Design methodology of a cultsvator’s arrow leg with local reinforcement elements

Abstract

In modern agriculture, increasing the efficiency of soil treatment and the durability of working bodies of agricultural machinery are priority tasks. The purpose of this article is to develop a methodology for designing a cultivator arrow foot with local strengthening elements, which takes into account the mechanical and operational features of the design, and also ensures the optimal location of strengthening elements to achieve maximum efficiency in field conditions. The study confirms that the introduction of local reinforcement elements in the design of the arrow-shaped paw cultivator increases its wear resistance and durability. This ensures more stable work during soil cultivation, reducing wear and tear on the key elements of the cultivator.
