The diesel oil tank has a high capacity, precise liquidometer, and safety and convenient oil filler.

The route of transmission of power: Engine→→Driving pump→→Pressure oil→→Motor→→Reducer of wheel edges→→Wheel;

Engine→→Steering and Lifting pump→→Pressure oil→→Steering and suspension cylinder→→Gear rack steering mechanism or suspension mechanism.

The mechanical energy of engine can translate into hydraulic system pressure energy, and the engine cascade closed pump/open pump/ heat dissipation gear wheel pump directly. Other wise, for braking system, the engine has a power take-off hole to provide power for air compressor to achieve braking function. The hydraulic pipes install 10micron filter, when stucked by impurities, the control panel has clues, please change the filer in time.

5. Hydraulic system

The vehicle hydraulic system consist of Motion drive, Steering, Suspension, Heat dissipation and other systems.

The drive hydraulic system consist of Variable pump, High speed motor, Hub reduction gear and combined to a closed system. Adopt hydrostatic drive, consist of Hub reduction gear and Hydraulic motor, every hydraulic drive motor adopt respectively control ways to control the slip resistance of drive axle, to avoid some fault of the axle.

The drive hydraulic control system is closed system,consist of Variable pump, Slippage pump, Spill valve, Control valve and Cooling system to become a closed circulation, so the structure is compact and the transmission performance is steady. According to the vehicle actual load and switch the gears by the operation handle to change the displacement of motor, to meet the heavy and light weight corresponding speed requirements. Also through pedal plate can change the rotate speed of the motor while changing the working parameter of electronic control variable main pump.

The power parts integrate into the front end of the power unit, and the route of drive system power delivery is Engine-Variable displacement piston pump-Hydraulic motor-Hub reduction gear-Drive wheel.

Drive axle draft

The drive axle is made by our factory, it adopt the frame structure, the middle axle hole is linked with balance beam, the safety factor of structure design is over 3 times, limited lateral oscillation angle is ±4°, the reduction gear and motor use international famous brand Rexroth or Sauer.

Steering, suspension hydraulic system is an open system, every steering suspension achieved the precise close-cycle control by steering oil cylinder drive and microcomputer. The suspension adopt hydraulic suspension, the lifting or leveling function is controlled by handle control magnetic valve operation.

The cooling system is that independent gear pump drive the radiator to make the hydraulic oil radiate heat in circulation.

The design of hydraulic pipes system is excellent, it has a good discharge capacity and heat-sinking capability, also the pipes has a strict and efficient filter system to guarantee the clearing of oil pipes, and it can protect most of hydraulic elements. The piping layout is very clear to distinguish and repair also will never twist together.

The hydraulic oil tank has a big volume to guarantee the oil mass and heat radiating area. The filling and pouring oil month all has self-closing valve filter which is convenient to change and no need oiling.

The position of every pressure gage and oil tank gauge is convenient for watching.

In the main joints of the pipes, it sets up pressure gage to make convenient for maintain and repair.

We guarantee no leaking situation in the hydraulic system

6. Steering system

Every steering axle can adjust the turn angle respectively.

The control system can do the real-time monitoring and control every axle`s turn angle to guarantee every steering axle turning is in the allowable range, then to guarantee the tyre do the pure rolling all the time. As a part of self-diagnostics system, it can analysis the fault and change the broken parts in the shortest time!

The system sets up turning angle error self-adjust program, when the error is 2°, the vehicle is keep walking; if it is 3-6°, the steering speed of suspension will slow down; but if the error is 8°, the shipyard transporter will stop running.

The steering mechanism can guarantee every steering axle has ±105°rotation.

Installed electric multi-steering modes system can guarantee more different steering modes as the below picture shows:

7. Suspension lifting system

 Consist of multi-independent hydraulic suspension.

 Full hydraulic suspension can make all the axle share the loading.

 Relative to the vehicle frame, the full suspension are three or four bearing points.
