Разблокировка колес для мотоблока своими руками
Walk-behind tractors, also known as two-wheel tractors, are versatile and efficient machines that farmers and gardeners have been using for years. Often used for tasks like tilling, mowing, and cultivating, these machines are a reliable option for small-scale farming needs. However, with any machinery comes the possibility of errors and complications. One issue that can arise with a walk-behind tractor is a wheel that becomes locked in place. Fortunately, with a little ingenuity and some basic tools, this problem can be resolved using a DIY wheel unlocker.
Before diving into the steps for creating a wheel unlocker, it’s essential to understand how it works. The majority of walk-behind tractors feature a transmission system that typically includes a clutch, gears, and a differential. These parts work together to transfer the power generated by the engine to the wheels, allowing the tractor to move forward or backward. When a wheel becomes stuck, it’s usually due to the differential not coupling or decoupling properly. To address this issue, a wheel unlocker can be created for the tractor.
To make a wheel unlocker, you will need a few simple tools, including:
— Two scrap pieces of wood (around a foot long)
— A saw
— A drill
— Four bolts (1/4-inch)
— Four nuts (1/4-inch)
— Four large washers (1/4-inch)
— A ratchet wrench (or socket wrench)
Once you have gathered your materials and tools, follow these steps:
Step 1: Cut the scrap wood pieces in half lengthwise so that you have two thin pieces from each piece of wood.
Step 2: Mkake a hole on each wood piece, spaced similarly to the bolt you are using. (Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the bolt.)
Step 3: Attach each piece of wood to the flat side of each wheel using bolts, nuts, and washers.
Step 4: Attach one half of each of the two pieces of wood to each wheel- So that you can raise or lower either side of the axle by raising or lowering the pieces of wood on one side assuming you can still turn one wheel.
Step 5: With the ratchet or socket wrench, tighten each nut until the pieces of wood are flush with the wheel.
Step 6: Once both pieces are in place, use your wrench to tighten the nuts as much as possible.
With the undoing of the nuts holding the wooden planks, the tractor can be lifted on either side by raising the corresponding board or lowered by lowering the same plank on the opposite side. This releasing of the differential will allow the tractor to easily move forward or backward as needed.
By creating a DIY wheel-unlocker for your walk-behind tractor, you can save time and money on potential repair services or costly replacements. Additionally, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that you solved the problem yourself, using a simple yet effective solution.
In conclusion, walk-behind tractors are handy machines for small-scale farming and gardening but are prone to locking wheels. With a DIY wheel unlocker, you can quickly and efficiently release a stuck wheel without needing expensive specialized equipment or mechanics. By following the simple steps outlined above and using basic tools and materials, you can keep your tractor running smoothly and avoid costly repairs while enjoying the satisfaction of addressing the issue with your own hands.
