The relevance of this research lies in the need to develop a scientifically-grounded methodology for designing the optimal profile of the contact frontal surface of an energy-efficient earthmoving machine operating device, which ensures the redistribution of resistance forces along the cutting elements during the excavation of frozen soil when extracting hydrocarbons. The relevance is confirmed by the need to improve domestic methods for designing the profiles of effective operating devices, ensuring the excavation of frozen soils during the laying of oil and gas pipelines and geological exploration in permafrost areas. Increasing the energy efficiency and service life of highly loaded ripper teeth is done by optimizing the geometric profile and designing a spatial shape that provides minimal resistance to cutting the soil. The object of the research is the process of dynamic interaction of the ripper tooth cutting profile with the frozen soil environment. The research method used was kinematic analysis and force calculation. The cyclic process of dynamic loading of the ripper operating device was investigated. The methodology of system analysis, as well as the method of distribution of resistance forces over the geometric elements of the cutting edge, were used. The mathematical apparatus has been effectively applied to establish the dependences of the change in energy and power properties on performance indicators, soil rheology, and dynamic loads of the ripper tooth. The process of interaction of the ripper tooth tip with frozen soil was investigated. A method for substantiating the design parameters of the operating device by using Legendre polynomials was proposed. Separate calculation results subject to the introduced restrictions were presented for the condition for solving the problem. The optimal parameters of the transverse profile of the contact frontal surface of the earth-moving machine operating device were determined taking into account the coefficient of reducing the fracture resistance of frozen soils.
