トラクタの側方けん引と重量転移

その他

We studied on the quantity of weight weight transfer of tractor, pulling load by the　method of offset pull, especially, having weight difference on the each side wheel and yet deflection angle for travelling direction. The results are as follows ;
(1) Weight transfer is not so influenced from the weight difference, but is influenced from the traction force along the center line of tractor.
(2) When the hitch point is eccentric from the center of driving shaft, weight transfer can be also calculated with the same equation above. But in this case, we must use the smaller value than the actural force, because it is influenced from the turning moment of tractor caused by the eccentricity of load.
These results may be useful for design and operation of tractor.
