The choice of the transmission structure of a wheeled machine for the mechanization of thinning

Abstract

The article reflects the relevance of the mechanization of work and individual operations in the course of planned thinning in forests of various types. The specific operating conditions of machines used for this type of forestry work are determined. The principles of construction of transmissions of machines for various purposes are considered, a method for determining external parameters and constructing a kinematic diagram of an inter-axle controlled power distribution mechanism in its composition is proposed. The results of kinematic and force analysis for the considered example of the mechanism are presented. Prospects for using the mechanisms of this family are formulated.
