Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bract cleaning devices, and particularly relates to an auger type bract cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] The bract cleaning device is an important device on a corn harvester and is used to separate the bracts from the entrained corn kernels coming from the husker. At present, the mainstream cleaning method basically adopts auger cleaning, and some large corn harvesters adopt a vibrating screen type kernel recovery device for kernel cleaning. In the auger cleaning method, the main function of the auger is to push materials. During the cleaning process, the kernels are wrapped in the bracts, and the bracts cannot be fully disturbed and dispersed, so the kernel cleaning function is weak. After the bracts are discharged by the auger, the kernels in the bracts are lost in the field. The vibrating screen type kernel recovery device drives the vibrating screen surface to swing back and forth by a crank connecting rod mechanism. The bracts make an approximate linear reciprocating motion on the screen surface. The kernels in the bracts leave the bracts due to different inertia and fall into the kernel recovery box through the shell-shaped screen holes on the screen surface. However, since the bracts cannot be transported away from the screen surface in time, the screen surface is easily blocked by sundries such as bracts, resulting in a large loss of corn kernels. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is: how to fully separate the kernels and bracts and improve the cleaning effect.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model to solve the above technical problems is as follows:

An initial selection conveying trough and a cleaning chamber are arranged in the housing. An initial selection auger is arranged in the initial selection conveying trough, and a cleaning auger is arranged in the cleaning chamber. The initial selection conveying trough is not lower than the cleaning chamber. The outlet end of the initial selection conveying trough is communicated with the inlet end of the cleaning chamber. The top of the initial selection conveying trough is communicated with the top opening of the housing. Screen holes are arranged at the bottom of the initial selection conveying trough and the bottom of the cleaning chamber.

[0006] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0007] By adopting the utility model, the initial selection auger in the initial selection conveying trough preliminarily cleans the bracts and the entrained kernels, and most of the kernels are recovered. The cleaning auger in the cleaning chamber cleans the bracts and the remaining kernels again, and the remaining kernels are recovered. The full separation and recovery of the kernels are realized, and the processing efficiency is high. In addition, due to the action of the height difference, the bracts roll and loosen when falling from the initial selection conveying trough into the cleaning chamber, reducing the tightness of the remaining kernels wrapped, and improving the cleaning effect.

[0008] On the basis of the above technical solution, the utility model can also be improved as follows.

[0009] Further, the extending direction of the outlet end of the primary selection conveying trough is opposite to that of the outlet end of the cleaning chamber passage.
