How to make a single-axle tractor with a cart with their own hands

make, cart, power, tiller, hands

The single-axle tractor is one of the most useful and inexpensive technical devices used when working in homestead plots and gardens. It is used not only for tillage and harvesting, but also for transporting hay, fuel and other heavy objects. Standard unit does not require a trailer, but every person, even a little understanding of the design and operation of mechanisms, can make a cart for a motor-block with their own hands. Its construction is quite simple.

To begin with, you need to refer to the drawings of the cart and sketches, according to which the production will be carried out. Consideration must be given to the load capacity, the dimensions of the device, and their compatibility with one another, focusing on mechanisms made in industrial plants.

Making a homemade cart for a motor-block will save you a lot of money without much effort and time.

Principle of operation

When the clutch lever is released, the discs are compressed by the spring. When they rub against each other, torque is transmitted from the engine to the gearbox. When the lever is depressed, the cable transmits the force to the release lever. The spring is compressed by the fork. Master and slave disks are decoupled. The torque is no longer transmitted.

Different models may have a different clutch design. For example, as a V-belt transmission or single-disc (multi-disc) friction clutch.

The cart is designed for a cargo weight of 450-500 kg, not taking into account the driver’s body weight. It can easily hold up to 8 bags of potatoes.

  • – support for the hinged sections;
  • – cantilever;
  • – driver;
  • – footstep;
  • – seat;
  • – frame (frame);
  • – body;
  • – support beam 3 pcs., (50×50 bar);
  • – bolts (M 8);
  • – supporting structure (steel pipes 58×4);
  • – wheels.

Stage-by-stage assembly and finishing are the most difficult tasks:

  • it is necessary to select the necessary parts;
  • cleaning of rust, treatment with a converter;
  • If necessary, trim off any excess, if indicated in the drawing;
  • fit the parts and combine.

cart frame

round and rectangular iron angles and pipe cuttings are the most suitable parts for constructing the frame for the cart. The construction involves difficult working conditions, such as on uneven (rugged) terrain.

Tip: Elementary frame for the unit is constructed from a pair of pipes and wheels on bearings. Body and frame are connected by pins. Additional installation of springs will cushion the bumping motion on potholes.

Bogie driver

Bogie for power tiller has a wheel axle. it is a steel pin with a cross section of 3 cm, and a length of 1 m. The dimensions of the pin have been selected taking into account the dimensions of the body, so that the wheels do not protrude beyond its limits. The structure is welded through supporting angles, longitudinal joints and frame bars.

  • – steering system body;
  • – drawbar (pipes 49х3);
  • – Footboard frame 4 pcs., (angles 25×25);
  • – Supporting structure. 4 pcs.;
  • – stiffeners;
  • – 25×4 strip (shims).

Useful information! Bogie dolly construction. mechanism made of welded together parts. Load will go mainly on swivel structure and on trailer coupling area. It is recommended that parts of the steel structure (ribs) be added at this point for strength.

Body

It can be made of metal or boards (20 mm), the construction should be strengthened with steel corners. The trailer body is attached to the frame with several fixed support pieces (50×50 bar). the load for single bed wagons is to place the center of gravity that does not cross the line of the wheel pin. It is recommended to install reinforcing ribs on the sides and bottom. If the trailer is designed for the task of carrying sacks, it is not necessary to make folding sides. Tip: To unload the trailer quickly, the back wall of the body can be opened or a mechanical device for flipping the cart is added.

Single axle tractor with body, coupling system

To hitch the trailer to the power harvester it is necessary to make a bracket. The top of the support must copy the contours of the cultivator handle, because the attachment is made with the console of the attached structure. Lower part, which consists of an axle and two bearings for the drill rotor (RUP) attached to the rotating assembly of the driver. The area in the middle of the bearings needs to be lubricated and covered with dust caps. When the trailer is subjected to high loads during operation. It is recommended to make the hitch and the driver movable. Bogie connecting mechanism is mounted into the cylindrical body of the longitudinal joint, the structure is secured with a thrust ring. This type of construction will allow the wheels of the cart to rotate independently. It will be much easier to control the power tiller when driving on rough terrain.

  • Console.
  • Dust cap.
  • Bearings.
  • Housing.
  • expansion hub.
  • Bearing.
  • Spacer tube.
  • Washer.
  • Nut (M20x2,5).
  • Grease device.
  • Drawbar.

Wheels

According to feedback from experienced craftsmen, it is recommended to pick up the tires from the motorized wheelchair and install them in a set with the central part of the wheels. One detail is to grind the ends of the axle shaft so it fits the size of the hub bearings cross-sections. As a result, the cart can operate with these wheels for many years. An iron circle with a diameter of about 30 mm is perfect for the base for the wheeled point. The central shaft should be connected to the longitudinal joint and the angular supports by welding.

If ordinary wheels with an axle are picked up:

  • To the transverse part of the frame an angle is attached or a piece of pipe is welded to it;
  • Drill a hole at the bottom of the angle or pipe to fix the nipples and wheel axle.

The bottom of the cart

It is best to make the bottom of the cart from sheet metal, which thickness is 2-3 mm. A cut off plank is also suitable, but will be less strong. After spending 3 to 4 days on the job, you will get a cart that will last a long time.

To complete the homemade structure, the driver’s seat is attached firmly, and the wheels are installed. For convenience it is necessary to make a footrest, so that the feet are not overhung. The cart for the power tiller with its own hands can safely operate. The assembled trailer is painted if desired and used with dignity without difficulty!

Homemade cart for power tillers. an indispensable construction for easy transportation of various loads.
