Obviously, the accompanying drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, without creative efforts, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings, and other embodiments can also be obtained.
[0029] See Figure 1 , this embodiment provides a corn harvester header. A front cutter roller disposed on the frame 50 cuts corn straws. A picker box disposed on the frame 50 drives a reel chain and a stalk puller roller to pick ears. A cob conveyor chute disposed on the frame 50 conveys corn cobs to the rear of the header. See Figure 2 , the header is provided with a first transmission shaft 30. The first transmission shaft 30 is connected to the engine of the corn harvester and provides driving power for the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute on the frame 50. To drive the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute to work, a first transmission mechanism 10 and a second transmission mechanism 20 are provided to drive the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute. The first transmission mechanism 10 and the second transmission mechanism 20 respectively drive a set of front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute to work. The first transmission mechanism 10 and the second transmission mechanism 20 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the header frame 50. Among them, the first transmission mechanism 10 is arranged on the side close to the engine to provide driving power for the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute on the side close to the engine; the second transmission mechanism 20 is arranged on the side far from the engine to provide driving power for the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute on the side far from the engine. The power provided by the engine is transmitted from the side where the first transmission mechanism 10 is located, through the first transmission shaft 30, to the second transmission mechanism 20. The setting of the first transmission shaft 30 realizes the synchronous transmission of the first transmission mechanism 10 and the second transmission mechanism 20, and the power of the engine is evenly distributed to the first transmission mechanism 10 and the second transmission mechanism 20 on both sides of the header. By adopting such a symmetric setting of the two-side transmission mechanisms, the transmission stability of the header can be improved, and the working reliability of the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute arranged on the header can be ensured. The power on both sides of the first transmission shaft 30 is evenly distributed, and the transmission effects of the picker boxes, cob conveyor chutes, and front cutter rollers on both sides are the same. In the case of a failure in the power transmission on one side, the front cutter roller, picker box, and cob conveyor chute on the other side can still work normally, reducing the impact caused by the failure.
[0030] See Figure 3, the first transmission mechanism 10 is connected to the first transmission shaft 30. The first transmission mechanism 10 is provided with a first pulley 101, and the first pulley 101 is sleeved on one end of the first transmission shaft 30. The second transmission mechanism 20 is provided with a second pulley 201, and the second pulley 201 is sleeved on the other end of the first transmission shaft 30. A main pulley 301 connected to the engine is sleeved on the first transmission shaft 30. The main pulley 301 is arranged on the side close to the first pulley 101. The main pulley 301 is connected to the engine output end. When the main pulley 301 rotates, it drives the first transmission shaft 30 to rotate. Further, the first pulley 101 and the second pulley 201 arranged on the first transmission shaft 30 rotate. When the first pulley 101 rotates, it provides driving force to the first transmission mechanism 10. When the second pulley 201 rotates, it provides driving force to the second transmission mechanism 20.
[0031] To transmit power to the ear picking box, the ear conveyor trough, and the front hob, a second transmission shaft 102 is arranged in the first transmission mechanism 10. The second transmission shaft 102 distributes power to the ear picking box, the ear conveyor trough, and the front hob. The second transmission mechanism 20 is provided with a third transmission shaft 202. The third transmission shaft 202 distributes power to the ear picking box, the ear conveyor trough, and the front hob. Specifically, both the second transmission shaft 102 and the third transmission shaft 202 are parallel to the setting direction of the first transmission shaft 30. On the side of the second transmission shaft 102 close to the first pulley 101, a third pulley 103 is arranged. The first pulley 101 is in transmission connection with the third pulley 103. When the first pulley 101 rotates, it drives the third pulley 103 to rotate. Further, power is transmitted to the second transmission shaft 102 to drive the ear picking box, the ear conveyor trough, and the front hob arranged on the second transmission shaft 102 to work. Similarly, a fourth pulley 203 is arranged on the side of the third transmission shaft 202 close to the second pulley 201. When the second pulley 201 rotates, it drives the fourth pulley 203 to rotate. The fourth pulley 203 arranged at one end of the third transmission shaft 202 drives the third transmission shaft 202 to rotate, transmits power to the third transmission shaft 202, and drives the ear picking box, the ear conveyor trough, and the front hob arranged on the third transmission shaft 202 to work.
[0032] In the embodiment, a first sprocket 104 is arranged on the second transmission shaft 102. The first sprocket 104 is connected to the first conveying trough driving sprocket. The first sprocket 104 is sleeved on one side of the second transmission shaft 102 close to the third pulley 103 and rotates coaxially with the second transmission shaft 102, thereby transmitting power to the first conveying trough sprocket to drive the first conveying trough to work. Similarly, a second sprocket 204 is arranged on the third transmission shaft 202. The second sprocket 204 is arranged on one side of the third transmission shaft 202 close to the fourth pulley 203 and rotates coaxially with the third transmission shaft 202, transmitting power to the second conveying trough sprocket to drive the second conveying trough to work. It should be noted that during the process of driving the ear conveying trough chain harrow to lift, since the ear conveying trough is generally arranged at the inner side of the middle position of the cutting table, when the power is distributed from the first transmission shaft 30 to the second transmission shaft 102 and the third transmission shaft 202, the first sprocket 104 and the second sprocket 204 are arranged first to provide power to the first ear conveying trough and the second ear conveying trough. There must be a height difference between the ear conveying trough and the cutting table surface to form the structure of the trough. Therefore, in the first transmission mechanism 10 and the second transmission mechanism 20, only the ear conveying trough adopts the form of sprocket transmission to save space. Also because the ear conveying trough must be arranged inside the cutting table, in the form of sprocket transmission, the chain is easier to replace than in the form of pulley transmission.
[0033] The other end of the second transmission shaft 102 is sleeved with a fifth pulley 105. The fifth pulley 105 is connected to the first front cutter bar driving pulley 106 to provide driving power to the first front cutter bar. Correspondingly, the other end of the third transmission shaft 202 is sleeved with a sixth pulley 205. The sixth pulley 205 is connected to the second front cutter bar driving pulley 206 to provide driving power to the second front cutter bar.
[0034] A seventh pulley 107 is further sleeved on one side of the second transmission shaft 102 close to the first front cutter bar driving pulley 106. The seventh pulley 107 is connected to the first ear box driving pulley 108 to drive the first ear box to work; similarly, an eighth pulley 207 is sleeved on one side of the third transmission shaft 202 close to the second front cutter bar driving pulley 206. The eighth pulley 207 is connected to the second ear box driving pulley 208 to drive the second ear box to work, thereby realizing the work of the pulling roller and the reel chain.
[0035] Preferably, the fifth pulley 105 sleeved on the other end of the second transmission shaft 102 and the sixth pulley 205 sleeved on the third transmission shaft 202 are double-row pulleys. The fifth pulley 105 can be connected to the first front cutter driving pulley 106 and the first ear box driving pulley 108 at the same time; the sixth pulley 205 can be connected to the second front cutter driving pulley 206 and the first ear box driving pulley 108 at the same time, so that the first front cutter and the first ear box, and the second front cutter and the second ear box work synchronously. Since during the corn harvesting process, the cutting of corn stalks by the front cutter, the pulling of the ears on the stalks by the pulling roller, and the feeding of the stalks by the reel chain are synchronous, the use of double-row pulleys can ensure the synchronous transmission of the ear box and the front cutter. The form of double-row pulleys is selected, which not only ensures the synchronous drive of the front cutter and the ear box, but also ensures the reliability of power transmission and prevents idling.
[0036] Preferably, the cutting table is further provided with a first tensioning device 109 and a second tensioning device 209. The first tensioning device 109 is connected to the first transmission mechanism 10, and the second tensioning device 209 is connected to the second transmission mechanism 20; the first tensioning device 109 is respectively provided with a first tensioning wheel 1091, a second tensioning wheel 1092, a third tensioning wheel 1093, and a fourth tensioning wheel 1094, which are respectively used to tension the drive belt between the first pulley 101 and the third pulley 103, the first ear conveyor chain, the first front cutter drive belt, and the first ear box drive belt. Correspondingly, the second tensioning device 209 is respectively provided with a fifth tensioning wheel 2091, a sixth tensioning wheel 2092, a seventh tensioning wheel 2093, and an eighth tensioning wheel 2094, which are respectively used to tension the drive belt between the second pulley 201 and the fourth pulley 203, the second ear conveyor chain, the second front cutter drive belt, and the second ear box drive belt.
