Abstract [sv]
Volvo CE is one of the leading manufacturers of construction machinery, including wheel loaders. Volvo is constantly working to resolve problems and improve their products. For the L60H-L120H wheel loaders series, there are recurring problems with the cooling fan installation, during assembly as well as in operation. The problems are mainly deformations on the fan and hood. The aim of this study has therefore been to identify known problems and find constructional solutions to eliminate deformations and maintain or improve cooling performance. The changes in the design are mainly focusing on making the shroud a load-bearing structure and replacing the current console with arms to hold the fan installation in place. A 3D-model in Catia V5 has been created that meets the strength requirements that Volvo has for the fan installation. The solution has a simpler design that eliminates deformations and gives an increased cooling performance.
