Title: Tracked all-terrain vehicle AI-2.
Year Built: 2009.
Man places: 3 places. Driver + 2 passengers, including water crossing.
The mass of the all-terrain vehicle is 900 kg, it floats well. Stock of buoyancy up to 350 kg.
Floating: Due to caterpillars + boat electric motor Minn Kota, which receives power from the onboard network
Fuel Consumption: Approx. 50L 1/100
The maximum theoretical maximum speed is 63 km / h.
Transport speed or cruising - 35 km / h.
The engine from the VAZ-21213.
Gearbox from the VAZ-2101.
Radiators installed 2 pieces. From UAZ and from Lada Priora.
There is no reduction gear.
The rotation is made by braking the drive wheel mounted on the rear axle from the VAZ-21-1. It is called differential.
The rear axle is used from the VAZ-2101. The gear ratio is 1 / 4.3.
Brakes from the VAZ-2101, drum.
Caterpillar with a total length of 621 cm and a width of 35 cm.
The tracks are made of conveyor belt with a thickness of 15 mm and a width of 100 mm.
The tracks are made of channel 60 * 20 * 3 mm, 330 mm long. Fangs are also from this profile.
Instead of track rollers, 4.00-10 air wheels with a camera were used.
Suspension of wheel hubs is individual.
The track is tensioned using the rear sloth. Sloth pendant articulated with a shock absorber.
The suspension of the rollers is balancer in the form of springs from UAZ 500 mm long.
The frame is welded from a profile of 50x25x3 mm.
1.5 mm thick sheet steel sheathing.
Sheathing made of sheet steel with a thickness of 1.5 mm.
Unlike other car makes, interior heating is done from a VAZ stove.
It looks like this all-terrain vehicle from behind.
The instrument panel is also taken from the VAZ.
Engine compartment
Track and balancer support rollers. The spring is very short from the UAZ, so it does not twist. Slight turns are not noticeable. Rollers 4.00 * 10 from a scooter. Tires do not tear, all intact.
Tracks and a tooth of a driving wheel. The tracks are sawn with a grinder from the profile 60 * 40 * 3 mm along. The truck turned out 60 * 18 * 3 mm. The height of 18 mm is approximate, where more, where less. Until not one truck is broken. Fangs from the same profile with a height of h-70 mm. The tapes from the large all-terrain vehicle were 7-cord. 2 cords removed, 5 left and the tape began to bend around the sprocket. Asterisk 8 tooth. Cut with a circular saw. The height of the tooth is 30 mm; it is attached to 2 M10 bolts with 20 mm nuts welded to the disk.
In a cabin a seat for the driver and passenger.
Departure for running in the snow.
The width of the track is good, so it goes through any snow with a clearance under the body. Snow in the bushes is waist-deep, it’s an all-terrain vehicle, approximately up to the glass, and it drowns in it 35-40 cm. The height of the caterpillar is 44 cm, it can be seen everywhere in the video. The carrying capacity is 3 people afloat, plus the cargo, without it anywhere. You can load more, but off-road turns are very difficult, especially on the ground. So why tear the technique. I collected it myself, they didn’t give it to me.
Summer fishing with an inflatable boat.
Outboard electric motor for swimming.
Mounting the balancer (springs from UAZ). The mounting springs homemade spring. The axis is attached to the transverse beam from the profile 50 * 25 * 3 mm and longitudinal 60 * 40 * 3 mm. Axis with a diameter of 30 mm on the bushings.
A drawing of the track tensioner (sloth axis), vomited the nipples on the sloths, but they are now bonded.
Photo tensioner rear.
The tooth of the drive sprocket is made of caprolon.
Spring mounting drawing, sheet width 60 mm, thickness of 2 sheets 15 mm. Springs from UAZ.
Drawing mounting track rollers.
Leading asterisk.
Fastening a tooth to an asterisk.
Track rollers-wheels from a scooter.
Replacing drum brakes with disc brakes. In winter, there are plenty of drums, but on the ground and in the water, the discs are better. In water, generally not controlled on drums.
Winter trip.
