[0049] Hereinafter, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive.

[0050] Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of the excavating and conveying device 1 for a harvester according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 The present application proposes an excavating and conveying device 1 for a harvester, which can collect and convey crops during the harvesting of root crops. The excavating and conveying device 1 for a harvester includes: a primary conveying mechanism 10, a secondary conveying mechanism 20 and a gathering mechanism 30.

[0051] Among them, the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester mixes soil and various foreign materials when conveying crops.

[0052] Figure 2 Show Figure 1 The enlarged schematic diagram of A in the middle is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The primary conveying mechanism 10 is used to convey crops along a first direction X, and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is used to receive the crops conveyed by the primary conveying mechanism 10. The secondary conveying mechanism 20 is arranged continuously with the primary conveying mechanism 10 along the first direction X, so that the crops on the primary conveying mechanism 10 can be conveyed to the secondary conveying mechanism 20 along the first direction X. The input end of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is detachably connected to the output end of the primary conveying mechanism 10, so that the primary conveying mechanism 10 can be detached from the secondary conveying mechanism 20.

[0053] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The gathering mechanism 30 is disposed on the primary conveying mechanism 10 and includes a conveying channel 31. The conveying channel 31 is used to gather the crops conveyed by the primary conveying mechanism 10. As the primary conveying mechanism 10 moves toward the secondary conveying mechanism 20, the dimension of the conveying channel 31 in the second direction Y gradually decreases, causing the dimensions of the multiple crops conveyed in the conveying channel 31 to gradually decrease in the second direction Y. The dimension of the multiple crops in the second direction Y refers to the distance between the two crops closest to each other within the conveying channel 31.

[0054] Exemplarily, multiple crops enter the conveying channel 31 from the input end of the gathering mechanism 30, and the size of the multiple crops in the second direction Y is D cm. Multiple crops exit the conveying channel 31 from the output end of the gathering mechanism 30, and the size of the multiple crops in the second direction Y is S cm, and D cm is greater than S cm.

[0055] Figure 3 A schematic diagram showing the structure of the primary conveying mechanism and the ground wheel assembly according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. In the embodiment of the present application, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The direction in which the gathering mechanism 30 faces the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is the first direction X, enabling the conveying channel 31 to convey the crops along the first direction X and gather the crops. Furthermore, the dimension of the output end of the conveying channel 31 in the second direction Y is less than or equal to the dimension of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 in the second direction Y, ensuring that all crops gathered by the conveying channel 31 fall onto the secondary conveying mechanism 20.

[0056] The first direction X is the length direction of the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester, and the second direction Y is the width direction of the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester. The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect. The operating width of the primary conveying mechanism 10 in the second direction Y is greater than the operating width of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 in the second direction Y. The primary conveying mechanism 10 needs to meet the ridge spacing or row spacing, while the secondary conveying mechanism 20 only needs to meet the needs of crop transportation. In some embodiments, when the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is multi-stage, the operating width of each stage of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 in the second direction Y can be the same or different.

[0057] According to the digging and conveying device 1 for a harvester according to an embodiment of the present application, the digging and conveying device 1 for a harvester according to the present application will collect crops in the farmland during the harvesting operation. After collecting the crops, the digging and conveying device 1 for the harvester uses a primary conveying mechanism 10 to convey multiple crops. In order to avoid losses caused by missed harvests, the size of the primary conveying mechanism 10 in the related art in the second direction Y is adapted to the ridge spacing or row spacing. However, due to differences in the ridge spacing, row spacing of crops of different growers or the ridge spacing and row spacing in different places, the harvester in the related art cannot adapt to multiple different ridge spacing or row spacing with one device. For example, the ridge spacing of some types of root crops is 0.9 meters, and the ridge spacing of some types of root crops is 1.2 meters.

[0058] Based on this, the present application sets the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 in a detachable connection form, so that when encountering ridge spacings of different sizes, it is only necessary to dismantle the original primary conveying mechanism 10 and replace it with a primary conveying mechanism 10 that is adapted to the ridge spacing, without replacing the secondary conveying mechanism 20. On the one hand, the present application can completely collect the crops in the farmland by adapting the size of the primary conveying mechanism 10 in the second direction Y to the ridge spacing. On the other hand, it can also realize the harvesting operation of plots with different ridge spacings by replacing the primary conveying mechanism 10 through the detachable manner of the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20, so that only the primary conveying mechanism 10 with different operating widths is needed to realize the harvesting operation of root crops at different ridge spacings. Compared with the previous need to equip a variety of harvesters of different sizes, this setting method of the present application reduces the harvesting cost of crops for farmers or contractors. Secondly, since the size of the secondary conveying mechanism 20 of the present application in the second direction Y is smaller than the size of the primary conveying mechanism 10 in the second direction Y, and the crops of the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester are conveyed along the first direction X, that is, from the primary conveying mechanism 10 with a larger width to the secondary conveying mechanism 20 with a smaller width, the crops are easily leaked out of the gap between the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 in the second direction Y during the conveying process, causing the crops to fall from the primary conveying mechanism 10 to the farmland, thereby causing crop losses. Therefore, the present application sets a gathering mechanism 30 on the primary conveying mechanism 10, and the gathering mechanism 30 has a conveying channel 31. The crops conveyed on the primary conveying mechanism 10 fall into the secondary conveying mechanism 20 after being gathered by the conveying channel 31, thereby preventing the crops from leaking out of the gap between the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 in the second direction Y.

[0059] In the examples of this application, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The primary conveying mechanism 10 is arranged at the front end of the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester in the traveling direction, and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is arranged on the traveling drive part (frame). The secondary conveying mechanism 20 is driven to travel by the traveling drive part, and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 drives the primary conveying mechanism 10 to travel. When replacing the primary conveying mechanism 10, it is only necessary to remove the primary conveying mechanism 10 from the secondary conveying mechanism 20, and there is no need to replace the traveling drive part, thereby reducing the cost of farmers or contractors harvesting crops at different ridge spacing or row spacing.

[0060] Figure 4 Show Figure 3 The enlarged schematic diagram of B in the middle, Figure 5 A schematic diagram showing the structure of the secondary conveying mechanism according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. In some embodiments, see Figure 1-Figure 5The primary conveying mechanism 10 includes a first bracket 11, a first conveying system 12 and a first connecting seat 13. The secondary conveying mechanism 20 includes a second bracket 21, a second conveying system 22 and a second connecting seat 23. The first conveying system 12 is arranged on the first bracket 11, and the first connecting seat 13 is arranged at one end of the first bracket 11 facing the secondary conveying mechanism 20. The second conveying system 22 is arranged on the second bracket 21, and the second connecting seat 23 is arranged at one end of the second bracket 21 facing the primary conveying mechanism 10. The first connecting seat 13 and the second connecting seat 23 are detachably connected. Through the detachable connection of the first connecting seat 13 and the second connecting seat 23, the detachable connection between the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 is realized.

[0061] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The present application also includes a connecting member 60. A first connecting hole is provided on the first connecting seat 13, and a second connecting hole is provided on the second connecting seat 23. The connecting member 60 is passed through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole, thereby realizing a detachable connection between the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20.

[0062] Exemplarily, the connector 60 can include a bolt and a nut 58. The bolt passes through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole and is threadedly connected to the nut 58, thereby connecting the first connecting seat 13 and the second connecting seat 23, thereby realizing the connection between the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20. When the primary conveying mechanism 10 needs to be replaced, it is only necessary to remove the nut 58 from the bolt to realize the separation of the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20. It is understandable that in other embodiments, the present application can also realize the detachable connection of the first connecting seat 13 and the second connecting seat 23 through other implementation methods, such as: snap fasteners, limiting structures or mortise and tenon joints, etc. The embodiments of the present application do not specifically limit the implementation method of the connector 60.

[0063] Figure 7 A schematic structural diagram of a primary conveying mechanism and a ground wheel assembly according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 8 A schematic diagram showing the structure of the primary conveying mechanism and the ground wheel assembly according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. In some embodiments, see Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 7 as well as Figure 8The gathering mechanism 30 includes a first baffle 32 and a second baffle 33, which are spaced apart along the second direction Y on the primary conveying mechanism 10. A conveying channel 31 is defined between the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33. In the first direction X, the conveying channel 31 gradually decreases in size in the second direction Y. During the conveying of crops by the first conveyor system 12, the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33 guide the crops, causing them to become smaller in size in the second direction Y after being guided by the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33, and then enter the second conveyor system 22.

[0064] It is understandable that in other embodiments, the gathering mechanism 30 can also achieve the guiding effect on crops by other means, such as: a stop rod or a stop cloth. Two stop rods or stop cloths are respectively provided on the first-level conveying mechanism 10, which can also form a conveying channel 31 for conveying crops.

[0065] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a portion of the first baffle 32 and a portion of the second baffle 33 of the present application extend above the second conveying system 22 respectively, so that the crops will also be guided by the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33 in the process of falling from the output end of the first conveying system 12 to the input end of the second conveying system 22. Such a setting can further gather the crops under the influence of the soil layer, avoiding the crops from colliding and cutting with the lower edge of subsequent components (such as the aggregate plate) at the output end of the secondary conveying mechanism 20, thereby protecting the crops.

[0066] Figure 10 A schematic diagram showing the structure of a primary conveying mechanism according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. In some embodiments, see Figure 1 、 Figure 4 as well as Figure 10 The first conveying system 12 includes a plurality of conveying rollers 121, which are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. Specifically, the conveying rollers 121 extend along the second direction Y. Adjacent conveying rollers 121 have a first gap 1211 in the first direction X. The size of the first gap 1211 in the first direction X is smaller than the size of the crops, thereby preventing the crops from falling into the ditch from the first gap 1211. The plurality of conveying rollers 121 rotate in the same direction so that the crops can be conveyed along the first direction X under the action of the plurality of conveying rollers 121. The present application uses the conveying rollers 121 to convey crops, so that the crops are continuously switched between the first gap 1211 and the roller surface of the conveying rollers 121 during the conveying process, so that the crops are continuously shaken during the conveying process, thereby shaking off the soil attached to the crops.

[0067] In some other embodiments, the first conveying system 12 includes a conveyor belt or a chain rake.

[0068] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 、 Figure 4 as well as Figure 10 A first gap 1211 is defined between two adjacent conveying rollers 121. When the present application only sets the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33 above the multiple conveying rollers 121, since the first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33 cannot completely close the first gap 1211, when the crops are conveyed along the first direction X under the action of the multiple conveying rollers 121, some smaller crops will leak out of the conveying channel 31 from the first gap 1211. In order to solve the above problem, the bottom of the first baffle 32 is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 321 adapted to the first gap 1211. The first protrusions 321 are embedded in the first gap 1211, and the two adjacent first protrusions 321 and the first baffle 32 are enclosed to form a first groove adapted to the conveying roller 121. The bottom of the second baffle 33 is provided with multiple second protrusions 331 adapted to the first gap 1211, and the second protrusions 331 are embedded in the first gap 1211. The two adjacent second protrusions 331 and the second baffle 33 are enclosed to form a second groove adapted to the conveying roller 121. The present application achieves the blocking of the first gap 1211 on both sides of the conveying channel 31 by arranging the first protrusion 321 to be embedded in the first gap 1211 and the second protrusion 331 to be embedded in the first gap 1211, so that the crops will not leak out of the first gap 1211 when being conveyed along the first direction X under the action of multiple conveying rollers 121.

[0069] Figure 9 Show Figure 8 In some embodiments, see Figure 1 、 Figure 8 as well as Figure 9 , and also includes an excavating mechanism 14, which is connected to the first bracket 11 and is used to dig crops in the land and transport them to the primary transport mechanism 10, and then transport them to the secondary transport mechanism 20 through the primary transport mechanism 10.

[0070] In the embodiment of the present application, the size of the digging mechanism 14 in the second direction Y is adapted to the size of the first conveying system 12 in the second direction Y, so that the crops dug by the digging mechanism 14 can fall completely onto the first conveying system 12 .

[0071] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6The excavation mechanism 14 includes a first driving mechanism 147, a base 142, an eccentric bearing 143, a connecting rod 144 and a shovel blade 145. The shovel blade 145 is arranged on the base 142. The base 142 is hinged to the first bracket 11 through a hinge block 141. The inner ring of the eccentric bearing 143 is rotatably arranged on the first bracket 11 through a first rotating shaft 146. The first driving mechanism 147 is connected to the first rotating shaft 146 in a transmission manner. One end of the connecting rod 144 is connected to the outer ring of the eccentric bearing 143. The connecting rod The other end of 144 is rotatably connected to the base body 142 through a second rotating shaft, and the first rotating shaft 146 is driven to rotate through the first driving mechanism 147, thereby driving the outer ring of the eccentric bearing 143 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 146 and swing back and forth along the first direction X, thereby driving the connecting rod 144 to swing back and forth along the first direction X, and causing the shovel 145 on the base body 142 to swing back and forth along the first direction X, thereby improving the efficiency of the shovel 145 of this application in cutting farmland soil and reducing excavation resistance.

[0072] Exemplarily, the first driving mechanism 147 is a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is in transmission connection with the first rotating shaft 146, so that the motor can drive the first rotating shaft 146 to rotate. It is understandable that the first driving mechanism 147 can also be a gear transmission or other method, which is not limited here.

[0073] In some embodiments, see Figure 7-Figure 9 The present application also includes a ground wheel assembly 40, which supports the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester. The ground wheel assembly 40 is connected to the first bracket 11. The ground wheel assembly 40 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 are arranged at both ends of the primary conveying mechanism 10 along the first direction X, that is, in the driving direction of the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester, the ground wheel assembly 40, the excavating mechanism 14, the primary conveying mechanism 10 and the secondary conveying mechanism 20 are arranged in sequence. Compared with the situation in which the ground wheels are respectively arranged on both sides of the excavating and conveying device 1 for the harvester in the related art, the present application can prevent the ground wheels from crushing the crops on both sides of the ditch, thereby protecting the crops on both sides of the ditch.

[0074] In some embodiments, the ground wheel assembly 40 includes at least one ground wheel mechanism 41, which includes a connecting frame 411, a driving wheel 412, a sliding rod 413, a guide tube 414 and a hydraulic cylinder 415. The connecting frame 411 is connected to the first bracket 11, the guide tube 414 is connected to the connecting frame 411, at least part of the sliding rod 413 is slid in the guide tube 414, the driving wheel 412 is arranged at the bottom of the sliding rod 413, the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 415 is connected to the guide tube 414, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 415 is connected to the sliding rod 413. The present application can adjust the height of the first bracket 11 from the ground by adjusting the length of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 415 extending out of the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 415. With such a configuration, the present application can adjust the height of the shovel 145 from the ground according to the height of the ground, so as to adapt to farmland under different conditions.

[0075] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second conveying system 22 includes a third driving mechanism, a first chain 226, a second chain 225 and a plurality of chain rake rods 224. The third driving mechanism is transmission-connected to the first chain 226. One end of the chain rake rod 224 is connected to the first chain 226, and the other end of the chain rake rod 224 is connected to the second chain 225. The first chain 226 is driven to rotate by the third driving mechanism, thereby driving the plurality of chain rake rods 224 to rotate along the first direction X, so that the plurality of chain rake rods 224 can convey crops along the first direction X.

[0076] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 and Figure 11 The input end of the second conveying system 22 is lower than the output end of the second conveying system 22, so that the output end of the second conveying system 22 can convey the crops to the vehicle body. With this arrangement, there will be a situation where the crops flow from the output end of the second conveying system 22 to the input end of the second conveying system 22 under the action of gravity when the crops are conveyed on the second conveying system 22. In order to solve the above problem, the second conveying system 22 of the present application also includes a rubber sleeve 223, which is sleeved on the chain rake rod 224, and the rubber sleeve 223 is formed on the chain rake rod 224 by vulcanization. The rubber sleeve 223 includes a plurality of rubber protrusions 221, and the extension direction of the rubber protrusion 221 intersects with the extension direction of the chain rake rod 224. The setting of the rubber protrusion 221 can play a role in limiting the crops, thereby preventing the crops from flowing from the output end of the second conveying system 22 to the input end of the second conveying system 22 under the action of gravity when the crops are conveyed on multiple chain rake rods 224.

[0077] For example, the rubber protrusion 221 protrudes outward away from the chain rake bar 224 so that the rubber protrusion 221 can abut against crops.

[0078] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The present application also includes a soil breaking mechanism 50, which is arranged on the second bracket 21 and is used to break up the soil blocks transported together with the crops.

[0079] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The soil-breaking mechanism 50 includes a fixed base 51, an elastic member 52, a pressure roller 53, a second drive mechanism 55, and a mounting plate 54. One end of the mounting plate 54 is rotatably mounted on the second bracket 21 via a third rotating shaft 56. The pressure roller 53 is rotatably mounted on the other end of the mounting plate 54, allowing the pressure roller 53 to swing about the first end of the mounting plate 54. The second drive mechanism 55 is in driving connection with the pressure roller 53. A second gap is defined between the chain rake rod 224 corresponding to the pressure roller 53 and the pressure roller 53, allowing crops to pass through. When crops pass through the second gap, soil clods transported along with the crops are crushed, thereby separating the crops from the soil clods. The fixed base 51 is mounted on the second bracket 21. One end of the elastic member 52 abuts the fixed base 51, while the other end abuts the mounting plate 54. The pressure roller 53 is pressed against the chain rake rod 224 by the restoring force of the elastic member 52. The provision of the elastic member 52 prevents the pressure roller 53 from bouncing excessively during operation. When the soil block is larger than the size of the second gap, the soil block passes through the second gap and applies a thrust back to the soil block to the soil pressing roller 53, and the soil pressing roller 53 also applies a thrust toward the chain rake rod 224 to the soil block. Under the thrust of the soil pressing roller 53, the soil block is crushed, thereby achieving the effect of separating crops from the soil block.

[0080] In some embodiments, the soil-breaking mechanism 50 also includes a screw 57 and a nut 58. The nut 58 is arranged on the fixed seat 51. The screw 57 is threadedly connected to the nut 58. The screw 57 is in contact with the mounting plate 54. The extension direction of the screw 57 is perpendicular to the chain rake rod 224. The present application adjusts the relative position of the screw 57 and the nut 58, thereby adjusting the size of the second gap between the chain rake rod 224 and the soil pressing roller 53, thereby adapting to crops of different sizes.

[0081] Illustratively, the second drive mechanism 55 can be a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is in transmission connection with the compacting roller 53. In other embodiments, the third drive mechanism and the second drive mechanism 55 can share a transmission system, wherein a first gear is provided on the first chain 226 to drive the first chain 226 to rotate, and a second gear is provided on the compacting roller 53 to drive the rotation. The first gear and the second gear are driven to rotate via a transmission chain, and the transmission chain is elastically tightened to adapt to the floating of the compacting roller 53 under the action of the spring.

[0082] In some embodiments, the rotation direction of the compacting roller 53 is opposite to that of the second conveying system 22 , so that the compacting roller 53 and the chain rake bar 224 can apply a pushing force to the crops in the same direction.
