[0002] The clutch of a direct-coupled trencher is a key component in the power transmission system of a direct-coupled trencher, designed to ensure reliable transmission and precise control of power while adapting to the high-intensity operation requirements of the trencher under complex working conditions.

[0003] In the initial stage of clutch separation of a direct-coupled trencher, the static friction (maximum resistance) between the friction plate and the flywheel needs to be overcome. The driver needs to use great pedaling force to start the separation, which can easily lead to leg fatigue. Especially in farmland operations with frequent starts and stops, the operating efficiency is greatly reduced. In the process of continuous and strong pedaling, excessive pedaling may occur due to inertia or misoperation, causing the mechanical parts of the separation fork to be subjected to instantaneous impact loads, causing deformation or breakage, and causing a rigid collision between the separation bearing and the pressure plate, accelerating wear or even burning, affecting the high stability of the clutch of the direct-coupled trencher.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 4 andFigure 5 , this embodiment further describes Embodiment 1. The sliding assembly in the figure includes multiple groups of sliding holes 401 formed on the rack 302. A sliding rod 402 is slidably connected to the sliding holes 401. The sliding rod 402 is fixed to the mounting box 201. A spring 403 is sleeved outside the sliding rod 402.

Through the spring 403, it is convenient to reset the rack 302 after the movement.

[0029] Preferably, the connecting assembly includes a mounting groove 701 formed on one side of the connecting rod 501. Multiple guide rods 702 are slidably connected to the sliding seat 603. The guide rods 702 are fixed to the mounting groove 701; It should be noted here that: through the mounting groove 701 and the guide rods 702, the slidable connection of the sliding seat 603 on one side of the connecting rod 501 is assisted.

[0030] In this solution: a high-stability clutch for a direct-connected ditcher includes the following steps: When the direct-connected ditcher clutch is in use, the operation is realized by driving the movement of the release bearing 103. When the clutch is in the engaged state, there is a certain gap between the release bearing 103 and the release fingers of the clutch pressure plate. Under the action of elastic force, the pressure plate tightly presses the friction plate against the flywheel. At this time, the power of the engine is transmitted from the flywheel to the clutch pressure plate, and then through the friction plate to the working components of the gearbox 101, enabling the ditcher to operate normally. When the power needs to be cut off, the driver steps on the pedal. Through the transmission of the stepping transmission component, the driving component and the pushing component, the release bearing 103 is pushed to move. The release bearing 103 pushes the release fingers of the pressure plate, causing the pressure plate to move backward against the elastic force, so that the pressure plate is separated from the friction plate, cutting off the power transmission between the engine and the working components, and the ditcher stops operating; During the process of driving the pedal by stepping on it, through the connection of the connecting rod 501 and the supporting effects of the lifting platform 601, the support plate 602 and the sliding seat 603, the connecting rod 501 rotates inside the mounting box 201. During the rotation of the connecting rod 501, through the connection of the connecting plate 503 on the sliding groove 502, the rack 302 is pushed to move under force. During the movement of the rack 302, through the meshing transmission between the rack 302 and the gear 301, the gear 301 and the mounting shaft 202 on the gear 301 rotate. During the rotation of the mounting shaft 202, the release fork 104 is driven to move. Through the movement of the release fork 104, the release bearing 103 is pushed to complete the driving effect on the release bearing 103; During the process of driving the release bearing 103 by stepping on it, in the axial direction of the connecting rod 501, the distance from the connection point of the connecting plate 503 and the rack 302 to the connection point of the sliding seat 603 and the support plate 602 is L1, and the distance from the connection point of the sliding seat 603 and the support plate 602 to the end of the connecting rod 501 is L2 (see Figure 9 and Figure 10 ). At the initial stage of stepping on, the length of L1 is less than L2 (see Figure 9 ). At this time, it is a labor-saving support lever, making it more labor-saving in the initial stage of stepping on the clutch, reducing the fatigue on the legs. Especially in the farm work with frequent starts and stops, the operation efficiency is guaranteed. As the stepping continues, during the rotation of the mounting shaft 202, through the connection and transmission of the chain 1002 between the two groups of sprockets, the drive shaft 1001 and the worm 903 are driven to rotate. During the rotation of the worm 903, through the meshing transmission between the worm 903 and the worm gear 902, the worm gear 902 and the connecting shaft 901 on the worm gear 902 are driven to rotate. Through the rotation of the connecting shaft 901, the threaded rod 803 is driven to rotate. During the rotation of the threaded rod 803, through the meshing transmission between the threaded rod 803 and the threaded sleeve 802 and the sliding guiding action of the two groups of mounting rods 804, the lifted platform 601 moves upward after being stressed. During the upward movement of the lifted platform 601, the support plate 602 and the sliding seat 603 are driven to move upward synchronously. Through the upward movement of the support plate 602 and the sliding seat 603, the distances from the connection point of the sliding seat 603 and the support plate 602 to the connection point of the connecting plate 503 and the rack 302 and the end of the connecting rod 501 are adjusted, making the length of L1 greater than L2 (see Figure 10 ). At this time, it is a laborious support lever, making it more laborious in the later stage of stepping on the clutch. A greater force needs to be applied for the same stepping displacement, forcibly reducing the separation speed. At the same time, through the resistance feedback, the driver is reminded that "it has been completely separated" to avoid over-operation. Through this process, the impact load is suppressed, and damage to the core components of the clutch such as the release fork 104 and the release bearing 103 caused by gravity stepping is avoided, ensuring the high-stability use of the direct-connected ditcher clutch.
