single-axis tractor with its own hands from a ZAZ box

How to make a single-axle tractor with your own hands from inexpensive components

With this theme I begin construction of motorcycle tedder. Since the beginning of the manufacture of components will be to place photos and a description, I will not think ahead, so TTX as the play.

Yury (Yoshihiro) If you are redoing the gearbox on both sides of the shaft to put on a planetary gearbox is not a squishy axle for a crawler, and the weight is ridiculous.

Yury (Yoshihiro) For this devais want to buy a Lifan 15 hp with automatic clutch and electric starter, the price in Moscow, Russia.Irbit 11900r. In the presence of a varic, but I want to automatic reset it with the engine is not a problem, and the price difference of 600r

Yury (Yoshihiro) Today took some time to center the shaft, turned out the flanges and bearing hubs.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Diameter shaft 28mm, bearings seating 30mm, and the bearing hub is part of the axle classics. Remained to cut keyways and make bushings mount sprockets.

Vladimir (Teri) Yury, it goes quietly, everything is nice and correct.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Hi Vladimir, today I want to deal with unbending the plastic pipe for the stars from which I made teeth on the Yukon. The thickness of the pipe is 4.5 cm thick, but there is a water pipe 2, 5 cm with those will be easier. As myself?

Yury (Yoshihiro) Here is the engine want to buy but when I get to r.Irbit don’t even know

Sergey (Liberato) Yuri, welcome! Interesting topic, I also plan to build a lightweight mini-tracker, what do you think if you translate into life sd military mini rover like “elk” is Lifan 22 liters.Have enough power do you think?

Yury (Yoshihiro) Well, if only as two twin motobukziki, and if that a larger engine is weak. If you have the desire to make a two-link then take the box from LUAZ and its rear axle and build two motobucket. The first with the engine the second through the articulated joint only with the axle, I think the idea can live!

Yury (Yoshihiro) Today tried to cook chowder from a gas plastic pipe, heated the oil to 160 boiled scary but I can not boil the pipe

Yury (Yoshihiro) Slightly altered the axle, since the overhang is big and it can bend, then made stockings.

tractor, hands

Yury (Yoshihiro) Now I think what to make the stars from? I wanted to use kapron pipe but I could not bend it. If you want to do it like on KOYRE, for the caterpillar I need a thin-walled kapron pipe 2 cm. it is not available in general. :(((((

How to make?

The example, which will be given below (Master B. Arkhipov), will be a good illustration of how you can assemble with your own hands at home four-wheel drive single axle tractor. Cables can be taken from “Ant”, ZAZ, scooter, the rear axle. from VAZ, the box. from “Zhiguli. The main frame is welded from pipes with diameter of 40-45 mm. Modular joints are installed as pull rods, which will be a reliable “link” between the power plant, plow and steering.

Another tube is welded to the supporting frame, which ends with an axle. In this way the tension of cables going to the box is challenged. The tension is realized by moving the lever.

Such a machine has several advantages. First of all the articulated block should be mentioned. Non-dynamic rigid connection (which is present in many models) complicates the operation of the mechanism. The articulated joint is more productive. reversing during ploughing is possible but the plough can stay in the furrow.

This is a hot topic, because the resistance of the ground always makes the machine “run” in different directions. It often needs additional attention, efforts to “keep” the mechanism straight.

The axis of the device is composed by the vector of translational motion. During plowing, the entire block is slightly “rotated”. It is possible to correct the optimal angle with swivel links.

The ploughing depth can be adjusted automatically. It should be said that the frame is equipped with a field board. It adjusts the force that is responsible for ploughing into the ground, especially when it is buried. If it protrudes from the ground at too great an angle, the angle of attack increases accordingly, and then the implement enters the ground again at the set value.

The future single-axle tractor is equipped with a supporting frame and wheels, which can be made of metal, they will have a good grip on any soil. To reliably “connect” the frame with the suspension, usually two bent tubes are used, between which the fuel tank is mounted.

To properly equip the engine, a bracket is used, at the end of which there is a steel axle (its length is 15 cm).

A bracket is welded to the frame itself, and the engine is placed on the axle. The whole power unit is fastened with arcs. Then another shaft is fitted, and the control cables and chains are pulled through.

Such a machine can do many different jobs and is a versatile piece of equipment. To do this, it is sufficient to simply swap the spare parts designed for the plough with the elements necessary for the functioning of the cultivator.

While driving, the machine makes a furrow in the ground and simultaneously places potato tubers in it. To “close” the tubers, you just need to use a single-axle tractor a second time. Algorithm of plants’ hilling is exactly the same.

The use of different moldboards allows you to adjust the working width, it is also possible to “pick up” potatoes that were not harvested during the first pass. A single-axle tractor can be used to clear snow and wet leaves, you just need to “pick up” a stiff brush.

Any single-axle tractor consists of such units:

The engine is best to choose a two-stroke, ideally suited for this motorcycle motor from “IZh-Planeta”.

Transmissions come in power tillers as follows:

  • toothed (it can be found most often on tractors or tanks);
  • toothed-worm;
  • a complex (toothed and worm) with an additional pulley.

The system of different controls contains:

The control unit is several levers, which are responsible for:

The implement must be equipped with a hitch that enables it to be properly connected to the trailed implement.

Advantages of a homemade machine

Self-made single axle tractor from ZAZ gearbox is a great option how to provide yourself with cheap, quick and reliable equipment for your land plot. Such a machine is capable of performing the following types of work:

A small mini-tractor, weighing up to 160 kg, can do it all. On average, it can take up to one month to build. In the process of constructing a half-axle, you can encounter many nuances, so before you start making a mini-tractor, it is necessary to study the design features of the unit.

If necessary, you can make homemade hitches and additional attachments. Homemade implements. an extremely important addition to the motoblock. With their help, a single-axle tractor based on ZAZ gearbox will be more functional. Such a unit can be used by yourself or made for sale. Self-assembly can not only return the spent money on a single-axle tractor based on ZAZ gearbox, but also make a good profit.

For the construction of such a unit will need:

Originally for the construction of power tillers were used gearboxes. The principle of their work was to convert high frequency of rotation on the input shaft into low frequency of rotation on the output shaft. This is what set the technique in motion. But the need for regular maintenance, timely, frequent repairs forced farmers to look for other options for assembling power tillers.

How to handle legal issues?

If it was decided to make a mini-tractor with an engine from VAZ, the farmer should take into account several important legal nuances.

  • In the case of buying an old Zhiguli car, it is necessary to go through the procedure of its re-registration;
  • After that, it is necessary to inform the representative of the traffic police about further plans to modify the machine;
  • After completing the assembly of the mini-tractor, the farmer will need to register it in his name and get new license plates. This is necessary if the agricultural machine will be used on public roads.

If the owner of a minitractor doesn’t solve all these questions, he will be fined at best. In case of repeated violations traffic police officers have the full right to confiscate the machine.

Minitractor

The minitractor differs from the power tiller in that its power is higher, and therefore increases and changes the range of application of machinery in the economy. It is quite easy to make a minitractor from power tillers by connecting a suitable trailer. Here you can use both the factory model of the tractor unit and its homemade counterpart.

Not only the rear axle is good for Zhiguli, but also the gearbox. You will need some modifications:

  • The gearbox is cut off and attached to the self-made frame with bolt fasteners. The pulley ratio is 1:4.
  • From the gearbox you pull the chain drive to the axle, install sprockets with an efficiency ratio of 1 to 3.8.
  • The axle itself is bolted to the frame of the motoblock.
  • The wheels are made from Zhigul discs. You can disassemble the structure by welding seams, and then narrow the disc itself by inserting the smaller part into the larger one and welding the resulting part.

This variant suggests using two ready-made parts: a power tiller and a trailer.

Is it worth making a self-made single axle tractor with a ZID engine?

Many experts have noted that a single-axle tractor based on the ZID engine (the factory named after Yoshihiro Zavod in Nikolaev, Ukraine) is a very good solution to the problem of low-powered tractors. Degtyarev, g. Kovrov) can be a very good option for any agrarian. What explains it? Let’s consider the features of the ZID 4 engine for power tillers.

  • ZID 4 is a 4-stroke carbureted single-cylinder engine with air cooling system.
  • Cylinder capacity 520 cm3,
  • Diameter. 86 mm, stroke. 90 mm.
  • Compression ratio reaches 5.3.
  • Rated power 4.5 liters.с.
  • Number of revolutions of the crankshaft at rated power not exceeding 2000 min-1.

Gearbox shaft with which the engine is equipped, has a speed range of 333 min-1 to 687 min-1. Fuel consumption reaches 1.5 l/h. Ignition system works by flywheel magneto. Start the engine ZID 4 for power tiller can be started with a cord or starting handle. Although there is no automatic start, this engine is one of the best for modern power tillers.

Engine ZID-5 for power tillers is an improved version of ZID-4, ideal for agricultural work on small plots. Perfect technical characteristics of the engine ZID-5 for power tillers have made it a popular power unit.

Therefore, despite the fact that domestic products often causes fair complaints from consumers, you can be confident in the high quality of the engine. To increase the service life of a motor block, it is very important to follow the rules of engine operation, which will minimize the number of unexpected breakdowns.

Self-Made Tractors and All-Terrain Vehicles

With this topic I start to build motobucket. Since the beginning of the manufacture of components will be to lay out a photo and description, I will not think ahead, so TTX as the play.

Yury (Yoshihiro) If the gearbox is remade so on both sides of the shaft to put on the planetary gearbox is not squishy axle for the caterpillar, and the weight is ridiculous.

Yury (Yoshihiro) For this devais want to buy a 15 hp Lifan with an automatic clutch and electric starter, the price in Moscow, Russia.Irbit 11900r. In the presence of a vario, but so far I want to throw it off the engine is not a problem, and the price difference of 600r

Yury (Yoshihiro) I spent some time today from aligning the shaft, milling the flanges and bearing hubs.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Shaft diameter 28mm, bearing seats 30mm, and the bearing hub is part of a classic axle. Now I have to cut keyways and make sprocket mount bushings.

Vladimir (Teri) Yury, it is going very well, everything is nice and correct.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Hi Vladimir, today I want to do unbending of plastic pipe for the stars from which I did teeth on Yukon. The thickness of the pipe 4, 5 cm thick, but there is a water pipe 2, 5 cm with those will be easier. As myself?

Yury (Yoshihiro) This is the engine I want to buy, but when I get to r.Irbit do not even know

Sergey (Liberato) Yury, welcome! The topic is interesting, I also plan to assemble a lightweight mini-tracker, what do you think if to translate into reality sd military mini rover-type “elk” is Lifan 22 liters.with enough power do you think?

Yury (Yoshihiro) Well, if only as two twin motobuchsiki, and if something bigger weak motor. If you have a desire to make a two-link, then take a box from LUAZ and its rear axle and assemble two motobukzihravischiki. The first with the engine the second through the articulation only with the axle, I think the idea can live!

Yury (Yoshihiro) Trying to make some chowder out of a gas tube today, heated the oil to 160 boiled over and over, but the tube would not let me

Yury (Yoshihiro) I redid the axle a little, because the offset is big and it can bend.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Now I think what to make the stars? I wanted to use a kapron pipe, but I could not bend it, if you do as on the COYRE, you need a thin-walled kapron pipe 2 cm for the caterpillar. it’s not there, so that’s a problem. :(((((

Yury (Yoshihiro) bought the engine today.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Judging by the lettering on the packaging and rough translation of the instructions pure CITES

Yury (Yoshihiro) The engine is running. Manual start, starter start, charging all works fine. Thanks to Alexander from Yury (Yoshihiro).Irbit for the engine.

Yury (Yoshihiro) Here’s a little work, time is critically short. Most likely not a buggy, and the caterpillar module, for a motor-scooter is heavy getting “Motoslon”

Yury (Yoshihiro) How would the two-row chain behave? On Buran walks, and here I think the load will be less. What do you advise?

Vladimir (Teri) Yuri, I think it will work. The chain is on the main shaft, the load on it will be small, but you have to grease it somehow.
