DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following is combined with Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 6The principles and features of the present invention are described, and the examples given are only used to explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0020] A corn harvester hydraulic brake system includes a brake pedal 1, a brake pump 2 and a brake assembly; the bottom end of the brake pedal 1 is connected to the movable end of the brake pump 2, the oil outlet 4 of the brake pump 2 is connected to the brake assembly through an oil pipe 5, and the brake assembly includes a first brake unit 301 and a second brake unit 302, the first brake unit 301 is connected to a transmission shaft 6, and the second brake unit 302 is connected to a front drive axle 7. By arranging the brake assembly on the transmission shaft 6 and the front drive axle 7 at the same time, the braking force can be distributed more evenly, especially in uneven or slippery field conditions, such balanced force distribution helps to improve braking efficiency and enhance handling.

[0021] The first brake unit 301 is close to the rear drive axle 8 and includes a first brake disc 3101 and a first brake pad 3102. The brake pump 2 can drive the first brake pad 3102 to contact or leave the first brake disc 3101. The surface of the first brake pad 3102 is connected to the first brake cylinder 12.

[0022] The second brake unit 302 includes a second brake disc 3201 and a second brake pad 3202. The brake pump 2 can drive the second brake pad 3202 to contact or leave the second brake disc 3201. The second brake pad 3202 is connected to the surface of the second brake cylinder 13.

[0023] The oil inlet 9 of the brake pump 2 is connected to the brake oil pot 10 through the oil pipe 5. The brake oil pot 10 is connected above the driving platform 11. The brake oil pot 10 continuously supplies stable brake fluid to the brake pump 2 to ensure the smooth output of braking force.

[0024] The transmission shaft 6 is connected to the front drive axle 7 and the first brake unit 301 by a universal joint spline shaft.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] When braking is needed, the driver steps on the brake pedal 1, and the brake pump 2 quickly presses the brake oil into the oil pipe 5. The oil outlet 4 of the brake pump 2 is connected to the first brake unit 301 and the second brake unit 302 through a three-way connector. The first brake cylinder 12 is pushed by the hydraulic force to push the first brake pad 3102, giving a clamping force to the first brake disc 3101. Because the first brake disc 3101 is installed on the transmission shaft 6 close to the rear drive axle 8, it provides braking force to the left and right half-axles of the rear drive axle 8 through the rear axle spline shaft, forcing the left and right half-axles to slow down until the front tire stops rolling; the working principle of the second brake unit 302 is the same as above, and the second brake cylinder 13 is pushed by the hydraulic force to push the second brake pad 3202, giving a clamping force to the second brake disc 3201. Because the second brake disc 3201 is connected to the front drive axle 7, it provides braking force to the left and right half-axles of the front drive axle 7, forcing the left and right half-axles to slow down until the rear tire stops rolling, so that the tire and the road surface have a greater friction, and finally the purpose of parking is achieved, and the braking ends.

[0027] The corn harvester is provided with a first brake unit 301 and a second brake unit 302 on the transmission shaft 6 and the front drive axle 7 respectively, and the braking is performed by a single brake pump 2, which not only improves the braking efficiency and safety, but also simplifies the system structure, reduces the cost, and improves the convenience of operation and the reliability of the machine.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
