Abstract

Тhe use of auto trains of material support shows that the loading and unloading process, the attachment of loaded trailers to the tractor requires some time, effort and resources. In addition, experience in the use of subdivisions agricultural cargo indicates the need for additional time, effort and resources when attaching loaded trailers to tractor units when the weight of the load does not allow one driver to rotate and direct freely the triangle of the front axle of the trailer with the engagement ring to the traction-coupling device of the tractor

The article describes the possibility of reducing the complexity rigging and coupling of loaded trailers to tractors at places of loading and unloading of agricultural products through the use of advanced coupling equipment. Тhe process of empirical research proved the possibility of increasing efficiency transportation of agricultural goods through the use of a patented technical tool.

Use of the offered vehicles of the domestic manufacturer with traction coupling devices of the proposed sample and rigging equipment will allow you to perform lifting work with a smaller number of cargo teams, that will not only reduce the complexity of the rigging work, but also to save and spend the time, it takes overcoming obstacles by these trains and repairing damaged vehicles.

The proposed traction-coupling device will allow the trailer to be towed to the tractor by one driver. In this case, the advanced traction-coupling device has low material consumption and cost. It can be improved directly at any repair shop of automotive equipment or vehicle base.
