In the present investigation a contribution is offered in order to improve the knowledge of the influence of both speed and tyre type on a medium power tractor vibrations. The vibrations transmitted from the ground to the driver’s seat of a ballasted wheeled tractor of medium power, equipped with a front suspension axle and a suspended cab, have been measured and analyzed. Two different tyres, namely, types A and B, at two different forward speeds, 11.1 and 13.9 m s-1, have been experimentally tested, during the simulation of the front agricultural implements transportation on a rectilinear plane tract of a conglomerate bituminous closed track. This work has been done by applying standards recommended by ISO 2631/1, 1997. Results were obtained on the... |

In this paper, according to ISO 2631/1, 1997, the influence of the mechanical vibrations on human health is evaluated and assessed with four methods: the health guidance caution zones (HGCZ), the estimated vibration dose value (eVDV), the fourth power vibration dose value (VDV), a combination of various methods presented in literature. The normative refers to the HGCZ, which involves the average RMS vibration emission level and its exposure time during a given working day. Values of crest factor for the operator seat showed that Z-axis was the more solicited, even if all the crest factor values are below 9. Results of mechanical vibration in respect of comfort and health, according with the method of the HGCZ, showed that only case B, at higher forward... |
