Problems of power division between the devices of agricultural machine-tractor units

Purpose. Determination of the rational use of various types of transmissions in the creation of multi-moving agricultural machine-tractor units. Methods. Analysis of technical characteristics of sources of mechanical energy, synthesis of power distribution system using motor-wheels. Results. Based on the analysis of literary sources, proposals were received for the choice of transmissions for multi-moving agricultural machine-tractor units. A kinematic synthesis of an electromechanical transmission for individual propellers for various purposes is proposed. Conclusions 1. The maximum transport speed of modern agricultural tractors is in the range of 40 ÷ 50 km/h, and the minimum technological speed at the maximum power of the traction vehicle (TV) can be within 4 ÷ 5 km/h when working with a soil loosener. 2. Modern agricultural TV should have a ratio of maximum speed to minimum speed up to 10. 3. The nominal range of rotation frequencies of traction electric motors available on the market is not able to overlap the ratio more than 2 ÷ 2.5. 4. The kinematic combination of the rotation frequencies of two electric motors allows you to cover the range of operating speeds of the MTA without mechanical switching of the transmission elements. 5. The proposed autonomous motor-transmission unit allows to compose MTA with the distribution of electrical power between additional engines of technological modules of MTA.
