Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of combine harvesters or agricultural machinery, and in particular to a vibration-reducing and noise-reducing header conveying trough device for a combine harvester. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of society, the planting industry has also developed rapidly. Combine harvesters are widely used in various types of grain harvesting, which improves the efficiency of crop harvesting and saves manpower. However, a lot of noise will be generated during the application of combine harvesters, which seriously affects the reliability of the whole machine and the working environment of the driver. The header is a key component of the combine harvester harvesting. The conveyor trough is the "throat" connecting the header and threshing device of the longitudinal flow combine harvester. It is an important component for smoothly feeding crops into the threshing drum. It is also a key structure that restricts the threshing and separation ability of the threshing drum. The researchers used the sound intensity method and the separate operation method, and determined through the analysis of the sound intensity cloud map that the contribution of the conveyor trough to the noise around the driver's ears is 26.9%. Therefore, it is of great significance to improve the working environment of the operators and improve work efficiency by completing the vibration reduction and noise reduction of the conveyor trough part through a practical measure.

[0003] At present, there are few inventions in the field of vibration reduction and noise reduction of the conveyor trough device of the combine harvester. Among the existing conveyor trough devices, a Chinese invention patent discloses a conveyor trough of the combine harvester with the functions of forward conveying and reverse grass withdrawal. The power between the power output shaft of the threshing drum of the combine harvester and the power input shaft of the conveyor trough is cut off and connected through a set of tensioning wheel mechanism, which can quickly solve the problem of grass blocking inside the conveyor trough; a Chinese invention patent discloses a grass returning mechanism of the conveyor trough of a full-feed combine harvester, which can bring out the crops blocked in the conveyor trough and realize the normal operation of the combine harvester; the Chinese invention patent provides a damping and vibration reduction plate with damping and vibration reduction characteristics and is not easy to plastically deform.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned combine harvester conveyor trough device only optimized the overall structure of the conveyor trough for the problem of grass blocking, and did not study the vibration and noise problems of the conveyor trough. The optimized structure has aggravated the vibration and noise problems of the conveyor trough due to its high energy consumption and high power. Therefore, the current conveyor trough device still has problems such as severe vibration of the cutter table, loud noise, and easy wear caused by the collision of the conveying angle iron with the bottom plate during operation; and most of the existing damping vibration reduction plates have defects such as the vibration reduction structure is easily invaded by water stains and debris from the stems, resulting in a loose structure and a short service life.

The conveying angle iron 3 is mounted on the chain 7 of the chain transmission system; the conveying angle iron 3 comprises a base layer 301, a damping layer 302 and a constraint layer 303, wherein the base layer 301 is fixed on the chain 7, the damping layer 302 is arranged on the base layer 301, and the damping layer 302 is mounted with the base layer 301 by the constraint layer 303.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the frame 4 includes an outer shell 401, a glass fiber layer 402 and a carbon fiber layer 403; the carbon fiber layer 403 is wrapped with the glass fiber layer 402, and the glass fiber layer 402 is wrapped with the outer shell 401; the outer shell 401 is the outermost layer, and the material is Q235, the glass fiber layer 402 accounts for 20%-30% of the thickness of the frame 4, and is used to make the frame have a sufficiently good damping performance to reduce vibration and noise; the carbon fiber layer 403 accounts for 30%-50% of the thickness of the frame 4, and is used to improve the overall mechanical properties of the frame. Through the outer shell 401, the glass fiber layer 402 and the carbon fiber layer 403, the frame has excellent damping performance to achieve damping vibration and noise reduction, and at the same time, the conveying trough device is light in weight, high in strength, and not easy to wear.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the surface of the damping layer 302 in contact with the constraint layer 303 is provided with a raised irregular texture, and the raised irregular texture is in contact with the constraint layer 303 through the constraint layer 303, so as to reduce the vibration of the base layer 301 during the operation of the chain transmission system. The raised irregular texture is one or a combination of a cylinder, a boss, and a sawtooth. By providing the surface of the damping layer 302 in contact with the constraint layer 303 with a raised irregular texture, gas elastic damping is added between the constraint layer 303 and the damping layer 302, and the anti-seismic effect is more obvious.

[0030] Figure 4This is a specific embodiment of the present invention, wherein the base layer 301 is a right angle iron; a damping layer 302 is provided on the inner side of the right angle iron for damping vibration and reducing noise; a constraint layer 303 is wrapped around the outside of the damping layer 302, and the right angle iron, the damping layer 302 and the constraint layer 303 are fixed by pins 304, so that while achieving the functions of vibration reduction and noise reduction, water stains on stems, grain debris, etc. are prevented from entering the gap between the right angle iron and the damping layer 302, thereby extending the service life of the components; the damping layer 302 includes a vertical section damping layer and a horizontal section damping layer, the vertical section damping layer is installed on one side of the right angle iron perpendicular to the movement direction of the chain 7, and the horizontal section damping layer is installed on the other side of the right angle iron parallel to the movement direction of the chain 7, and the surface of the vertical section damping layer is provided with a serrated texture; the surface of the horizontal section damping layer is provided with a trapezoidal boss texture.

Although the gas elastic damping between the constraint layer 303 and the damping layer 302 disappears in this way, the surface of the constraint layer 303 in contact with the raised irregular texture is provided with a concave irregular texture matching the raised irregular texture. Although the anti-seismic effect is reduced, it can prevent stem water stains, grain debris, etc. from entering the gap between the constraint layer 303 and the damping layer 302, thereby wearing the damping layer 302 under long-term vibration. In order to increase the anti-seismic performance of the damping layer 302, the damping layer 302 is a foamed damping layer with micropores, generally made of rubber. The constraint layer 303 is a light metal, generally an aluminum alloy.
