Abstract

The article analyzes theoretical and experimental studies of intelligent mechanism designs, considers the advantages of using intelligent mechanisms for agricultural machines in comparison with traditional structural schemes. The principle of operation of an intelligent mechanism presented in the form of two differential drives for agricultural machines is considered. Planetary mechanisms of this type are systems with two or more degrees of freedom in terms of the number of structural connections, therefore, with one leading link, the movement of their driven links is determined by additional external links that may have different physical origins. The paper presents a description and also considers the main advantages of using the developed kinematic scheme of an intelligent mechanism for agricultural machines, which allows for automatic regulation in a wide range of movement speed depending on the load on the working body, the weight of grain on the conveyor belt, the type of soil on which the agricultural machine moves, etc., overload protection, increased productivity due to full engine load. The proposed intelligent mechanism for agricultural machines allows the distribution of torque from a single engine, and there is also no need to install a set of sensors and a control unit.
