Projeto de um sistema de tração 4x4 para um veículo off-road do tipo baja.

Abstract

The following study deals with the development of a project for the adaptation of an off-road vehicle of the baja type, originally with two-wheel drive system, in a vehicle where there is the possibility, through a coupling mechanism with control accessible to the driver inside the car, of the use of 4- wheel drive. With this the pilot can choose the system that makes the prototype more effective in the transposition of obstacles. Providing more traction with the coupled system in order to transpose low friction terrain such as mud, gravel or loose boulders on slopes or for specific tensile tests. Not impairing performance in tests where agility in maneuvers becomes something essential, being able to perform the same with the uncoupled system.
