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.}, DOI = {10.32604/fdmp.2020.09481} }
