Abstract
In this study, assuming a certain type of wheel loader as the main objective of the research, the performances of the working device of the loader are
investigated on the basis of an in-house code. After creating a three-dimensional
model of the working device using Solidworks, this model has been imported into
the dynamic simulation software ADAMS, and the simulation problem has been
completed by adding the relevant constraints and loadings. The load stress curve
relating to the main connecting point of the working device has been obtained in
the frame work of this approach and it has been shown that the movement characteristics are compatible with (i.e., they match) the actual working conditions.
The present study may be regarded as a theoretical basis for the design and
improvement of the working device of a vast category of wheel loaders.
