How to make a caterpillar swamp do-it-yourself drawings. Do-it-yourself caterpillar all-terrain vehicle

Ever since the phrase about the state of Russian roads, the problem has not become less urgent. As before, in some godforsaken corners of the country, people generally forgot to dream about asphalt pavement. The only way out is to transfer to all-terrain vehicles. Alas, the models offered by car factories are not able to satisfy the needs of motorists from the outback. Ordinary people need a small, economical, and, of course, cheap vehicle off-road. Only in a home workshop from improvised materials can such a dream come true.

Materials and components for an all-terrain vehicle on tracks

It would be fair to warn in advance that power units removed from vehicles are the cause of increased fuel consumption. However, compared to motorcycle engines have significant power reserves. The manufacture of caterpillars also entails additional costs.

The body of a homemade all-terrain vehicle is best constructed from aluminum or duralumin sheet. It will be necessary to purchase triplex glass, liquid rubber (can be replaced with silicone grease). The main material for the tracks will be a sheet (or strip) of rubber. One pair of bridges borrowed from Soviet cars - Zaporozhets or Zhiguli.

Can be distinguished important points, which should be taken into account in the process of creating an all-terrain vehicle on tracks.

To homemade body requirements such as strength, tightness and streamlining with oncoming air flow while driving are made. As far as geometry is concerned, best solution there will be a body resembling a flat-bottomed boat.

In view of the fact that you have to travel around (more precisely, “caterpillar”) wetlands or even overcome shallow water bodies, the body should contain a minimum of seams. In other words, instead of welding, a single sheet must be bent, giving the desired shape. The metal sheet is used to manufacture not only the cabin, but also all compartments, including the one intended for the engine. To exclude the harmful effect of water, moisture-proof material (for example, rubber) reliably covers the joints and fastenings of the nodes. Particular care should be taken to protect the battery and electrical wiring from moisture as much as possible. It is better if special mines are allocated for them.

The rigidity of the design of the cross-country vehicle should be provided by a frame made of steel pipes. Bridges and the engine will be installed and fixed on a frame made of copper pipes.

In the body, make holes designed to bring out the bridges. The joints of the axle shafts and the body (in the holes) should be thoroughly sealed with rubber sleeves.

The highlight of this all-terrain vehicle is the presence of a caterpillar, without which it is difficult to imagine movement on any off-road and even swimming. The treadmill is cut out of sheet rubber and looped. When calculating the dimensions of the caterpillar, the distance between the shafts that are leading is measured. An important element that makes it easy to overcome any dirt is the lugs attached to the outside of the track with rivets. And if they are made in the form of small blades, then the lugs will play the role of blades when the caterpillar is immersed in water. Such an idea is not difficult to implement, having a thick aluminum sheet at hand. Next, you need to measure the width of the wheels. This value will be needed when calculating the distance between adjacent elements of the limiters, which are attached with inside caterpillars. The center of each wheel as here http://modelist-konstruktor.com/ must exactly match the center line of the track and thus the wheel will be located between the stops.

The tensioned state of the tracks can be ensured in the following way: fill the space between the bridge wheels with the driven wheels.

The final stage - cabin equipment laminated glass(triplex or duplex) with rubber fasteners. ATVs - homemade tracks, the drawings of which are in this article, are popular with creative people.

Ivan Sardaev, a 67-year-old resident of the city of Topki, took up the invention and creation of various vehicles almost 20 years ago.
In 1993, together with his wife, daughter and son, he returned from Vorkuta to the city of his childhood and built a house in four months. It turned out to be large, spacious, with an area of ​​150 squares.

Well, about four years after we moved in and settled down, I got tired of removing snow in the winter after a snowstorm: you work with a shovel, your hands get tired. Like it or not, involuntarily you begin to think with your head, - the pensioner laughs.

Snowplow Ivan Sardaev.


In the beginning there were scooters

Ivan Vasilievich admits: he was fascinated by technology from childhood. As a child, he assembled scooters, sometimes on bearings, sometimes with wheels from a baby stroller. But it was back in 1997 that the tricycle snowplow became his first full-fledged invention. She was unusual - she had two wheels in front, and one - controlled - behind. As the inventor now recalls, the car was weak - it could only rake snow on the paths. He decided to improve it and assembled a model a little more complicated, then another. And then he got so involved in the process that he began to create snow blowers with buckets and rotary augers. And not only them.

Topkin's very first snow blower was three-wheeled.



In 2007, Ivan Sardaev even published an article about three of his models in the Modeler-Constructor magazine, and two years later, about the security system. He invented it and mounted it in his house, if necessary, she transmits a signal to his mobile phone.

Several bucket snow blowers, a pair of auger machines and a pair of snowmobiles on pneumatics - this is an incomplete list of mobile equipment that Ivan Vasilyevich assembled until 2013. And all this in his spare time - despite his age, he still fixes TVs for people. And four years ago, his son gave him a computer, and when the pensioner mastered the Internet, new ideas appeared. One of the last was the idea to make an all-terrain vehicle on a caterpillar track with your own hands.

And the roof is from Moskvich

He began to implement the plan in 2015, and to create unusual car it took Ivan Sardaev a year and a half. Most of the details in the S-10 all-terrain vehicle, the inventor gave this name to his offspring - from the Zhiguli of various models. The rear axle, motor and gearbox are from the “classics”, the rollers in the tracks are the wheels from the eleventh VAZ model. Many parts were collected from neighbors, who, by the way, admire the golden hands of the master, or were selected at car parsing and metal collection points. The roof of the all-terrain vehicle is from the Moskvich, but the caterpillars had to be thought through and assembled by myself to the last detail. For them, the inventor was even forced to buy a conveyor belt in a store.
Pneumatic snowmobile is another machine assembled by hand telemaster from Topok.


In total, Ivan Vasilievich spent more than 30 thousand rubles on certain purchases for his offspring.

Most of all I had to tinker with the caterpillars, - the pensioner admits. - It was a very painstaking work that required special care. After all, there’s something you bend wrong, you miss a little and that’s it, either the teeth will cling, or the tape will move out, and in both cases the car will not go.

This is how the all-terrain vehicle looked in the summer of 2016.



Currently, the Topkinian is testing his all-terrain vehicle. On a flat road, it can move at a speed of 35 - 40 kilometers per hour, and on virgin snow, the speed is reduced by about half. By the way, instead of a steering wheel, it has two control levers, like a tractor, and also a double all-terrain vehicle for the driver and passenger - it is always warm, the interior is heated by two stoves.

So far, Ivan Sardaev does not go further than the courtyard and the street where his house is located. But in the future, after the car has been tested at other times of the year, he hopes to register it, as it should be. But the creator does not want to sell it, even for 350 thousand rubles, in which such equipment was priced on one of the sites. You need such an all-terrain vehicle yourself.
Tracked all-terrain vehicle C-10 Kuzbass pensioner. Ivan Sardaev worked on the all-terrain vehicle for a year and a half. The VAZ-2103 engine, the cab is the top of the Moskvich-2140 cab.

» today we will consider a detailed step by step instructions for the assembly of a home-made caterpillar all-terrain vehicle "Ulan-3" This all-terrain vehicle was assembled by craftsman Alexander Ulanov from the Sverdlovsk region, the village of Novaya Lyalya. This tracked all-terrain vehicle is assembled entirely from components and assemblies of domestic production, borrowed from cars and motorcycles, the only engine was bought a new "Lifan" 22 l / s. assembled from a conveyor belt, and metal corners were used as tracks, the caterpillar is connected to each other through a metal loop. Wheels from VAZ are installed as road wheels. Gearbox from a motorcycle « « Cardan shaft from a potato digger with a gear ratio of 1.25. Planetary brake with gear ratio 4 to disc brake. The weight of the machine is about 650 kg.

Main bridge.


Reducer and planetary gear.

Do-it-yourself side-turning all-terrain vehicle: drawings, manufacturing photos

The craftsman built with his own hands a wheeled all-terrain vehicle for fishing and hunting trips through forest impassability and swamps. The design feature of the all-terrain vehicle is in the presence of automatic tire inflation and side turn.

We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the device of an all-terrain vehicle on low-pressure tires in more detail.

The frame is made of 76 mm diameter tube with a wall thickness of 3.5 mm.

For transmission, I purchased such 16V-1 circuits.

We also needed gearboxes from the 5B-S walk-behind tractor.

The figure shows a sketch of the hub.

Gear ratios:

  • from the engine to the gearbox 1-1.45,
  • reduced 1 to 24,
  • increased 1 to 11,
  • back 1 to 17.

On the gearbox, the leading star has 9 teeth and goes to the driven one by 35 teeth.

Gearbox dimensions.

Drawings of the hubs, holes for tire inflation will be additionally made.

Hub axis drawings. Steel 45 was used. The diagrams do not indicate an air channel perpendicular to the axis, the size was also increased from 28 to 45 mm, there was a decrease between the bearings.

Lifan engine installed.

The swap implementation scheme looks like this.

Welded exhaust system.

The figure shows a diagram of the direction of the exhaust.


A boat pear is used to inflate tires, so nipples were made for it.

Fastening the driven stars on the hubs.

In total, six similar parts were welded to the hub, and the dimensions were changed upwards, that is, instead of 8, 10 were made:

Swapping was performed in this way:

To combat the rotation of the tires, the width of the discs was cut to 40 cm, teeth were also welded from the electrodes, and then the tires were seated using construction sealant. The author also began work on the tires themselves, eliminated punctures and cuts with the help of piercing with an awl and sealant.

During the opening of the hunting season, the all-terrain vehicle was used a lot. There were some breakdowns, in particular, the engine overheated, the chain lock opened and the chamber nipple broke due to tire rotation. But pumping exhaust helped to get to the place of repair. All wheels were pumped up by 0.1 atmospheres.

As a result, about 10 liters of fuel were consumed for 42 kilometers, which is quite a bit for an all-terrain vehicle.

Tire inflation is used quite often, especially in the off-season, when temperatures fluctuate from +20 to -15 degrees, which greatly affects tire pressure.

A single boat is also transported in the trunk, which is also very convenient to pump up with exhaust.

2QM.ru: Do-it-yourself dumps for UAZ (drawings)

An SUV in the household of the owner of a suburban area, taking into account the quality of the roads, is an excellent help, and sometimes even a necessity. Under the hood of such a unit there are almost a hundred, and sometimes more working “horses”, which, coupled with an impressive mass and driving characteristics, becomes a serious argument in the fight against off-road.

Why not use this power to improve the traffic situation in the local area in the winter? Manufacturers have long been preoccupied with suitable attachments, producing a snow plow for UAZ and other SUV models popular in our country. Why not save money and make your own blade model, given that handicraft options turn out to be just as good, and sometimes even better than factory ones?

Factory option

You should not reinvent the wheel, it is much easier to peep how to make a dump on an UAZ from manufacturers. Most likely, it will not be possible to completely copy the factory suspended dumps, but it is quite possible to take some models as a basis. In addition, a detailed study of proven options will avoid many mistakes in the design and manufacture of your own snow shovel.

  • Dump dimensions. The minimum blade width for sale is 1900 mm, this is understandable, the wheels are located at a distance of up to 1.8 m on the outside for different models. The blade should cover this distance with a margin even in an inclined position, a width of 2-2.1 m would be ideal.
  • Swivel mechanism. Different models provide finger fixation in the center or the use of additional rods. With such dimensions of the dump, it is better to use additional reinforcement.
  • Fastening to the car. This unit provides the ability to lift the shovel vertically and sometimes protect the steering rods.
  • Lifting mechanism. From the simplest leg for lifting the blade when moving backwards to winches with manual or electric control.
  • In order to cushion the dumps on the UAZ in the event of a collision with serious obstacles, you can make it movable and equip it with springs.
  • Design

    Much depends on the availability of materials and technical skills. It is more reliable and easier to make a blade without a swivel mechanism, thus saving a little on materials and significantly reducing the production time, but this will reduce its scope. On the other hand, the rotary mechanism can become the most vulnerable spot design, its execution requires a certain margin of safety at the fixation nodes. The working surface of the blade also requires reinforcement, it is important to monitor the weight of individual parts. It is desirable that the blade can be mounted and dismounted by one person.

    To protect the surface to be cleaned, a rubber strip should be used, the fastening of which should be detachable so that the rubber can be replaced as it wears out. In the place where the blade is attached to the vehicle, it is necessary to provide for a possible sharp collision of the blade with an obstacle. Mounting points should not be located in front of important parts of the car.

    Material selection

    At this stage, the choice always remains with the performer, you can only advise or suggest where it is easiest to find suitable parts. 200 liter barrels have proven themselves as a material for a dump shovel, but, given the planned dimensions, 2 barrels or additional structural reinforcement will be required. Square or rectangular pipes can be used as guides and reinforcing ribs, it is also possible to use a rolling angle, a thin channel or I-beam jumpers.

    For adjusting the angle of inclination of the blade, jumpers can be used with turnbuckles or pipes of different diameters with holes for fixing pins. When using a winch to control blade lifting, additional material will be required to equip the site for the winch itself and the system of blocks, if necessary.

    Homemade dumps on UAZ in the network

    On the net, you can find many examples where artisanal craftsmen demonstrate the assembled dump on the UAZ with their own hands. The drawings of talented craftsmen are very diverse, some offer simplified options, others use various modifications that are sometimes more successful than factory products.

    Main stages and nodes

    Where to start work in order to realize the planned dump on the UAZ with your own hands? The drawings must be made taking into account the model of the SUV, and there must always be some margin in size so that possible shortcomings can be leveled on the spot. First of all, it is best to equip the place where the structure is attached to the car. It can be either simple fixed brackets, or a whole platform like a “kenguryatnik” to accommodate not only a blade, but also a winch with a block system. The site can be made both in a permanent design and as a removable structure, which is preferable, since it does not spoil appearance car.

    Next, you can start manufacturing the most massive part of the blade - a working shovel. It is best to choose the dimensions from the above written 2 x 0.6-0.8 m. Too large a plow cleans the snow better, but it will be inconvenient during installation and transportation. At the next stage, it is better to fix the blade in a working vertical position and so attach the remaining elements to it. It must be remembered that even simple blades on a UAZ without a swivel mechanism must be vertically movable, otherwise the car can be severely damaged during operation. The last step is to make control and rotary elements and attach them to the structure.

    Lifting mechanisms

    You can see options where a manual drum winch is used as a lifting mechanism, and it is controlled by a person located on the front platform. This is not very safe, it would be better to raise and lower such dumps on the UAZ after the car has completely stopped.

    Using electric winches is much more convenient and safer, but not everyone is ready to spend money on such equipment. The most budget option would be a special stand that works when reversing auto, and to constantly hold the blade in the upper position in the transport mode, you can use a turnbuckle.

    Conclusion

    The work of the master is afraid, they say. Do-it-yourself blade for UAZ, or factory assembled, will help you use your SUV not only as a means of transportation, but also as a faithful assistant in the household.

    Homemade SUV

    Many of us at least once in our lives have puzzled over the idea of ​​making a car. Himself. Someone in childhood tried to build a car out of cardboard, someone devoted all their free time to this, turning the construction of cars with their own hands not even into a hobby, but into the meaning of life.

    Here it is necessary to distinguish a little between concepts. For some, building a car means welding a couple of channels for half a liter, attaching an engine from a Cossack, wheels from a seeder and a bridge from a ZIL thrown into scrap - a kind of under-tractor that almost any village can boast of. Such "auto-lizards", as a rule, have a real "bestial" appetite and do not live long. For others, building a car is a matter of several months, sometimes years, painstaking work with a scientific approach, calculations and careful manufacture of every detail.

    In particular, making an SUV with your own hands requires doubly effort. Of course, if you want to get not only a bunch of iron that looks like a car from afar, but a completely efficient car that overcomes off-road, with moderate fuel consumption and a decent exterior.

    The project below is actually implemented, operating and created on the basis of a conventional passenger car. When creating an SUV, you need to understand a few clear rules for yourself, the observance of which will be the key to the success of the entire event.

    First, remember - the car must be a frame. We will not delve into the issues of types of frames - flat and spatial, just remember - if a car has a frame, then it will be able to endure serious loads, live a long time and it will be easier for it to overcome impassability.

    Frame this car consists of two longitudinal spars located with some convergence, as well as three transverse beams.

    Spars have a rather complex section. They are based on two 032 mm water pipes welded together, to which a box of two L-shaped bent steel sheets is also attached by welding from above. The height of the section of the spar ranges from 120 mm in the central part of the frame to 80 mm at the extremities.

    The square cross beams are welded from 2 mm thick steel sheet, and the front beam also serves as a reserve tank for oil, so it has a drain and filler holes with plugs. In addition to the crossbars, two diaphragms bent from steel sheet give additional rigidity to the frame (front 2 mm thick, rear 1.6 mm).

    Not very easy, right? The drawing will facilitate the perception of the "whole picture". The frame of this design is quite reliable.

    The engine was taken from a VAZ-2101 car along with a gearbox. The air and oil filters have been slightly modified. Of course, the "triple" motor will be somewhat better, and if you want to add power, you can install the motor from the "Niva", but that's another story.

    The transmission and chassis were used from the GAZ-69 with the use of individual parts from the UAZ-469. In this car, a home-made cardan is also used - between the gearbox and the razdatka. Cardan half coupling and crosspiece - from GAZ-69.

    Next are the springs. You can, of course, use springs from UAZ, but in this case, the car will turn out to be too hard. The rear leaf springs of the GAZ-24 Volga car are recommended for use, but even in this case the move will be somewhat harsh. To improve the softness of the move, home-made earrings were used - 20 mm longer than on the Volga - this size is not a panacea, it was obtained experimentally. So it has the right to life and independent selection - so you can achieve the desired softness. Also, shock absorbers from GAZ-24 are installed on the car. The springs are installed parallel to the frame spars, that is, at an angle to the axis of the machine.

    Body. In the manufacture of the body of the SUV, sheet steel 1.0-1.2 mm was used. It is recommended to assemble the body from small, up to 1 m long, panels and connect them using spot welding. So body parts are easier to process and give them the desired shape.

    You can make a body of fiberglass - by gluing. In any case, the authors of the project used material that was easier for them to work with.

    Body work, it was decided to start with the doors. Such a decision can also be put at the forefront. Those who already have some experience in auto construction know that making doors is one of the most difficult operations. Therefore, it is not surprising that many do-it-yourselfers tend to use ready-made doors from serial machines. But the overall design of the project often suffers from this. With serial doors it is difficult to achieve individuality of the exterior.

    When bending, an electromagnetic plate was used.

    For doors, sheet steel 1.4 mm thick was used, the rest of the body was assembled from panels 1.2 mm thick; except for the front fenders, which went millimeter steel.

    A few words about security. Since the SUV was being built, safety elements were introduced into the design. Behind the windshield, a water pipe is welded around the perimeter, which, together with the front rack of the frame, performs the functions of a safety arc (in the event of a rollover of the car).

    Hinges and door locks are homemade, but you can use ready-made ones - from Zhiguli. Handles and glass lifting mechanism - from "Moskvich-2140".

    Cabin windows are from VAZ-2121 Niva. To install them, a corner made of steel 1.2-2 mm thick was welded around the perimeter of the window under the rubber seal.

    The hood is assembled from steel panels, covered around the perimeter by a frame made of a thin-walled pipe with a diameter of 16 mm. The hood leans forward on homemade horseshoe-shaped hinges.

    Steering transferred from the GAZ-69, but the steering column angle had to be slightly reduced. Brake system used from GAZ-24. The headlights are installed from the Chezeta motorcycle (any similar in size will do, here you can turn on the fantasy).

    The rear lights were used from Moskvich-2140, sidelights and direction indicators are homemade. The instrument panel is from a GAZ-24, but the top panel of our own production is made of foam covered with fabric.

    The gas tank is completely homemade. It is a 80-liter capacity welded from a steel sheet, mounted on a frame between two rear cross beams.

    The frame of the tent is welded from water pipes with a diameter of 25 mm. There are four thinner crossbars under the roof, three of which are removable. Plexiglas is glued into the windows of the awning. The method of attaching plexiglass to the tarpaulin proved to be very effective, so it can be recommended to all auto design enthusiasts. A pocket is sewn to the tarpaulin along the perimeter of the window, glass is inserted into it and the edges are impregnated with dichloroethane (or acetone) as shown in the figure. The tarpaulin is laid on a flat surface (for example, plywood), covered with plastic wrap and loaded - best of all with sand.

    The front seats of the car are from the GAZ-24 with minor modifications. The rear ones are homemade.

    In finished form, a home-made jeep has a rather militant appearance and, as tests have shown, excellent cross-country ability. On tests, the car showed better cross-country ability than the factory "Niva".

    In the pickup version, the maximum load capacity of the machine is 800 kg. Jeep on gasoline A-92 or A-95 has a consumption of about 10 liters per 100 mm of run. Experimentally, the engine was redesigned for 76 gasoline - fuel consumption increased slightly.

    They built this miracle of home-made technology in Dnepropetrovsk. The idea to create a car for outdoor activities was born by Alexander Novoseltsev quite a long time ago. And when an inexpensive UAZ fell into his hands, he served as an excellent donor for manufacturing.

    Since, according to the idea, this car was supposed to be a two-seater off-road coupe, it was necessary to completely abandon the use of the huge body of the UAZ. As a result, only the frame and significantly upgraded suspension, brakes and steering elements remained from the donor car. Much was borrowed from the UAZ - PATRIOT. The rather low-speed native motor was replaced by a more torquey ZMZ-405 (16-valve). The air filter has been installed zero resistance, chiptuning of the control unit was made, the exhaust system was redone. As a result of these alterations, 170 hp were obtained. and 7000 revolutions on the shaft.

    To overcome the fords was put snorkel.

    Technical data UAZ-CRAB:

    engine - ZMZ-405 power - 155 (passport) - 170 (after chip tuning) exhaust - self-made direct-flow drive on both sides - full gasoline- AI-95 consumption - 15-17 l/100km weight - 1600kg max speed - 160 km/h max fording depth - 1.2 m tires - 305/75/16 built in 2006

    Provided that the gearbox and razdatka remained native, with "short" gears (4-speed synchronized) - the acceleration dynamics turned out to be not all-terrain at all ..! Maximum speed 160 km / h, then scary! Gas tank with a volume of 75 liters. shifted to the back for weight distribution, under the trunk, put the spare tire in the same place. The first sketches of the body were applied through tracing paper to the photos of the frame and aregates, we fought for a long time in Photoshop, but more modeled with our hands from cardboard and foam. For example, the hood in the throes of creativity was remade 3 times in metal! The roof and doorways were taken from Honda CR-X. All other body parts and plumage were made independently from sheet iron, puttied and painted. The entire construction process took place in a conventional garage and took 1.5 years. Even in the process of construction, the name CRAB stuck to the car because of the wide-spaced front wheels (305/75/16) of the optics and the bright red color of the body.

    The idea justified the means. Created for outdoor activities, the car successfully takes part in rally raids, off-road competitions, auto exhibitions and just rides. For 3 years of operation, two checkpoints, one razdatka, front axle and broke the frame. The good news is that spare parts are available in the corners and villages. And all this is not comparable with the amount of adrenaline that is released when in contact with this growling gland. The plans are to "breed" CRABs, but already on more serious aregata, for example, from "PAJERO".

    The CRAB was registered as a UAZ-469 with a redesigned body.

    It's no secret that on the territory of our vast country there are areas where it is absolutely impossible to move normally on the roads because of their poor quality. In this case, a special machine comes to the rescue, which is characterized by high cross-country ability. It's about an all-terrain vehicle. But, unfortunately, it is almost impossible to purchase such a vehicle that would be easy, economical and inexpensive. Therefore, many craftsmen with engineering and technical skills decide to create a caterpillar all-terrain vehicle with their own hands, taking into account their needs and capabilities.

    How can tracked all-terrain vehicles be used?

    Such homemade devices caterpillars come in different sizes and are used for a variety of purposes. With their help, heavy loads are moved, which are placed either in a body or in a special trailer. If an all-terrain vehicle is caterpillar, made by oneself, is used for a summer residence, then in this case various building materials are most often transported.

    In addition, such a vehicle has transport versatility, and if any unforeseen circumstances arise, you can quickly, without any difficulties, get to a specific destination over rough terrain.

    What to look for when creating a homemade all-terrain vehicle?

    If you decide to make a caterpillar all-terrain vehicle with your own hands, you must clearly understand for what purpose it will be used. Be sure to consider the following points:

    • weather conditions during operation.
    • Dimensions. The width affects the cross-country ability of a self-made caterpillar all-terrain vehicle, the length is calculated from the number of seats or the presence of a luggage compartment device, and the height should be optimal when creating the amphibious properties of the unit.
    • Motor power. How more powerful engine, the easier it is to overcome hard-to-reach sections of the road.
    • Target. Depending on the purpose for which the mobile device is intended, its design may be modified.
    • Number of wheels. Most often, a self-made caterpillar all-terrain vehicle, made by hand, has wheels from two to eight pairs, which are necessary to maintain the track.

    Creating a drawing

    The most crucial stage is the production of a sketch of a caterpillar all-terrain vehicle. Do-it-yourself drawings with the location of the mechanisms of the unit and its components are drawn after that. They must be very accurate. By creating such vehicle, usually use both home-made parts and finished factory-made elements. They are drawn separately, with the calculation of the compatibility and performance of parts and assemblies.

    Design features

    Tracked all-terrain vehicle, created by oneself, must have an engine. Basically, this element is taken from cars, most often domestic. You can also borrow it from a motorcycle. The undercarriage is represented by rubber tracks, tension system, suspension, rollers. For the manufacture of caterpillars, car tires are often used. The base of the chassis consists of a tub, a frame or any other metal frame. For the control system, various components are taken or ready-made controls for motorcycles or cars, as well as tractors, are used. A self-made caterpillar all-terrain vehicle, made with your own hands, has a power system, which is presented fuel tank, petrol or diesel. Gas equipment is used much less often.

    Manufacturing technology

    Do-it-yourself light tracked all-terrain vehicles are made according to a certain technology. Their creation begins with the construction of the body, which must have high strength and complete water tightness. The basis self-made transport must be rigid, so steel pipes are taken that can withstand any physical stress arising from movement. Then they begin to make caterpillars. To do this, take ordinary sheet rubber and create an annular rubber. Small aluminum blades are placed on its outer side with the help of rivets, and the necessary limiters are installed on the inner side, the step width of which is equal to the width of the rubber of the wheels.

    The next step is that the bridges are removed from the car through the holes that were made specifically for this in the body. Rubber sleeves are used as protection. A rubber band is attached in such a way that the wheels are located directly in the center of the limiters. In addition, additional wheels are also fixed. They are necessary to keep the track in tension. At the end of the work in the cabin of the all-terrain vehicle, made by hand, heavy-duty glass is inserted.

    Conclusion

    Thus, this vehicle is an indispensable means of transport in hard-to-reach areas where there are practically no roads. Possessing engineering and technical qualities, you can easily create caterpillar all-terrain vehicles with your own hands, the drawings of which will help to properly design such a unit.

    Do-it-yourself jeep all-terrain vehicle, homemade all-terrain vehicles - For a car enthusiast - For a master - Let's do it yourself

    Incredibly, you can make a real Jeep all-terrain vehicle out of an ordinary car. Don't believe? Read the article and see for yourself! The frame of the car consists of two longitudinal spars located with some convergence, and three transverse beams.

    Spars have a rather complex section. They are based on two 032 mm water pipes welded together, to which a box of two L-shaped bent steel sheets is also attached by welding from above. The height of the section of the spar ranges from 120 mm in the central part of the frame to 80 mm at the extremities. The square cross beams are welded from 2 mm thick steel sheet, and the front beam also serves as a reserve tank for oil, so it has a drain and filler holes with plugs. In addition to the crossbars, two diaphragms bent from steel sheet give additional rigidity to the frame (front 2 mm thick, rear 1.6 mm).

    The engine was borrowed from the VAZ-2101 car along with the gearbox (however, on N. Yakovlev's car, the latter was taken from the VAZ-2103 - perhaps this is the only significant difference for jeeps). The air and oil filters have been slightly modified.

    The transmission and chassis were used from the GAZ-69 with the use of individual parts from the UAZ-46E. One cardan - between the gearbox and transfer case- homemade. True, the cardan half-coupling and the cross in it are serial, from GAZ-69.

    As the springs of both axles, the rear leaf springs of the GAZ-24 Volga car were used, however, to improve the softness of the ride, home-made earrings were used - 20 mm longer than on the Volga (the size was obtained experimentally). Shock absorbers - also from GAZ-24. The springs are installed parallel to the frame spars, that is, at an angle to the axis of the machine. However, this did not worsen their work at all.

    The body is made of steel sheet with a thickness of 1.0-1.2 mm. Moreover, it all consists of relatively small (no more than 1 m long) panels interconnected by spot welded.

    At first we tried to use fiberglass, but nothing worked for us. Then they opted for metal, - Nikolai Yakovlev recalls. However, this is quite understandable: Nikolai works as a welder, and, of course, this technology is well known to him. This should be borne in mind by every DIYer: it is very important to find “your” material.

    We started to make a body from ... doors! - adds Vladimir Kapusto. Maybe this will come as a surprise to some. However, those who already have some experience in auto-design know that making doors is one of the most difficult operations. It is not surprising that many do-it-yourselfers tend to use ready-made doors from mass-produced machines. Unfortunately, such solutions sometimes run counter to the requirements of the overall design of the structure.

    The most common operation in the construction of a hull is bending. It is not very convenient to carry it out in a vice, so Yakovlev and Kapusto equipped their garage with an electromagnetic stove: this significantly increased labor productivity.

    For doors, sheet steel 1.4 mm thick was used, the rest of the body was assembled from panels 1.2 mm thick; except for the front fenders, which went millimeter steel. The punch was used very limitedly: mainly when fitting the windshield. The panels were joined using spot welding, for which a simple device was made from ordinary pliers, shown in the figure.

    Behind the windshield, a water pipe is welded along the perimeter, which, together with the front rack of the frame, acts as a safety arc when the car rolls over.

    Hinges and door locks are homemade, although it would be advisable to use ready-made ones - say, from a Zhiguli. The handles and the groaning lifting mechanism are from Moskvich-2140.

    The cockpit windows are borrowed from the VAZ-2121 Niva car. To install them, the designers found a simple and effective solution: a corner made of steel 1.2-2 mm thick was welded around the perimeter of the window under the rubber seal. Knocking out the flanging would be much more difficult.

    The bumpers were rolled from a 1.6 mm thick steel sheet, for which two shaped rollers had to be specially machined and an elementary rolling machine had to be built.

    The hood is made of steel panels, covered around the perimeter by a frame made of thin-walled pipe Ø 16 mm. In front of the windshield, a thin foam pad is provided, behind which the wipers are removed. The hood leans forward on homemade horseshoe-shaped hinges. The latter are hinged on a U-shaped frame, which is also a radiator support.

    The tailgate of the car also has a frame made of thin pipes; outside it is covered with a steel sheet 1.2 mm thick, and inside with hardboard.

    The steering was taken from the GAZ-69, however, due to the layout features, the angle of the steering column had to be slightly reduced. Brake system - from GAZ-24. Headlights - motorcycle, from "Chezeta". Initially, all four headlights were located strictly horizontally, the car, as they say, did not look good. Then the inner pair was raised by 10 mm - and everything fell into place. The front of the car has acquired a completely finished look.

    Rear lights from the "Moskvich-2140", sidelights and direction indicators are homemade. The instrument panel is from a GAZ-24, but the top panel of our own production is made of foam covered with fabric.

    The car's gas tank is original. It consists of a 80-litre container welded from steel sheet, mounted on a frame between two rear cross beams.

    The framework of an awning is welded from water pipes 0 25 mm. There are four thinner crossbars under the roof, three of which are removable. Plexiglas is glued into the windows of the awning. The method of attaching plexiglass to the tarpaulin proved to be very effective, so it can be recommended to all auto design enthusiasts. A pocket is sewn to the tarpaulin along the perimeter of the window, glass is inserted into it and the edges are impregnated with dichloroethane (or acetone) as shown in the figure. The tarpaulin is laid on a flat surface (for example, plywood), covered with plastic wrap and loaded - best of all with sand.

    The front seats of the car from the GAZ-24 Volga car are slightly redone. The rear ones are self-made, it is planned to modify them so that when the car is converted into a pickup truck, they turn into the back wall of the cab.

    In conclusion, briefly about the operational data. Perhaps the main advantage of the jeep is its excellent cross-country ability. Last winter, during one of their fishing trips, Nikolai and Vladimir got into a heavy snowfall, whole drifts of snow grew on top of the ice. But homemade cars this obstacle turned out to be unimportant, while the nearby "Niva" was forced to wait for help.

    In the pickup version, the maximum load capacity (when the rear springs become horizontal) of the car is 800 kg. V. Kapusto's car runs on AI-93 gasoline, and its fuel consumption is about 10 liters per 100 mm of run. At N. Yakovlev's jeep, the engine was converted to A-76 gasoline; fuel consumption is somewhat higher.

    Try, dare, and the jeep all-terrain vehicle will be yours!

    Homemade all-terrain vehicles on tracks: schemes for their construction and the main layout - from the Oka, Zhiguli, Volga, a motorcycle and improvised means. Correct drawings and do-it-yourself construction features, so that the car turns out to be maneuverable and passable, and manufacturing takes a minimum of time. In order to assemble a full-fledged floating tracked all-terrain vehicle in your garage, you need not so much - parts old car, corners and pipes for the frame, a welding machine, locksmith tools and enthusiasm.


    If you want to assemble an all-terrain vehicle based on the UAZ, Volga, Gazelle, VAZ, Moskvich and other cars, then it is not recommended to use the body from them, and even from the Oka it is heavy. The body is convenient in terms of comfort, but the car's cross-country ability is deteriorating, fuel consumption is increasing, and it will be very difficult to make it floating. Therefore, it is advisable to cook the body yourself from light sheet metal, and make a safety cage around it so that if you crash into a tree or roll over, you don’t break your neck.

    How to make a rotary mechanism and calculate the patency?

    In fact, all homemade all-terrain vehicles on tracks have the simplest device. stands behind rear axle with a differential from a rear-wheel drive car - usually from a Zhiguli. The drive rollers are driven through this rear axle from the engine through the gearbox. Turns are carried out using separate braking. That is, you need to draw two separate contours on the right and left.

    Scheme of the rotary-brake mechanism in a caterpillar all-terrain vehicle with a wheel

    How to make management - here everyone decides for himself. It is possible to build a semblance of control from two brake cylinders and a handle like on a tractor or a tank. You can come up with pedals, and transfer the clutch and gas to your hands. The vacuum for the brake booster is taken from the engine, or a compressor is hung on a separate pulley.

    The most simple circuit the construction of a caterpillar all-terrain vehicle is to take a Zhiguli, lift it onto the frame, hang additional rollers and tracks on it, and make separate braking. And everything will run.

    Calculations of the specific pressure on snow are quite simple. For a skier, it is 200 grams per cm2. Very good swamps have about 60 grams. That is, you need to take total mass all-terrain vehicle and caterpillar area, from this and dance. .

    The scheme of a floating all-terrain vehicle should imply the presence of an air tank on the frame, or sealed sides. But here you still need to think about stability, for this the engine and heavy units are placed in the center of the all-terrain vehicle.

    Drawings and diagrams

    It makes no sense to build such a machine according to the drawings. Just because everyone has different requests, everyone has their own details and set of source material. Someone has old Zhiguli gathering dust in the garage, and someone will sculpt an all-terrain vehicle from an old Ural motorcycle. Homemade is what it is and homemade, which is designed from scratch and built from improvised means.

    But there are a few important details to consider. First, the frame and frame must be strong.

    Rigidity car body there is even a lot in the forest, its mass is superfluous, but no one canceled collisions with trees and coups.

    Secondly, many homemade all-terrain vehicles on tracks sin with a high center of gravity. The same Zhiguli on tracks are frankly dangerous, since any slope or ditch can cause a rollover.


    Thirdly, if it is planned to go ice fishing on a home-made all-terrain vehicle, then emergency escape routes should be provided for the car. And this is once again about the fact that a body from an Oka or a passenger car can be dangerous for such purposes. You fell into a hole and you can't get out. In the same GTT, the doors open a little upward, there is an exit hatch on top - all this was not done in vain.

    Safety is paramount. In addition, it is worth remembering the fire hazard, do not remove the silencer, be sure to carry a fire extinguisher with you, and so on.

    How to make a homemade all-terrain vehicle on tracks extremely cheaply, safely and efficiently? You just need to have a tool and a place to build, and the cost of parts and metal, given the availability of used Zhiguli or OK, can not even be taken into account.
