Analysis of the operation of a device for installing outriggers of self-propelled chassis of mobile transport and reloading rope complexes

Single-span mobile ropeways of the pendulum type, formed with the help of two mobile transport and reloading rope complexes connected by a single rope system on the basis of self-propelled wheeled chassis of high cross-country ability and carrying capacity, are currently considered as a promising type of transporting equipment for solving many tasks in adverse natural and social situations. The article is devoted to an important technical task of ensuring the safe operation of rope complexes associated with the loss of overall stability and overturning of the wheeled chassis under conditions of significant operational loads from the tension of the rope system, creating an overturning moment. The original design of the device for the installation of outriggers is presented in detail, providing automated execution of the necessary technological work. The developed method of designing this device is based on the analysis of the kinematics of the movable structural elements of the device, which allowed us to establish the calculated dependencies for determining the main structural dimensions. The considered design and design methodology can be used in the creation of transport and technological machines of other functional purposes, during the operation of which situations of loss of overall stability and overturning are possible.
