More Information About 3D Model :
The Long Wide Double Track Tread Metal Cage Wheel Tractor Tyre Tire (often formally referred to as a Skeletal Traction Wheel, Open-Frame Impeller, or Paddy Wheel) is a specialized, non-pneumatic traction apparatus designed for agricultural tractors operating in extremely soft, low-cohesion environments, particularly saturated fields, wetlands, or rice paddies. This complex designation describes a ground-engaging component engineered to maximize flotation and traction efficiency while minimizing detrimental soil compaction and slippage.
Design and Nomenclature
The structure is fundamentally a heavy-duty, fabricated steel assembly, replacing or supplementing conventional rubber tires.
1. Material and Construction (Metal Cage Wheel):
The primary structure consists of a rigid, open skeletal framework—the metal cage—typically constructed from welded high-tensile steel alloys. This cage connects the hub assembly to the exterior ground-engaging elements. The open design is critical for operational efficiency, allowing rapid shedding of mud, water, and debris, preventing hydrostatic resistance and maintaining a consistent interface with the soil.
2. Ground Engagement Surface (Double Track Tread):
The distinguishing feature is the double track tread configuration. This refers to two distinct, parallel, annular steel rims (tracks) separated by the width of the metal cage structure. These parallel tracks function to distribute the load across a significantly greater area than a single-track wheel of comparable diameter, simultaneously enhancing lateral stability.
3. Treading Elements (Tread):
The exterior surfaces of the double tracks are fitted with integrated traction aids, referred to as the tread. These typically consist of aggressive, radial elements such as paddles, grousers, or cleats. These components are specifically engineered to penetrate the saturated soil layer, providing the necessary shear strength and propulsion (impelling force) required for movement in viscous substrates where frictional traction is limited. The length and width of the overall assembly maximize the effective ground contact footprint.
Operational Characteristics
Flotation and Ground Pressure:
The Long Wide dimensions are central to the wheel’s performance. By substantially increasing the area of contact, the design significantly reduces the ground contact pressure (measured in PSI or kPa). This high-flotation capability is essential for minimizing deep rutting and preventing the tractor from sinking in saturated soil (a key concern in rice paddy farming, known as puddled conditions).
Traction Performance:
The aggressive grousers and open cage structure ensure continuous, positive engagement. Unlike pneumatic tires that rely primarily on friction and tread deformation, the skeletal wheel utilizes mechanical resistance and impelling action. The design prevents the buildup of hydrostatic pressure beneath the wheel, which would otherwise lead to hydroplaning or complete loss of traction.
Application Context:
Skeletal cage wheels are primarily utilized in specialized agricultural environments, often mounted on two-wheel-drive (2WD) or four-wheel-drive (4WD) utility tractors used for tasks such as field preparation (puddling) and cultivation in flooded fields. They are frequently mounted as external duals adjacent to standard rubber tires, or occasionally replace the main drive tires entirely, depending on the specific application requirements and severity of the terrain.
