Constantly increasing technical and operational demands are set for modern manned and unmanned special vehicles, all − terrain vehicles, and mobile machines. Their producers must comply with very restrictive standards, strict legal regulations, and high customer requirements. They concern not only functionality and efficiency of described objects, but also resistance to the impact of environmental and climatic exposure. Vehicles and mobile machines must be adapted to work in different climatic conditions such as low and high temperature, variable humidity, wind, dustiness, rainfall, variable atmospheric pressure, solar radiation. Verification of the correctness of operation of all these systems installed in machines, vehicles and engineering units requires experimental research in specified and stable climatic conditions. These special conditions can only be implemented in a thermoclimatic chamber. Thanks to these researches, it is possible to confirm the effectiveness of solutions that allow machines to work in extreme climatic conditions, as well as to detect a number of defects and imperfections of the structure, unpredictable at the design stage. The article describes the research procedure certified by Polish Centre for Accreditation and discusses examples of technoclimatic research carried out recently in the thermoclimatic chamber of Laboratory of Technoclimatic Research and Heavy Duty Machines of Cracow University of Technology.

Low speeds of heavy mobile machines combined with large inertia result in the excitation of low frequency vibrations. Dissipation of vibration energy in the case of unsprung machines is performed only through tires, which slightly reduces the intensity of vibrations. Effective reduction of vibrations of mobile machines is possible only with active or semi-active methods. In unsprung mobile machines, on the way of propagation of vibrations between the source of vibrations and the protected object (machine operator), are vibroisolation systems located. These are most often controlled seat suspensions. In the case of the active suspensions, it is necessary to provide external energy, e.g. in the form of compressed air. The compressed air has the advantage that it is generally available in working machines as the working fluid and has its environmentally friendly properties (leaks do not contaminate the environment). This article is the result of the continuation of work on active methods of vibro-activity lowering in mobile machines, which resulted in, among others, elaboration of simulation model of the active operator’s seat suspension with controlled pneumatic actuator and its experimental identification. In particular, it was verifying the effectiveness of the adopted solution made the identification the friction model and thermodynamic phenomena in the controlled pneumatic cylinder. The aim of this work is parametric optimization of the suspension system and searching for the optimal control strategy. Experimental tests were carried out under conditions of harmonic excitations, coming from the electromechanical vibration exciter with controllable pitch and frequency. Data acquisition system and control circuit of the proportional directional control valve, supplying compressed air to the actuator were implemented using MATLAB-Simulink Real-Time software.

Low-frequency vibrations, generated in mobile machines during their driving, could be reduced only by use of active or semiactive methods. In conditions of low-frequency vibrations, energy dissipation in the machines tires slightly reduces the intensity of the vibration. Unsprung mobile machines are usually equipped with system of vibration isolation, which is located on the way of vibration propagation, between the vibration source and the protected object (the operator of the machine). Generally, controlled seat suspension is used. In the case of the active suspensions, it is necessary to provide external energy, e.g., in the form of compressed air. The compressed air has the advantage that it is generally available in working machines as the working fluid and has its environmentally friendly properties (leaks do not contaminate the environment). This article is the result of the continuation of work on active methods of vibro-activity lowering in mobile machines, which resulted in, among others, elaboration of simulation model of the active operator’s seat suspension with controlled pneumatic actuator. Currently aim of the study was experimental verification of the theoretical results; this verification was performed on the laboratory test bench. In the stand tests, special attention was paid on the assumed models of friction and thermodynamic phenomena in pneumatic actuator, as well as on the control system. Experimental tests were carried out under conditions of harmonic excitations, coming from the electromechanical vibration exciter with controllable pitch and frequency. Data acquisition system and control circuit of the proportional directional control valve, supplying compressed air to the actuator were implemented using Matlab-Simulink Real-Time software. Identification of the simulation model allows for getting the right parameters of the seat suspension. In addition, parametric optimization of the seat suspension system and functional optimization of control strategy would be possible in the next step.

Dążąc do minimalizacji zużycia energii w maszynach roboczych prowadzo¬ne są różnorodne prace, zarówno nad poprawą sprawności poszczególnych ele¬mentów i podukładów jak również nad odzyskiem i ponownym wykorzystaniem energii potencjalnej i kinetycznej zmagazynowanej w poszczególnych mechani¬zmach w trakcie pracy maszyny [1, 2]. Mechanizm obrotu nadwozia koparki, obok mechanizmu jazdy, jest jednym z napędów, w którym występuje cykliczne rozpędzanie i hamowanie bryły o dużej bezwładności. Jest to zatem układ, w którym poszukiwać można odzysku energii kinetycznej w fazie zmniejszania prędkości kątowej nadwozia.

The article presents a simulation model of the piston pneumatic motor, designed to drive light vehicles, weighing several hundred pounds. In the considered engine, system of three cylinders installed in one line, was used, wherein typical actuators, available on the market of pneumatic components were installed. In the developed simulation model, special attention was paid to the description of the processes of air compression and expansion in the cylinders chambers, as well as on appropriate determination of the control valves flow rate. The calculations showed a highly significant effect of the size of the valves on the rate of change of pressure in the actuators. The control system of valves, used in pneumatic engine, introduces two control signals: the degree of filling and the angle of advance. Based on developed simulation model, characteristics of the angular velocity as a function of the control signals for different values of engine torque and power characteristics has been elaborated. The significant effect of discussed control signals, on the engine operation, has been illustrated, in particular values of advance angle, at which maximum power is effected, was determined.

One of the alternative powertrain systems of cars, commercial vehicles and mobile machines are hybrid drives with pneumatic motors for compressed air. This paper presents a mathematical model and the results of simulation calculations of piston pneumatic motor. Mathematical model was based on the fundamental principles of mechanics, thermodynamics and rights of airflow. For simulation model parameterization, prototype of such engine was built and installed on dedicated test stand. Performed experimental research allowed achieving values of coefficients and components characteristics used for model estimation. One of the important tasks of this study was to create the control system of the compressed-air supplied engine. For this purpose an appropriate pneumatic and electronic component were selected and also an algorithm was created which would facilitate changing of the engine settings in order to obtain the best performance. Using elaborated simulation model, series of calculation were performed for different parameters of pneumatic motor, like cylinders diameter and stroke, length of the crank, compressed air pressure and valves size. A lot of attention was devoted to determine the influence of control system settings, such as valves opening and closing in reaction to crankshaft position, on motor properties. When discussing the results of calculations considerable attention was paid to the power, torque and efficiency values. To illustrate performance of designed engine, simplified model of light vehicle was used to calculate possible to achieve acceleration, velocity and travel distance.

Hydrostatic drive systems with linear actuators are commonly used in variety of mobile machines and vehicles. One of important aspect of its operation is cylinder velocity control in variable operating conditions, such as different load, pump pressure and engine rotational velocity. The aim of this article is to create an algorithm, which would control velocity of a hydraulic cylinder used in such systems. One way to create cylinder velocity control system is to perform an identification, which would characterize this system. To do this work it was appropriate to use test stand with excavator equipment. The first part of the article includes the description of the stand and enumerates parts that compose it. Correct work of the control system is possible through use of a proper controller. For achieving a desired purpose, a PID controller was used with some modifications improving system's operation. The controller parameters were tuned based on the model of the system, obtained on the basis of estimation, for different operational conditions. To do this, a tool of MATLAB Simulink called Parameter Estimation was used. The control algorithm, in automatic mode, makes system tuning based on coefficients array. The final stage of the research work was to conduct verification tests, which let to assess a correctness of the created and proposed control system.
