Figure 1 is a diagram of component parts of an implement PTO to better understand PTO hazards, guarding, and injuries. The upper drawing is of a PTO system involving a pedestal connection as found on many types of pulled machinery e.
The bottom drawing is of a PTO system where the implement's input driveline connects directly to the tractor PTO stub.
Examples of this type of connection include three-point hitch mounted equipment e. The flexible universal joint or "U joint" makes the connection from the tractor to the implement. U Joints are connected by a square rigid shaft which turns inside another shaft. The tractor's stub shaft, often called the PTO, transfers power from the tractor to the PTO-driven machine or implement.
Power transfer is accomplished by connecting a drive shaft from the machinery to the tractor's PTO stub shaft. At all speeds, they rotate in proportion to the speed of the tractor engine. Note: rpm speed PTO shafts have more splines on the shaft.
The reasons a PTO stub may be left engaged include: the operator forgetting or not being aware of the PTO clutch is engaged; seeing the PTO stub spinning but not considering it dangerous enough to disengage; or, the operator is involved in a work activity requiring PTO operation. Boot laces, pant legs, overalls and coveralls, and sweatshirts are clothing items that can become caught and wrapped around a spinning PTO stub shaft.
In addition to clothing, additional items that can become caught in the PTO include jewelry and long hair. The PTO driveline is identified as a mechanical wrap point hazard and is one of the oldest and most common farm machinery hazards, referring specifically to the part of the implement machine drive shaft that connects to the tractor.
This drive shaft is known as the implement input driveline IID. If the IID shaft is partially guarded, the shielding is usually over the straight part of the shaft, leaving the universal joints, the PTO connection front connector , and the Implement Input Connections IIC, the rear connector as the wrap point hazards.
Protruding pins and bolts used as connection locking devices are particularly adept at snagging clothing. If clothing does not tear or rip away, as it sometimes does for the fortunate, a person's limb or body may begin to wrap with the clothing.
Even when wrapping does not occur, the affected part may become compressed so tightly by the clothing and shaft that the person is trapped against the shaft.
At these speeds, clothing is pulled around the IID shaft much quicker than a person can pull back or take evasive action. Many IID shaft entanglements happen while the shaft is turning at one-half or one-quarter of the recommended operating speed. Even with a relatively quick reaction time of five-tenths of a second, the wrapping action has begun.
Once wrapping begins, the person instinctively tries to pull away. Modern PTOs have standardized structures for safety and universal compatibility purposes. The PTO of a typical utility tractor has a telescoping driveshaft, yoke at the tractor, and yoke at the implement. You may not see some of the PTO parts if a power take-off shield is fitted on it for safety. It really makes sense to wonder whether you will find PTO on every tractor you come across. Here comes the answer to the question.
Almost all modern tractors have PTO. Compacts tractors even have PTOs despite their small sizes. While some can continue operating for up to 10 hours daily, others can operate for only about 10 minutes a week. This type of PTO derives its name from the point where it connects. This type of PTO can transfer power to attached equipment only when the gear is engaged. Overrunning clutches will disconnect the PTO shaft from the driven shaft whenever the driven shaft rotates faster than the PTO shaft and hence protect the transmission from damage.
Live PTO can transfer power to implements even when the gear is not engaged. It has its own separate clutch, which makes it possible to engage the PTO without engaging the gear. This type of PTO does not depend on any other function on the tractor. An operator can engage or disengage the PTO while the tractor is moving and also when it is stationary.
There are two types of independent PTO. Both types feature an electrical switch for engaging and disengaging the PTO. Most tractors have a Power Take Off shaft, which is what connects to your implements to power them. Because the shaft draws power from the engine, the PTO horsepower indicates how much power is available to run various implements. High PTO is also critical when you start talking about terrain. It is usually written at the bottom of a page to request the reader to turn the page.
It is used to show that additional information is given on the other side or next page. For example; you are writing a paper of science. To start the pto , move the lever sharply forward into the fully engaged position".
Power to the PTO shaft comes from the gearbox. The following types of PTO are available in India. PTO speed is stated as a percentage of engine speed. The percentage of PTO to engine speed would be calculated to approximately two-thirds, or approximately 67 percent e. A " live " Power Take Off PTO is one that can operate independently from all other tractor functions, as long as the engine is running. The essential difference between the two is that PTO covers any paid time away from work where the employee is not working; in contrast, vacation time refers to paid time off that's taken for the employee to take a break with or without their family.
All three types rotate counterclockwise when viewed from the tractor When standing behind the tractor , the shaft turns clockwise. The speed was later changed to rpm. Power Take-Offs, or PTOs, are mechanical gearboxes that attach to mounting faces provided on truck transmissions. In a year, PTO is commonly seen in other brands of tractors too.
PTO invented to generate engine power that transfers to implements and converts it into engine rotation to hydraulic. With the use of fluids in energy, that mechanism is called hydraulic. It comes with a benefit that can quickly move large implements with less power.
In short, we can say that tractor PTO works superbly in tractors. PTO shaft used to supply mechanical energy between agricultural tractors and implements. That energy which changes the energy of the engine to hydraulic pressure is called PTO shaft. PTO shaft is too heavy, use properly. This type of PTO directly connects to the transmission. It engage pto on tractor, and when you press the clutch, you can not drive the PTO.
