[0002] A corn harvester generally includes a ear header, a straw header, a large elevator, a peeling machine, a grass bin, a grain bin, a rotary tiller, a cab and other devices. There are a large number of transmission components between each device and the engine and between each device, resulting in a very complex spatial structure of the harvester body. The existing walking system of the harvester adopts a traditional mechanical transmission structure and drives the walking in a mechanical transmission manner.

[0003] The characteristics of the existing four-wheel drive of corn harvesters are that if the diameters of the front and rear tires change, after the four-wheel drive is combined, due to the difference in the linear speeds of the front and rear tires, when the four-wheel drive mode is used, the speed ratios of the front and rear tires will be different. Because the rotational speeds are different and on the same shaft, the gearboxes of the front and rear wheels will exert force on each other, ultimately causing the temperature of the gearbox to be too high and resulting in damage to the gearbox. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a four-wheel drive gearbox mechanism for a corn harvester, which can effectively prevent the temperature of the gearbox from being too high and make the gearbox not easily damaged by setting a gearbox component, so as to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0012] Furthermore, connecting rods are installed on both groups of the second mounting blocks, and one ends of both groups of the connecting rods are respectively slidably connected to both groups of the first mounting blocks.

[0013] Furthermore, a first positioning block and a second positioning block are slidably connected to both groups of the connecting rods, and both groups of the first positioning blocks are respectively installed on both groups of the first mounting blocks.

[0014] Furthermore, nuts are threadedly connected to both groups of the connecting rods, and both groups of the nuts are respectively located between both groups of the second positioning blocks and the second mounting blocks.

Specific embodiments

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a four-wheel drive transmission mechanism for a corn harvester. It includes a transmission assembly 100. One end of the transmission assembly 100 is installed with a rear drive shaft assembly 200. One end of the rear drive shaft assembly 200 away from the transmission assembly 100 is installed with a rear differential assembly 300. Two groups of rear wheels 400 are installed on the rear differential assembly 300. The other end of the transmission assembly 100 is installed with a front drive shaft assembly 500. One end of the front drive shaft assembly 500 away from the transmission assembly 100 is installed with a front differential assembly 600. Two groups of front wheels 700 are installed on the front differential assembly 600. An adjustment assembly is installed on the transmission assembly 100;

[0026] The transmission assembly 100 includes a first mounting bracket 110 and a second mounting bracket 120. A first pulley 111 is rotatably connected to the first mounting bracket 110, and a second pulley 121 is rotatably connected to the second mounting bracket 120. The first pulley 111 and the second pulley 121 are connected by a belt drive. The first pulley 111 is mounted on the front drive shaft assembly 500, and the second pulley 121 is mounted on the rear drive shaft assembly 200.

[0027] The front wheels 700 and the rear wheels 400 are of different sizes. When there is a speed difference between the front wheels 700 and the rear wheels 400 during walking, due to slight slippage during the belt drive, the slippage is utilized to buffer the gap caused by the different linear speeds, and the heat dissipation is also fast. Thus, it prevents the transmission from overheating, making it not easy for the transmission to be damaged. Moreover, the structure of the belt drive is simple, saving costs and being convenient for maintenance.

[0028] A first connecting block 112 is mounted on the first mounting bracket 110, and a second connecting block 122 is mounted on the second mounting bracket 120. The second connecting block 122 is slidably connected to the first connecting block 112.

[0029] By providing the first connecting block 112 and the second connecting block 122, when it is necessary to adjust the distance between the first pulley 111 and the second pulley 121, by adjusting the movement of the second connecting block 122 within the first connecting block 112, the first pulley 111 and the second pulley 121 can be adjusted, and the first mounting bracket 110 and the second mounting bracket 120 are connected to each other.

[0030] The adjusting assembly includes two groups of first mounting blocks 131 and two groups of second mounting blocks 130. The two groups of first mounting blocks 131 are both mounted on the first connecting block 112, and the two groups of second mounting blocks 130 are both mounted on the second connecting block 122.

[0031] Connecting rods 132 are mounted on the two groups of second mounting blocks 130. One ends of the two groups of connecting rods 132 are respectively slidably connected to the two groups of first mounting blocks 131. By connecting the first mounting blocks 131 and the second mounting blocks 130 through the connecting rods 132, when the second mounting blocks 130 move, the connecting rods 132 slide within the first mounting blocks 131.

[0032] First positioning blocks 133 and second positioning blocks 134 are slidably connected to the two groups of connecting rods 132. The two groups of first positioning blocks 133 are respectively mounted on the two groups of first mounting blocks 131.

[0033] Nuts 135 are threadedly connected to the two groups of connecting rods 132. The two groups of nuts 135 are respectively located between the two groups of second positioning blocks 134 and the second mounting blocks 130.

[0034] Two sets of the connecting rods 132 are sleeved with springs 136. One ends of the two sets of springs 136 are respectively installed on the two first positioning blocks 133, and the other ends of the two sets of springs 136 are respectively installed on the two second positioning blocks 134. By arranging the springs 136, under the elastic action of the springs 136, the first positioning block 133 and the second positioning block 134 are extruded, so that the first positioning block 133 and the second positioning block 134 respectively drive the first mounting block 131 and the second mounting block 130 to move, and the first mounting block 131 and the second mounting block 130 respectively drive the first mounting bracket 110 and the second mounting bracket 120 to move, adjusting and increasing the distance between the first pulley 111 and the second pulley 121. Since the first pulley 111 and the second pulley 121 are connected by a belt, the belt is stretched, the tension of the belt is adjusted, so that the belt can be stably installed on the first pulley 111 and the second pulley 121, thereby improving the stability of the belt during use. By adjusting the position of the adjusting nut 135, the elasticity of the spring 136 can be adjusted, increasing or decreasing the tensile force on the belt, so that the belt is not easily broken due to excessive elastic force of the spring 136 during use, and at the same time, it can also ensure that the tension of the belt can be kept stable and is not easily detached.

[0035] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
