Optimization of Agriculture Tractor Seat Vibration Using Passive Suspension System and Modelling and Simulating in Ansys
Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2021, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
Operators of agricultural tractor perform various tasks at work that expose them to a variety of risk factors. During their work, agricultural tractor operators are exposed to different negative influences, due to which vibrations are especially harmful. Long term exposure of tractor driver to vibrations induced by agricultural tractor operations may lead to various health problems. It is widely recognised that agricultural tractor operators are exposed to high level of whole body vibration WBV during specific farm operations. WBV may leads to Low back Pain LBP and spinal cord related diseases, therefore the objective of the study is to reduce the level of ride vibrations experienced by tractor seats appear to be necessary and some possible methods of achieving significant improvements. In the present study, The vibration transmitted through the seat of a four wheel drive tractor equipped with front suspension axle and shock absorber for the implement, were measured using OR34 2, 4 Channel FFT analyser and then analysed in terms of root mean square RMS accelerations according to the ISO standard. Several tests were conducted in different conditions considering the type of operation harrowing, ploughing and cultivating at different road conditions on road, sugarcane field and flat field with two different running speeds. Then we developed a new suspension system for tractors seat using spring and dampers to reduce the vibration energy and frequencies up to a suitable range for the operator. The vehicle dynamics model of tractor with tandem suspension is modelled and simulated in analysis software ANSYS and optimize the parameters of the seat to achieve rms acceleration in the range of -˜Health guidance caution zone’ HGCZ so that it gives the ride comfort for the operator.
