Two Industrial Tractors in the Company of a Range of Chassis with Different Pay-load Capacities

Stand 54

-1,N addition to five examples of • its ldifferent types of chassis, this concern has given prominence on its stand to two industrial tractors, one of these being the Model 20 10-tonner, with an all-enclosed cab, and the other a new 4 5-tonner styled Model 112.

So far as the chassis are concerned, the models on view are the Cl, C20, C30 and C40. The first-named has a wheelbase of 10 ft. 5 ins., and is shown equipped with a drop-sided lorry body; the carrying capacity is 15 cwt. It is equipped with a six-cylindered engine,

with a here of 313-6. ins., and a stroke of 41 ins., and it is rated at 26.3 h.p. The power is conveyed through a 9-in. single-plate clutch, with a vibration damper, to 'a three-speed-and-reverse

gearbox with synchromesh gears, which forms a unit with the engine. The final drive is by spiral-bevel gears, the rear axle being of the semi-floating type.

The C20 chassis is shown as a short• wheelbase model with a fixed-sided lorry body. This chassis, which has a wheelbase of 11 ft. 1 in., is powered by a four-cylindered unit rated at 21 h.p.,

which has a bore of ,aft ins, and a stroke of 41 ins. A single-plate clutch is also used on this model, but the gearbox Is a four-speed-and-reverse unit. The rear axle is of the fully floating spiral-bevel type.

The next model in the range is the C30, which is shown in two forms, one with a standard lorry body and an allsteel driver's cab, and the other with an hydraulic end-tipping body. The wheelbase is 13 ft. 1 in. The rated capacity of this chassis is three tons, and it is eouipped with a six-cylindered engine, which develops 78.5

b h.p. at 3,400 r.p.m.

The final exhibit is a C40 chassis with an all-steel driver's cab. Incidentally, it should be mentioned that the cabs on all the International exhibits are of all-steel construction. The power unit

of the C40 is a six-cylindered overheadvalve unit, rated at 28.3 h.p. and developing 78 b.h.p. at 3,400 r.p.na. The bore is 3* ins., and the stroke 4 ins. Features of the engine include a counterbalanced four-bearing crankshaft, a downdraught carburetter, thermostatically controlled cooling and exhaustvalve seat inserts. The clutch is of the plate type and it conveys the drive to a five-speed-and-reverse gearbox, in which helical gears are used for the third and fourth speeds. In this case, too, the final drive is by spiral. bevel gears.—International Harvester Co. of Great Britain, Ltd., 259, City Road, London, E.C.1.
