Mini snowmobile "Ayavrik"

The Ayavrik folding motorized snow scooter is used for moving people and moving light loads over shallow snow cover and icy surfaces of water bodies. A motorcycle transformer is produced and goes on sale with gasoline engines of different power - 6.5 and 9 hp. Due to the difference in engine power, snowmobile models have a number of logical differences from each other: firstly, the price, secondly, the traction force, and thirdly, the dimensions of the engine frame, weight, fuel consumption, etc.

The caterpillar module of the motorcycle transformer is equipped with a spacious luggage compartment, made in the form of a box. The front frame is connected to it, with a single-cylinder power unit installed on it. A steering beam is installed on the front frame using special hooks. The block with the seat is inserted on one side into the sides of the rear part, and the other is attached to the steering beam. The ski module with steering mechanism is equipped with a bicycle-type handlebar with controls.

Torque from the internal combustion engine is transmitted to the track via a chain drive. Mounted on the engine, the centrifugal clutch, controlled only by the throttle valve, ensures smooth starting and stopping of the vehicle. The throttle control is located on the steering wheel, like a moped or motorcycle. Due to the absence of a brake, braking is performed using the engine control handle. Just let off the gas and the snowmobile will stop.

Mini snowmobile "Rybinka"

For ease of storage and transportation, the Rybinka mini-snowmobile received a “transformer” type design, which consists of five separate elements that quickly and independently assemble into one on the spot, within 5-10 minutes. Modularity makes it possible to transport a disassembled snowmobile in the luggage compartments of cars with a station wagon body, such as a motorized towing vehicle or a walk-behind tractor, but with one important feature - loading/unloading individual parts greatly simplifies the task, because the heaviest module weighs only 40 kg.

Another positive point is the use of reliable American-made gasoline internal combustion engines, which are provided with a separate warranty. The main advantage of single-cylinder four-stroke power units of the Kohler brand, with a power of 7 hp, is the ability to operate them at ambient temperatures down to -35ºC.

Mini snowmobiles (transformable snowmobiles)

A mini snowmobile or a transformable snowmobile is perhaps the most suitable type of transport for winter fishing, especially in regions where there is a lot of snow. Its advantage also lies in the fact that you do not need to undergo special training to operate it: everything is so simple. In addition, prices for mini snowmobiles are quite low, and the transport is very functional.

Mini snowmobiles are characterized by small dimensions and weight. This is very important because such a device is easy to handle and even one person can load a mini snowmobile into the trunk of a car and pull it out. If it falls under the snow or ice, it can also be easily pulled out by one person

The design of the mini snowmobile consists of several complete modules that are easily assembled and disassembled. Thanks to this, the process of transporting this vehicle is really simplified.

The problem of storing the vehicle also disappears. Thanks to special clamping mechanisms, the product can be disassembled in a few minutes. When disassembled, the mini snowmobile takes up virtually no space and does not require a special room for storage.

Such a product is capable of reaching speeds of up to 30-35 km/h, which is quite enough to move on snow or ice. Low speed allows you to feel confident and safe in any conditions

Some models have additional functions, such as a heated steering wheel or providing 12-volt power to consumers.

Here are some advantages of mini snowmobiles:

  • small dimensions and weight make it easy to transport the snowmobile to any point, regardless of whether it is disassembled or not
  • Thanks to the collapsible body, you can store a mini snowmobile even in an ordinary apartment, on a balcony or in a vestibule
  • assembly of a snowmobile in a few minutes without the use of special tools
  • even with two passengers, the mini snowmobile can move at speeds of up to 20 km/h
  • There is enough space under the seat to transport fishing or any other equipment, and there are also often additional pockets for storing small parts.

A snowmobile is an effective means of transportation in deep snow. However, a powerful and expensive motorized snowmobile, for example, a Yamaha or Polaris, the price of which is comparable to the cost of a car, can be afforded either by those who earn good money, or by those who need it for their occupation, or this is the only possible means of transportation in winter in your region accommodation.

But what if you need a snowmobile to travel short distances, for example, for entertainment, when you want to go out of town, please your family, or to occasionally go fishing? What if you live in the city and do not own a spacious garage? Where to store a large snowmobile (Buran, Taiga, Lynx), how and what to transport it on?

After all, to do this you will have to purchase a special trailer for it, register both the snowmobile and the trailer, and then annually undergo an annual technical inspection of all this property acquired through back-breaking labor. From all these obstacles - price, registration, storage, transportation, inspection, taxes... pleasant thoughts instantly disappear, and the bright dream remains just a dream. And this is very sad!

But don’t rush to be sad, there is a way out! For this category of consumers, the optimal solution would be to buy a mini snowmobile or, even better, a motorcycle transformer, the design of which consists of several parts and is modular, that is, collapsible. A compact snowmobile is a kind of snowmobile, or, if you prefer, a snow scooter, which is stored in a closet and transported in the trunk of a car.

Buying a modular mini snowmobile is, relatively to a “serious” snowmobile, both inexpensive and a solution to all other related problems associated with registration with Gostekhnadzor, transportation and storage. If you needed a snowmobile, you took several modules out of your apartment’s storage room or from a nook in the garage, loaded them yourself into the luggage compartment of any passenger car, and go ahead!

As a rule, assembling and disassembling a motorcycle transformer or a modular mini snowmobile with your own hands takes no more than 15-20 minutes “on the spot”. In this case, you do not need a set of special tools and preparation of the fuel mixture. The engine power is enough to get “to the hole” on the ice of a pond covered with snow, or to enjoy a ride with children when going out of town on a weekend.

The most famous brands of mini snowmobiles in Russia are Pegasus, Dingo, Irbis, Rybinka, Ruff, Itlan Kayur, Burlak, Tourist, Rybokhod, Tesik, SnowMax, Ice Deer, Pelets Pilgrim, Razgulay and some others. Among these brands you can find dismountable motorcycle snowmobiles and motorcycle transformers, as well as snowmobiles and snow scooters, which are quite sufficient for traveling short distances.

Compact snowmobiles also include motorized dogs with a steering module, which consist directly of a motorized towing vehicle, in its classic form, and a ski module. The most famous and popular motorized mini-snowmobiles are Bars, Husky, Mukhtar, Ladoga, Tunguska, Rybak-2M. By purchasing a regular towing vehicle and a ski module for it, you get a small single-seat snowmobile. The choice is yours!


The author of the following all-terrain vehicle has quite a lot of experience in assembling vehicles of various designs. Therefore, in essence, this all-terrain vehicle was built professionally as a means of delivery for winter fishing. This property lies in the fact that you need to come, drill, fish and drive home. It goes without saying that this scheme eliminates breakdowns, since fixing any malfunctions on ice in winter is not the best solution, which is why the author, during construction, primarily adhered to the reliability of the structures. The fishing spot is not so far away, maximum 40 km, so even in the event of a malfunction, the all-terrain vehicle will be able to get to the garage.

At the very beginning of construction, the all-terrain vehicle was conceived as a lightweight pneumatic with an ant engine, but changes were made as construction progressed.

What mechanisms were involved in the construction of the all-terrain vehicle:
1) The frame was assembled independently from a profile square pipe.
2) Internal combustion engine from IZH, which was then replaced by Jupiter 5.
3) Discs were removed from previously made all-terrain vehicles
4) An electric fan for cooling from an unknown model of a Japanese small car.
5) rear differential with axle shafts from Toyota lit-ice,
6) front differential with axle shafts and hubs from Subaru Sambar,
7) The steering wheel and steering rack are from the same Subaru.
8) the door glazing is borrowed from the Honda Street.
9) The electric fan was removed from the Daihatsu Sharada.

What are the disadvantages of the design of this all-terrain vehicle:
1. there is no possibility of reversing.;
2. The engine is located inside the cabin, hence the constant noise.
3. small load capacity;
4. There is simply no suspension at the rear.

Pros:
1) The design is very light
2) Soft and smooth wheels do not dig a hole in the ice, which makes it easy to overcome such obstacles, and allows
ride in any weather.
3) Swims slowly, easily reaches sandy (rocky)
shore, but most likely he won’t go out onto the ice on his own.

As for cross-country ability, it rides in powder until its face hits the snow, then it starts to slip, but it doesn’t sit on its belly, you can roll it back,
or trample ahead (very difficult). There is also very good handling, the turning radius is smaller than that of the Niva, and directional stability for such a short wheelbase is also not bad. The maximum speed of the all-terrain vehicle on a relatively acceptable road is about 60 km/hour.


The essence of the all-terrain vehicle’s operation is quite simple: the chain from the engine goes to the intermediate shaft, and from it to the rear and front differentials. The design feature is such that the front axle can be switched off.

Let's move on to the phased construction of the all-terrain vehicle.
To begin with, the frame of the all-terrain vehicle was assembled, it was built from square pipes, and then the main elements were inserted into it. Therefore, the dimensions were taken based on the actual operation without drawings or diagrams. Then the all-terrain vehicle's suspension and steering were assembled.


When installing the rear part of the all-terrain vehicle, there was an idea to make shock absorption, but for the sake of the prostate, and therefore the reliability of the design, it was decided to abandon it. In addition, this made the all-terrain vehicle much lighter.

Here's a front view of the hub:


This is what the rear mount looks like:


The next step was to install the internal combustion engine, and the steering wheel was adjusted to suit the author's convenience. It’s interesting that the steering shaft had to be made of a composite structure on cardans. Well, only then the author began to weld a common frame for the cabin and body. Moreover, the wheel rims were taken from earlier designs, and they are slightly different in size.

The cameras are taken in sizes 1200/500 508.


In the images below, the main work on installing the frame is being carried out.



The design of the model is quite good. Another important detail, the author specifically decided to limit the carrying capacity of this all-terrain vehicle. Again, this was done in order to strengthen the reliability of the all-terrain vehicle, so as not to overload the structure with excess cargo.
After test runs, it was decided to replace the intermediate shaft sprocket from Izh with a larger sprocket.


By the way, here are photographs of the area in which the all-terrain vehicle will be operated.

It hasn't snowed that much yet:


In autumn it looks like this:


As originally intended, the equipment turned out to be quite light, one person is enough to lift the front and back in turn, and at the same time rearrange it from the track to the side.

This was achieved thanks to the incredibly low weight of the structure of 300 kg.

But unfortunately there were also disadvantages, for example, in deep snow the engine felt weak, so it was decided to sacrifice weight for the sake of the more powerful engine from Jupiter 5.

The wheel assembly was weighed:



Disc on scales:


The rims on the front wheels are different in diameter, outer and inner, I experimented during construction. The rear wheels are the same. There is no big difference.

For cooling, an electric fan was added from the radiator of a small Japanese car.

And the warm air from the engine was sent to heat the windows. Independent brakes were also installed on the left and right front wheels, this was necessary to overcome diagonal hanging.

After such upgrades, the front of the car became noticeably heavier, but the dynamics and speed provided the necessary qualities, thanks to the new engine.
Since the wheels were taken from previous models of all-terrain vehicles, it was decided to slightly modernize the wheels:


Chain tensioners were also installed on long levers connected
springs:


Once the increased mass had an effect, when the caracat turned over on its back, it was no longer possible to lift it alone, but the two of us easily managed it.
