Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery, and in particular to a gap-adjustable cutting platform vibration ear-picking device which is adaptive to straw diameter. Background Art

[0002] The traditional roller ear picking device mainly removes corn ears by directly acting on the ear picking roller, and separates the ear from the stem through the squeezing force. The grains are severely damaged and the loss of grains is large during the ear picking process.

[0003] The horizontal roller ear picking device is a widely used form of roller ear picking device. It consists of a pair of relatively rotating horizontal rollers, a feeding device, and a conveying device. The angle between the ear picking roller and the horizontal plane is 25~35°. When picking ears, the corn plants pass through the reel and the feeding device into the gap between the ear picking rollers. The ear picking rollers grab the corn stalks and pull them backward. The ears are located in the gap between the ears and are picked up by the squeezing and stretching forces. The horizontal roller corn ear picking technology has a greater squeezing effect on the corn stalks, which are easy to break. At the same time, there is a problem of severe damage to the corn ears.

[0004] my country has a vast territory. In different corn-growing areas, the thickness of crop straw is inconsistent due to different corn varieties and moisture content during harvest. However, the gap between the ear picking rollers is generally fixed, and the ear picking gap cannot be adaptively adjusted in real time, resulting in problems such as straw breakage or blockage during the ear picking process, affecting the reliability of the combine harvester.

[0005] The vertical roller corn ear-picking header changes the spatial position of the ear-picking rollers from a horizontal position to an upright position. The header has a simple overall structure and is light in weight. Therefore, the use of the vertical vibration ear-picking technology and device for corn harvester headers that is adaptively adjusted according to the gap between corn stalks can solve problems such as mechanical failures caused by stalk breakage and blockage, and effectively solves a series of problems such as corn stalk breakage, severe ear damage, and large grain loss. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem that the corn stalks are easily broken and blocked due to the inability of the picking gap to adapt to the different diameters of all corn stalks during corn picking. A cutting table vibration picking technology and device with an adjustable gap and adaptive to different corn stalk diameters is developed.

[0007] The gap-adjustable cutting-table vibration ear-picking device that is adaptive to the diameter of the straw is composed of an octagonal vibration ear-picking roller, a stem-pulling roller, a power transmission system, a reciprocating cutter, a motor, and a frame; the octagonal vibration ear-picking roller includes an outer ear-picking ridge, an inner ear-picking star roller, and a spring gap adjustment device; the spring gap adjustment device includes a spring head, a spring, a spring sleeve, and a spring base.

[0008] The inner ear-picking star roller comprises an I-shaped through groove, a spring-fixed circular groove, and an inner ear-picking star roller clamping tooth; the outer ear-picking convex ridge comprises a convex ridge top ridge, a convex ridge inclined surface, a convex ridge side wing, an outer ear-picking clamping tooth, and a spring-fixed hexagonal groove.

[0009] The spring gap adjusting device includes a spring head, a spring, a spring sleeve, and a spring base. The outer ear picking teeth of the outer ear picking ridge and the inner ear picking star roller teeth of the inner ear picking star roller are clamped with each other. The spring head of the spring gap adjusting device is fixed in the spring fixing hexagonal groove of the outer ear picking ridge, and the spring base of the spring gap adjusting device is connected to the spring fixing circular groove of the inner ear picking star roller through threads.

[0010] There are two pairs of eight-sided vibration ear-picking rollers, including two inner ear-picking star rollers, 16 outer ear-picking ridges, and 80 spring gap adjustment devices.

[0011] The octagonal vibration ear picking rollers are installed in pairs and on the same rotating shaft as the stem pulling roller. The octagonal vibration ear picking rollers are installed so that the convex ridge top edge of one octagonal vibration ear picking roller faces the inner ear picking star roller of the other octagonal vibration ear picking roller.

[0012] A driving gear and a driven gear are respectively installed under the stem pulling roller, and the octagonal vibration ear picking roller realizes transmission through gear meshing.

[0013] The spring gap adjustment device, when the top edge of the outer ear picking ridge is acted upon by force, the spring inside the outer ear picking ridge undergoes radial displacement, and the spring head moves radially along the spring sleeve, driving the outer ear picking ridge to move along the I-shaped through groove. Due to the different diameters of corn stalks, the pressure on the top edge of the ridge is different, thereby achieving adjustment of the spring at different distances to prevent mechanical failure caused by stalk blockage.

[0014] Under the action of the straw-pulling chain, the root of the corn stalk first enters the stem-pulling roller part of the ear-picking device, and the stem-pulling stick applies pulling force to the stalk and guides the corn stalk to move obliquely downward as the two stem-pulling rollers rotate. At this time, the adaptive gap-adjustable octagonal vibration ear-picking roller coaxial with the stem-pulling roller has a spacing of 45~55mm between the two rollers, and continuously outputs exciting force. Under the action of the spring gap adjustment device, the adaptive gap can be adjusted according to the change of corn diameter, thereby ensuring the adaptive adjustment of the gap of the corn vibration ear-picking roller.

[0015] During the ear picking process, the convex ridge top edge of one octagonal vibration ear picking roller is always kept in the middle position of the surface of the inner ear picking star roller of the other octagonal vibration ear picking roller. The two rollers rotate to generate a simple harmonic exciting force when clamping the corn stalks. As the pressure on the convex ridge top edge is different, the convex ridge top edge moves different distances along the radial direction of the spring sleeve, thereby realizing adaptive gap adjustment.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are concentrated in the following aspects:

[0017] 1. The present invention provides a gap-adjustable cutting-table vibration ear picking device which is adaptive to the diameter of corn stalks. The convex top edge of the octagonal vibration ear picking roller cooperates with the inner ear picking star roller of the octagonal vibration ear picking roller to clamp corn stalks and vibrate the corn stalks to generate a vibration force, thereby realizing a contact-free ear picking method for corn ears and ear picking rollers, and solving the problem of serious damage and high grain loss caused by the contact between the traditional ear picking roller and the corn ears.

[0018] 2. The present invention provides a cutting table vibration ear picking device with an adjustable gap that is adaptive to the diameter of the straw. The device can adaptively adjust the ear picking gap according to the differences in straw diameters of different moisture contents and different corn varieties, thereby avoiding malfunctions such as straw breakage and blockage of the cutting table during the corn ear picking process.
