Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of chains, and in particular to a molding process for corn plowing chain accessories. Background Art

[0002] Agricultural modernization refers to establishing agriculture on a modern scientific foundation, equipping it with modern science and technology and modern industry, and managing it with modern economic science. The goal is to create a high-yield, high-quality, low-consumption agricultural production system, and an agro-ecological system that rationally utilizes resources, protects the environment, and achieves high conversion efficiency. Modernizing production equipment is a crucial component of agricultural modernization, and agricultural harvesting equipment is one of the most common agricultural production equipment.

[0003] Corn harvesters are the primary equipment for harvesting corn, boasting a high degree of automation and efficient harvesting. The ear-breaking mechanism is a core component of a corn harvester, used to directional move and pluck corn plants. This mechanism typically includes a reed chain, which is used to directional move and gather the corn plants. Chinese invention patent application publication number CN 105684639A discloses a roller-type corn ear-breaking mechanism with a floating reed disc and chain combination, which describes the workings of the reed chain.

[0004] A corn plowing chain usually includes chain links and plowing teeth, wherein the plowing teeth include a groove plate and two side plates. The two side plates are arranged opposite to each other and are integrally formed with the groove plate. The two side plates respectively include a connecting portion, which is used to connect to the chain links. The plowing teeth are usually processed by stamping, that is, the blank is cut by punching, and the overall shape of the blank is used as a positioning reference, and the blank is formed by stamping. However, the overall precision requirements for punching are relatively low. With the overall shape as the positioning reference, the processing error during stamping is large. In production practice, the problem of difficulty in aligning the connecting parts of the two side plates is often encountered, which ultimately makes it difficult to assemble the plowing teeth and the chain links. After assembly, there will also be large internal stress, which affects the use effect. Summary of the Invention
