The text of the International Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminolo
10、gy and certain conventions are not identical with those used in British Standards; attention is drawn especially to the following. The comma has been used as a decimal marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever the words “I
11、nternational Standard” and “this part of ISO 789” appear, referring to this standard, they should be read as “British Standard” and “this Part of BS 6347” respectively. Cross-references. There are no corresponding British Standards for ISO612:1978 (which is referred to in clause2, 3.2, 3.4.1 and3.5.

15、al Standard specifies test procedures for agricultural tractors. This part deals with the centre of gravity. Other parts of this International Standard will be as follows: Part 1: Power tests; Part 2: Hydraulic power and lifting capacity; Part 3: Turning and clearance diameters; Part 4: Exhaust smok
16、e measurement; Part 5: Partial power p.t.o. non-mechanically transmitted power; Part 7: Power and torque of the drive wheels; Part 8: Engine air cleaner. Although there are many possible methods of determining the centre of gravity, the purpose of this part of ISO789 is to specify a simple, practica
17、l method, which requires the use of a weighbridge and crane. Alternative methods may be used if they locate the centre of gravity with respect to the specified reference planes and within the specified tolerances. 1 Scope and field of application This part of ISO 789 specifies a method of determinin
18、g the position of the centre of gravity of agricultural tractors. The method is applicable to agricultural tractors having at least two axles fitted with wheels or tracks. 2 Reference ISO 612, Road vehicles Dimensions of motor vehicles and towed vehicles Terms and definitions. 3 Definitions For the
19、purpose of this part of ISO789, the following definitions apply. 3.1 agricultural tractor see ISO 3339-1 (in preparation) 3.2 wheelbase see ISO 612 3.3 tractor mass the mass of a tractor as submitted for test 3.4 reference planes 3.4.1 vertical reference planes: a) transverse plane 1) for wheeled tr
20、actors: vertical plane containing the centreline of the rear axle; 2) 2) for crawler tractors: vertical plane containing the centreline of the driving sprocket axle; b) median longitudinal plan (or symmetric longitudinal plane): vertical plane through the major fore-and-aft axis, i.e.midway between
21、the tracks or wheels (see ISO612). 3.4.2 horizontal reference plane ground level. (A hard contact shall be assumed.) 3.5 coordinates of the centre of gravity 3.5.1 horizontal fore-and-aft coordinate (symbol ) the horizontal distance of the centre of gravity from the transverse reference plane 3.5.2
22、vertical coordinate (symbol ) the vertical distance of the centre of gravity from the horizontal reference plane 3.5.3 lateral coordinate (symbol ) the horizontal distance of the centre of gravity from the median longitudinal plane (see ISO612) of the tractor 4 Apparatus The following apparatus is r

25、on agreed between the manufacturer and the testing authority. 5.1 The radiator, sump, hydraulic and other reservoirs shall be filled to specified working levels; the fuel tank shall be full or empty or in a specified condition as agreed between the manufacturer and the testing authority. 5.2 Tools,
26、spare tyre, and loose accessories and equipment shall be complete as supplied and shall be in the normal storage positions. 5.3 Tyre pressures shall be as specified in the manufacturers operating instructions or, if a range of pressures is allowed, at the highest recommended pressure. In the case of
27、 tractors fitted with hydro-inflation tyres, they shall be filled in accordance with the manufacturers operating instructions. 5.4 Articulated tractors shall normally be tested locked in a straight line, but it may be necessary to conduct the test with the joint set at the maximum or any intermediat
28、e angle. 5.5 If testing a sprung tractor, no special measures shall be taken to lock the suspension of the machine. 5.6 In conducting the test, the following measurement tolerances shall be observed: a) distance: 0,5% b) mass: 0,5% c) tyre pressure 3) : 5% 6 Procedure 6.1 General principle The centr
29、e of gravity is determined by the suspension and ground reaction method. This involves measuring the ground reactions with the tractor: a) in a horizontal position; b) tilted with one end lifted; c) tilted with the other end lifted. The calculated horizontal distance of the centre of gravity from a
30、ground contact point is measured in each case and verticals are drawn on the scribing board (4.5) fixed to the tractor. The intersection of the verticals indicates the centre of gravity. 6.2 Determination of horizontal fore-and-aft coordinate 6.2.1 Tracked tractors seeFigure 1a) Determine the mass (
31、m) of the whole tractor on the weighbridge. Measure the reaction (F 1 ) under the knife edge due to its mass and part of the decking. Move the tractor on to the decking, part supported by the weighbridge, and measure the reaction at the front knife edge due to the mass of the tractor, the decking an
32、d knife edge (F 1+ F 2 ). Calculate the reaction of the front knife edge due to the tractor mass only (F 2 ) by subtraction. Measure the distance (d) between the knife edges. The horizontal fore-and-aft coordinate is given by the formula 6.2.2 Wheeled tractors seeFigure 1b) In the case of wheeled tr
33、actors, it is not necessary to use decking or knife edges. With the brakes off, measure the axle loads and calculate from the mass and the wheelbase of the tractor by the formula given in6.2.1 (using the wheelbase as the value ford). 6.3 Determination of vertical coordinate (seeFigure 2) 6.3.1 Suspe
34、nd the tractor from one end at an angle of20 to25 to the horizontal, the other end resting on the weighbridge. For some tractors it may not be practical or safe to use an angle this large. In this case a lesser angle may be used, but shall not be less than15 to the horizontal. (The method is applica
35、ble either to wheeled or tracked tractors, the main difference being in establishing the exact location of the point of application of the ground contact. In the case of wheeled tractors, which shall be unbraked, this is vertically below the axle. In the case of tracked tractors, it is necessary to
36、manoeuvre until the contact grousers are in the line of ground contact BB on either side, or to make contact through a knife-edge on the ground contact line BB. In all cases, the suspension cable shall be vertical as tested by plumb rule.) 6.3.2 Measure the reaction (F 3 ) at the ground contact on t
37、he weighbridge. 6.3.3 Measure the horizontal distance (d) from the ground contact to the line of suspension. 3) Tyre pressure should be in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations. x () x dF 2 m - = x h ()BS6347-6:1983 BSI 03-2000 3 6.3.4 Calculate the horizontal distance (c) from the centr
38、e of gravity to the line of suspension from the formula where m is the mass of the tractor. 6.3.5 Draw a vertical on the scribing board at a distance c from the line of suspension. 6.3.6 Repeat the procedures specified in6.3.1 to6.3.5 with the tractor suspended from the other end. The suspension ang
39、le need not be the same for both ends. 6.3.7 The intersection of the two lines on the scribing board, determined as specified in6.3.5 and6.3.6, gives the vertical coordinate of the centre of gravity . NOTE 1The tractor may be conveniently run on to the weighbridge, square, using chalked lines. This
40、will assist in drawing the plan. If, in the case of tracked tractors, the grousers are not in the ground contact line BB (seeFigure 2), it is necessary to resort to trial and error by running the tractor in varying circles until the required result is attained at the last approach. NOTE 2An alternat
41、ive method is to use a tilting platform and load cells respectively. 6.4 Determination of lateral coordinate in the horizontal plane () (seeFigure 3) Measure the left-hand (F 4 ) and right-hand (F 5 ) wheel or track loadings. Calculate the offset (b) of the centre of gravity using track gauge or whe
42、el track (d t ) as the moment arm, i.e. The lateral coordinate in the horizontal plane is given by the formula NOTEIt will usually be found that the right-hand and left-hand side loads do not exactly total the mass of the tractor due to small differences in level between the weighbride deck and the
43、surround. Any error is minimized by equalizing the overlap of the side being weighed in both cases. It is preferable to use the total right-hand side and left-hand side wheel (track) loadings to determine the mass of the tractor (m). 7 Test report (see theAnnex) 7.1 The test report shall include the
44、 identification of the tractor and test parameters, together with the coordinates of the centre of gravity as follows: a) the horizontal fore-and-aft coordinate (): the distance from the vertical reference plane; b) vertical coordinate (): height above horizontal ground level; c) the lateral coordin
45、ate in the horizontal plane(): the displacement from the median longitudinal plane through the major fore-and-aft axis. 7.2 The position of the centre of gravity shall be reported in millimetres from three reference planes. c F 3 d m - = h y b F 5 d t m - = y d t 2 -b = x h yBS6347-6:1983 4 BSI 03-2
