[0002] When the corn harvester is harvesting, the corn harvester header is used for the ear picking process during the corn harvesting process. The reed chain needs to run at high speed during operation. During the ear picking process, the reed chain is constantly impacted by corn stalks and ears and is worn by other parts. Therefore, the reed chain needs to be regularly maintained. The reed chains on the left and right sides need to be flipped and swapped for use regularly. When the reed chain is damaged or severely worn, it needs to be replaced. To replace the reed chain, the reed chain needs to be removed from the header. However, the existing chain disassembly tool needs to be used to disassemble the reed chain, and the chain needs to be disconnected and reinstalled. This disassembly method is more troublesome.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the handle is arranged between the fixed support and the movable frame, one side of the handle is hinged to the end of the fixed support through a hinge bolt pair, and the other side of the handle is hinged to the movable frame through a hinge bolt pair.

[0030] One end of the handle is a hand-holding part, and the other end is provided with two groups of through holes, and hinge bolt pairs are arranged at the two groups of through holes to be hinged with the fixed support and the movable frame.

[0031] Specifically, the first through hole at the end of the handle 1 is hinged to the movable frame 4 near the end through a hinge bolt pair, and the second through hole at the end of the handle 1 is hinged to the end of the fixed support through a hinge bolt pair. The second through hole is located on the side of the first through hole away from the movable frame. The corn harvesting platform reel chain quick disassembly and replacement device is in a natural state. Figure 1 shown.

[0032] A limiting plate is vertically arranged at one end of the bottom of the fixed support away from the hinged position, and the fixing part is arranged inside the limiting plate, and the fixing part is a pin shaft 21 vertically arranged with the limiting plate.

[0033] A saddle is also provided at the bottom of the fixed support, which is used to cooperate with both sides of the cylinder barrel, thereby limiting the position of the disassembly device and preventing the device from detaching during chain disassembly, thereby ensuring safety.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the movable frame is a rod-shaped structure, and the clamping part is set as a movable end hook, and the clamping part is arranged at the end of the movable frame away from the handle 1. The movable end hook is used to cooperate with the positioning hole at the front end of the piston rod.

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, a fixing seat 400 is provided on the corn cutting table, a gas spring is fixedly installed at one end of the fixing seat 400, the cylinder of the gas spring is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 400, the piston rod 500 of the gas spring extends in a direction away from the cylinder, and the end support frame of the piston rod 500 supports a tensioning wheel 200, a driving wheel 100 is provided on the side of the fixing seat away from the tensioning wheel 200, a reed chain is installed on the driving wheel 100 and the tensioning wheel 200, the piston rod pushes the tensioning wheel to achieve tensioning of the reed chain 300, and the driving wheel 100 drives the reed chain 300 to move. A fixing hole is provided at one end of the fixing seat away from the gas spring for cooperating with the pin shaft.

[0036] The movable frame is provided with a safety hook at one end close to the clamping part for limiting the rebound of the handle. The safety hook is arranged on the side of the movable frame away from the handle. The main body of the safety hook is L-shaped and the safety hook is fixedly connected to the movable frame.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the pin 21 on the fixed support 2 is positioned and matched with the fixing hole on the fixed seat 400, and the movable end hook 42 on the movable frame 4 is hooked into the positioning hole at the end of the piston rod 500. Figure 2 As shown, the hand-held part of the handle 1 is then moved clockwise, and the clamping part compresses the piston rod by pulling the handle to shorten the distance between the driving wheel and the tensioning wheel on the corn cutting table. The reed chain can then be removed and replaced with a new one.

[0038] The setting of the safety hook 41 can make the handle 1 be hooked by the safety hook 41, such as Figure 3 As shown, the gas spring is kept in a shortened state so that it will not rebound, which makes it convenient for workers to install and remove the chain with both hands. The maintenance efficiency of the corn harvesting header is improved, thereby improving the overall harvesting efficiency of the corn harvester, while reducing the labor intensity of the agricultural machine operator or maintenance personnel in operating and maintaining the harvester during the harvesting operation, and enhancing the overall performance of the harvester.

[0039] It can be understood that there is a certain deflection margin at the hinge point between the handle 1, the fixed support 2 and the movable frame 4 in this embodiment, so that after the handle 1 is pulled, the handle can go around to the inside of the safety hook through the deflection margin and cooperate with the safety hook 41.

[0040] Embodiment 2

[0041] In a typical embodiment of the present invention, reference is made to Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a method for quickly disassembling a corn harvesting platform reel chain, using the corn harvesting platform reel chain quickly disassembling device of embodiment 1, comprises the following steps:

Figure 2 Then, the gripping part of the handle 1 is moved clockwise, and the gas spring is compressed by the fixing part and the clamping part, so that the piston rod is contracted, thereby achieving the distance between the driving wheel and the tensioning wheel to be close, and then the handle is hooked and fixed by the safety hook 41 to prevent the handle from being reset, so as to maintain the contracted state of the gas spring, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, because the distance between the driving wheel and the tension wheel is close, the reed chain can be quickly disassembled and installed with both hands. After installation, the handle 1 is separated from the safety hook 41, and the handle 1 is reset and the device is removed.
