Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of harvesters, and in particular to a double-cutting-table crop harvester. Background Art

[0002] During the harvesting process of crops such as corn, general harvesting equipment collects corn cobs or corn stalks separately. However, if corn is used as feed for cattle and sheep, general harvesting machinery harvests corn cobs and corn stalks together, which will cause certain waste; and the harvesters in the prior art can only harvest plots of a fixed width, which results in a long strip of crops to be harvested after the entire plot is harvested. This long strip of crops only needs to be harvested once more by the harvester. There is often an irrigation canal or main canal on one side of this long strip of crops. Since the harvester is heavy, driving directly over it will damage the irrigation canal or main canal, and in severe cases, it will cause it to be blocked, affecting later irrigation.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an improvement to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a double-cutting-table crop harvester that can harvest corn ears and corn stalks simultaneously without mixing the ears and stalks and without damaging irrigation channels.

[0043] In this embodiment, a guide wheel groove is provided in the middle of the bottom of the sliding limit groove, and a plurality of evenly distributed guide wheels 504 are provided in the middle of the sliding limit pin 503, and the guide wheels 504 are slidably connected in the guide wheel groove. The arrangement of the guide wheels 504 and the guide wheel groove makes the lateral movement of the lateral moving frame 406 smoother.

[0044] Embodiment 3:

[0045] like Figure 8 As shown in FIG. 10, the difference from the embodiment 1 is that the front and rear sides of the upper header frame are respectively provided with a separating box and a driving gear box;

[0046] The driving gear box is provided with a driving sprocket, and the front and rear sides of the ear separation box are respectively provided with a driven sprocket and a transmission sprocket, and the driving sprocket, the driven sprocket and the transmission sprocket are connected by an ear-moving chain, and the ear-moving chain is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed guide blades;

A driving inner shaft 610 and a driven outer shaft sleeved with the driving inner shaft 610 are provided, and electromagnetic push rods and double-sided bevel gears 606 are provided at both ends of the driving inner shaft 610, and a driving pulley 607 is provided on the driven outer shaft.

Under the action of the reversing gear, the reverse bevel gear 604 rotates in the opposite direction to the forward bevel gear 603.

[0051] When the electromagnetic push rod moves downward, the double-sided bevel gear 606 meshes with the forward bevel gear 603, and the active inner shaft 610 drives the driven outer shaft to rotate, thereby driving the active pulley 607 and the driven pulley 608 to rotate, thereby driving the steering gear 609 to rotate, and finally realizing the adjustment of the angle of the ear box 3; similarly, when the electromagnetic push rod moves upward, the double-sided bevel gear 606 meshes with the reverse bevel gear 604, and finally realizing the angle adjustment trend opposite to that when the forward bevel gear 603 is meshed.
