[0003] In the field of agricultural machinery, especially in the development of harvester technology, the transmission case, as a core component for power transmission and speed control, has a performance directly related to the overall machine's operating efficiency, ease of operation, and safety. Traditional harvester transmission cases generally adopt a fixed output mode, lacking the ability to flexibly adjust the output speed to suit different operating environments and crop conditions. This not only limits the harvester's adaptability to different operating conditions, but also increases the operator's operational difficulty and labor intensity, reducing operational efficiency and safety. Furthermore, traditional transmission case designs often neglect the integration of emergency braking functions, lacking a quick and effective means of stopping the machine, posing challenges to safety control during operation. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present application provides a brakeable multi-gear transmission box and a harvester, which breaks through the limitation of the fixed output of the traditional transmission box and introduces different output gears and neutral settings, so that the driver can flexibly adjust the output speed of the transmission box directly through the gear shift operation in the cab according to the actual operation needs. It not only greatly improves the adaptability of the harvester under different crop types, soil conditions and operation stages, but also effectively reduces the complexity of operation, improves work efficiency and operation safety factor. A brake is added to the output end of the transmission box to realize the direct integration of the braking function. Through a simple pull rod operation, the driver can quickly brake the output end of the transmission box so that the machine can stop running immediately when needed. This not only enhances the emergency response capability of the harvester, but also provides a more reliable means for safety control during the operation process.

[0040] Unless otherwise stated, the term "number" means two or more.
[0041] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be combined with each other.
[0042] Combine Figure 1-4As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a brakeable multi-speed transmission box and a harvester, comprising: a box body 5, an input flange 7, an input shaft assembly 2, a sliding gear 22, a shift mechanism assembly 1, an output shaft 3, a plurality of speed change gears, and a brake 4;
[0043] The box body 5 has a receiving cavity;
[0044] The input flange 7 is arranged on the outside of the box body 5; the input flange 7 is used to connect to a power input mechanism, such as a motor.
[0045] The input shaft assembly 2 is partially rotatably arranged in the housing 5, and one end is matched with the input flange 7; the part of the input shaft assembly 2 extending out of the housing 5 is connected to the power input mechanism and is driven to rotate.
[0046] The sliding gear 22 is slidingly arranged on the input shaft assembly 2; the sliding gear 22 is provided with gears of different diameters corresponding to the speed gears, and an annular groove is provided between the gears. The annular groove cooperates with the shift mechanism assembly 1 and is driven to slide along the axial direction on the input shaft assembly 2. The surface of the input shaft is provided with an axial groove, and the sliding gear 22 cooperates with the groove to limit the sliding direction.
[0047] The shift mechanism assembly 1 is provided on the housing 5 and drives the sliding gear 22 to slide;
[0048] The output shaft 3 is rotatably arranged in the box 5 at the middle part and extends out of the box 5 at both ends;
[0049] A plurality of speed change gears are provided on the output shaft 3 and can selectively mesh with the sliding gear 22;
[0050] The brake 4 is arranged outside the box 5 and cooperates with either end of the output shaft 3. The structure and principle of the brake 4 are technical means well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. The brake 4 mainly serves to stop the output shaft 3.
[0051] The brakeable multi-gear transmission case and harvester provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure break through the limitation of the fixed output of the traditional transmission case and introduce different output gears and neutral settings, so that the driver can flexibly adjust the output speed of the transmission case directly through the gear shifting operation in the cab according to the actual operation requirements. This not only greatly improves the adaptability of the harvester under different crop types, soil conditions and operation stages, but also effectively reduces the complexity of operation, improves work efficiency and operation safety factor. A brake 4 is added to the output end of the transmission case to realize the direct integration of the braking function. Through a simple pull rod operation, the driver can quickly brake the output end of the transmission case so that the machine can stop running immediately when needed. This not only enhances the emergency response capability of the harvester, but also provides a more reliable means for safety control during the operation process.
[0052] In some embodiments, the end of the input shaft assembly 2 opposite the input flange 7 is hermetically connected to the housing 5 via a bearing and an end cap. The bearing may be a deep groove ball bearing. The other end of the input shaft assembly 2 is hermetically connected to the housing 5 via a bearing and the input flange 7.
[0053] In some embodiments, the plurality of speed gears include: a high-speed gear 33, a low-speed gear 32;
[0054] The high-speed gear 33 is disposed in the housing 5 ; the diameter of the high-speed gear 33 is larger than that of the low-speed gear 32 .
[0055] The low-speed gear 32 is disposed within the housing 5 and spaced apart from the high-speed gear 33. The width of the spaced apart area is greater than the width of the sliding gear 22, so that the sliding gear 22 does not mesh with any speed gear when it moves into the spaced apart area, thereby making the spaced apart area a neutral area. When the sliding gear 22 moves into the spaced apart area, it enters neutral gear.
[0056] In some embodiments, the shift mechanism assembly 1 includes: a fork shaft 11, a shift fork 13, a positioning lock hole 15, and a self-locking spring pin 14;
[0057] The fork shaft is partially arranged in the box body 5 and slides with the box body 5; one end of the fork shaft is tightly connected to the box body 5 through the fork shaft blocking cover 12, and the other end is tightly connected to the box body 5 through the fork shaft end cover 16. The fork shaft and the fork shaft end cover 16 are tightly connected through a skeleton oil seal.
[0058] The shift fork 13 is fixedly arranged on the fork shaft and drives the sliding gear 22 to move and shift; the shift fork 13 cooperates with the annular groove on the sliding gear 22.
[0059] The positioning lock hole 15 is provided on the fork shaft; there are three positioning lock holes 15, corresponding to the high gear, neutral gear, and low gear, respectively, which are respectively provided at positions corresponding to the self-locking spring pin 14 when the fork shaft is in the gear position.
[0060] A self-locking spring pin 14, mounted on the housing 5, engages with a positioning lock hole 15 to define the position of the fork shaft. During a gear shift, the self-locking spring pin 14 is released, controlling the fork shaft to move to the desired gear position. The self-locking spring pin 14 is positioned perpendicular to the fork shaft and includes a spring that provides the force that forces the pin shaft toward the positioning lock hole 15.
[0061] The oil spray problem that may occur in the transmission box under high temperature or high pressure conditions not only affects the normal operation of the machine, but also poses a safety hazard to the surrounding environment and operators. In some embodiments, a vent plug 6 assembly is provided on the box body 5, and the vent plug 6 assembly is connected to the box body 5 via a long tube 61. To address the oil spray problem that may be faced by the transmission box, the present application adds a long tube 61 below the vent plug 6, effectively solving the risk of oil overflow caused by the increase in transmission box temperature, while also avoiding the problem of oil leakage from the vent plug 6 caused by oil splashing from the gear to the upper cover.
[0062] In a second aspect, a harvester is provided, comprising: a brakeable multi-speed transmission box as described in any one of the above embodiments. As a result of having the transmission box as described in any one of the above embodiments, the harvester has the technical effects of the transmission box.
[0063] The above description and the accompanying drawings sufficiently illustrate the embodiments of the present disclosure to enable those skilled in the art to practice them. Other embodiments may include structural and other changes. The embodiments represent only possible variations. Unless expressly required, individual components and functions are optional, and the order of operations may vary. Portions and features of some embodiments may be included in or replace portions and features of other embodiments. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the structures described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the scope thereof. The scope of the present disclosure is limited only by the appended claims.
