The invention relates to the technical field of
agricultural machinery and particularly relates to a rotary
tiller. The rotary
tiller comprises a
vehicle frame, a power traction device and a rotary
tillage device, wherein the power traction device is arranged in the front of the
vehicle frame, and the rotary
tillage device is arranged in the back of the
vehicle frame; and the rotary
tillage device comprises a transmission frame, a transmission mechanism, a rotary knife
assembly and a protective hood, the transmission frame is fixedly connected onto the vehicle frame, the transmission mechanism is arranged in the transmission frame and drives the rotary knife
assembly to rotate, the rotary knife
assembly comprises a knife shaft and rotary knives rotating along with the knife shaft,
cutting knives are arranged in the protective hood, each
cutting knife is arranged between every two adjacent rotary knives, one end of each
cutting knife is connected with a reciprocating push mechanism, the other end of each cutting knife is pointed to the axis of the knife shaft, and the reciprocating push mechanisms are arranged at the outer side of the protective hood and drive the cutting knives to reciprocate along the radial direction of the knife shaft. According to the rotary
tiller, soil blocks or weeds attached to the rotary knives can be effectively stripped or chopped, so that the hacking performance and rotary tillage effect are improved; and the depth of soil piercing of the rotary knives can be adjusted, so that the resistance to the soil piercing of the rotary knives is low, and the
power consumption of cutting and soil crushing of the rotary knives is lowered.
