WHEEL LOADER

"WHEEL LOADER"-

Objective:

• To design the model of Wheel Loader using solidworks.
• To assemble the diffrent parts modeled for the wheel loader.

To create the photo realistic model of wheel loader by using Photoview360 or Solidworks Visulize.

Part modeling :

Part modeling can create a part from a conceptual sketch through solid feature-modeling as well as create and modify the parts to create virtual prototypes.

Parts modeled for the Wheel Loader :

• Rear body
• Front body
• Screw
• Diffrential
• Boom
• Boom cylinder
• Boom road
• Rocker Arm cylinder
• Rocker arm
• Rocker arm rod
• Connecting rod
• Bucket

1.Rear body :

Rear body is main body of the wheel Loader.which gives support to the vehicle and it holds all parts of the vehicle. It contains several parts such as Engine,Exhust,Airfilter,Sreering wheel,Mirrors,Driving seat,Rear wheels and etc.

Features used to create the rear body:

• Boss extrude
• Cut extrude
• Chamfer
• Linear pattern
• Fillet
• Draft
• Sweep
• Mirror
• Revolve
• Dome

2.Front body :

It is located at front of the vehicle.Front body and Rear body connects with the help of Screw eachother and it is mounted on front wheels of the vehicle.It holds the diffrential and linkage mehanism.

Features used to create the front body :

• Boss extrude
• Cut extrude
• Fillet
• Draft
• Rvolve
• Dome
• Split line
• Combine

3.Screw :

Screws are to hold links together and to position links in proper way.

Features used to create screw :

• Revolve
• Cut extrude
• Fillet

4.Diffrential :

Diffrential is a driver mechanism which transfers the torque to the wheels through the axil. Two diffrentials are used in the modeling of the wheel loader. One is placed at the rear wheel axil and another one is placed at front wheels .

Features used to create Diffrential :

• Boss extrude
• Fillet
• Cut extrude
• Split
• Mirror
• Dome

5.Axil rod :

It transmits the power to the wheels through the diffrential. It connects the wheels of the vehicle.

Fetures used to create the Axil rod :

• Boss extrude

6.Boom :

Boom is the long part of wheel loader .it is connected to the vehicle's Front body and the Bucket with the help of screw.It holds the bucket.

Features used to create Boom :

• Boss extrude
• Cut extrude
• fillet

7.Boom Cylinder :

It is used to operate the movement of boom link up and down withe help of hydtaulics.one end of the cylinder is attached at bottom of the front body and another end Boom rod is fixed to the cylinder.

Features used to create the cylinder :

• Boss extrude
• Revolve cut
• Cut extrude
• Fillet

8.Boom rod :

It is the part which connects the Boom cylinder to the Boom link.

Features used to create Boom rod :

• Boss extrude
• Cut extrude
• Fillet

9.Rocker arm :

Rocker arm is a main and center link . Boom link, Connecting rod & Rocker cylinder system connected to the Rocker arm.

Features used to create the Rocker arm :

• Boss extrude
• Cut extrude

10.Rocker cyllender :

It is bigger than Boom cylinder . one end of rocker cylinder attached to the front body of vehicle and second end fixed to the rocker rod. It controls the movement of the Bucket.

Features used to create the Rocker cylinder :

• Boss extrude
• Revolve cut
• Cut extrude
• Fillet

11.Rocker rod :

It is the part which connects the Rocker cylinder and thr Rocker arm.

Features used to create the rod :

• Boss extrude
• Revolve
• Dome

12.Connecting rod :

It is the link which connects the Rocker arm and the Bucket.

Features used to create the connecting rod :

• Boss extrude
• Cut extrude

13.Wheel :

Wheels include the Tyre and Rim. wheels are attached to the axil rod.

Features used to create rim and tyre :

• Revolve
• Boss extrude
• Split line
• Offset surface
• Boundary boss/base
• Circular pattern
• Body move

14. Bucket :

Bucket is the final part of the Wheel loader and is the part scoops the earth.it is attached to the connecting rod and whih the Boom.

Fetures used to the create the Bucket :

• Boss extrude
• Fillet
• Cut extrude
• Chamfer
• Shell
• Combine
• Mirror

Assembly of Wheel loader :

Initially the Rear body part is inserted in the assembly using Insert components option. After all other parts of the Wheel loader are inserted and apply proper mate conditions with the Rear body.

Exploded view of assembly :

Rendering :

• Rendering is the process of creating realistic images of the model we created with the enviromment setup.By using Photoview360 or Solidworks visulize render the Photorealistic models to realistic images.
• photo realistic Wheel loader model is rendered into realistic images in diffrent views.

Conclusion :

All parts of Wheel loader is modeled and assembled together successfully and rendered into realistic images of the model created by using rendering tools.
