Torque Converter Assembly


Type:
3-element
1 stage
1 phase
Assembly: Pump,
Turbine and Stator
There are many
vanes on these
components for
using oil to transfer
power

BMC

www.Broad-Machinery.com

These 3 components
combined with oil, give us
as smooth power
transmission.
Safety valve: fitted to oil
input, ensures the input
oil pressure is no more
than 0.87MPa.
Relief Valve: fitted on oil
output, ensures the oil
pressure inside the torque
converter is maintained
below 0.45MPa.

Principles of Torque Converter

BMC

Oil Flow: Pump Turbine


Stator pump
There is 2 mm clearance
between pump and
Turbine, and transfers
power by Oil. There is no
mechanical impact, they
protect each other
Assist hydraulic system: to
resist loss of oil; to
maintain the normal oil
temperature.

Operation of Torque Converter


When the load increases,
the dozer ground speed
is reduced, causing
turbine speed to slow
down. But at this time the
energy from the pump
transfer to torque
converter is not reduced.
This energy is still
transferring to the stator
through the slowing
turbine. Then the energy
to stator from turbine,
results in the turbine
gaining torque, then the
turbine output torque is
increasing.

High Torque Converter Oil Temperature

Normally, SD22 Torque Converter Temperature of


output oil is 115-120oC. For a short time, a higher
temperature of 130-135oC is allowed, but long term
high temperature shows there is something wrong,
for the following reasons:
1.Shortage of Oil
Torque converter, transmission, main drive, steering
and final drive will take 30% of engine rated power.
This power will transfer to heat energy, and increase
the oil temperature. Therefore it requires enough oil
to absorb this heat.
If the oil quantity is not sufficient, the oil temperature
will be too high.
www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
2.Oil Pressure of input and output are incorrect
If torque converter input oil pressure is not correct
(Standard: 0.87MPa) or the oil is dirty, the piston of
valve will stay at relief position, so the oil pressure to
the torque converter is low. This leads to a loss of
efficiency and excessive oil temperature.
If torque converter output oil pressure is not correct
(Standard: 0.45MPa) or the oil supply is blocked,
return oil temperature will be too high. The flow of oil
to oil cooler is reduced, and the oil temperature too
high
www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
3. Incorrect Operation
Excessive use of low engine speed for extended
time, torque converter will work at low efficiency.
Torque converter will lose power, and transfer heat
energy leading to high oil temperature.

Planetary Gear System

BMC
C

The system consists of:


A: Sun Gear
B: Planetary Gears
C: Ring Gear
D: Carrier

The planetary gears are


installed on the carrier being
in constant mesh with the
sun gear and the ring gear

www.Broad-Machinery.com

Planetary Gear system

BMC

www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC

Principle of Planetary Gear system


If the carrier is fixed, the
torque is transmitted from
sun gear to planetary
gear, and is transmitted
from planetary gear to
ring gear to make the ring
gear rotate. Rotation
direction of ring gear is
opposite from sun gear.
A: Sun Gear
B: Planetary Gear
C: Ring Gear
D: Carrier

www.Broad-Machinery.com

Principle of Planetary Gear system

BMC

If the ring gear is fixed, the


torque is transmitted from
sun gear to planetary gear.
The planetary gear rotates
by itself, at the same time
rotates around sun gear.
Rotation direction of the
planetary gear shaft is
opposite from sun gear.
It is a slowdown outfit that
power input from sun gear,
output from carrier

A: Sun Gear
B: Planetary Gear
C: Ring Gear
D: Carrier

BMC

The above principles are structure principle of No.1,3,4


planetary gear system.
The sun gear is active in No.1 Planetary Gear system
The carrier is active in No.3 & 4 Planetary Gear system
www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
This is structure
and principle of
No.2 planetary
gear system.
The rotate
direction is
contrary with No.1
planetary gear
system.

clutches, and 1 locking clutch (no planetary gear
system) and housing, input shaft, end gear and
output bevel gear.

quantity and piston is
different.

www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
Method of fixing of each planetary
gear is as this figure, it is actuated
by the clutch.
Engagement of clutch is actuated
by oil pressure from control valve
pushing piston 3.

www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
Disengagement of clutch is
actuated by return spring 33
which pushes piston 3 to
original position after oil
pressure is cut off.
The function of disc spring 42 is
to improve operating speed of
piston 3 and improve release
the discs.

www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
This figure is a drawing of No.5
locking clutch. When the clutch
disengages, oil in the cylinder
body 16 by the action of
centrifugal force. Disks cant
disengage quickly, only by disk
spring 29. This can make the
clutch half disengage. This will
cause difficulty for next gearshift.
In order to eliminate this problem,
the ball check valve 17 is
incorporated in the piston after
the rotary clutch.

www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
No.5 Clutch is a lock
clutch.
When this clutch engages,
pressure oil from
controlling valve enters
into oil cavity and pushes
piston 26, at the same
time, the oil pushes check
valve ball 17 to plug the
hole of valve. The clutch is
engaged quickly.

www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC
No.5 Clutch is a lock
clutch.
When the pressure oil from
controlling valve is cut off,
by the action of centrifugal
force, ball 17 can move to
the direction of arrow in this
figure. At this time, the hole
of valve cage is opened
and the oil is drained off.

Function:
1. Maintain track
tension
2 absorb the
vibration of idler
Note:
the fixed pressure
is 20.38 tons, it
requires special
fitting tools

www.Broad-Machinery.com

Measurement of Track Tension

BMC

use a ruler placed on


the track grousers
between carrier roller
and idler, the measure
distance is C C=2030mm
SD32 track has more
wide, the distance is
bigger between carrier
roller and idler, the
measured distance is
C=30-40mm

Idler

Carrier roller

www.Broad-Machinery.com

Idler
Function:
Gives guidance for
track chain and
maintains track tension
Lubrication
There are lub oil in the
cage that is sealed by
floating seal, between
idler and support
housing. The oil
capacity is 70%.

BMC

www.Broad-Machinery.com

To Adjust Idler Clearance

BMC

If the clearance is over limit ,


the idler will swing, and track
links off centre and will wear
the sprocket.
If Clearance in one side
A 4mm,
it must be adjusted into
A=0.5-1mm
If Clearance of up and down
(B+C)5mm
it must be adjusted into
(B+C)=2mm

www.Broad-Machinery.com

Track Roller

BMC

First it carries dozer


weight, secondly it
prevent track chain
moving off centre of
track frame
Bushing and float seal
is similar to idler

www.Broad-Machinery.com

Track Shoe
Assembly

BMC

Supports all of the


dozer weight, and
determines the
ground pressure
Four high strength
bolts fix track shoe
onto track link,
bolt torque:
SD16:70kg.m
SD22:76kg.m
SD32:100kg.m
www.Broad-Machinery.com

BMC

Use and Maintenance of Track Shoe

Track supports 30 tons bulldozer weight, and if the working


conditions are bad, it will wear more quickly, so use and
maintain it correctly.
1. Often check the tension of track shoe. use a ruler put the track
grousers between carrier roller and idler, the measure is
C C=20-30mm; SD32 track is more weight, the distance is
more large between carrier roller and idler, the measure is
C=30-40mm
When the work is hard, the track shoe assy will need to be
adjust tighter; if the work is moderate , the track shoe assy
tension can be adjusted back.

BMC

Use and Maintenance of Track Shoe

2. The sprocket segments need be replaced when the sprocket


segments wear under the limit.
3. Dont drive dozer hard and avoid track damage and excessive wear.
4. If there is excessive track play and noise, you must stop and check
tracks and machine.
5. When the dozer across the railway line, you must drive it across the
railway at right angle, and dont change speed, dont stop and
reverse, avoid track shoes locking in railway line.
7. After working, you must check tracks, and if there is something
wrong. If there is something wrong, must repair or replace.
