No More Trailer Woes: My Electric Towing Solution!

Tools and equipment we use - www.amazon.com/shop/madeinpoland
Moving trailers or devices with a hook can be very tiring and tiring, so we decided to make a vehicle that will make life easier.
We used generally available elements such as
Broken wheelchair motors
Wheels from ATV
Gel batteries
Motorcycle sprockets
Self-aligning bearings
Wiper motor
Dolly is very strong and agile. The batteries should last for about 30 minutes, which is sufficient for normal use.

[@MadeinPolandChannel]

A few answers to frequently asked questions :) The charging port is on the top cover, forgot to show it. The batteries last for about half an hour of driving. The maximum weight of a trailer or machine is approximately 500 kg / 1100 lbs.

I enjoy watching your new build slowly come together, but one thing I appreciate the most is seeing you use what you made in a past video, to help complete the new build. It confirms that they weren't simply gimmicks that were thrown together to make a video for subs/$ like some channels do. *Well done* as always.

[@Th4thWiseman]

@@YerBrwnDogAteMyRabit When you start out it's best to put things on paper just so it's easier to do but after doing many hundreds of builds you soon realise that when it comes to close tolerances fits and mating parts ,they are best done as you build out keeping mind what connects to what next and whether or not gussets are required for strengthening!

For anyone curious how to mig weld. There is usually a datasheet sticker with settings related to volts and wire feed speed. Just know the size of wire and check it out on the sticker. More expensive machines will guarantee this sticker is included. As far as gas flow it should be set to 20 cfh (cubic feet per hour) or 10 Lpm (liters per minute). If there is wind set 10 cfh higher or 5 Lpm adjustments. Er70s-6 is standard wire

[@Subgunman]

Nice build! Wish I had this back in the day when I used to work with concessions trailers, made spotting them a breeze! I do like the welding clip around the 13:30 minute mark, cut that segment in backwards so the sparks flew into the weld.

[@daithiosioradain3380]

Another fantastic build with a practical use. I modified some electric pallet trucks to do a similar job and learned a few things. On this build, the position of the ball hitch is very close to the drive centre line. This reduces steering effort. However, if the trailer hits resistance, the unit is going to try drive out from under the trailer - potentially whipping the handle upward quite violently. But I applaud your excellent craftsmanship and creativity!

[@sovrgnman]

@Daihti__ Exactly. Nothing to prevent violent swing up, down sideways if the towed or tow-er wheels hit an obstacle or hole, etc.. but besides that, nice workmanship 👍👍 🤔.. maybe an extension post added to the front with a caster wheel under it, and the trailer ball on top of that??

[@isaacmadhavan]

Perhaps, if the ball hitch were closer to the center of the towing vehicle, that might mitigate the upward swing?

[@daithiosioradain3380]

@@isaacmadhavan Actually the further forward of the centre, and the lower, the hitch and ideally the centre of gravity of the unit, the better. Hence the suggestion above of a caster wheel out front.

[@isaacmadhavan]

@@daithiosioradain3380 Aaah... you mean it would work as a lever to control the movement?

That is ABSOLUTELY genius!!! And the entire process is great to watch!!! Congrats on another successful project!!!

[@martinamadsen812]

Very clever idea and well made video.👍 The little power drive ball hitch device is very handy for relatively light loads, but a stronger version could be made for shifting heavier loads like carevans and medium size trailers. It make me a bit jealous to see the excellent skill in combination with good tools and equipment making this project look like child's play, but we can't all be equally skilled at everything...😀 PS, for people who may not already know it: Leaving skin, and especially eyes exposed to welding arc's glare can easily suffer damaging "flash burns" to exposed skin and permanent damage to their vision - and potentially skin cancers in the future.🤐 !

[@tootingcarmoon532]

The two wheels are rigidly connected to the same shaft, right? Shouldn't the shaft be split in the middle, so that each motor will drive its corresponding wheel? Because I don't see the point of having two motors, if they are not used as a differential system.

[@keepf9835]

Double the power, and if 1 chain breaks it won't run away

[@tootingcarmoon532]

@@keepf9835 even so, that raises another problem, because no two DC motors are the same, so without a closed loop control, the speeds will not be the same.
