Slippage of wheeled and tracked vehicles negatively affects the operation of transmission elements, increased tread wear. Existing methods and means of combating slippage are widely known at the present time: the use of twin and widened wheels, the installation of spikes, putting on chains, lugs, etc. The traction control device proposed by us is activated only at the time of slipping. In normal mode, it is easily placed on the wheel disk, repeating with the lower end the envelope surface of the wheel tread. The weight of the device is 2 kg. Calculations have shown that to ensure the movement of the wheel on loose soil without slipping, the proposed device is placed in an amount of 2 to 6 pcs. in diametrically opposite ends of the wheel, protruding beyond the surface of the tire. Their number can be regulated by pneumatic actuator.
