The development of agricultural production inevitably
entails an increasing volume of traffic and a turnover of
goods. Therefore, the issues of increasing transport
efficiency, reducing the price of transportations and
improving productivity acquire great importance.
In most cases, supersize dump trucks used for the
transport of agricultural production have much more than 6 tons axle load. Thus, these cars need to have
roads with improved surface to each field, which
undoubtedly is a significant drawback. Because of the
extra movements of harvester dump trucks on the
turning strip at the end of the field, it increases expenses
of damage and loss of crops and the arrival of heavy
machinery in the field leading to soil compaction, that
in the end affects the future crop. Transportation of
agricultural commodities is most effective when the car
arrives directly to the harvester machinery. Such
vehicles must have sufficient abilities and capacity of
the body comparable with the volume of a combine
hopper and has no significant impact on soil sealing.
With this method, harvesters do not make extra
movements and are not idle. Basic requirements for
vehicles used in the harvesting potatoes, are in a more
productive use due to increasing the capacity and
reducing downtime when loading or unloading and
minimizing the level of damage to other tubers. For the
transportation of agricultural products there is a
different transport technology, which either do not fully
meets the requirements of transportation of highly
fragile product, or has a significant cost. Therefore, we
require a specially equipped vehicle bodies, with a
competitive ability in the range acceptable to the
Russian Federation. As one of the innovative
developments, this article proposes a tipper body of the
vehicle for transportation of highly fragile agricultural
products. The proposed design solution for the tipper
ensures a uniform unloading of transported products
from the vehicle body and prevents arching issues
