"Ural-6464": photos, technical characteristics

In mid-2008, the Russian flagship for the production of large-capacity trucks - the Ural automobile plant - produced a long-range truck tractor Ural-6464. The new car was the first swallow among the domestic saddle towers, which have a motor compartment, taken far ahead. This layout of the engine previously corresponded only to the American style.

Unusual layout

The new "Ural-6464", the photos of which are presented on the page, has an unusual design, its outlines feel power and huge technical potential. The engine's hood arrangement allows the car to be assembled on a base frame of a spacious cab with seating areas, air conditioning, a refrigerator and many useful devices that help drivers overcome ultra-long journeys.

"Ural-6464": technical specifications

The machine is characterized by the parameters that meet the best European standards. Despite the powerful power plant, high load capacity and high speed characteristics, Ural-6464 has relatively modest dimensions.

Weight and overall parameters:

• The length of the road-train is 8050 mm;
• Width of the tractor - 2500 mm;
• Height - 3195 mm;
• The maximum weight of the trailer is 62 tons;
• The total mass of the road train is 72,000 kg;
• The maximum load on the fifth wheel hitch is 23 tons;
• Capacity of gasoline tank - 670 liters.

Power point

The truck tractor Ural-6464 is equipped with a domestic engine of the YaMZ-7511 brand with the following characteristics:

• Dry weight of the engine - 1215 kg;
• The volume of the cylinders is 16.5 liters;
• Number of cylinders - 8;
• The arrangement of the cylinders is V-shaped;
• The motor resource before the first overhaul - 80,000 kilometers of conditional run;
• The maximum fuel consumption for a nominal power take-off is 195 liters per 100 kilometers;
• The maximum twisting moment - 1715 Nanometers;
• Engine power rating - 400 liters. from.

Powerplant model "Ural-6464" is characterized by a perfect system of water forced cooling, thanks to which the heat from the operating unit is removed extremely quickly. This allows you to slow down the process of wear and tear on the whole and significantly increase the time between repairs.

Transmission

The basic model of "Ural-6464" uses only one type of gearbox, it is a 9-stage unit produced by the Yaroslavl Motor Plant, YaMZ-239. The range of speeds is matched to the highest degree rationally, the driver easily finds the desired gear in the road situation of any complexity.

The transmission is equipped with a dual-range demultiplier, providing soft speed switching in the amplitude of the most current parameters. The control is remote, using a lever drive, which transfers the manipulation of the main switch located in the cab to the shaft of the demultiplier.

The gearshift mechanism works with the support of a pneumatic pressure booster, which allows the driver to make hundreds of inter-speed transitions without much stress. Model "Ural-6464" is a good example of a caring attitude to the service personnel working with the latest generation truck tractor .

In addition to standard equipment, the transmission has a special double-action power take-off mechanism. Connection to the sprocket of the shaft gives traction up to 100 liters. With., And the connection with the spur gear in the side of the box - 40 liters. from.

These mechanisms are capable of ensuring the stable rotation of any additional devices. It can be additional systems of ventilation of the car, various generating devices, a mini-power station, charging of accumulators, other non-standard units and units.

Dashboard

The following sensors are located on the shield located in front of the driver:

• Tachometer, accurately reflecting the data on the change in torque;
• Speedometer with a scale of 20 to 160 km / h;
• The oil temperature sensor in the crankcase, outside the pressure system;
• Fuel level in the gas tank;
• Battery charging indicator;
• Oil pressure and its temperature in the main system.

In a separate sector of the instrument panel are:

• Switches for driving and diving;
• Control of the heating system;
• Rheostats of heating of external rear-view mirrors;
• Remote control of air conditioning and ventilation;
• Emergency stop switch;
• Audio control buttons, working in two modes, remote and direct.

Degree of safety

Hood tractors, which include the car "Ural-6464" have good passive safety data. Unlike beskapotnyh models, in which the motor is located directly in the cab and poses a real threat in an accident, cars with a forward engine are more traumatic. At the moment of impact, the entire front part of the hood tractor crumples, but all the units remain outside. In addition, the engine compartment and the cladding take over the main force of the collision. The inertia of the impact is significantly weakened.

Service

The truck driver as any other needs regular maintenance, from the correct maintenance depends on its failure-free operation. Hood tractors have full access to the engine compartment and to all devices located under the hood. Thus, on the road you can do most simple adjustments, top up the lubrication tanks, tighten the connections.

The hood of the car opens forward on the move with a powerful lifting device, working on the basis of pneumatics. Any additional effort on the part of the driver is not required. Three-step ladder on both sides of the tractor allows you to reach the most inaccessible points of the engine compartment and perform the necessary actions.

Level of comfort

In the back of the cab there is a place for rest. This is a bunk bed with soft mattresses and a full set of bed linen. The level of comfort of the car is for long trips, because you can relax at any time.
