Lightweight Design for a New Tracked Triangular Wheel Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new tracked triangular wheel structure was introduced. A whole tracked triangular wheeled vehicle model was built in multi-body dynamics simulation software RecurDyn, and its climbing obstacle performance on the dry soil road was simulated. The author put the simulation results as loading conditions of finite element model. Finite element calculation and lightweight design for tracked triangular wheel base frame were completed. The results showed that the weight of the base frame reduced by 69.8%, the structure properties of the base frame improved, and the lightweight design goal was achieved.
