Abstract
To enhance the precision and efficiency of the tractor-failure-rate and equipment-quality inspection, the present study introduces a wireless rapid detection method for assessing tractor quality. For this study, which was based on the symmetrical structural characteristics of tractors, we designed a magnetic suction accelerometer. The test system was composed of a wireless router, a magnetic suction accelerometer sensor, a data-acquisition terminal, and other components. This test system aimed to test the equipment quality of the tractor at idle speed before leaving the factory. The experiment found that the vibration characteristics of the tractor had a symmetrical pattern on the left and right sides of the front and rear axle at idle. When the idle speed of the tractor was 800 r/min and 1000 r/min, the predominant vibration direction of both sides of the front axle of the tractor was the Y direction, while the predominant vibration direction of the rear axle was the Z direction. The experimental results showed that the proposed wireless rapid detection method of tractor quality and the designed acceleration sensor had good testing accuracy. The present study could provide a novel rapid detection method for the failure detection of power machinery in the agricultural field and for inspection before leaving the factory. The implementation of the method could improve the detection efficiency, and reduce the detection cost and the incidence of failure during actual use.
