equipment, which make transport and mixing easier in the offer. The

manufacturer also offers specialist consultancy concerning the choice

of suitable equipment for customer's needs.

All cases of lack of clarity concerning the machine intended

use should be cleared with the manufacturer. Proper choice

of the machine and awareness of its intended use will rise

safety at work.

MACHINE DESCRIPTION

Fig. 3 General view of the machine.

The hydraulic controlled bedding buckets are adapted to work with a

vehicle which has power hydraulic system as a standard of the rear

and front fastenings used in agricultural vehicles.

Basic tool fastening systems existing in the manufactured buckets are

as follows:

• TUZ I, TUZ II, TUZ III, TUZ IV hitch types

• EURO hitch

• SMS hitch

• ISO type of coupling

The bedding bucket is built from the three of main construction

elements. The ﬁrst element – frame of bucket (chamber) is made

of steel sections and thick steel plate made by laser cut method,

welded to form a stiff bucket frame. The second element – conveying

worm (shaft) made of welded steel elements, constitute cylindrical

conveying worm, driven by hydraulic motor. For better grinding

and mixing of bedding material, the teethed „spiders” driven from

conveying worm of bucket are used. The third element – ejection

throttle, which connected to cylinder of the hydraulic system makes

possible for precision dosage of the material mixed. In the bedding

buckets with pressing unit the teethed frame (pressing) is used,

which makes easier fodder picking up and holding of the material

served from the bucket. It is built from steel elements connected with

hydraulic cylinders of the hydraulic system. The whole is smoothly

controlled from the vehicle cabin. Fig 3.1 The hydraulic system of the

bucket, after connection to the vehicle, from the operator's cabin

is controlled and due to electric controlled sliding divider, makes

possible smooth operation in required range.

Forces acting on the bedding bucket

Extreme phenomena occurring during operation with the buket are

comparable with impact collision. To make the operation with the

bucket easier the vehicle weight – carrier load capacity has great

signiﬁcance. However, you should be aware of the forces which act

during operation of heavy vehicle with suspended bucket Reading and

analyze Instruction Manual will guarantee safe use and reduce the

results of operation errors – it will lower a risk for operators.

Table No. 3. Theoretical force Fmax [tonnes] which may act on

fork clamped to the vehicle with the weight of 5 000 kg with

changeable speed and breaking distances.

The data concerning forces acting on the vehicle – bedding

bucket assembly will require high level of qualiﬁcations from

persons operating the machine and appeal to consciousness of

hazards appearing during operation of bedding buckets during

fodder transportation.

It is essential to choose the safe vehicle driving speed in order to

guarantee that the operation does not constitute the risk for environment

and operating personnel – the vehicle's operator.

It is very important for the user to ensure an even distribution of forces,

ensuring symmetrical extraction and distribution of the material. Don't

operate the bedding bucket at the time of asymmetrical load (of one side).

To prolong operation life of the bedding bucket you should remember that

the forces acting during operation both during loading and emptying were

evenly distributed.

Fig.4 Determining stability parameters

1. The accessory weight together with load should be added

to the value at load

2. Weight of ﬁxed or ﬂuid weights on the centre of front or

rear wheels should be added to the values MF, MR or MT

3. In case of non-balanced trailer, value „c” is the distance

between the rear axle centre line and point of hitch, value „d”

is equal to 0, while BR is the vertical load of trailer on hitch

Minimum load of front axle of loaded tractor:

20% of gross vehicle weight MPT Minimum load of the

rear axle of the tractor's laden:

45% of gross vehicle weight MPT

Required Ballast in front Required ballast on the rear

BRr – ballast required on the front

during transport of BF load on the rear

BRr – ballast required in the rear during

transport

of BF load in the front

MT · e = MF · b e = (MF · b)/MT MT · (b – e) = MR · b

BR · (c + d) - (MT · e) + (MPF · b) = BFr

· (a +b) BF · a - MT · (b - e) + (MPR · b) = BRr · (b + c + d)

MPF > 0,2 · MT

Maximum permissible weight of front

axle must be greater than 0.2 × vehicle

curb weight without load

MPR > 0.45 · MT

Maximum permissible weight of the rear axle

must be greater than 0.45 × vehicle curb weight

without load

BFr > [BR·(c+d) - (MF·b) + (0,2·MT·b)] /

(a+b) BRr > [(BF·a) - (MR·b) + (0,45·MT·b)] / (b +c +d)

5.1. Bucket installation

Make sure that all mounting elements of the vehicle and the

bucket are matched appropriately to guarantee safe assembly

and operation. In case of the lack of clarity you should deﬁnitely

contact the manufacturer of the vehicle or the bucket.

As there is a need to connect three feeding bucket systems to the

vehicle, the assembly of the bucket should be done in the following

order:

I. Assembly of mechanical system of the vehicle and the bucket.

Depending on the type of fastening system, you should provide

original protections. Every time when you assembly the system you

should check the wear of connecting elements: bolts, journals, cotter

pins, pins and screw connections.

II. Assembly of the power hydraulic system

The bucket is equipped with pipes (hoses), which need to be

connected to connector pipes of the vehicle power hydraulic system.

Please, make sure that the pipes (hoses) are run properly and check

hydraulic connectors cleanliness. Connection should be made in

accordance with schematic drawing 6

III. Electric system installation

To control of feeding bucket work the electric system is used, which

is connected with hydraulic solenoid valve. The pilot of the system in

the vehicle cabin is placed, power supply plug is connected to 7 - pin

socket. Please make sure that the electric conductors are run securely

Table no. 5. Calculations of maximum permissible weights

You should read the Instruction Manual of the vehicle (tractor), get

to know maximum axle load and fulﬁl the below conditions, so as to

achieve:

MPF < MPFmax of the tractor

MPR < MPRmax of the tractor

MPT < MPTmax of the tractor

MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE

LOAD OF FRONT AXLE MPF
