“SPACE” IN THE WAY | MODEL CONSTRUCTION

The journal “modelist-Konstruktor” already published materials created by skilled craftsmen in Altai region opposed two-cylinder engines with integrated gearboxes (No. 3, 1987, and No. 8 for the year 1989). Now — the story of the machine for which they are intended, as well as an improved engine, M-40, assembled from parts motorcycle motors IZH-P-4 and Il-W-5 and tractor “poscache” PD-10.

The villagers steppe of the Altai, as the inhabitants of the far North in the winter just need a reliable and fast vehicle. Especially it need Rangers, hunters, and pastoralists. The only relatively affordable transport — a snowmobile “Buran”, but compared to our larger “Space” he was clearly losing.

“Space” surpasses it in speed, efficiency — and this is when the motors are almost equal capacity, and comfort and smoothness. Owners of “storms” often becomes burnouts pistons, breaks the belt variator bounce tracks. Released details scarce as to make them difficult. Snowmobile in case of breakdowns can be fixed yourself, even rotor installation — after items for the PD-10 and “IAM” available for sale. Years of operation showed that samodelnye, oddly enough, safer serial snowmobile.

On the underframe at the rear of the snowmobile is the engine with pusher propeller. Frame, welded from steel tubes of rectangular cross section and area, rests on the transverse beam and is additionally attached to the chassis sled struts. The case is made for “aviation” technology: power frame consists of frames and stringers, which are riveted cladding of duralumin sheets. The light single cab door will retract. “Plenty” carries two people with gear. The passenger is placed behind the cabin. This removed the fairing that covers the space between it and the engine.

Chassis snowmobiles — tricycle with front swivel bar. It is connected with the steering mechanism of the car “Moskvich-412”. Such a device is compact, light weight and free running.

Ski suspension — independent. Front mounted on longitudinal leaf springs, and rear — transverse, partially performs the role of torsion bars operating on the torsion in a frontal impact. In addition, a rear suspension provided with hydraulic shock absorbers. All skis are connected to the uprights by hinges in the form of two pipes of different diameters, inserted into one another. In the gap between them using a grease gun grease stuffed.

Articulation the front of the ski with a spring made for car type: rear end fixed, and the front resting on the rubber pillow has one degree of freedom. Themselves skis are composed of several major dural parts: the average part of a sole; an amplifier made from pipe sprinkler installations; welded toe and heel. The latter is connected with the middle portion of the studs and bolts. For the best sliding sole of the ski is covered with sheet material with a low coefficient of friction (brass, stainless steel or sheet iron of a thickness of 0.8—1 mm). “Padding” is easily changed — just canoodling on the sole, and the edges bent over the boards.

Engine M-40 — one of the options already familiar to the reader of the modular (a module is a cylinder and the crankcase with the crankshaft) design from ready-made components and parts, but easier to manufacture the oppozit with integrated gear. He, like previous models, the cylinders, heads and carbs taken from the “IZH-the Planet”, crankcases, crankshafts and pistons Assembly from the PD-10 and the reducer gear (z=20 and z=53) is from the engine D-240 MTZ-80.

The gear case is missing, and the housings are connected to each other through pads with additional mounting brackets reducer cap. With two sides closed by plates mounted in their bearing housings. In the upper bearings of the rotating shaft propeller-driven gear which is pressed on the shaft with an interference fit of 0.05—0.07 mm (after preheating). And to completely eliminate the mutual rotation of shaft and gear are welded circumferentially discontinuous seam 5-10 mm. In the construction of the “Space” of the axial thrust force of the propeller is perceived angular contact bearing 46208. He and crankshaft bearings are lubricated with oil poured into the crankcase through the pipe to the gear cover. The cover also has openings to control the level of oil and its discharge.

Changed and drive with a standard magneto (M-124Б1). Removed d-pad and modified the shank of the crankshaft. Now the magneto rotor with the crankshaft are connected by a rubber hose with clamps.

The engine and gearbox (rotor conventionally not shown POS.8 cut-In):

1 – gear drive, 2 — Carter, 3 – body cylinders 4 — bushing of the propeller, 5 — gear driven, 6 — rear plate, 7, 11 — additional mounting brackets back plate, 8 — gear cover, 9 — bearing housing (AL 5), 10 — a flange of fastening of the engine to the underframe, 12 — seal, 13—coupling coupling, 14 — nozzle drive shaft magneto (steel 45), 15 the clamp (2 PCs.), 16 — magneto 17 mounting bracket magneto (STZ). 18 — plate front, 19— the pulley of the generator, 20, 24— bearing (STZ), 21 — bearing 180206, 22 — crankshaft, 23. 29-cuff, 25 — bearing 46208, 26 — propeller shaft (40ХГСА), 27 – key 28 — nut M22, 30 corps cuffs (STZ), 31 — propeller, 32 — adapter (steel 45), 33 a bearing 305.

Rear view on the skin mountain frame and engine:

1 — pump, 2 — one of the points of fastening of the engine to the underframe, 3 — drain plug, 4 — betfilter.

The engine can be equipped with a battery ignition system. This requires a battery and a generator, such as G-250, belt driven from a pulley on the shaft of the propeller. And as the breaker — contacts magneto.

The power of such opposed take without forcing about 35-40 HP, and it effectively implements a propeller. The propeller thrust reaches 130-140 kgs. In addition, the two-stroke engine is the clear potential for speeding — if you want the power of the M-40 might bring to 50 HP

The motor is well balanced and with ambulancewoman screw is not experiencing any vibrations. Therefore, the sub frame is made easier and more convenient for inspection and maintenance of the power plant. The mass of the engine with the screw reaches 68-70 kg for snowmobiles is acceptable. However, if body parts are made of aluminum alloy, the engine will be easier still pounds ten.

The larger “Space” in our region popular. But we still continue to improve them. “Space” is still in the way.
