[0038] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, this embodiment provides an impulse yield measuring device 1 for a combine harvester, including a detection panel 11, a cantilever 12, an elastic member 14, a detection circuit (not shown), and a housing 17;
[0039] The detection circuit is arranged in the housing 17 and is used to detect the deformation of the elastic member 14, convert it into a voltage signal, and then process it into a digital signal by a processor and display it to the driver as a reference for the actual harvesting amount.
[0040] The housing 17 is provided with a mounting portion for mounting the impulse yield measuring device 1 in the grain elevator 2; the mounting portion usually adopts a fixing plate 18, and the impulse yield measuring device 1 is mounted on the inner wall of the grain elevator 2 through a plurality of bolts.
[0041] On one side of the housing 17 facing the direction from which the grains come, a U-shaped base 16 is provided. The elastic member 14 is in the form of a plate structure or a beam structure and is suspended at the open end of the base 16.
[0042] In this embodiment, the elastic member 14 preferably adopts a beam structure. One side edge of the elastic member 14 is mounted on the base 16 through a second pressing plate 15 with a nut, and the other side edge is arranged on one side of the base 16 close to the fixing plate 18 and close to the detection circuit, so as to transmit the deformation information of the elastic member 14 to the detection circuit.
[0043] The side of the detection panel 11 facing the direction from which the grains come is an arc surface for receiving the impact of the grains. Specifically, the side of the detection panel 11 close to the inner wall of the grain elevator 2 is a straight plate, and from the direction close to the inner wall of the grain elevator 2 to the direction away from the inner wall of the grain elevator 2, the surface of the detection panel 11 gradually bends towards the direction from which the grains come.
[0044] The detection panel 11 adopts an arc surface, which can receive the impact of the grains as much and as comprehensively as possible, thereby improving the accuracy of detection.
[0045] The back surface of the detection panel 11 is connected to one end of the cantilever 12, and the other end of the cantilever 12 is connected to the surface of the elastic member 14 in a substantially perpendicular relationship, so as to transmit the impact from the grains with the highest efficiency.
[0046] In this embodiment, the cantilever 12 is a straight plate, and the width of the cantilever 12 is not less than 1 / 3 of the width of the detection panel 11, so it has good rigidity, can provide sufficient support force for the detection panel 11, and can accurately and quickly transmit the impact force received by the detection panel 11 to the elastic member 14.
[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the detection panel 11 is a nylon plate, which has good hardness and wear resistance, can improve the accuracy of the measurement result, and can extend the service life of the impulse yield measuring device 1.
[0048] In this embodiment, the width of the detection panel 11 is about 15 cm, the arc edge length is also about 15 cm, and the thickness of the detection panel 11 is about 1 cm. This size can meet the installation requirements and the need to receive the impact of the grains, making the detection result more accurate.
[0049] In a preferred embodiment, the cantilever 12 is connected to the central region of the elastic member 14 through a plurality of first pressing plates 13 with nuts, which can make the deformation amount of the elastic member 14 proportional to the impact force received by the detection panel 11, thereby improving the accuracy of the measurement.
[0050] In this embodiment, the length of the cantilever 12 is about 8 cm and the thickness is about 1 cm, which can ensure the accuracy of the force transmission.
[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the housing 17 is made of ABS plastic material, which has good wear resistance and insulation properties.
[0052] In this embodiment, a harvester is also provided. Specifically, the impulse yield measuring device 1 is arranged at the top turning point of the grain elevator 2. The detection panel 11 of the impulse yield measuring device 1 faces the direction from which the grains come. The scraper 3 of the grain elevator 2 can transport the grain kernels to the top of the grain elevator 2 and throw them onto the detection panel 11, so that the impulse yield measuring device 1 can measure the grain quantity in real time.
[0053] In order to throw as many grains as possible onto the detection panel 11, when the scraper 3 of the grain elevator 2 is at the position closest to the edge of the detection panel 11, the gap between the scraper 3 and the edge of the detection panel 11 should be as small as possible, generally not exceeding 5 cm.
[0054] When the combine harvester harvests crops, the impulse yield measuring device 1 can detect the grains conveyed from the grain elevator 2. The grains are thrown onto the detection panel 11 along a parabolic path and cause the elastic member 14 to deform, so that the detection circuit outputs a corresponding voltage value. The detection panel 11 adopts an arc-shaped surface, which can receive the impacts of grains as much as possible and comprehensively. The cantilever 12 is located on the back of the detection panel 11, does not occupy the space of the receiving surface of the detection panel 11, improves the space utilization rate of the detection panel 11, and the cantilever 12 located on the back of the detection panel 11 can better transmit the impact force of the grains, thereby making the detection result more accurate.
