"textContent": "Vehicles with a very small turning radius or those that can turn in place, as may be provided for example in lawnmowers and swathers, frequently have freewheel wheels in combination with individual wheel control of driven wheels for steering. Such arrangements are difficult to handle, particularly when driving over terrain sloping sideways, and can therefore limit the usability of the vehicle. Ackermann-type steering devices provide good directional control, but they normally do not allow the wheels to be moved through a range of 180° or they are complex in design. A steering device is proposed which provides good steering characteristics without the use of mechanical amplification devices.",
