Section I hydraulic devices in motor vehicles

One of the home-made automobiles (Moskvich-412) was once renewed. We consider innovation concerning only two units operating on hydraulic principle – the clutch and power transmission. In difference to the preceding models the mentioned one has the clutch drive of the hydraulic type. The new design of the hydraulic drive eliminates three lubrication points which were indispensable in the mechanical drive. Power transmission has been also modified. The mechanical clutch release drive has been replaced by a hydraulic one.

In Zhiguli the clutch is of the dry single-plate type, with diaphragm pressure spring. The hydraulic clutch release has a servo spring on pedal. The front suspension is independent, on lateral rocking arms with coil springs, telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers and sway eliminator. The rear suspension has coil springs, telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers, four longitudinal and one transverse rods. Foot brakes are of the disk-type with two opposed hydraulic cylinders on each front wheel and hydraulic cylinder on each rear wheel. Front and rear brakes are controlled separately by the hydraulic system from foot pedal and brake master cylinder with two coaxial pistons.

Some passenger cars have a soft convertible top. Folding and raising the roof cloth are performed by a hydraulic gear actuated from the driver’s seat.

New components are to be found on the GAZ truck. The GAZ truck carries great payloads, its braking system is very important. Each wheel brake cylinder is fitted with a heat screen to avoid brake fluid overheating caused by prolonged use of the brakes. The simplified hydraulic booster is integrated with the brake control valve. This arrangement reduces the number of parts and minimizes booster weight. The hydraulic booster control valve on the new model does not require adjustment in operation since it utilizes a diaphragm instead of the balancer plate and rubberized end valves instead of steel ball valves. The comfortable adjustable seat, the compact instrument panel, easy steering and hydraulic brakes make driving this truck almost as easy as a medium class car.

In the BELAZ tip-up lorry (dump truck), its body with heavy cargo is easily tipped from the driver’s cabin by means of a hydraulic mechanism. It is designed to operate in company with an excavator.

As for foreign-made cars, it is necessary, to mention a Danish Car Corporation, which produced a unique engine. The crankshaft has been substituted by a hydraulic transmission. The new engine is much smaller in dimensions than the conventional diesel engines, but develops more capacity. It can substitute four conventional diesel engines. The hydraulic transmission is supposed to work on mineral oil.
