Small roller manufacturers analyze the difference between three-wheel roller and double-wheel roller

Three-wheeled rollers are static rollers, which do not have vibration function and completely rely on their own weight to compact the road surface. Therefore, they are generally relatively large and are large-scale equipment used to compact the roadbed or base layer. This type of large-scale road roller has only one form of car type, not a hand-held type. Two-wheel rollers are generally vibration rollers. Among them, there are ride-on rollers and walk-behind rollers. Due to the vibration function of this type of roller, the tonnage is relatively small and belongs to the scope of small equipment, which is generally referred to as small rollers. Small road rollers are mainly used to compact asphalt concrete and other oil surfaces. They have vibrations. Each of the two wheels has a water tank. Water can be sprayed on the wheels to prevent the asphalt concrete from sticking to the wheels for a long time during the compaction process. It is not easy to clean and cause rust and other damage to the equipment.

Black smoke problem of mini excavator engine

As the power system of construction machinery, diesel engines provide the power required to operate machinery. Obstacles affect normal production. Therefore, observing the color of exhaust gas is very important for diagnosing diesel engine faults. The normal color of diesel fuel after complete combustion is usually light gray or dark gray. Diesel in operation may cause abnormal conditions such as black smoke, white smoke and blue smoke. This is the condition for determining the failure of the diesel engine. Diesel is a complex hydrocarbon. The unburned diesel fuel injected into the combustion chamber is decomposed at a high temperature. When discharged, it is discharged together with the exhaust gas and becomes black smoke. Black smoke is a sign of incomplete combustion of fuel in the combustion chamber. The wear of the piston ring and cylinder liner will result in insufficient compression pressure, which will change the normal mixture ratio at the end of the cylinder compression stroke, thereby burning fuel and carbon under oxygen-free conditions. The fuel injector does not atomize or drip, so the fuel cannot be completely mixed with the air in the cylinder. (1) Because the advance angle of the fuel is too large, the fuel is quickly injected into the combustion chamber. The low pressure and high temperature in the cylinder cannot ignite the fuel. When the piston moves upward, the cylinder reaches a certain pressure and temperature, and the combustible mixture burns. (2) The fuel supply advance angle is too small, and the cylinder fuel is too slow. Before forming a combustible mixture, some fuel must be separated or discharged. The fuel discharged with the exhaust gas decomposes at high temperature to form black smoke. As more oil enters the cylinder, more gas cannot be completely burned, thereby reducing fuel oil. In addition, heavy workload, poor fuel quality and low working temperature will exhaust all exhaust gas. The lubricating oil enters the cylinder, is heated and evaporates into blue oil and gas. This is the introduction to the black smoke of the micro-excavator engine, I hope it will be helpful to you.

Filter cleaning and function analysis of small excavators

1 Install correctly to prevent air from entering the cylinder without filtering When inspecting the air filter, the gasket on the filter element must be firmly installed. If the gasket is damaged or damaged, replace it with a new one.  2 When replacing the new filter element, the original filter element should be used instead of the inferior filter element. Generally, high-quality and poor-quality filter elements can be identified from the packaging and appearance, and can also be inspected after installation. If a new filter element is installed, the CO emission exceeds the standard, and the CO emission standard when the filter element is not installed indicates that the filter element has poor air permeability and is unacceptable. 3 The filter element uses microporous filter paper and the surface is treated. When the engine is running, the air filters dust through the micropores to ensure that clean air enters the cylinder. In use, a layer of dust adheres around the filter element. When cleaning, do not use water or oil to prevent oil from entering the filter element. There are two common cleaning methods: (1) Tapping method, remove the filter element from the housing, gently tap the end surface of the filter paper to make the dust fall off. Do not touch the outer surface of the filter element to avoid damage to the filter element. (2) Blowing method, that is, use compressed air to blow the air in the filter element to blow off the dust. To prevent damage to the filter paper, the compressed air pressure should not exceed 0.2 to 0.3 MPa. 4 Clean and replace the filter regularly.  In use, the air filter element should be cleaned regularly in accordance with the vehicle maintenance regulations to avoid increasing intake resistance, reducing engine power, and increasing fuel consumption due to excessive dust adhesion on the filter element . If the filter element is damaged, it should be replaced in time. Specific analysis of the filtering function of small excavators: The function test of the filter element has the following four aspects: 1 Flow resistance test, which measures the pressure loss of air activity. In the two original filter power experiments, you can calculate the dust collection capacity of the filter. The dust removal rate of traditional filter elements should be 99% or higher. Cumulative dust accumulation and cumulative output experiment. The accumulation of excess dust in the filter element causes clogging and increases air intake resistance. Reducing engine output to 5% or reducing fuel consumption to 5% are the limits required for cleaning or replacing filter elements. In the original suction resistance test, the increased intake air volume must not exceed 3.2 kPa, otherwise the filter cartridge (the intake air volume, the additional filter element is the air intake volume required by the engine) will not be satisfied. It will pass the air intake filter and pressure engine requirements. Export. Together with the directional and cabin intake temperature and intake temperature, there is a connection close to the barrier, away from the barrier, intake manifold and intake requirements and high temperature components or as much as possible, but also avoid high temperature gas from entering the cabin intake cabin hot air Smooth discharge, so the cabin temperature can be kept as low as possible. In addition to the engine itself, the engine can also ensure normal operation. The ability to ensure production quality is the power source of the hydraulic excavator, and the engine is protected during scientific and reasonable maintenance. Scientific and reasonable maintenance is based on the estimation of preventive and preventive maintenance based on the actual operating conditions of the engine. After the engine inhales, exhausts and maintains the four thermal curve system thermal interaction analysis components, the interaction of these four aspects is judged to be repaired or other components are not replaced by the original refuge to restore performance and extend engine life.

Maintenance rules and skills of mini excavators

When disassembling and repairing confession and confession, many technical elements must be considered. The degree of wear of each component is related to daily protection, operating skills, working conditions, the quality of lubricating oil and hydraulic oil, and the frequency of replacement. There are two important reasons for judging the wear of the excavator. One is the binding of parts, the shape and specifications of the excavator, and the other is the use and pollution of hydraulic oil. The protection of the machine can be punctual based on working hours. The excavator repair shop reminds you that it is necessary to strictly abide by the following rules when repairing: (1) Perform operation inspection and external inspection before disassembly and protection, and make inspection records. (2) Classify the removed parts and prepare necessary things and spare parts. (3) In principle, do not disassemble the hydraulic system before observing abnormal phenomena. Excavator repair 1. Check before you start Check the coolant level of the excavator (add water); Check the oil level of the excavator engine and refuel; check the oil level of the excavator (refuel); Check the V hydraulic oil level (add hydraulic oil); check whether the air filter of the excavator is blocked; Check whether the excavator wire rope or horn is normal; Check the smooth condition of the mini excavator bucket; Check the water and sediment in the excavator's oil-water separator.

Clutch operation process of crawler transport vehicle

The operation process of the clutch can be divided into the separation process and the engagement process. In the separation process, the clutch pedal is stepped on, and the free gap of the clutch is eliminated in the free stroke, and then the separation gap occurs in the working stroke, and the clutch is separated.  In the process of engagement, gradually loosen the clutch pedal, the pressure plate moves forward under the effect of the tension spring, firstly eliminate the separation gap, and effect sufficient pressure on the pressure plate, driven plate and flywheel operating surface; Afterwards, the separation bearing moves backward under the effect of the reset spring, a free gap occurs, and the clutch is engaged. Clutch adjustment: During the operation of the clutch, the driven disc will become thinner due to wear and tear, which will reduce the free gap, which will eventually affect the normal engagement of the clutch, so the clutch needs to be adjusted after a period of operation. The intention of the clutch adjustment is to ensure a suitable free gap, and the position and method of the clutch adjustment depends on the detailed crawler truck model. The pressure plate is an automatic part of the clutch, which always rotates with the flywheel. Generally, it can be driven by a boss, key or pin to make it rotate together with the flywheel. At the same time, the pressure plate can move backward relative to the flywheel to separate the clutch. The driven disk is mainly composed of the driven disk body, the conflict sheet and the driven disk hub. In the process of clutch separation to engagement, the conflicting disc, the flywheel and the pressure plate will conflict, and a lot of heat will be generated. These heat needs to be dissipated in time to prevent the conflicting plates from being damaged due to excessive temperature. Therefore, windows are provided on the clutch cover, and some are also equipped with air guide plates to enhance internal ventilation and heat dissipation. The most common compression structures of conflict clutches are spiral tension springs and diaphragm tension springs. Diaphragm tension spring clutches have two construction methods: push type and pull type. The helical tension spring clutch is divided into a peripheral spring and a center tension spring according to the way the tension spring presses on the pressure plate. The operation organization of the clutch is divided into mechanical operation organization and hydraulic operation organization. In order to reduce the required clutch pedal force without increasing the pedal stroke due to the excessive transmission ratio of the transmission equipment, the clutch pedal is adopted on the crawler truck. Power-assisted equipment. In addition, there is also a pneumatic clutch operation organization that uses the engine's air compressor as the primary operating power, and the driver's body is used as an auxiliary or backup operating power, which is mostly related to the pneumatic brake system of the crawler truck or other pneumatics. The equipment shares a set of compressed air source.

Parking skills and safe operation methods for small rollers

Small rollers are one of many rollers. This type of roller has a relatively small appearance. In order to make this type of roller better use its advantages, you also need to master some of the parking skills of small rollers when parking. Understand, then don’t worry, because next, our manufacturer will tell you about the parking skills of small rollers. I hope you can read it carefully. 1. Parking skills of small rollers: 1. The parking position should be stable. When the small roller stops running, we need to consider the related placement matters-this seemingly simple step will not only affect the next stage of work if you operate it carelessly, but also It may cause some damage to the small roller, so when parking, be sure to choose a flat and stable place to prevent other external forces or careless operation from causing some safety accidents. 2. Precautions for parking on slopes. Generally speaking, small road rollers cannot be parked on slopes. This poses a big threat to later operations and related safety protection. But sometimes due to other reasons or construction needs, we need to park the small roller on the slope. At this time, the relevant protective measures must be in place. The nailing of the wooden piles must be stable and solid, if it is raining and snowing If it is parked in the weather or winter, the corresponding anti-freezing and anti-skid measures should be taken. 2. Safe operation method of small roller: 1. Remind you that before officially operating the hand-held roller, we need to check whether there are any abnormalities in the relevant operating parts of the hand-held roller, and also observe the surrounding working environment; Also pay attention to the operation of the corresponding parts of the walk-behind roller, only in this way can you better grasp the overall operation of the walk-behind roller, so as to carry out the corresponding debugging work, pay attention to these to better realize the operation of the walk-behind roller The safety and reliability. 2. It is forbidden to operate the vibrating device during high-speed rolling operation. 3. Remind you that it is strictly forbidden to use the hand-held roller to start vibrating on hard pavement, so as not to damage the vibration damping device or other parts.
