecting together are also described.
