TRUCK CHANGES OCCUPATION | MODEL CONSTRUCTION

Garden cart with a wide, roomy basket and grates to build sides for a variety of work in the garden, on the plot. However, every one dealing with the earth, primarily digging, is engaged in planting, sowing. The cart is easily adapted to perform these functions: to collect on its basis the processor, combining a number of tech or other operations. Of course, you will get a non-motorized unit that is designed for your own power.

The only detail that in the process of building the garden cart you will not have to do is wheel: it is better to use Bicycle or motorcycle; depending on the type of wheels is chosen for the sleeve and the axle of the appropriate diameter. The rest of the details will have to produce themselves. But the only thing that can cause you to have difficulty, is cutting more than the normal number of turns of thread at the ends of the core.

Out of thick plywood, waterproof better, the first thing to break the box of the truck. For greater strength of its sides and bottom are held together by metal corners that are placed on the perimeter of the bottom. On the bogie axle box secured with load-bearing wooden beams, corner clamps: displacement along it prevent limiting nuts. Handle and stand bent tube of the same diameter.

When assembling don’t forget to put on the axis of the bars, hold them with the bottom of the box, screwed on the axle until it stops the locking nut and then put on the angle lock.

At work it is often necessary to increase the height of the boards is to increase them. In such cases, use grates made of wooden boards; the vertical posts are inserted in sockets on the walls of the box. Bracket sockets are bent from the narrow metal strips and bolted to the inner walls of the box: four each (Fig. 1).

POTATO

Using additional devices, it is easy to get truck and plant, for example potatoes. For this we need to make a spectacular drum and the hopper (Fig. 2), and remove the bottom part of the box. That’s why the bottom is better to collect three longitudinal stripes; the middle is removed, and in its place put on the axle of the truck drum. It must have pockets — cut sectors in which the tubers will be captured. The size of the pockets and their number depend on the size of tubers and planting interval: they are controlled by plug-in pads (more convenient to have spare drums).

For quick change of reels they made a two groove –transverse and radial. In the first embedded bearing plate with a hole for the screw — axle trucks must have a screw depth, a screw is placed through the radial groove.

Exciting drum fabricated from wood. He may be a welded structure (see figure 2A).

1 — the wall of the hopper 2 is an inclined bottom of the hopper, 3 — Bay guide, 4 — resistant lumber, 5 — reel, 6 — axis sleeve, 7 — axle truck, 8 — receiving window 9 — mounting 10 — transverse drum groove, 11 — retaining bolt 12 — the radial groove of the drum 13 and thrust plate of the drum; And — the welded construction of the drum; B — plow on the truck.

Bring tubers in the pockets of the drum the hopper is slanted with curved bottom. In its lower part is the receiving window, restricting the flow of tubers. And in order that they not rolled out of his pockets and lay down exactly in the sulcus, it is necessary to put the rails of the wall out of plywood with a height slightly larger radius of the drum; at the front they hold a low bar, screwed to the bottom of the box.

The bottom wall of the hopper and rails are fastened with metal parts.

INSTEAD OF THE PLOW

This garden cart can be used in the digging of the earth. Of course, she had no reason to Dalat the plow and do not put the chisels. We are talking about simple angle of the blade promahivayas furrow in already prepared for planting soil. The blade is bent from metal sheet, 2 mm thick and is mounted on the front of Stanko boxes; depth of furrow is governed by the height of rise of the blade. When driving the truck it pushes the soil ataliva her on both sides, so the lower angled part of the blade must not end with the edge (Fig. 2 B).

FROM THE SAME SEEDER

The truck is also suitable for sowing seeds (Fig. 3). It will have to put another drum and another bunker. Pockets for seeds will be different from the previous configuration, and to make them have slightly differently: in the intended pocket location is drilled through lateral hole, then cut part of the strip, inserted the bolt or stud and tightened the nut. Thus, the cut portion — let’s call it the regulatory sector of the pocket can move around the pin, changing the volume of the pocket (Fig. 4): it will depend on the size and the number of seeds which should be sown in the furrow, in each slot. Mounting the drum on an axis — as in the potato.

1 — hopper for seeds, 2 — grate for hopper, 3 — guide tube 4 — regulatory sector pocket, 5 — axis sleeve, 6 — axle truck 7 — reel.

Fig. 4. Pocket seed:

1 — drum, 2 — governing the sector pockets, 3 — pinch bolt with nuts.

The hopper for grain of any improvised container, its bottom is cut the hole and mounted the guiding tube of tin. It should be closer to the surface of the drum so that the gap could not Wake up the seeds. The hopper is fitted on the lattice-based CA staples boxes.

When a small depth of sowing and good soil truck can “close up” seeds. For this purpose under the bottom of the box is fixed to the bolt metal chain (not too much, of course, hard). She volochs on arable land, is to rake up the earth into furrow and cover it.

Now our garden cart will propose the furrow, gently, observing the interval put the seeds in it and cover them with earth.
