[0002] The corn harvester consists of several major components: a header, an elevator, a peeler, an ear box, etc. The engine on the chassis serves as the power output system, and at the same time carries the coordinated control systems and other mechanisms of the several major components, forming a complete corn harvesting machine.

[0003] As the corn ear transport mechanism, the efficiency of the elevator directly impacts the harvesting performance of the entire machine. To ensure effective peeling and prevent excessive stems and leaves in the corn ears, which can lead to mold, the elevators of medium and large corn harvesters are equipped with a debris removal device to further remove stems and leaves that have not been separated on the cutting table and are mixed with the corn ears.

[0004] Currently, the support frame of the elevator on the market is large in size and complex in structure. The dust removal device and the elevator are only supported by the bracket, which has poor stability. Moreover, the elevator and the dust removal fan use two sets of transmission and reversing systems, which are distributed on both sides of the elevator. Not only is the structure complex, but the dust removal fan transmission system is generally located on the side of the cab, close to the driver, which poses a safety hazard.
