Description

  The present invention relates to a harvesting device such as a combiner, a binder, or a mower, and more particularly, to a technology that can change an inclination angle of a cutting blade portion disposed in a harvesting device in front of a fuselage.

  A conventional combine is provided with a harvesting device that harvests cereals and the like by a harvesting unit having a cutting blade body in front of the machine body, and this harvesting device can be moved up and down by a lifting drive means constituted by a hydraulic cylinder or the like. Has been. When harvesting crops such as paddy rice, wheat, and soybeans, the harvesting efficiency (threshing / sorting efficiency) is usually better when harvesting the head side of the cereal than when harvesting the root side. It is operated by raising and lowering the cutting height.

On the other hand, if the cutting height is raised and the cereals are harvested, tall residues remain in the field, hindering subsequent work such as tilling, and preventing the persimmons from decaying. There was a problem. Therefore, in order to further improve the harvesting efficiency, the conventional combine is configured to arrange a second mower behind the mowing portion in front of the fuselage and trim the root of the residue with the second mower (for example, See Permissible Literature 1). Furthermore, a cutting height sensor is provided for detecting the ground height between the cutting device and the field scene, the cutting height is detected by the cutting height sensor, and the lifting drive means is detected by each detection signal of the cutting height sensor. It is configured to be driven up and down to automatically control the cutting height of the cutting device (for example, see Patent Document 2).

It is converted into a swing drive of the arm 66 and output. Then, in the cutting blade portion 42, the sliding blade 41 is reciprocated while being in sliding contact with the fixed blade 40, and the cereal in the field is cut.

  Next, a mechanism for rotating the cutting blade portion 42 in the cutting blade cases 43 and 49 on the left and right sides of the machine body will be described with reference to FIGS. In the cutting blade case 49 on the left side of the machine body, the outer cover is omitted for reference (FIGS. 14 and 15).

  The cutting blade portion 42 is supported and attached to the support brackets 78 of the substrate 77 disposed in the left and right cutting blade cases 43 and 49 via the support members 79 disposed at both ends. It is configured as a unit body integrally with 78 and the like. Mounting holes 85, 85... For positioning (three places in this embodiment) are provided in the board 77, and the side walls of the left and right cutting blade cases 43, 49 are provided in the board 77. A positioning hole 87a and a positioning hole 87b are respectively provided so as to correspond to positions substantially coincident with the mounting hole 85 in a side view. Each of the positioning holes 87a and 87b is provided so as to correspond to the number and position of the mounting holes 85, and bolts or the like are fitted into the mounting holes 85 and the positioning holes 87a and 87b, so that the substrate 77 can be used as a cutting blade case. Positioned and fixed at 43 and 49.

  The substrate 77 is pivotally supported by the left and right cutting blade cases 43 and 49 and the shaft portion 86, respectively. The positioning holes 87 a and 87 b rotate the shaft body 86 around the unit body including the cutting blade portion 42. When it is rotated as a moving center, it is penetrated at a position corresponding to each of the mounting holes 85. The axial direction of the shaft portion 86 is arranged so as to be substantially parallel to the reciprocating surface of the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade portion 42 in a side view (see FIG. 12).

  In a normal state, the cutting blade portion 42 is in a state where the cutting blade portion 42 is substantially parallel to the horizontal plane, in other words, in a state where the reciprocating surface of the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade portion 42 is substantially horizontal. Positioned (see FIGS. 12 and 14). In such a state, the mounting hole 85 of the substrate 77 is substantially aligned with the positioning hole 87a of the right cutting blade case 43 and is fixed by screwing with a bolt or the like. On the other hand, the unit body including the cutting blade portion 42 is rotated clockwise in FIG. 12 with the shaft portion 86 as the rotation center, and the angle at which the cutting blade portion 42 is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane (hereinafter, this angle is referred to as the inclination angle). in other words, the reciprocating surface of the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade portion 42 can be changed to a state where the inclination angle is θ (see FIGS. 13 and 15). In such a state, the mounting hole 85 of the substrate 77 is substantially aligned with the positioning hole 87b of the right cutting blade case 43 and is fixed by screwing with a bolt or the like. Thus, the angle of the cutting blade portion 42 can be easily changed by simply changing the bolt tightening position. And the board | substrate 77 is arrange | positioned in the position which is located in the both sides of the cutting blade part 42, and does not interfere with a drive part, and can be stably fixed to the cutting blade case 43 * 49 on the cutting frame 33 side, and is usually a cover. Covered and protected.

  When the cutting height of the cutting device 8 is changed and the cutting frame 33 is moved up and down, the second mower 34 is moved up and down by the parallel links 37 and 38 and the parallel links 47 and 48 in conjunction with this. When the grain blade is cut by the cutting blade portion 42, the inclination angle θ of the cutting blade portion 42 is offset by the cutting height of the cutting device 8 or the lift position of the second mower 34. The cutting blade portion 42 is configured to be able to change the offset angle θ of the inclination angle θ of the cutting blade portion 42 at the raising / lowering position of the cutting device 8 by being disposed so as to be rotatable relative to the cutting blade cases 43 and 49. ing.

  The unit body including the cutting blade part 42 is configured to be rotatable relative to the left and right cutting blade cases 43 and 49 in the vertical direction, and the fixed blade body 40 and the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade part 42 are inclined. By configuring so that the angle θ can be changed, in the second mower 34, it is possible to improve the efficiency of the cutting operation of the residue. That is, the angle of the cutting unit 42 can be changed in accordance with the type of culm to be cut, the field conditions, and the like by rotating the cutting blade unit 42 relative to the cutting frame 33 and changing the inclination angle θ of the cutting blade unit 42. As a result, the efficiency of harvesting cereals can be increased. For example, it is possible to surely cut cereals that are pressed by the reaping device 8 and lie down in a direction substantially parallel to the field, thin and soft cereals, etc. By doing so, it is possible to smoothly move the cocoon after cutting back, and to reduce the stock from being caught by the cutting unit 42. On the other hand, by tilting the cutting part 42 forward and downward, it is possible to cut the ground surface to the last minute and to reduce the height of the residue.

  Further, as described above, the shaft portion 86 that is the rotation axis of the substrate 77 is arranged in the left-right direction so that it is substantially the same as the reciprocating surface of the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade portion 42 in a side view. It is arranged so as to be parallel to each other, positioned above the middle part of the front and rear of the sliding blade body 41, and arranged so that the distance between the cutting blade part 42 and the shaft part 86 is as short as possible. The movement distance of is made shorter. With this configuration, the cutting blade portion 42 is rotated around the shaft portion 86 integrally with the substrate 77, so that the axial direction of the shaft portion 86 is the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade portion 42. If the cutting blade portion 42 is rotated, the drive portion and the cutting blade portion 42 do not interfere with each other, and the cutting blade portion 42 tilts when the cutting blade portion 42 is rotated. Thus, the reciprocating surface of the sliding blade body 41 can be prevented from being displaced or distorted, and the harvesting efficiency of the cereal can be further improved. However, as long as the rotation shaft is in the vicinity of the cutting blade portion 42, it can be arranged at the rear portion or the rear lower portion.

  The cutting blade portion 42 is supported by a substrate 77 on which the sled type sensor 51 and the like are arranged, and the substrate 77 is configured to rotate in the cutting blade cases 43 and 49, so that the cutting blade portion 42 Positioning becomes easy, and it is not necessary to adjust each sensor each time, and workability is improved. The attachment structure of the cutting blade part 42 is not limited to the above-described structure, and only the cutting blade part 42 may be configured to rotate relative to the cutting frame 33. Further, the offset position of the positioning hole 87 may be increased so that the inclination angle θ of the cutting blade portion 42 can be changed more finely using a screw or the like.

  Further, the second mower 34 in the present embodiment is configured such that the link mechanism 82 is positioned on the same axis of the shaft portion 86 that is the rotation center of the cutting blade portion 42. As described above, the sliding blade body 41 constituting the cutting blade portion 42 is slid by the knife bar 53, and the knife head 53 a of the knife bar 53 and the tip of the swing arm 66 are connected via the link mechanism 82. Are connected. The link mechanism 82 is a mechanism that converts the swinging motion of the swinging arm 66 into a horizontal reciprocating motion of the knife bar 53. In this embodiment, the link mechanism 82 is universally connected to the tip of the swinging arm 66. A joint 74 is formed. That is, the rotation center of the cutting blade portion 42 is provided in the middle of the power transmission mechanism for reciprocating the sliding blade body 41 of the cutting blade portion 42. It is provided at a position to be converted, and has a structure in which rotation is allowed with respect to the horizontal axis in the horizontal direction at the conversion position.

  The cutting blade portion 42 is disposed so as to be rotatable relative to the cutting frame 33, that is, to be capable of changing the position with respect to the right cutting blade case 43, while the swing arm 66 cannot be moved relative to the right cutting blade case 43. In the second mower 34 disposed on the shaft portion 86, the link mechanism 82 is positioned on the axial center of the shaft portion 86, so that vibration and wear in the drive path can be prevented. Since the separation distance between the moving arm 66 and the cutting blade portion 42 does not change, the sliding blade body 41 can be reciprocated stably. Further, the configuration of the link mechanism 82 can be simplified, the right cutting blade case 43 can be configured in a compact manner, and the cutting device 8 can be downsized.

  As described above, the second mower 34 disposed in the cutting device 8 has been described. However, as described above, the cutting unit 4 can be configured in substantially the same manner, and the cutting blade unit 27 can be rotated relative to the cutting frame 33. In addition to supporting, the axial center direction of the rotating shaft of the cutting blade portion 27 is configured to be substantially parallel to the reciprocating surface of the sliding blade body 41 constituting the cutting blade portion 27. A link mechanism (not shown) that slides the sliding blade body 41 on the axis of the shaft can be arranged.
