Abstract: A cruise control system for work machines. The system comprises one or more levers for controlling the velocity of the work machine and one or more magnet assemblies. The magnet assemblies comprise means of overcoming the neutral bias of a control lever so that the velocity of the work machine may be maintained without manual input from the operator. The magnets may act directly upon a control lever or a surface adjacent a control lever. Additional controls may be employed to set a maximum cruising speed for the work machine when cruise control is engaged.

Abstract: A control system for an offboard fluid supply system. The fluid supply system has mud supply pump which may be controlled by a local control system disposed at the fluid supply system. The mud supply pump may also be controlled by a remote control system disposed on a drilling rig. The mud supply pump provides fluid through a conduit to a drill string on the drilling rig. The local control system and the remote control system are paired such that only one of each is connected at one time. While paired, information from both the fluid supply system and drilling rig may be displayed by either control system.

Abstract: An articulated work machine with individually powered drive members. Each drive member is controlled by a corresponding electric motor, and is capable of rotating at a different speed and in the opposite rotational direction than all other drive members. Each drive member may also remain stationary while all other drive members rotate. The electric motors are commanded by a controller, which may be directed by inputs from by an operator. A lift arm extends from the front end of the vehicle, and a platform station extends from the rear end of the vehicle. The lift arm is connected to a tool, such as a bucket.
