What to do for rural residents who urgently need to get to the hospital, but the quality of the roads leaves much to be desired? For this, the UAZ 3962 (39629) ambulance was created, the serial production of which has been going on since 1985 to the present.

In fact, in its segment, the Ulyanovsk SUV has no direct competitors that would combine reliability, cross-country ability and low cost.

UAZ 3962 (39629) is an ambulance for medical services off-road with a wheel arrangement of 4 × 4, designed for transportation of patients on roads with any type of coverage and off-road.

In the equipped condition, the "nurse" weighs 2035 kg, and on board is capable of accepting loads weighing 845 kg.

In terms of appearance, the sanitary UAZ 3962 (39629) does not stand out in anything special - it is a well-known "loaf", with the red cross and medical service stickers applied. The car looks impossibly simple, but at the same time it is perceived as a hardworking and reliable hard worker.

The interior of the ambulance fully matches the exterior - everything is simple and concise, but well thought out. Dashboard has an outdated design, but gives out all the necessary information. The UAZ 3962 has a nine-seater salon, the seats sport soft upholstery, and there is a place for an accompanying person. An additional interior heater is included in the list of basic equipment.

On the sanitary "loaf", the engine is located right in the cockpit, which has several positive aspects. For example, it plays the role of another interior heater, the heat from which allows the interior to warm up most efficiently.

There are negative points- there is a risk that fresh paint may remain on clothing or on the body when the engine heats up.

2015 UAZ 452 "Loaf" 2.0MT / 90 hp - EXCLUSIVE, HAND-ASSEMBLED

UAZ-452 / UAZ-3741(popularly called "Loaf", "Tablet") - a car produced at the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant. Serial production of the UAZ-452 began in 1965. The engine is a variant of the GAZ-21 engine.

UAZ-452 is a special cargo-passenger, four-wheel drive, two-axle off-road vehicle with a 4 × 4 wheel arrangement. The car has been produced by the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant since 1965. It is the oldest by the number of years of issue Russian car... Due to the external resemblance to a loaf of bread, the people began to be called "Loaf", "Pill", military modifications - "Tablet", as they are used by doctors. Cars produced in the period from 1965 to 1979 were distinguished by the presence of old-style lighting equipment, (colorless turn signals, taillights round shape), stamping of the last side false window going back to the rear doors, more rounded rear corners of the body, a special niche for the number plate on the left rear door. The car is produced both in a body (wagon) and in an onboard version ("tadpole"). The car body can be equipped with side single-leaf doors and a double-leaf rear door (door configuration depends on the specific modification).

Sanitary SUV

The "new" SUV (4x4) was the result of the development of the UAZ-452 A and, like its predecessor, was intended for the medical service. In appearance, the machines were very similar: more new model can only be distinguished by the missing internal railings on the windows. Another distinctive feature appeared a little later - the central side windows with rotary vents on the left side were replaced by monolithic ones.

Overall in appearance UAZ-39629 is nothing particularly remarkable - everything is simple and without frills. Apparently, no one thought about the beauty of the car when it was created.

The interior decoration of the salon fully corresponds to the external data - it is laconic, practical, there is nothing superfluous, and everything is thought out to the smallest detail. The driver's cab is separated from the sanitary room by a partition into which a sliding glass is inserted. In the medical part of the cabin, folding benches are provided, on which from 7 to 9 people can be accommodated, or two stretchers can be installed on special mounts.

The engine in the UAZ-39629 is located under the casing in the cab to the right of the driver. This arrangement of the motor has certain advantages: in winter, the power unit becomes a source of additional heat for heating the passenger compartment, and in the event of a breakdown, it provides the convenience of repair, and in almost any weather and regardless of the time of day.

The driver's seat does not differ in special amenities. The dashboard does not shine with novelty design either, but at the same time it contains all the sensors necessary for the driver.

In a word, if you remove the stickers that speak of its belonging to medicine from this car and repaint it in khaki color, then it will quite pass for a military vehicle, traditionally distinguished by its asceticism.

UAZ-39629: characteristics

The two cars, UAZ-3962 and 39629, are practically the same. The difference lies only in the engines: a stronger engine is installed on the UAZ-39629 - UMZ-4218 with a total cylinder capacity of 2.89 liters and a capacity of 86 liters. with.

UAZ-396295-356 Soft interior, dvig. ZMZ-4091, 112 hp, folding benches, driver's, passenger's and accompanying seats are comfortable.

The sanitary all-wheel drive vehicle UAZ-3962 (39629) is designed for transportation of patients and can be used to service ambulance stations and evacuate victims both in cities and in rural areas.

The sanitary room is equipped with folding seats and an attachment for installing 4 stretchers, the possibility of placing sanitary equipment is provided. A swivel headlight is installed at the front of the roof.

The use of UAZ-3962 in medicine is not all that it is capable of. The area of ​​use of the "nurse" is much wider. People's ingenuity has long turned it into a utility vehicle: after all, thanks to the folding benches, up to 9 people can be accommodated here or the corresponding equivalent of cargo. Moreover: it will not only help you in your work, but also provide you with relaxation and comfort during the trip. For this, in April 1997, the production of a car with soft upholstery and comfortable seats for the driver, passenger and (note!) An accompanying person in the cabin began.

• with a working volume of 2.89 liters (power - 98 hp) - UMP-4218, produced by the Ulyanovsk Motor Plant.

Technical characteristics of UAZ 3962:

Started production of minibuses with full or rear wheel drive in the early 60s. Since then, lighting equipment, power systems for engines, brakes have changed, but the general design of the machines has not undergone noticeable changes.

Ulyanovsk minibuses, nicknamed "loaf" for their characteristic shape, are used in various fields. One of these areas is the creation of ambulances for off-road conditions.

"Nurse" with all-wheel drive

The reason for the creation of an ambulance with all-wheel drive was the lack of roads between many small settlements in the USSR. Since 1989, to provide ambulance stations in such places, the sanitary UAZ-3962 has been produced. The car in this version is still produced today, since it has no competitors capable of combining maintainability and high cross-country ability. However, the key factor when choosing a UAZ-3962 car is the price, which in the fall of 2017 is just under 510 thousand rubles. The list of additional options is not rich and consists of one position - a turning headlight on the roof with a cost of 1,000 rubles.

The basic equipment of the machine includes anti-lock braking system brakes, power steering and an additional heater for the passenger compartment. Inside the compartment there are stretcher guides and two places for paramedics or attendants. Along the wall and on the ceiling, there are regular places for the installation of medical equipment.

Specifications

Structurally, the UAZ-3962 is an ordinary minibus with four-wheel drive, slightly adapted for the transportation of patients and medical personnel. Outside, a red stripe is applied to the car with the words "Ambulance health care»And telephone 03 on the wide B-pillar. The second color option includes the "Medical Service" lettering on the front doors and a medical cross. Typical color options for the UAZ-3962 are shown in the photo above and below.

The car is equipped with an all-metal wagon-type frame body and has one side door on the left side and two doors on the right. Loading a stretcher with a patient is carried out through rear doors with symmetrical swing leaves. The overall dimensions of the car do not differ from the rest of the Ulyanovsk minibuses.

UAZ-3962 is equipped with a single type of engine. This is a gasoline four-cylinder 112-strong unit ZMZ 4091. The engine has a volume of almost 2700 cubic meters and runs quietly on A92 gasoline. A sufficiently powerful engine allows you to accelerate the sanitary "loaf" to 125-127 km / h.

But due to the heavy weight of the car and poor aerodynamics, fuel consumption is never lower than 13.5 liters, even in the suburban cycle. On difficult terrain, consumption increases and can reach 25 liters or more. Gasoline is stored in a 77-liter tank.

Off-road ability

The UAZ-3962 vehicle is equipped with a transmission for all-wheel drive, which includes:

• Five-speed gearbox.
• Two-speed transfer case.
• Drive shafts to bridges.
• Front axle with disengageable drive.
• Permanent drive rear axle.

Thanks to a clearance of about 205 mm, the car confidently moves on roads with deep ruts and overcomes water obstacles up to half a meter deep.
