The monorail transporter of mountains orchard had a compact size, strong carrying capacity, and can be installed in complex terrain, which can better meet the requirements of orchard use, and had received extensive attention at home and abroad. In order to improve the performance of the monorail transporter’s meshing mechanism, this paper took the meshing mechanism as the research object, and designed the driving pin wheel with fixed pin teeth, the driving pin wheel with rotating pin teeth and a single-track model with four different tooth widths. The virtual prototype model of the meshing mechanism was built by ADAMS/View. The experimental data shows that the speed RMS value of the driving pin wheel with rotating pin teeth is increased by 135% compared with the driving pin wheel with fixed pin teeth during the meshing of the driving pin wheel and the single-track, and the contact force RMS value generated during the meshing process is reduced by 36%, and the tooth width of the single-track has less influence on the performance of the meshing mechanism. The experimental results show that the driving pin wheel of rotating pin teeth can significantly improve the performance of the meshing mechanism.
