СОВЕРШЕНСТВОВАНИЕ СИСТЕМЫ РЕКУПЕРАЦИИ ЭНЕРГИИ ЛЕСОВОЗНОГО ТЯГАЧА С ПРИЦЕПОМ-РОСПУСКОМ

Abstract

The place of road transport in logging production has been considered. The main advantages of using timber tractors with timber drags in comparison with other layout schemes of timber road trains have been described. Conse-quences of dynamic loads acting on the pivot of the turning bunk of a timber-carrying area from frequent braking of a timber tractor with a timber drag have been given. Based on the analysis of scientific works of foreign scientists, the promising direction of research in the field of recuperation of various types of energy in road transport is substantiated, which makes it possible to reduce dynamic loads during braking in the pivot pin and at the same time accumulate, with subsequent useful use, energy unproductively dissipated into the surrounding space from the energy forces of the trailer with a pack of whips. The design of the main manufacturers of platforms for timber haulers with timber drags has been described. The requirements for timber haulers with timber drags operated on public roads have been considered. The main forces acting on the links of a timber tractor with a timber drag during braking have been analyzed. Diagrams of the mutual positions of a timber tractor with a timber drag when moving along a timber road on the rise, downhill and turn have been given. The analysis of the dependences of the forces arising in the pivot of the swivel bunk of a timber platform during the movement of a timber tractor with a timber drag on the turning radius and speed of movement has been carried out. A promising design of a recuperative bolster device for a timber haulage site has been proposed. It enables to accumulate hydraulic energy during frequent braking of a timber tractor with a timber drag, followed by its use in the process of loading and unloading timber by a hydraulic manipulator
