Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to a steering device of a tractor, and particularly relates to a hydraulic front steering mechanism of a tractor chassis. Background Art
[0002] As a heavy machinery widely used in the agricultural field, the design of the steering system of a tractor is crucial for improving operation efficiency and ensuring operation safety. However, the steering angles of many tractors on the current market are relatively small, which to a certain extent limits their flexibility and practicability in complex tillage environments. In some occasions where large-angle steering is required for effective operation, such as narrow fields, irregular terrains or areas where fine operations are needed, this steering system seems inadequate.
[0003] Due to the limitation of the steering angle, a tractor may encounter obstacles when performing certain complex tillage tasks, and even need to repeatedly adjust its position to complete the operation, which not only reduces work efficiency but also increases the complexity of operation. More seriously, if the operator adopts improper driving methods to force the steering, safety accidents may occur, such as the tractor overturning, colliding with obstacles or causing harm to the operator himself. This situation is quite dangerous in the use of agricultural machinery and requires sufficient attention.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a technology in the prior art to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
