РАБОТА КОЛЕСНОГО ДИФФЕРЕНЦИАЛА В ПРОЦЕССЕ РАЗГОНА ПАХОТНОГО АГРЕГАТА

Abstract

The use of ballast on wheeled tractors leads to over-compaction of the soil, including sub-arable horizons. When overclocking arable units with buried working bodies at operating speed, the engine will inevitably enter the overload mode. This leads to a decrease in productivity, fuel overspending, and deterioration of environmental indicators. The authors proposed for the first time to equip the driving wheels with built-in differentials. The basis of the wheel differential development concept is the eccentric application of external loads and the driving torque to the wheel. The purpose of the research is to identify structural and operational factors affecting the efficiency of the wheel differential, to establish the nature of the relationships between them. The operation of the driving wheel tire occurs under conditions of a deformed support surface. Acceleration of a mobile power vehicle with a built-in differential in the wheels is presented as a two-stage process. The first stage of acceleration corresponds to the operation of the gearbox in the planetary gearbox mode, the second stage - in the differential gearbox mode. The translational movement of the wheel, its rotation along the bearing surface is possible if the torque on the wheel rim is provided by the moment of friction force in the contact spot. The rotation of the bearing gear along the epicyclical gear, the formation of the tilting and lever moments in the wheel reducer contribute to the advancement of the pressure center along the length of the contact spot in the oncoming sector of the wheel, an increase in the friction force and tangential force, ensuring smooth starting of the tractor unit. After overcoming the moment of inertia of the rotating and translationally moving masses of the unit, the value of the required moment decreases. The driving bearing gear, remaining in the lower position, rotates the wheel. The gearbox has switched to differential operation. At the same time, the driver performs angular oscillations, the magnitude of which depends on the conditions of movement of the wheel and the traction resistance of the unit. The amount of torque required depends on the design parameters of the built-in differential, operating conditions, and gravity applied to the bearing drive gear of the planetary gearbox
