Since the side of the air guide cover of the radiator assembly is usually under negative pressure, these straw, bract debris, etc. will be adsorbed to the air guide cover side of the radiator assembly, causing the air guide cover to be blocked, thereby affecting the cooling of the engine and the hydraulic system. Seriously, it will lead to problems such as high temperature of the engine and hydraulic system, and even cause the machine to stop due to reasons; at present, some engine manufacturers in the market also use reverse fans, but the cost is relatively high, and it is not applicable to models with radiators arranged in other positions;

[0018] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: A hydraulic control reversible cooling fan mechanism for a corn harvester mainly consists of a radiator assembly, a hydraulic system, and a cooling fan reverse control assembly. Among them, the radiator assembly includes a radiator main body 1, a cooling fan assembly 2, a fan bracket 3, a bearing seat 9, and a radiator air guide cover 10. The hydraulic system includes a hydraulic oil tank 4, a hydraulic oil pump 5, a hydraulic control valve 6, a hydraulic motor 7, and several oil pipes. One end of the cooling fan reverse control assembly is connected to the hydraulic control valve 6, which can clean the debris of corn straws and husks adsorbed on the side of the air guide cover without stopping the machine, improving the harvesting efficiency, reducing the failures of the power system and the hydraulic system, and increasing the service life of the whole machine.

[0020] The fan bracket 3 is fixed on the radiator housing. The cooling fan assembly 2 is installed on the fan bracket 3 through the bearing seat 9 and can rotate freely. When it rotates counterclockwise facing the cooling fan, the air flows towards the fan bracket 3 side. Conversely, the air flows towards the radiator air guide cover 10 side.

[0021] The hydraulic oil tank 4 is provided with an oil inlet and an oil return port. The hydraulic oil pump 5 is provided with a suction port and a pressure oil port. The suction port is connected to the hydraulic oil tank 4 through a pipeline, and the pressure oil port is connected to the oil inlet of the hydraulic control valve 6 through a pipeline. The working oil port of the hydraulic control valve 6 is connected to the hydraulic motor 7 through a pipeline, and the oil return port of the hydraulic control valve 6 is connected to the hydraulic oil tank 4 through a pipeline. The hydraulic motor 7 is fixed on the heat dissipation fan bearing seat 9, and the power output shaft of the hydraulic motor 7 is connected to the heat dissipation fan through a spline shaft in the bearing seat 9.

[0022] One end of the heat dissipation fan reverse control assembly is connected to the hydraulic control valve 6. The hydraulic control valve 6 is used to control the flow direction of the hydraulic oil so that the hydraulic motor 7 rotates forward or reversely. There are multiple channels in the body of the hydraulic control valve 6, and two of the multiple channels are respectively a forward channel and a reverse channel. When the operating handle 8 of the heat dissipation fan reverse control assembly is not manipulated, facing the heat dissipation fan, the heat dissipation fan assembly 2 rotates counterclockwise, and the side of the radiator air deflector 10 is under negative pressure. When the operating handle 8 of the heat dissipation fan reverse control assembly is manipulated, at this time, the flow direction of the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic control valve 6 changes, the hydraulic motor 7 rotates reversely, and drives the heat dissipation fan assembly 2 to rotate reversely. At this time, facing the heat dissipation fan, the heat dissipation fan assembly 2 rotates clockwise, and the side of the radiator air deflector 10 is under positive pressure. Under normal circumstances, facing the heat dissipation fan, the heat dissipation fan assembly 2 rotates counterclockwise, and the side of the air deflector of the radiator assembly is under negative pressure.

[0023] Working principle: When the corn harvester is harvesting, once it is found that there are a lot of adsorbed debris such as corn straws and husks on the side of the radiator air deflector 10, which affects heat dissipation, the operator can manipulate the handle of the heat dissipation fan reverse control assembly at any time to reverse the heat dissipation fan. At this time, the flow direction of the air changes, and the debris of corn straws and husks adsorbed on the side of the radiator air deflector 10 will fall instantly. Then, when the operating handle 8 of the heat dissipation fan reverse control assembly is released, the heat dissipation fan will return to its original rotation direction, realizing the cleaning of the debris such as corn straws and husks on the side of the radiator air deflector 10 without stopping the machine.

[0024] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention within the knowledge scope of those of ordinary skill in the art.
