Five years ago, a very unusual museum one might even say exceptional. It shakes the imagination of visitors with its exhibits. This is the scientific and technical museum of the history of the tractor in Cheboksary. At the end of October 2016, he celebrates his small, but still significant historical anniversary for the Republic of Chuvashia and the country as a whole.

City of Cheboksary

The Tractor Museum opened in Cheboksary not by chance. This is not just a city of Chuvashia, which is part of the Volga District, on geographical map Russia. It is called the pearl and cultural capital (since 2003) of the Volga region. It is a city with a long history, rich culture and traditions. It is recognized as one of the most comfortable (2001, 2013), clean and green (2006, 2007) subjects of Russia. In addition, the capital of Chuvashia is one of the centers of domestic tractor construction.

Concern Tractor Plants

It must be said that tractor building is an integral branch of Russian engineering. Let out production are ready tractors, and also all necessary spare parts and details to them.

In our country there is a concern "Tractor Plants". This is a machine-building and industrial association of companies since 2006. They include 25 enterprises around the world, among which 10 are from the Chuvash Republic (and 9 are located in Cheboksary):

• JSC "Promtractor"
• LLC "Promtractor-Promlit"
• OJSC "Cheboksary Aggregate Plant"
• LLC "MIKONT"
• LLC "AMH"
• JSC "CHETRA - PM".
• LLC "CHETRA - KZCH".
• OOO SPM.
• CJSC Complex Solution.
• CJSC Promtractor-Vagon (in Kanash).

Cheboksary: ​​Tractor Museum

And what about tractor enterprises? Here's the thing: the Tractor Plants concern took a direct part in 2011 in the creation of a republican landmark in the capital of Chuvashia. The concern's president, Mikhail Bolotin, proposed to open this city(Cheboksary) Tractor Museum. The proposal was responded to and supported by: the Union of Machine Builders of Russia, the Foundation Russian culture and the state corporation Rostekhnologii. This museum in Russia has become exceptional in its kind, there is nothing like it anywhere else: it is both specialized (specialization - tractor building), and educational, and scientific and educational (explains information in an accessible and reliable way and acquaints anyone with history).

Contemporary museum for visitors

Approximately 1.5 thousand square meters of the museum are located on Prospekt Mira, 1. Tourists who come to get to know Cheboksary, as well as local residents of the republic (who - for the first time, and who - once again) flock here. The administration takes a fairly active position in communicating with the audience and offers interesting programs. For example, the “weekend club” offers an active and very entertaining time for both adults and children: listeners can not only learn about the history of the development of mechanical engineering (in the world, Russia) and see with their own eyes different brands of tractors, but also take part personally in. .. tractor test drive! Both old and young will be happy to test radio-controlled models of tractors, assemble their own themed Lego equipment, participate in various competitions, watch films, use a sledgehammer to knock out an imprint on a coin depicting the very first tractor in the world (and take it with you as a keepsake). ). Here you can get a lot of impressions by riding a local museum attraction. The big advantage is the opportunity to touch and feel the exhibits (for example, it's great to get into the legendary "Belarus" - its name is often confused, apparently because of the consonance with the name of the country, so it is more popularly known as the tractor "Belarus"), sit inside cabins, take photos.

Another undoubted advantage is that children's holidays (for example, birthdays) can be held in this place. Amazing museum!

Programs are transformed and supplemented. Museum employees are guided by visitors who simply cannot get bored within the walls of this institution. If you call and inform about your desire to come on a tour, you will probably be told what exactly will be waiting for you in the program. Or you can just go to the official website and get acquainted with the latest news, information is constantly updated there.

Museum Models

The Tractor History Museum acquaints visitors with the history of the development of not only domestic, but also foreign tractor construction. You can see the collection of the museum: it contains about 40 different tractors (some are even in working order), including legendary tractors (for example, the model range of MTZ - the Minsk Tractor Plant). By the way, on closer examination and close acquaintance with this nearby, pay attention to "Belarus" (you can and should ask the guide why this name is trying to displace another - the "Belarus" tractor).

Among other things, the exposition includes about 500 tractor models and over 5,000 all sorts of historical rarities.

More about the exposition

The museum has several zones logically arranged in historical order:

Availability

The Tractor History Museum is available to the public. The cost of visiting is low. If you decide to come and get acquainted with the history of the transformation of the tractor, look and sit inside the exhibits (without a guide), it will be inexpensive: students - 50, children - 40, adults - 100 rubles. Visiting time is not limited. If you wish, you can book a tour to not only see, but also listen to information, ask questions. The ticket price will be slightly higher. If there are less than 15 people in the group, the price will be 250 rubles. For groups of more than 15 people - only 25 rubles per visitor. Children will be able to join the history and culture without payment preschool age, museum staff, Heroes of the Soviet Union and Russian Federation, Participants of the Great Patriotic War and full cavaliers of the Order of Glory. A separate price list is presented for photo and video shooting, test drives, the use of radio-controlled equipment and the production of coins. Ticket prices and services are best specified in advance on the website or by phone.

How to get there

If you come to Cheboksary, the Tractor Museum will be happy to meet you: provide opportunities for exploring unexplored areas and cheer you up. It is located at: Mira Avenue, 1. You can get to the Aggregatny Zavod stop by city minibuses (No. 42, 45, 48, 51, 52, 54, 63) or trolleybuses (No. 5, 9, 15, 18 , 19). It will not be difficult to navigate further: the museum is located on the territory of the plant, and signs will tell you where to go.

Do you know that back in the 30s, Russia exported tractors to Europe?
And that the world's first caterpillar tractor was created in Russia?
And invented his former serf, and even received a patent?

Learn from us in Cheboksary.
Already at the entrance to the city, guests are met by such a tractor:

This composition unequivocally hints at the fact that one of the largest tractor factories in Russia is located here:

Cheboksary. View of Promtractor and Novoyuzhny district

And we also have the only tractor history museum in Russia:

You should definitely come here with your kids.
Here is a huge number of exhibits in the format of a toy:

And in the halls of the museum the whole history of the mechanization of agriculture is shown.

The biggest revolution in this matter was, of course, the plow. It made it possible to make agriculture mass and quite productive.
Then for many millennia there were only improvements to the knife itself, plowing the land.
Even such a strange mechanism is shown in the museum:

Moreover, forges were needed to shoe a horse:

And then it was time for technology. Metallurgy developed by leaps and bounds:

It turned out to be quite natural to replace the driving force of the horse with the power of the steam engine.
The story of how the world's first caterpillar tractor was invented is widely known:
"On March 27, 1878, the Russian peasant F. Blinov applied for a patent for the "wagon with endless rails" he had invented...
Blinov's tractor had a steam engine and a two-track undercarriage system.:

Yes, yes, the management of all new tractors, excavators and other machines today is not what it used to be. All computer interfaces!

And, of course, the soldier who does not dream of becoming a general is bad.
So it's time to think about the future:

In the very great hall historical exhibits are located - Russian and foreign tractors of all times, which have only been assembled.
Collected a lot:

America, which received only income from the First World War, made agriculture industrial earlier. Here is her tractor:

Nevertheless, industrialization has also borne fruit in Russia. Look, for example, at the "Universal" tractor, which was produced in the 1930s and exported to Holland, Iran and Turkey. Produced by the plant "Red Putilovets" from 1934 to 1940; then the evacuated production was launched in 1944 at the Vladimir Tractor Plant:

These "old-school" tractors were built according to the "cowboy" principle, you have to sit on them practically on horseback (although it is much more spacious on a horse). It’s impossible for a person of my height to work on such machines - my knees rest!

Much more convenient was the long-liver KD-35 of the Lipetsk Tractor Plant, which was produced from 1944, and until 1973 its widely used main components were produced:

However, even more modern tracked vehicles did not differ in ergonomics and interior luxury:

Well, where else can you sit behind the levers of such rare exhibits?!
By the way, they claim that most of them have been restored to working condition.

Here you can also get acquainted with the internal structure of the main tractor units:

And everyone will find an exhibit to their liking:

By the way, on the basis of the Tractor History Museum "September 26 - October 3, 2014 in Cheboksary, the capital of the Russian industrial tractor industry, the competition of inventors and innovators "Kulibin of the XXI century" is held for the fourth time. institutions of all forms of ownership to the decision actual problems engineering industry through the development and implementation of new technical solutions, inventions, utility models and rationalization proposals.
This year it is held in two categories:
- tractor equipment
- agricultural machinery and implements"

Well, since it is held, it means that there are both participants and demand. What pleases!

Not to say that I would be a true fan of the tractor. But I have great respect for any heavy equipment, and I have separate warm feelings for tractors. He is beautiful, rumbles pleasantly and has many benefits: for example, you can follow him on a bicycle and ride forty kilometers an hour without stress. In general, I love the tractor. Therefore, an unplanned visit to the Tractor History Museum in Cheboksary caused me a special thrill. Here I was lucky twice: firstly, we were not going to stop by the capital of Chuvashia, but we had to visit it on the way from Nizhny Novgorod on one trifling working matter, and secondly, we ended up in a museum that was not yet officially open, and they let us in with the wording “okay, come in, since you’ve arrived.” We went in and were pleasantly surprised. In contrast to the Nizhny Novgorod technical museums, which were rather based on enthusiasm, which we walked around in droves during that trip, here good financial injections were clearly added to the enthusiasm: they obviously invested quite a lot in the interior. Actually, a rather big sign on the facade of the museum spoke about the non-poverty of the museum. And the interior is finished quite modernly, reproductions of old Soviet posters with tractors hang in the lobby, everything is decorated in a restrained and pleasant way.

The exposition is to match: slender, neat, well-lit shelves with exhibits - from the tools of ancient farmers to futuristic sketches, light boxes, shelves with models, books, albums, and a lot of historical material, photographs and posters. Too bad our spontaneous visit didn't include excursions; a detailed story of the guide would add cognitive value to this cultural trip.

Museum dioramas deserve special mention. Nicely made, good quality. Covering times from the distant past to the present and even the future. Here, for example, "The evolution of the plow and traction force":

Fragment of the interior of the forge:

Closer to our times. Locksmith workshop:

"In the Diamond Quarry"

"In the ancient forests". Pathetic name :)

(Un)probable future. "Cetra Tractor on Mars"

A separate song - models and layouts. There is an incredible amount of them here! In the first halls devoted to history, there are not so many of them, but towards the end of the exhibition, rows of shelving are waiting, densely packed with the most different models- not only tractors, but also excavators, bulldozers, cranes, dump trucks, combines. Real abundance in 1:43 scale! There are so many “models” that I couldn’t photograph them all, and grumbling about the blatant lack of spirituality in relation to visitors, I limited myself to a panorama, into which all the racks still did not fit.

But the most "delicious" is found at the end. In the last hall, it would be more accurate to call it a hangar - a large, spacious, bright hangar, there is a collection of real tractors, from ancient rarities to modern models. Two dozen wheeled and tracked vehicles, beautifully restored and painted in elegant colors. A feast for the eyes!

The oldest exhibit is the Fordson-Putilovets, the first-born of the Soviet tractor industry, copied from the American Fordson F, produced in the USA since 1917. Fordson was one of the most popular, simple and cheap light tractors in the world at that time. "FP" was produced at the Putilov plant in Leningrad from 1924 to 1932. It was the first tractor in the world to have a frameless design and the first to be mass-produced.

The simplicity of design, ease of operation, low cost and low metal consumption made the Putilovets the most popular Soviet tractor of its time, and its production was constantly increasing, reaching tens of thousands of units per year. But the simplicity and cheapness of the design had back side. Far from perfect was the ignition system, which gave the factory workers a lot of trouble. Repair of some components of the structure was difficult. The 20-horsepower engine lacked power, and under heavy work conditions, it overheated due to the design features of the lubrication system. Ford's design was designed for a much more gentle operation in medium-sized farms, and not for shock work on collective farm fields. Finally, the absence of wings on the rear wheels turned into inconvenience for the driver: not only could they easily throw mud at him, the open spurs of the wheels could also injure him (Apparently, this drawback was subsequently eliminated. The museum exhibit has wings, they are also found on some historical photographs).

In the early 30s of the XX century, Putilovets was replaced by a more technically advanced STZ (SKhTZ) -15/30. The history of its appearance is curious. Already in 1925, when the production of "FP" in Leningrad had just begun, the authorities started talking about the need to build a specialized plant for the production of tractors. Since there was practically no experience of own tractor building in the USSR, they again decided to take a foreign design as a basis, but this time on a competitive basis. Five young engineers were given the task, at their own discretion, to take as a basis the project of any foreign tractor and present it to the commission for protection. In the summer of 1926, the commission chose the International 10/20 project of the American firm McCormick Deering. A year later, an industrial assignment was approved for the construction of a plant in Stalingrad with an annual production of 10,000 tractors of this type, and a year later it was decided to double the design capacity of the plant.

Tractor McCormick Deering International 10/20:

But in the meantime, the McCormick Deering International 15/30 tractor won the first place at the international testing competition, and the factory project was redesigned again: now it was supposed to produce 40,000 International 15/30 tractors annually! The first STZ-15/30 left the gates of the largest tractor plant in 1930, and the STZ reached its design capacity only in 1932, having overcome "childhood illnesses" with great difficulty. By this time, the production of a tractor of the same design was also established at the Kharkov plant, where it received the designation SHTZ-15/30.

The design of the STZ-15/30 was more advanced than the Putilovets. More powerful engine (30 hp), lubrication system with oil pump and filter, oil air cleaner. The engine was started manually, with a "crooked starter", and the collective farmers in their own way deciphered the abbreviation KhTZ: "hell start the tractor." On the assembly line, 15/30 lasted until 1937, when both plants that produced it were redesigned to produce the STZ-NATI caterpillar tractor. In 1948-50, the tractor was produced by the Second Automobile Repair Plant in Moscow. In total, almost 400,000 of these tractors were produced.

"Fordson-Putilovets" and STZ-15/30 were suitable for arable work, but were not suitable for tilled. For a row-crop tractor, the wheel alignment must exactly correspond to the distance between the rows, which different cultures varies within one and a half meters. A row-crop tractor, in addition, must be reliable in control and not “scour” when moving from side to side, and the height of the ground clearance must take into account the height of the cultivated plants - and this is only a small part of the basic requirements for such machines. In the early 1930s, designers tried to create a row-crop tractor based on the Putilovets and STZ-15/30, but tests showed that such measures were indispensable, and the specialists of the Scientific Auto Tractor Institute (NATI) were instructed to develop a row crop.

Again, the American McCormick Farmall was taken as the basis, as the most successful design of that time. When adapting the universal American machine to Soviet realities, engineers faced a number of problems. For example, it turned out that it was not possible to create a universal tractor suitable for processing all crops cultivated in the Union. Therefore, for the first time in world practice, two modifications of the tractor were simultaneously developed at once - three- and four-wheeled (U-1 and U-2). In the 1940s, the U-3 and U-4 appeared to work with cotton.

Museum U-2:

The tractor, largely unified with the STZ-15/30, was named "Universal" and was mass-produced from 1934 to 1940 at the Krasny Putilovets Leningrad plant. From 1944 to 1955, the pioneer among domestic row-crop tractors was produced at the new tractor plant in Vladimir. By the way, "Universal" became the first Soviet tractor, which was exported abroad.

The three-wheeled U-4, designed for the installation of cotton pickers, received pneumatic tires for the first time in the USSR:

At the end of the 30s, the question arose of the production of a medium tractor, which would take an intermediate position between the low-power STZ-15/30 and the heavy STHZ-NATI with a power of 52 hp. The history of the appearance of such a model stretched for a decade and a half - the first prototypes of a machine of this class were developed back in 1932-33. at the Kharkov Tractor Plant, but there they soon took over the production of the STHZ-NATI already mentioned above, and continued the development of a medium-power tractor at the Kirov Plant, where from 1936 to 1939 they created eight modifications based on the Caterpillar R-2. But soon started Patriotic War interrupted design research until 1943, when specialists were recalled from the front and entrusted with the development of a medium caterpillar tractor, which could be used both as an arable and row-crop tractor, and a plant in Lipetsk was reconstructed for the production of a tractor. In December 1944, the first batch of K-35s with a ZIS-5T gasoline engine was sent to the Crimea and the North Caucasus. Modified according to the test results in the second half of 1946, they were tested in Armavir, after which they were approved for mass production, and the creators of the K-35 were awarded two state awards - for the tractor and separately for its diesel engine. In 1950, a modification of the KDP-35 appeared - "Kirov Diesel Row".

KD-35 was produced, except for Lipetsk, at the Minsk MTZ and in Brasov (Romania). It turned out to be a long-liver: it was produced until 1960, and many of its units were used on the T-38 / T-38M that replaced it on the conveyor until 1973.

The T-38 eliminated all the shortcomings of the KDP-35. The designers increased the reliability and service life of the undercarriage, used centralized lubrication of the rollers, which reduced their maintenance time by several times, increased the smoothness of the ride, and improved stability. To perform general-purpose work, a second, wide pair of caterpillars was attached to the tractor.

The first Soviet small-sized tractor, KhTZ-7, produced from 1950 to 1956 in Kharkov. Designed for light agricultural work in vegetable growing and horticulture with trailed and mounted agricultural implements. It had a 12-horsepower gasoline engine. The design made it possible to adjust the ground clearance, track width, work in reverse mode, for which the position of the controls and the driver's seat changed. Through the power take-off shaft, stationary machines could be driven to the drive pulley. The rear wheels could be filled with water to increase traction.

In my opinion, KhTZ-7 is one of the most beautiful exhibits of the museum.

KhTZ-7 evolved into diesel DT-14, and that, in turn, into DT-20. Produced from 1958 to 1969. The DT-20 was very versatile - it also had adjustable ground clearance and track width, the driver's workplace was transformed to work with front-line agricultural machines in reverse, and even the wheelbase could change.

Perhaps the most dandy coloring can boast of one of the two presented in the museum "Vladimir" T-28. If the first one, of an inconspicuous blue-gray color, modestly nestled in the corner behind one of the Universals, then the second one stands in the very center of the hall and attracts attention with a bright and contrasting purple-yellow color. Stilyaga, not otherwise! The time of its release just coincided with the heyday of this youth subculture in the Union: 1958-1964. The design of the T-28, which became further development T-24, was so successful that "Vladimirets" was awarded the first prize and the Big Gold Medal world exhibition in Brussels.

In 1946, in Minsk, on the basis of the 453rd aviation plant, a new tractor-building enterprise was created - the Minsk Tractor Plant, MTZ. Starting with the assembly of plows first, and then starting engines, the plant soon began production of KD-35 tractors. And since 1953, the MTZ-1 and MTZ-2 of their own design went into the series. A few years later, as a result of a thorough modernization, the MTZ-50 tractor appeared, one of the most successful and widespread tractor designs in the USSR. It's no joke - constantly changing, "fifty dollars" rolled off the assembly line for 23 years - from 1962 to 1985, after which it was produced for some time in limited quantities for export, and in the 90s, having experienced another reincarnation, returned to the market under the brand name "Belarus- 500". The total number of produced MTZ-50s is more than 1,250,000 pieces.

The tractor was equipped with a 55 hp diesel engine, the transmission had 9 forward speeds and 2 rear ones.

Several modifications were produced. For example, the all-wheel drive MTZ-52, the leading front axle of which is automatically activated depending on road conditions.

And this is the cotton-growing version of the MTZ-50X with a double front wheel. Produced jointly with the Tashkent Tractor Plant.

An experimental tractor of the Lipetsk Tractor Plant with all driven steered wheels, a central cab, an engine located above the front axle. The permanent drive was front, the rear axle was connected automatically when the front wheels slipped. The tractor did not go into the series.

Caterpillar high power tractor DT-74, designed for agricultural, land reclamation and road construction works. Produced at the Kharkov plant from 1960 to 1984.

The most massive caterpillar tractor in the USSR is the DT-75, which has gained fame for its good performance and low cost compared to its counterparts. It has been produced in various modifications since 1962 to this day - of course, constantly being modernized - in Volgograd, from 1968 to 1992 it was also produced in Pavlodar under the brand name "Kazakhstan". Those of the modifications in which the enlarged fuel tank was located to the left of the driver's cab, and she herself was shifted to the right of the longitudinal axis of the tractor, received the nickname "postman". This cabin appeared in 1978. The museum DT-75, painted in authentic red, has a “postman's” cabin. The tractor was awarded the Gold Prize at the Leipzig International Fair in 1965.

DT-75M early release with old cab:

And this, in my opinion, is the main show-stopper of the entire museum: the arable tracked "Altai" T-4, produced at the Altai Tractor Plant from 1964 to 1970, and until 1998 as the T-4A. In the museum, apparently, there is a transitional model - with a new cabin from the T-4A, but an old-style engine hood. T-4(A), common in the virgin lands of Siberia and Kazakhstan, were powerful and adapted for hard work on irrigated soils. They were not very pleasant in operation - the caterpillar design was unreliable, the tractor was difficult to maintain, and in summer and autumn, due to the low (only 9 km / h) speed, the T-4s were idle, because they were not suitable for work of this period.

But all this is not so important. The most important thing is what exactly this museum "Altai" is. It is, in fact, cut along. How in visual aid, in the figure in the textbook or on the poster, are shown in a section of the interior of the tractor, its components and parts; you can look inside and get an idea of ​​\u200b\u200btheir device. Well, how can you not admire?!

Two modern "babies" come from Kurgan. Quite familiar to the city dweller is the “multi-purpose utility construction machine” MKSM-800 ...

And a KMZ-12 mini-tractor. Both machines are designed to work with a variety of attachments - from cargo forks to concrete mixers.

But on the open area of ​​the museum are the largest exhibits. Here is another veteran of Soviet construction projects, the Chelyabinsk "weaving" T-100. On board it is written S-100, although the cockpit with a beveled "forehead" is clearly from the "teshki"; Wikipedia tells us that "the T-100 tractor was often traditionally called the S-100." Produced from the mid 60s to the late 70s. In 1968 he received gold medal at an international exhibition.

ChTZ T-170, a descendant of the "hundred part", which went into series in 1988. By this time, its design was already quite outdated compared to foreign counterparts. For example, friction clutches were inherited from the Stalinist S-80 of the 1946 model. The advantages of the T-170 include simplicity of design and low cost compared to analogues.

The most important giant of the exposition is the heavy industrial tractor Chetra T-330, "Cheboksary". The firstborn of the Cheboksary Tractor Plant appeared in the mid-1970s and was then a completely modern unit. A rare solution for bulldozers used on it is a cab shifted forward, which improves visibility. The dimensions of the tractor are really impressive: length - 10.4 meters, height - more than 4! And it looks impressive: in front - a bulldozer blade with a human height, behind a predatory sting hangs a ripper. Brutal handsome man!

Excellent museum. A pleasant combination of love for your work and financial support. Not for everyone technical museum so lucky. In addition to the traditional exposition, they say, there is also an interactive part - virtual tours of the country's factories and 3D design modeling for everyone. With all this, ticket prices are quite democratic: an adult ticket costs 25 rubles, photography, it seems, another 50. Only the situation with the website is not entirely clear: it looks clearly unfinished. But this, perhaps, is not a very significant "fly in the ointment." Considering that this museum is the only one of its kind, it definitely becomes a must-visit.

On September 22, 2017, the Museum of the Minsk Tractor Plant, the flagship of mechanical engineering of the Republic of Belarus, opened its doors wide for visitors.
