Investigation of the types of hazards in the technological process of a single-bucket excavator

Abstract

The designs of modern road construction machines do not solve the problem of isolating the operator from the negative impact of both the production environment and the equipment. Constructive modification or exclusion of the operator from a potentially dangerous area of work when using remote control technology is an effective way to solve the problem. In this regard, the paper presents statistical data from the period 2019-2020 and provides a qualitative assessment of the risks associated with the operation of road construction machines. The occurrence of the events under consideration shows the assumption by operators of deliberate, often unmanageable risks when performing technological tasks. The study of scientific works has established that the problem of isolating the workplace of the operator of road construction machines from the negative factors of production conditions remains relevant.
