Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of electric tractors and relates to a constant current power supply for electric tractors. Background Art

[0002] Aircraft tugs are classified into two main types based on their towing method: towbar-mounted and towbarless. In the early days, towbar-mounted tugs were the only traditional type used for aircraft dispatching, capable of towing a variety of aircraft. With the development of society, towbarless tugs have emerged and are becoming increasingly mature.

[0003] Tractors are classified by power source into three types: fuel-powered, hybrid-powered, and electric-powered. Electric tractors offer advantages such as high energy conversion efficiency, low noise, zero exhaust emissions, and easy control. Currently, fuel-powered aircraft tractors are the most common type of tractor, but with increasing environmental governance efforts, relevant departments are considering replacing internal combustion tractors with electric tractors. Demand for electric tractors is also growing at airports, railway stations, and postal and telecommunications departments.

[0004] Compared to large, manned aircraft tractors, cordless electric tractors are smaller and more convenient. Manned tractors typically have a cab and require numerous levers to operate, often requiring multiple personnel to operate the tractor. In contrast, the MOTOTOK electric tractor features a compact remote control, allowing for easy aircraft towing operations, saving manpower. This purely electric aircraft tractor utilizes an electric drive for environmental protection. The tractor features a drive wheel and freewheel on each side, achieving a large turning radius through differential steering. The drive wheels are driven by two electric motors. Four high-capacity 12V batteries are installed on each side of the vehicle. These four 12V batteries are connected in series to form a 48V battery pack, which is then connected in parallel to power the tractor.

[0005] The driving power supply of an electric tractor has become an important component of the tractor. Currently, when the tractor body is connected to the adapted driving power supply, the power connector and the power interface are mainly plugged into each other to achieve conduction between the driving power supply and the tractor body. However, the existing constant current power supply of the tractor has the following disadvantages: in the prior art, the filter unit and the transformer unit are usually assembled by welding, so they cannot be quickly removed during maintenance, which is inconvenient. Therefore, we designed a constant current power supply for an electric tractor. Utility Model Content
