Abstract
Each modern tractor should be adapted to perform an increasing number of various traction, transportation, and other works. Therefore, their designs are becoming more complex. To improve tractor productivity, the power-to-weight ratio and the speed of its units are constantly increasing. This inevitably improves dynamic loading of the chassis and the transmission parts, the level of the generated oscillations, which increases the vibration load of the transmission. One of the promising ways to solve this problem is to introduce elastic links into the tractor transmission closer to an engine or a clutch. Installed closer to the engine, the elastic element in the transmission of the tractor absorbs the impact of the shocks, protecting the tractor engine from large dynamic loads. The material of the chapter contains studies confirming the efficiency of the use of an elastic mechanism (closer to the engine) in the tractor transmission of a small class of traction (14 kN).
